Patch date

[Mug]

really, its not SE's fault people overhype and speculate to end up being disappointed.

SE have done a perfectly good job of hyping up the patch themselves.

i disagree, i would say they are overextending themselves but i never got the impression that they are making the patch out to be something its not. like a game saving patch thats going to change everyones mind about the game and make them want to come back and play

i feel like SE is more looking forward to the patch then saying OMG this patch is going to be WIN!!

Just a side note. It might not seem a lot of work for most of you to add auto-attack to the battle system but it does affect pretty much all your abilities. They need to completely rebalance your abilities with proper cooldowns because they are removing the stamina bar, so that each class and action is well balance when compared to one another. It's more than a "simple" band-aid.

Also, they are reworking the battle UI (bars and icons), new animations for abilities and spells (though I think some more will come in further patches), re-designing classes to make them more unique, adjusting enmity algorithm.

So yeah, they are taking a long time doing it, but it's not just "adding" auto-attack and that's it. I'd rather they take longer than release it full of bugs and glitches.

It's not a delay exactly. They said it would be mid-June at the earliest for 1.18, now they're saying that it's more like early/mid July.

Also, there's a ton of stuff other than auto-attack, and much more than that planned by the end of September (though time is running out to get through that huge list by September's End....)

More than 1.18 I'm excited to see how the game fares when 1.18, 1.19, and 1.20, the 3 "Summer Patches," are done. And I'd especially like to see what kind of things they will work on in 1.21.

At this point, your out of your mind if you think they will get all of what he said in by Sept. Its early july and the 1st of 3 is still up in the air. What they have left to do might not be as big, but still heafty....and for all we know they are barely into those yet.

Tutorials, job system + quests, grand companys, Ui revisons, materia system, frontier hubs, beast tribes, ifrit fight... among a buttload of revisons.......yah it aint happening in the next 2 months, more like 5 months at the least.

I'm extremly interested to see how this game grows, it's in a unique situation no other MMO would have. They have a chance at a relaunch no matter how it turns out it will be interesting to watch and learn from.

I'm too lazy to read this thread....but the OP is full of all sorts of assumptions and mis-statements that it renders the rest of the thread without meaning.....
