Upper tiers of an action (such as Fire II and Fire III) will be abolished.....

Why start whining when the patch isn't already out?

^ best logic so far

Its really not

The sooner the people voice their opinions and get conversations going the more stuff the development team know before its way under development. If you are building something and you are told near the end to change a key component that now will take a long time due to all of the overlay development you'd be a bit pissed, if only they told you before ey! before you started working on the wrong thing.

(It is kind of the shit hole we are in now, They built this game on a very unstable server setup and awful engine and no one said anything and now they've had to spend 2 years redoing all the mistakes, because they did not listen to anyone during alpha or beta and no one inside SE said anything... bamdumtish?)

This is why they release the info, if the good logic was wait until patch, then you could all shut the fuck up and wait for notes and information until patch as well but sadly a lot of you cant, you must know whats happening all the time! And some here like to influence what is going to happen, especially when a lot of people realise SE are heading the wrong direction and need to be informed sooner rather than later so they question themselves.

Otherwise its a case of

wait x month for patch
wait x month for next patch due to everyone who "waited" and is now complaining
wait x month for delayed patch due to previous patch having unforeseen consequences of change
wait x month for delayed patch due to delayed patch from previous unaware of patch
wait x month..

The cycle continues.
