gathering in nature

[Catapult]

People said that last week.

And the week before.

We've heard nothing big for three weeks now.

Two things to remember:

- A big patch is on its way, due for release in less than a week. Said patch will likely speak for itself.

- The entire games industry is currently in PR overdrive. With E3 going on, don't be surprised if things not prominent at E3 come a little slower.

There was no specific release date set. Just a general time of the month. "Mid June at the earliest" means exactly that. If the patch were to be released in July, that statement would still be true.

Hey gang. We have another set of answers here for your perusal. Unfortunately, this isn't the entire list as we're still going through and organizing/translating them. Sorry for the continued delay, and believe me when I say that this has been a learning experience for everyone involved (so many questions...) and we'll be working to ensure we smooth the entire thing out going forward.

Very nice! ^^ Much more interesting answers this time! Would've been nice if you guys said what region these questions came from. ^^ Looking foward to the last batch of Q&A.

Hmm. I could have sworn I'd seen a date of the 14th or something. Possibly my imagination then.
In that case, I'd just call the patch "overdue".

Q. Please let us know the current direction of gathering classes.
A. Along with crafters, we are defining it as a class that supports the battle classes.

Well there we have it gatherers Are supports of Dow/DoM Classes, which from a normal viewing point it comes down to that. Unless change happens ( and personally I hope it will) we are defined as a class that supports another class but can that really be called a main class anymore? no not really.

Yep. Just your imagination.

What I would like to know is in what way they are supposed to support.

I'm pretty sure support isn't only in the form of buffing and healing. I think supplying the weapons, armors, accessories and repairs is a form of support considering it "helps them go further".

SE's new upcoming (produced) game Wakfu is fun.

I believe Square just published the game, meaning they had nothing to do with the "making" of it, but that might be a bit of "who the hell gives a crap" information, because the game is actually pretty interestingly fun! We need more strategic and turn-based MMO's like that one! Atlantica would be INCREDIBLE if the company running it wasn't "milking" it rather than "growing" it.

Are there are members of the development team that are playing gatherer classes and enjoying it?
There are actually quite a few dev. team members playing gathering classes!

Am I the only one that found this response funny?

Its' funny because he mentions nothing about them enjoying it.

Is it just me or is every single one of those posts either "We have no plans for this.", "We will consider this." or "We are looking into this."

We haven't had any big news on Patch 1.18 for like two weeks plus now Square, how about you tell us what you are actually doing and not what you're considering?
