They better either add more content to the current patch cycle, or shorten the current patch cycle by a month and keep the same amount of patch content. 2.5 was a massive cut scene patch because the time they had to 3.0 didn't allow them to finish off 2.0's story in normal patches and honestly there wasn't much else to 2.5 outside of WoD and the normal 3 dungeons, and end to Hildibrand. The Odin trial was a let down, I actually found Steps of Faith pre-nerf to be a lot harder and even then that was pretty easy. I was actually hoping for a EX version of "The Chrysalis" or of Steps of Faith but that never happened.Quote:

I'm just saying, the trend for MMO Xpac development seems to be a pretty fast and loose dev cycle. -
08-09-2015, 12:57 PMDuelleThe only good things to come from the expansion were the inclusion of Gladiator Stance for prot warriors (allowing them to DPS while using sword & shield) and fixing Ret Paladins so they feel like paladins again instead of holy rogues.Quote:

Oh yes please bring back REAL boat rides like from XI (sorry - rose tinted specs) I loved when someone would be fishing and then whoops caught a monster better help him out.

08-09-2015, 03:42 PMDaraliiThe last WoW expansion(which I think was $60 versus the normal $40?) added a selfie tool, Twitter integration, a daily hub, and one raid. That was its entire patch cycle.Quote:

I hope they take their time and keep making expansions good, that is all I care about. We need the time anyway to level all the jobs and crafting/gathering jobs as well. I think 1.5 years is a good cycle to have. Sooner would be great as long as the content would not "slip" in quality somehow and if they try and rush I am very afraid that this could happen.
I want to go somewhere we have "barely" heard of in the game so far and for it to be a really nice surprise. So many people already knew of Ishgard and surrounding areas that is was not really a surprise so much to them. -
08-09-2015, 04:00 PMAmiantosMost likely because they had to go straight into the dev cycle for the next expac and if 14 starts to go this way I'm gonna have to say I'll be jumping ship.Quote:

If 4.0 isn't about Ala Mhigo, I'll be surprised. Concept art of the area exists, and if I recall correctly, I believe Yoshi said it might be the focus of a future expansion. Could also be fitting as once its liberated, it can become the fifth city state that players can visit.
We'll just have to see where the rest of Heavensward takes us first. -
