6.2 Patch Notes

Great list! I love that officer outfit whenever I see men wearing it and I can't wait to have it.

Good point. Then i have question: What is Island Sanctuary and what purpose/feature is entailed? Its not housing, its not an quest filled area, its not gardening in the sense of build or create something of value. So what is it ? Its disconnected from the rest of the game for what purpose ? This smells like SE does something the players wanted but in all the wrong directions or not ?

How about pure fun for its own sake?

Some actual good things and more SE backpedaling. Bit of a mixed bag.

"Oh we can't do instanced housing" as they release Island Sanctuary.

"Oh we don't want you using any mods" as they add in a feature that a UI mod has had for god knows how long.

But hey, gender locked gear got fixed so that's gotta count for something.

Even got some content that'll last more than a few hours at most.

Sounds like a great place to chill and have some relaxed fun.

Hope it lives up to the hype and hope it is a good time sink. I wish the content could be shared with alts from the perspective of actually using the Island but even visiting is better than nothing. Sounds like people can visit without having to be directly on your friends list if i understood the patch notes correctly.

Possible, but all we have seen so far are a few vids and reviews. It could be somthing new. We cannot judge it until its playable. Personally speaking I think it looks fun. Nice new gameplay loop to enjoy and spend time on, though am dissapointed it will not have much of a story it seems. Sound like we will get minion/mount/glam rewards too. It may not be the housing/gardening oppitunity some of us hoped, but then they never said it would be. Plus this is somthing they can hopefully add to as the patchs go on, perhaps even add fetures players want like what I just said and teleportation ect.

I disagree that mods should be seen as the evil SE makes them out to be sometimes, but is it not a good thing to add features that people wanted into the base UI? Especially for us console users who do not even have access to mods in the first place.

I really want that hat for my Samurai. :/

I'm glad it's still locked I don't wanna see guys look like this. A guy who would wear this would know they look stupid and wear it as a gag RP.

Oh I agree 100%. Don't get me wrong. I just think it's interesting that they choose to ban people for using mods but decide to put in features of a mod. Kinda hypocritical if you ask me.

Some job changes are so good and the SGE Holos buff is lovely :D
