Patch 1.16a.....

[JakeRoon]

do you play with a beer in one hand? lol

it's not "hard" .....it was just far more fluid to simply be able to press up/down and quickly heal party members; for the majority of healers. Hence the outcry...hence the addition of the option.

It really was a good move to add in the options and I hope they continue with the trend.

Nope, but I do have the occasional chili dog though.

Really? I found the targeting system they put in to be quite useful. I mean being able to target JUST enemies was a godsend especially in Behests and large leve groups.

Me too; I really liked the changes they made. However, I have one gripe:

Whoever thought that using left/right was an acceptable way to change between party members needs to be stabbed with a spork. I really hope they give us the choice of using left/right for mode change and up/down for target changes.

I think you're talking about me. In my brain, it makes sense to me that if my party member that I want to cure or use whatever on is on my left, then I should press the left button to select them.

it sucked for healers, we liked the old one...now we have both.....problem solved ^^

This should do this with everything lol!

They can be really hard to pick out in large groups, though. I much prefer to scroll up and down the party list - I know exactly how many key presses are needed to highlight the member I want. With left and right, I have a rough estimate that usually isn't accurate due to players I didn't notice standing behind other members.

If this is the level of "change" that is going to be brought to this game with every patch, then I am giving up all hope right now. Let's see what they have done in the 5 months since release: changed targeting system, fixed marketing system (best change), made mobs bigger, changed way we get SP, added sidequests. All of the fundamental problems of the game are still in place (poorly designed UI/battle system/animations/delay times etc.). I am seriously worried now.

Any idea when this patch is supposed to take place? I may have missed it but I don't recall seeing anywhere when it is supposed to go in effect.

Let's see what they have done in the 5 months since release:

-Management changed after 2 months, the development restarted from the scratch with a month used for setting things up.

Oh wow, the future is suddenly a lot brighter. They (the new team) haven't had time to finish anything substantial at this point, and the old team didn't have time to finish whatever they had started in just 2 months either. It may be unacceptable that they haven't changed the class system in a span of 5(6 really) months, but they have only worked on that stuff for 2 months at most.

Monday.
