Probably part of the plan. It makes business sense to have a business day immediately after any patch to be able to have staff available in case shit hits the fan due to a bug or an exploit released with the patch. Where I work, we have releases of new code to production on Thursdays as well.

Makes sense. And then you have the weekend to let shit go to hell so you have things to do on Monday lol. Honestly it's actually probably best that we have a few days to get used to things before they see our feedback, peak gameplay days at that.

Right for the most part in regards to the game, but SW's beginning numbers are going to be really high, and continue if end game holds itself real well, which is the true question if SW will be any good or not.

Anyways, my guess is between Dec.10-15 for 1.20, I wish Dev's would come out and say it though.

Yeah I agree. Before I wasn't sure if I was going to try SWTOR, especially because I rarely get into that style of MMO, and there was no noticable controller support. I got an invite to the beta a few weekends ago and like you, I couldn't stop playing. Me and a friend were playing for what had to be around 15hrs straight, it just pullllls you in with the open-ended dialougue and gameplay. I even got Xpadder to work AWESOMELY for this (I was the sole healer in all our group content and had almost no problems once I spent an hour/two working out the kinks). Can't wait to rip some KB+M players a new one in PVP, I'm already in need of my TOR fix. I do plan on paying through FFXIVs continued development prior to 2.0, but I am expecting the servers to see a pretty sharp decrease in population at least until 1.21 comes out. I am in a fairly large LS on one of the most populated servers in XIV, and I know about half are at least trying TOR when it launches.

Though they don't need a patch to start or end any events, and the Starlight Celebration stuff could already be in the game. I don't follow the .dat miners so I wouldn't know. Coincidentally, the 15th is a Thursday so we may see it on the 15th.
