2.05 Breakdown/Letdown

[Appleh4x]

SE says "hot fix" some people read "patch" instead (maybe they have bad reading comprehension?) and get extremely disappointed. Gloom-doomsday rage-reaction threads on the future of the game pop up within minutes.

Oh it's just another day on the official forums :P

You must be joking... hotfix and patch are almost synonyms. What do you think a hotfix does? It patches the game. Getting real technical, it was a patch and NOT a hotfix, because "hotfix" implies you are doing it to a live server (but they took the servers down to PATCH it.)

Am i the only one who feels dirty and let down by 2.05? Lets go over some facts

The whole --> the number of areas where you can acquire Allagan Tomestones of Philosophy and Mythology will be increased as well as the amount you can acquire. I know most saw it as an increase in the amount of Myth you can get per week. Nope still only 300 a week.
And now lets go over some math here. AK 2.0 = 20 mins for 80/40. AK 2.05 = 35+mins for 100/40. <----How was this a bump in the amount you can get????? Also adding the phil / myth to other dungeons .. sounds good right.. nope. Its still better to just
grind your face off in AK because it still gets you the most for reward vrs time spent. .

There is seriously no satisfying some people. SE gives us more than enough gil now on these raids to cover repair each run, not good enough. SE gives us more tomes and another option to get myth tomes, not good enough.

Well they could just do what everyone actually wanted and raise the cap on myth instead of making the dungeons we are forced to grind actually take longer.

"It was a patch not a hotfix", yet SE used the word hotfix.

what a nice giggle I had just now.

nod and smile folks.. just nod and smile.

Wow, I guess SE has more power over you than you think. Odd, I'm personally not being physically controlled to play this game and/or grind.

Also, raising Myth Cap = People getting AF2 faster = more complaints about lack of things to do/get. So GG there.

We are forced to grind them to get Myth, I should have clarified. Not my fault that SE released an unfinished game with no real objectives post 50 besides artificial difficulty from limited time based gearing

SE has ridiculously bad English skills, if you haven't noticed yet.

And then you would have people complaining that suddenly there are tons of people running around with gear that they had to "work" for. There's always two sides of it. The way it worked out here is people are complaining because they weren't given enough. Seriously...

back on subject:

I wasn't disappointed because it wasn't the 2.1 patch. It was a small quick fix and was never intended to add anything major to it. Sorry to those who expected more.

Actually that wouldn't make sense. People wouldn't have worked harder for their gear in the past since they were limited to how much myth they had to grind to get it, if they raised the cap everyone would have still grinded to get the same amount of myth for the same items. Now what they plan to do in the future is make myth items cost less, which will make people complain. SE is not a wise game company in this age.
