November? really?

A life, do you need it? >< My god, do you work? Or go to school? Have a relationship? ANYTHING? I cant personally run through the content like that. Ive more then enough to do in the game..

Maybe it never crossed your mind, but perhaps I've been ignoring all of that and focusing on just one thing at a time for a couple hours every other day or so. With the extended interval between 3.1 it means I can slack off more on the main and do something else in game, or spend more time elsewhere. The list of things to do is excessive because there are some folks who will complain about not having anything to do from a lack of new content. I can find things to do, there is plenty of content. I just find that hard to believe for the most that there's nothing to do in game or that there's nothing else to do between long updates. Assuming I'm or anyone is going to devote all free time to do all that or more in game means you probably need a break more than I do.

It confuses me quite a bit as to how you can translate, "I have more time to finally start working on these other aspects of the game", to, "I've completed everything in the game and have no life". Do you just assume that all lists of content within the game are lists of what that person has completed, ignoring the whole "I have the chance now to..." at the start of that person you so needlessly attacked's paragraph?

I wasn't "Attacking" anyone. If you think that was an "attack" you are un-aware of what an "attack" on someone is.. Ive seen attacks by people on the forums, and that wasn't it. lol

Tbh I made the mistake of assuming that he was being a smart *** with his/her post. I have sense deleted said comment, briefly explained this, and apologized. >< but no use really as this thread started by a simple question, which has been gave a simple answer to on page one, yet im amazed at the amount of attention the Dev team taking a break has received. Not like its going to magically change now. New patch in about 50 days incoming.

Edit: Beaten to the punch.

I posted this in the other thread, but I'll mention it here as well.

The developers have just finally had the chance to take a break (i.e. short vacation) since the release of Heavensward. We can't just chain them to their desks and let their brains fry. They need rest too.

Although patch 3.1 will be late, all subsequent patches will be on the regular 3 month interval schedule.

[Velox]

So are content patches every 5 months going to be a thing now?

No the patch schedule will be the same. The development team took a break after 3.0 launch (we all need vacation time from our jobs). That's the only reason why this one is later.

But a patch after 5 months is too long considering that the expansion doesn't offer much.

Seeing as how i still consider myself a new player, i welcome this, as it is giving me time to level other jobs and such. While i "rushed" through with astrologian, instead of just mindlessly capping eso, and then afking in Iddylshire, i have picked up a sword and shield and have started to learn to tank.

While this is going on, my professions have been getting some love to, and the wardrobe is growing. So..many...glamour crystals

Even though 5 months can be considered a little longer than most content patches, why not use this time to do something else in game you have been putting off. That zeta you have been wanting? That one class you thought might be fun, but just haven't had time to level? There are countless things to do in this game.

This so much, Heavensward did not bring enough to the table to last almost half a year despite being an 'Expansion' perhaps if they actually gave us more than the endgame 2.x formula this would be an acceptable delay.
