Do you remember the talk about 'multiple teams working on different aspects of the game'? So far all we've heard is talk about the battle system, which again is a huge issue. What about the server latency issues? Crafting recipes? In-game bugs? The list goes on, but why no mention of these issues being addressed?

As far as I'm concerned push back your patch another month or two if you really need the time to get it right, but patch in some stuff for the other aspects of the game. While I admit that the game does revolve around combat there are other aspects that could be addressed to keep people interested/provide feedback. Waiting two months for an 'epic patch' which won't be epic isn't the way to go. I just don't understand why this battle patch has to be the first thing to come out. It's like their 'battle team' actually works on every aspect of the game. How cool would it be to have 8 slots to trade stuff instead of 4? Little stuff like this would keep me happy in between your 'game changing' patches. I'm sure others would feel the same.
You're basically on the same level as me, this is what I'm trying to get at. I know people will disagree with me but I do not think this patch is exciting. I think this patch is basic. A fun battle system is basic. Some simple dungeons is basic. I don't even feel like we're waiting for fun content, we're waiting, 9 months in, for things which should have been there at the start. Now, I do realise they need to fix it and this is the right path to go down, no point whining about what didn't happen etc, but they need to start throwing us bones more often. I can't get excited about such simple things. Maybe since I've been playing since Alpha I'm a little more ... well, bored, than some of the newer players.

As for them saying there would only be two dungeons, sorry, I must have read something wrong as I thought they meant 'Rank 30 and 50 dungeons' as in more than one of each, not one of each. But I may have read it wrong, I'm not the most thorough reader.
