Why are there such long gaps between update preview posts?

[Enaula]

35 min? atm 1h15 before end XD. And detail is On^^

[Malacite]

Yeah details are up, mostly very good things but couple of WTFs:

The following NPCs have been repositioned:

Northern San d'Oria: Jeanvirgaud (L-10) (*Players teleporting from outposts will still arrive at the usual location.), Explorer Moogle (L-10), Synergy Engineer (F-3), Synergy Enthusiast (F-3), both Synergy Furnaces (F-3)
Port Bastok: Synergy Engineer (I-7), both Synergy Furnaces (J-7)
Windurst Walls: Burute-Sorute (H-10)

WHY?!

The following bonus effects now activate when the corsair ability Phantom Roll produces an XI:

* The recast time for Phantom Roll will reset.
* While under the effect of an XI roll, the recast time for Phantom Roll will now be reduced to thirty seconds.
* While under the effect of an XI roll, busting will not reduce the amount of rolls that rollers can place on themselves.

Incredibly underwhelming compared to the old version that made them double in duration. I was really hoping they would add a unique effect or maybe crank up the performance bonus on the rolls themselves. This is the only aspect of the update that I am extremely disappointed in.

IDK, The Busting not effecting maximum Rolls and recast time being cut by 50%... Seems pretty nice.

But i think it still poses the same problem as the last update to it, it messes up a COR's "routine"? Eh, Im no COR so i don't really care that much :X

[Paksenarrion]

I didn't understand COR either, but my friend who plays COR let me know it wasn't nice. I think that's one of the reasons that we NEED the preview posts, so that we can voice our opinions on big game-changing deals like that one.

Probably to give CORs a chance to come out again?

Since they ranked, what, last in the most leveled job in the census?

[sruon]

I expected something like special effects on XI, not this shit.

Also, really hoping the major update has meaningful content because that one definitly doesn't.

Dear Square-Enix Final Fantasy XI Developers,

Mind not making it so obvious that you have a stupid crazy obsession love towards Samurai? There are 19 other jobs that are starving in the broom closet, mind letting them have some of the porridge, I mean Dragoon and Ranger ranked the lowest in pure Melee Damage Dealing jobs in the last Census. If you have a Census why not use it? I mean I thought that is what it was meant for anyway? Find out what people aren't playing, buff that job up to the desired job of choice, people have to go level that up and get gear for it means that people will be playing for longer which means more coin in your pocket. Or is that basic concept too hard to understand?

Wishing you did a better job at this update,
OMEGA_HACK

PS: wth man?! Why does the Corsair update suck so much donkey balls? Really? Open the floor to suggestions when you decided to implement that crap instead? You understand that royally kicks us in the balls and screws with the "rotation" of our JOB ABILITY, not spells so it makes it a timer issue...My god did we not say that enough in the forums? Sheesh!

Until the game dynamic comes out of Abyssea, COR will continue to be shelved.

The high cost of the class and low abundance of ammo are also contributing factors.

Anyone else notice that only PS2 doesn't get new icons? o.O

I mean, they didn't get the new font either...
