Version Update coming soon?

There isn't really "a lot less than normal." there's tons of information in those posts.

Posts with little splash pictures on the official website may be lacking, but since they just link to the forums now, which already has plenty of information, I don't really think it's a big deal. Just my opinion.

It's going down this Monday http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/pol...ews21043.shtml

1:30 downtime what? Thanks test server, I guess?

Looking at this, they're actually giving us what they promised.

Not sure if troll. There's at least 4-5 items on there we still haven't received updates on.

I think the length of the update (90 minutes) shows us how little new content this update will contain.

Or they ironed out last minute testing due to their test server and don't need extra time to make sure stuff wor- nah can't bring logic in here almost made a fool of myself D:

The time the servers are down has absolutely zero to do with the contents of the update. Both on the server and on the client, its just a software patch. The reason maintenance usually take hours is because of the work they do that is not related to a patch of the game.

Why are people talking as if we don't know what's in the patch anyway? Anyone on the test server will know most of it, and the threads in the testing-in-progress section of the forums cover most of it.

Really. So it's just a coincidence that after 9 years of several hours long updates that the test server comes online and suddenly we're looking at 1:30 downtime. Coincidences are funny like that. They pop up at the heckest of times. Makes people think. Forms conspiracy theories. All that good stuff.
