Patch 1.17 Outline (04/12/2011)

[Frebaut]

You all should be expecting companies THIS PATCH (1.17!). Look at the dev tags on the lodestone post. 1002 Storylines and world quests and 1003 Public company quests

1.17 is getting broken in 2 parts 1.17 and 1.17a. the a patch is the 30% part of 1.17 which is only 70%. they are not 2 seperate patches but 1 patch broken up. I don;t think it will be hot fixes like 1.16a was. There is more then meets the eye as they coulda just came out with the easter event regardless of the patch.

In that case... it's a LOLPATCH 1.17

You make me laugh, always have something to complain about. Some of those changes in this patch are working towards the bigger changes(PT size reduction) and they will need to observe how things are with just 8 people. New NMs, new loot, new items, be happy they are doing something.

woo! well if this patch is all about re-balancing the game, then i guess content is on the way....

[Benji]

I'm really not at all disappointed with these patch notes. Add in the fact that it's not even detailed patch notes yet + 1.17a will be right around the corner with the other 30% of the content that we would have been getting Thursday originally. It's not a new battle system quite yet but it looks like it's enough to make me want to log in and play again!

[Randis]

if companies were to be added then SE would have stated that.
Companies will be NOT added, however next weak SE will release info on companies.
I would also not expect AA or any other features.

A more detailed report can be found in the 1.17 patch notes, scheduled for release on April 14

"A more detailed report" does not mean that key-features were left out in this post. It berely means that there will be more notes explaining the content of this update.

I wonder what NM will be added, new models or if some existing mobs will be reused.
Also happy to hear about new gear.

Thanks for the update SE!

cheers

I feel like the only one disappointed about the party size reduction. They'll be almost half the size. Behests were fun with tons of people; now it'll feel slower and more monotonous without lots of different people around, adding their personality to everything.

I admit I don't like to party, but those behests were rather enjoyable. Once it slims down, I'll probably not enjoy them as much.

I really should stop playing until all the changes have gone through so I don't get so attached to some things and feel distraught at the changes, but gah, I can't.

Assuming Yoshi wasn't yanking our chain, looks like company info will be released tomorrow coinciding with the maintenance. Seems like they're trying to create a fully fledged page for it I'd think.
