they have 200 people working but half is working on 2.0 so do you want 2.0? or do you want more update for lame 1.0?

It's the 11th of December. We are now 1 day over the "early" december mark, well into mid-december, and we still don't have a date of release. WHat part of that is late November/ early December to you? Of course, your obviously not good at math, so you wouldn't know these things. (you see how that last part made me sound like an ***hole? Thats what it did for you too)

Hello! This is Producer/Director Yoshida.
We have pretty much solidified the date for the release of patch 1.20 for 12/14, but we are still continuing to make final adjustments and stamp out bugs, and I think we should be able to finalize this around tomorrow night. (As long as no critically huge bugs pop up.) Please wait just a bit longer for us to announce a firm date.
To my knowledge there has been no delay stated for that release date.
Couple of things. One, the 14th is not considered "early" december here in the states, its mid december. But because I have no idea how the japanese classify time within each of the months, maybe the 14th is early december for them, so cool, I can get down with that as a possability.
Two, NONE of the links you posted say the 14th anywhere on them. The first link opens up to show a bunch of people bickering about a video that I have no desire to read about, and the two links below them open up to totally blank white screens. I don't doubt that they are trying to get the patch out in a timely manner, rather, I was only pointing out that some of us grow tired of ambiguous talk about future release dates. Have you ever had your cable company or electiric company quote you on when they can be at your house to provide service? They say something like; "we will be there between 10am and 4pm" Then they never show until about 3:59 pm. Thats what SE is like giving patch release dates. While your right that its still sometimes within the time frame quoted, why not just say "it won't be out until the end of december" so that, if we get it earlier, they look like champs instead of a small team fumbeling around at the last minute like they always do?

See now thats funny because while I am sure Yoshi said so in his letter, there still hasn't been any official post from SE stating that "at this time we will be implimenting patch 1.20" So until that happens, why not go and stand with former president bush on the USS Abraham Lincoln? You can both dance around under the big MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner. Come back and rub it in on the 14th by all means, if thats when it drops. But the things Yoshi says aren't always the things that actually happen.
Also, the term "pretty much" in that statement you quoted contradicts the desire for concrete facts. Its ambiguous language used on purpose so that, should something unexpected happen that changes that date, he has a little wiggle room. Me saying something like "I have PRETTY MUCH finished my term paper" isn't the same as handing in a complete term paper. It could mean, well the papers done but I still have to make a cover sheet and write up a reference page. You see how that works?
since reading is still hard for you

Yoshi mentioned it being the 14th, and it was even translated by one of the reps to English. And I make the 3rd person to vocally state this, meaning more than likely you just didn't notice the post for reasons only you could know.
Also I heard on 30 day months the Japanese consider "early" to be 12:00AM Day 1 to 11:59PM Day 14; "middle" of the month is 12:00AM Day 15 to 11:59PM Day 16; and "late" month is 12:00AM Day 17 to 11:59PM Day 30.
One 31 day months, its basically the same except "early" month runs from 12:00AM Day 1 to 11:59AM Day 15, "middle" is 12:00AM-11:59PM Day 16, and "late" is 12:00AM Day 17 to 11:59PM Day 31.
And let's not get into the month of February!
The latest statement on the release date from this post:
In the last Letter From the Producer, he mentioned a "delay of roughly ten days" pushing 1.20 to mid-December at the latest.Quote:
In today's meetings, we confirmed that patch 1.20 can be released on 12/14 pending balance adjustments to "Good King Moggle Mog XII Cometh!" We will continue to update The Lodestone and release Topics leading up to patch 1.20.
The only remaining task is making final adjustments to the battle balance for the moogle battle! (A video is planned to be released on Friday) Moogle personnel, the monster team, the battle team and the QA team are all working as hard as possible to make their final adjustments, so please hang on a bit longer.
The only thing left to hear is if the balance adjustments will push the date past 12/14, otherwise the patch is dropping Wednesday. Either way, we'll know for sure in three days.
