Possible patch delay

[Chardrizard]

I'd rather them sort their shit out. I have never seen a game that has had such a consistency in delays due to bugs.

it's because u never seen a game with dateline laid out for you 2 year before......... other company would simply keep it quiet until they finish the patches then announces maintenance date and you would never know if they delayed the patch or behind schedule because players are not expecting when it will come. Logic, can you have it?

Right that is because some other games just push it out then either wait till a player finds it and goes woops we didn't know about that *HOTFIX* or they just later go *HOTFIX* "we found this bug in the system and fixed it" or "sorry but the spell XXX for class ZZZ had a bug where it incorrectly made the spell do *STUPID* damage and one shot everything. This has been fixed". Yeah never knew any games that ever did that...

In the end I don't care they found a bug and they are fixing it and so the patch gets pushed back a few days... nothing big... I mean its not like you had scheduled time off so you could be right there and first person on the server to play with the new patch... I mean you didn't did you?

the cat is bemused =-.-=

Two days delays, the world is ending.

Good thing Square Enix consists of a bunch of super humans that are able to predict the future. Oh wait..

Just throwing it out there... Delaying a patch is MUCH better than releasing it with massive game breaking glitches. There were some good examples of this in FFXI. And some of the things in FFXI weren't even glitches, just untested in terms of balance... which ends up being patched with another maintenance a couple of days later, causing the servers to go down again unnecessarily after a patch was just released.

You all act like you'd rather have Square Enix keep us in the dark about release dates and everything of the sort. Guess what? WE WERE THERE. It was that way with FFXI for most of its life, and it was like that early in FFXIV's life. It was terrible. Now, at least we actually KNOW the patch will be out this month. We actually KNOW the progress on the path. Heck, we even got patch notes EARLY. That alone is a HUGE leap for Square Enix and their communication with the community.

Shit happens deal with it, they could tell me they was gonna delay it by 10 more day idc cause shit happens if you don't like it don't stay. Don't try to tell them how to plan a programing scheduled when your not one your self.

I know countless people that are happy with the delays because they can pull lifeless-card on weekend and can still compete to be the "1st" of something.

i wish i could be the first, but the delay put it into my workweek so i cant get it now lol, but oh well, im not big into the "e-peen" of doing stuff first so i can live

cuz you know, what people you dont know in real life think about you even though they will never have an affect on your real life, really matters, they are important

So the problem is with buying items from the new market search? People have been complaining about a lack of content for months, so they delay their tiny stream of new content so they can add in a mild convenience for lazy players?

Releasing 1.20 without, and adding it to 1.20a would have saved them a whole lot of raging on the forums.

Funny, I dreamed about a delay this night. *yawns*
I'm a seer.

I find the heated debate amusing.
