Thread: patch 2.9 the last patch for ps3

Honestly with the ps4 version coming out soon, a lot of players are going to be upgrading from their ps3 to ps4. In addition ps4 are becoming a lot more common now so it wouldn't surprise me if by the end of this year or early next year we will see a dramatic population drop on the ps3 servers. I am sure all ps3 players are willing to leave that lag and latency behind lol.

I believe Yoshi-P mentioned somewhere that FF14ARR will support PS3 all the way into 1st expansion timeline.

Most likely PS3 will continue to be supported until 2nd expansion or sometime around 3.X updates.

If they keep following WoW religiously like they've already been doing then 2.4 will be the last patch before the expansion, a couple of things point to it, mostly primals. They've been releasing one primal per patch so if you look at the primal poster from around launch only Leviathan, Ramuh and Shiva are left and one of them is coming in 2.2, next CT will be 2.3 and Ramuh is already confirmed, so 2.4 will be Shiva and probably just turn 10 with a boss fight against Bahamut, of course they could still do a 2.5 solely focusing on Bahamut. Shiva being the last primal is the perfect transition to the expansion too since they've already confirmed Ishgard would finally open by then, what with Ishgard or at least part of it most likely unfreezing after defeating her, plus the whole plot is currently moving towards dragon/zodiac serpent gods which is a perfect fit for Ishgard.

It was said that PS3 would be supported at least until the first expansion, after that they would see what happens. Yoshi-P was extremely vague, and it had the feel of someone telling people what they wanted to hear even though he had absolutely no intention of doing it. Take it as you will, but considering that FFXI STILL supports PS2, I don't think SE will have the balls to drop it no matter how much PC players complain about it.

A little program education for those of you who want to know... The version is the first number 2.x The number after the dot is how many times the version has been revised... Example 2.3 its the second version of the program and has been revised 3 times... When 3.0 comes out that means that it will be a third version and then the 3.x is how many times it is revised... So it could be 2.111 before 3.0 comes out... Hope this clarifies things

So 2.16 was the 16th update? Good to know.

2.16 wasn't using conventional versioning. If it was versioned properly it would actually be 2.1.6

In versioning a period is used as a separator, it's not a decimal mark.
