Patch 1.21 - March 6th~9th?

[Zetsumei_Tsunarashi]

Release date works out nicely for me. If It was out next week I'd have to work all weekend after the patch release. Since it's the week after I'll be off from work that whole weekend. /hurray !!!

Whilst I can't say i'm happy that they are a month late with this patch in the original expected timeline, at least they finally said something whilst providing images.

OP you sure the JP guys in your party said Famitsu Magazine? was looking for article online but don't see it.

It's kind of bugging me now lol... I know Famitsu gets exclusive info from Square-Enix time to time but delay info shouldn't be exclusive info... if Famitsu is holding back SE from releasing info like this because they have some type of connection it's retarded... New patch/update/quest info I can understand but delay info?? lol

I posted about it briefly on the JP side and deleted after but someone was quick enough to pick my post up and post it on 2CH and they are also checking on confirmation on this one and thinking the same as me lol.

Yoshi-P had posted that the original planned release date for 1.21 was February 17th and that it would be delayed at least 2 weeks, so March 2nd or later.

Its now delayed to 6-9, so 3 weeks past the original date so is still not quite a month. It also makes me wonder why people kept thinking the patch would be out before March, this post was made early in February iirc.

We knew the patch wouldn't be out until March because of that post and when I looked at the calendar I assumed the 8th (thursday of first full week of march) which is quite close to when its going to be.

So in the Famitsu Magazine they already knew the patch was delayed again till March 6-9 lol, I'm not mad about the delay but if it's been already told in the magazine that means they already knew the delay was going to happen for some time...lol Really wish I was in Japan to check out the magazine... so hard to get them in my local Japanese book store here... orz

Well if it's in Famitsu, it's on 2ch most likely couple of hours after it gets published, so no need for a JP bookstore, just need internet

But tbh I hardly doubt that was published anywhere in Famitsu before Yoshida made his post. Or JP players would have talked about it in their forums.

I would think so too but there has been some stuff that was on Connect On that I found out almost a month later - not posted on 2CH or Forums until some guy posted about it on 2CH so could be possible, but if it's info like this most likely someone would of mentioned here or 2CH for sure and I didn't see anything so was just curious lol

Where's that poll thread of 1.21 date again? I know someone that bet on early march as date lol!

This extra delay was completely expected...this is why i do not expect 2.0 before 2013. My 2.0 date would be march of 2013...because this is already acting like a snowball...every patch is getting more and more delayed.

Just sucks that delays = rushed content = lack of proper testing = fail.

[Griss]

im going to dig myself a hole now and wait till the unavoidable "WTF I WANT IT NAOOO THIS IS BULLSHIIIIT" rage is over that this news will spawn

/equip mh "Shovel"

Every body is welcome in the Griss bunker. Just pick up after your self's and stay out of the mini fridge.

They definately said Famitsu. They didn't say magazine however.

But I just assumed they were referring to the magazine because when I went to the famitsu website I didn't see anything about XIV besides the article about music tracks posted yesterday.

Gah, its been posted many times that 1.x development will not affect 2.0.
