Its been mention by Yoshi, in his letter, that we will be getting 2 dungeons this coming patch, no? And he said that the new dungeons are going to be party based using the new job system, no? He also mentions that 1.18 is going to be the biggest patch we have downloaded as of yet. (over 500mb..don't see why not.).
He also said, in his letters (either 8, 9 or 10 can't remember), we will be running these new dungeons, only with the new job/battle system... I'll let this logic sink in.
So, lets deduce shall we,... If the new dungeons are supposed to be in 1.18 and Yoshi-P wants us running these new dungeons with the new battle system (which correlates around the new job system). We can imply that one, we get our new job quest missions so we can work towards running the new dungeons in 1.18a/b, party style. Or two, if we go by the logic half of you are using, we won't see dungeons till the end of summer, as Yoshi has clearly said, that the new dungeons are only for the new battle system that is coming. 1.18 will be a huge patch, and a lot of us will be surprised. There always a calm before the storm. And Yoshi is doing just that, making us wet with anticipation.
If you all think we are going in those dungeons with the same boring classes we have now, that bring nothing to the table, were fun is concerned, you are fooling yourselves.
p.s.
- Class system and the new Job system are two different things. The rule.. "This weapon is only used for this Class only"... will not be the rule set applied too the new Job system, I hope people understand this.
- I also heard that Yoshi might be releasing new classes from that of the list, that was data mined near release, one of them being Fencer.
- I believe that there will be a CS after we first log in, after 1.18. To start the new adventure off.
- We have been let down so many times, that all of us really think that we don't deserve a great, awesome patch.
- 1.18 is going to be better than most of you want to believe it will.
Quote from letter 10..."This time around, the list contains additions planned for up until summer 2011. You see what I did there with the bold font for emphasis? But anywho, without further ado, feast your eyes on the list in its
entirety! (Remember, these are our plans until summer 2011!)"
I believe the list he gives us is an old list, of things that they have already completed as he bolds "until summer 2011". Which means 1.18a/b would have all that stuff included.
People thinking the letter is an error with that date. Let me remind you they have people that proof read these things over and over, before sending it out so unless someone has stated that it was a mistake and its meant to say Until the end of summer 2011. I'm gonna stick to this idea.
If I'm wrong then this is the biggest "Hype Bomb Fail" I've every experienced as a gamer. As I love the FF franchise, and I can't get into anything else, as I'm wanting to play this game the way its meant to be played.
