Where is 1.20B, Is 1.21 going to be late?

Looking at the pattern in the last few patches I'm guessing we will see 1.21 bumped from early February to mid February for balance adjustments and whatnot. While I'm super excited for the patch, at the same time I would rather it be a good working patch and not rushed out to meet a deadline.

The good news is that they have really been on the ball with at most a week delay in the patch, (not too bad really). That being said, and not knowing their development cycle I can't say if 1.20b is going to delay 1.21, but it might to some degree.

I guess the trick is to enjoy the game as best you can, look forward to the future, and try to not let delays effect you. It will arrive when it does, and hopefully we'll start to get that information shortly. :)

Wish we would get some solid information. I would enjoy some lore or even a pic of a mog house. Seems like the update should be right around the corner and devs have not been putting out any juicy bits lately.

you think people are annoyed with late patches now, just wait till they delay 2.0

So true, with their habit of pushing things back, 2.0 will be 2014 or something absurd lol..

what are you talking about, ps3 version released right on schedule,lol.

As long as 2.0 comes out on time as planned I'm OK with the delays on current... although faster/on time is better :D

YoshiP put in the 2.0 document 1.21 early Feb so we'll see lol

For the person who said we are being left in the dark: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/31373
Posting info like this any earlier would just be repeating themselves. Expect an updated version of the table soon.

Patch Day Prediction: Thursday 1st March 2012.

Now that 2.0 is coming, delays/content of patches is not as important as it used to be.

So I am confused. Are the white nights the people that want the game to do well? And trolls are the people that hate this game but play it anyway? Or did I get that backwards?

Could care less when 1.20b drops, if ever. Just hoping 1.21 stays on track

One could argue that, now that we are paying for this game, delays should be seen as MORE important and harmful to the community than before, not less. I mean, a patch delay here, then a few more there, pretty soon 2.0 gets pushed back until the middle of 2013. No big deal though, right?

Its a tough spot to be in, most MMO's dont have half the community waiting anxiously for the next patch to come because they are busy playing a game with plenty to do.

I predict 1.20b coming out the end of this week and I think it's a safe assumption to expect 1.21 in mid to late February. As far as this resulting in a late 2.0 release? It is very likely that 2.0 will be delayed, but it wouldn't be over these acutely delayed patches.

Going into the spring, patches will be spaced out a lot further from each other and the main focus, I'm assuming, will be on their 2.0 client. During that time is what will determine a delay for 2.0. Not this patch's possible delay. Hardly anything to do with it.
