How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

[Garnix]

Same clown in 7.0 , well 5 month is not that long why any one care.
We care as for the longer time we do not get more things as well.

Indeed 5 months isn't that bad.
It's rare enough to have games provide regular content updates. Knowing that it will come after X weeks/months is fine by me.
Better than having to be in constant hope that something will happen eventually in the near future.

IMO the issue is not the release calendar, it's the fact that most content is short-lived.
And I think they are well aware of it, and having 2 PvP seasons per patch is a step in the right direction to fill the gap. (as long as the rewards for the seasons are worth it in the future)

I'm sorry but when they make everything infinitely accessible and give players no sense of improvement, it's never going to be long-lasting content.

CC will die in a patch or so, mark my words.

I mean... When Im out of stuff to do I just... Stop playing and paying my sub?

Im pretty comfortable with longer patch cycles, particularly if it means more longterm content like deep dungeon returning.

[MaikoRaines]

I'd kill for some mid patch collabs and events to ease the wait time in between major patches. Some reruns of past collabs or events would be a welcome sight for those who just joined the game recently who didn't benefit from what we did. I did the FFXI event when it first dropped and I did it again because why not.


(Cue the ravenous gatekeepers)


I also have an ever growing library of Nintendo Switch titles AND I just acquired a bunch of old school Neo Geo MVS carts for my Arcade machine. I've personally got plenty to do.

I also discovered the outdoors again as I ended up buying a new condo, moving in a few weeks and only a 10 minute walk from a park/sports track surrounded by nature.

I feel a sense of improvement but as with most things that varies player by player. You seem like you want the game to die tbh. Why not spend more time playing LA?

[OM3GA-Z3RO]

I would be okay with it if every patch wasn't just a singular bit of linear content but no, they drop 1 thing for a specific group of people and they expect us to keep ourselves occupied with just that one thing, nah mate it shouldn't work like that.

And now... it's 4.5 months.

What are players who aren't going to do Ultimate do for four months in 6.1?

1. Do the alliance raid, which probably takes 1-2 hours to complete on day 1.

2. Do the Tataru and Hildebrand quests which take 2 hours judging by previous instances.

3. Do the new extreme trial which takes like 2-4 hours to clear.

4. Waste 5 mins every day on beast tribes, and waste 3 mins every week on custom delivery.

Congratulations that's all you have for 4 months. $60 in subscription fees. That's even less than what you get from the typical AAA single player title.

With this little content they should be accelerating patch delivery, not slowing it down.

Troll post but ill bite.

if 2 weeks means more content per patch than most other MMO's release in an expansion, im fine with it.

[Renalt]

I have level 90 everything. Well over 150 days of play time...and I feel like I've not done like 30% of the content. You can wait two weeks. Either do something you've been putting off or play a different game or go watch some TV.

Where did they say that? Because I apparently missed it.
