Patch 3.5 - Speculation Thread

[Theodric]

I actually suspect that we might not see 3.5 until February. If it's anything like 2.5 it'll likely be rather huge and split into multiple parts as the lead up to 4.0. Potentially with each piece a month apart (and 4.0 is expected to be released in early summer next year).

I think you're forgetting a possible 3.55, which should come by February if 3.5 comes in the mentioned dates.

Then from February to late May/early June (which i suppose it's when SB comes) it's 3-4 Months, pretty much what we wait between each major patch.

And until 4.0 we can still get 3.56, 3.57 etc

- 2.5 came out January 20th, 2015
- 2.57 came out May 11st, 2015

That's almost 5 months for something that's not even a major patch but a Hotfix patch instead.

I doubt they delay 3.5 that long, especially as we'll have another immediate delay leading upward to the expansion. My estimations are:

January 10th - 3.5
April 18th - 3.55 (Bigger .5 patch than usual ala 2.55)
Early July - Stormblood
