6 months to build new gear?! Seriously? How do they manage to put more gear in XI with all the new content with a whole lot more of variables to work with?
Lol, it doesn't take any less time in XI.

They can build as many new models as they want, but they need to start preparing them 6 months in advance.

There's no limit on how many models can be made (aside from money limitations of course), but it's going to take six months from start to finish. And that is the industry standard. If XI can pump out new models in 3 month intervals, all that means is that preparing those models was started 6, 9, and 12 months ago.

In other news, if trolls like Seif really can't come up with better complaints than this I am convinced the game is finally in good hands.
