Patch Appreciation Thread

[Buttons]

All the whining is getting on my nerves.

So for those who have been in-game already post here what you especially liked, so the devs see we appreciate it.

I loved:

The new icons.
The way my Lalafell Conjurer whacks mobs with my staff.
The new decorations in Uldah and Gridania.
The amazing new company buildings and their music.
The new music in the shroud, simply amazing.
The new fast swiveling camera.
Shadows and draw distance have been changed, looks so good.

love the fact that I can't play until later today, it makes me appreciate the patch even more xD

on topic, I'll post my favorite changes later.

Yeah, it's a shame the whiny THMs and ARCs are dominating right now because of being (justifiably) smacked with a nerf bat

I love the new Black Shroud music.

And criticize my opinion all you want, I'm diggin' the new combat system. I find combat to be faster paced AND more challenging, just like they said it would be. Bravo, Matsui-san.

Not a home run, but a respectable stand-up double with a couple RBIs (I hate sports).

Keep up the good work, Yoshi-P. You'll make a believer out of me yet. ^_^

it's late here, 3:36 am, but i still tried some new stuff out, visited a hub and did my first company quest and following instructions.
so far i like all the changes, and the quests are very interesting aswell, but i'm too sleepy to continue even if i would love to lol.

my favorite part is how i have been able to play for maybe 10 minutes in the last hour due to a very unstable patch. yep, great job so far.

i agree with all that! I like the icons the best so far. i dced so i haven't made it to town yet for grand companies.

Well I wasn't on long before I got booted; but I like the Hamlet up in the the Black Shroud. The new music, the Twin Adder's. New cutscenes (although I crashed during half of one so I hope I get to redo it when I log back on)

Killing stuff is fun; lag sucks (kind of like a new MMO launch) my guess is everyone and they're mother logged on to check things out.
