    Should read through that thread, watch the video too. I bet it's going to be in the opposite direction of rendering, which is a server issue in the first place.

    Basically, overpopulation is something the players created and it was totally not intended. And "seems" to be something they don't want happening.

    Well 1 of the reasons probably due to preventing disappointment. Imagine they say they adding in xyz, but xyz caused some issues with server stabilty and they did not add xyz in.

    Ppl gonna burn the forums down.

    The amount of items they could actually divulge on prelim. patch notes for this patch is probably small enough to not make it worth it. The Hunt adjustments are one. The rundown atm though is essentially Hunt adjustments, Ixali Beast quests, Glamour in PvP, Full Alliance queuing (Finally), misc. FL adjustments. Given the Ixali will revolve around crafting I can see why they may not want to release any details on it, we don't need a patch notes saying Glamour is enabled or 24-man queueuing. They NEVER release any kind of balance adjustment in prelim notes so that means no details on the FL stuff. Not a whole lot to put in the Notes.

    They could easily slip in the Beast Tribe quests, PVP Glamours, Alliance Queue, and other new content things. All they'd have to do is omit the system fixes. Wouldn't need to be seventeen pages long to be justified.

    i myself been here since beta and find it quite disappointing they don't have regular official patch notes posted a couple days prior to the patch for something to talk about, even if it isn't the full patch note release. Some patched they do and others like this they don't release it until the morning the patch is released... which is kind of disappointing as i rather be playing the game instead of reading patch notes the next morning.

    Depends on point of view,they release full notes during the maintenance. I will be at work so a nice reading will be welcome, and back home to enjoy the game

    From an interview that Yoshida had recently, he said they are withholding the patch notes in regards to the hunts because they don't want to cause people to either farm hunts even more or stop doing hunts completely until the patch is pushed out.

    I'm guessing nerf since stopping hunts by the zerg wouldn't really be against what they want, increasing the zerg would be.

    I couldn't remember what was supposed to be in this patch at all so asked my FC and got "hunt changes and chocobo dying" and then a conversation about what hunt changes may be coming. I don't typically do hunts and my birds look fine the way they are so this was looking to be a patch I wouldn't get anything out of. No one mentioned Ixali dailies which I've been eagerly awaiting. Yay if they really do come out today ^_^
