1.17b What Content Do You Think The Will "Break Off"

[Sonic_the_Hedgehog]

Here's what I think is coming in 1.17b.

New sidequests
New summer event
Implementation of initial camera position retention
Display targeting cursor above character
Implementation of pop-up help messages
Implementation of improvements to the repair system
Stage two of radical improvement measures for the Markets
Revisions to enmity algorithms
Implementation of rules for when stacking crowd control actions
Implement the default setting of class-specific actions when playing as that class, and define conditions for setting the actions of other classes.
Implementation of command centers in the three city-states
Ability to set length of inactivity before log is hidden
Random bug fixes

No joke, of course most of that stuff may not come until 1.18. But I basically went through Yoshi's list and took out they stuff they were currently working on. Who knows how many days old that list is, the stuff under future tasks may be current tasks now.

1) more quests
2) another fix for the market crashes
3) something totaly unexpected

Whatever they do end up implementing, they do it not to appease the playerbase that thinks too highly of themselves but to ease the transition to the new mechanics on their side.

I honestly think its going to be pretty minor changes. I remember people getting over-excited with 1.17b and then getting let down, so I would suggest that you keep your expectations in check and remember that this is only a minor patch. =P

Let's put it this way, E3 is june 7. They need all the big show stoppers as much as they can muster by then.

That means an update first week-ish of june. So the boring non door busting prep stuff would be monday.

It will be likely to be LAME since it's only a week away from E3, which is the door buster.

Another theory is that they can't make June 7 E3 door buster, and they have to rely on Door creeker. That is everything that have, fancy and all, and then do E3 "promises". Like "by end of june we have this and that, and here's a preview".

So depending on which theory holds, you will get a yawner (likely) or a massive wave follow by a big old fashion promise for next month.

E3 is important for FF14, heck it's important for every MMO, since it's the play-offs so to say. It's odd enough we're getting the 1.17b as it is with E3 so close.

Good point but honestly I doubt SE is as smart as you are about that =( Even the previous E3 prior to XIV's release had minimal XIV pr.

IMO it'll be purely system side stuff, or prep stuff in the background leading up to big patch, it definitely wont be dungeons because they want to change the battle system first as they have said before. At most I see more side quests in terms of content.

Coming off of what was said above me. I would have to say the starting phase of bringing in the new battle changes, I call (some are all of these).... Auto-attack, class revamp changes, if we are lucky New jobs..and maybe even some UI changes, because it has too happen sooner than later, because then the dungeons can follow.

We all have been waiting so long that it hard to think that we might actually get a fun patch tomorrow, but its possible that we do get a fun patch tomorrow
