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.
6 months is actually not the industry standard for creating high res models. most 3d artists can do it much faster, but i think he meant the time it takes from when they decide a new armor should exist to it existing, a lot of that time is probably spent in planning stages.

Personally i think they spend too long in planning, 6 months is how long i would take to do a 3d model in my off time, when im bored, and thats with me relearning the whole 3d software.
