Patch Notes Up

[Bakabridget]

It's 8 hours for a patch that slightly tweaks a few stats and fixes like 2 bugs. It being something I don't care about is irrelevant, it's simply something that shouldn't take anywhere near 8 hours, and like always the servers will go back down a day or 2 later for a follow up patch that fixes some random thing they broke.

The problem with you, guys, is that you don't read:

"In order to accompany Patch 4.06a, we will be performing infrastructure maintenance on all Worlds at the time below, during which FINAL FANTASY XIV will be unavailable."

Geez, some people should spend a little less time playing and more time learning how to comprehend the written word.

As someone who doesn't play PvP that often. I'm mildly slightly disappointed.

RIP melees. Not only do you do less damage, but even if you can get to the ranged attackers, they all have more HP.

*This issue primarily affects internet-based communications in Japan, but because contact with Japanese servers is required upon login (for login information or patch management, for example), players in the NA/EU data centers may also be affected by connection issues.

I had this issue playing on NA server, they've done good making it stable past 1-2 days.
I rather wait 8 hours than have a broken game because they rush patches.

Oh.
A pvp patch? As if PVPers will ever be satisfied in ANY game lol

Bring on 4.1!

[Mature]

I forgot there was maintenance lol cheers

[Phileas]

Pvp update? zzzzzzzz

[Mirch]

PLD
Cover nerf, maybe a good one. 3s to 2s stun? can do.
DRK
what? wait what? the blackest night untouched... but thanks god power slash debuff got nerfed
WAR
that's it, 2 seconds stun with long cooldown for high damage, i think it is a nice change

MNK
lol? poor monk this is a heavy nerf, tornado kick nerf was ok imo but nerfing riddle of fire too idk, it was the melee with the highest chance of winning..we will see now.
DRG
why nerf a skill that costs 2/5 of your TP bar.
SAM
samurai seems to be fine now? being able to use it's gauge skill more often
NIN
wow..like wow it has like heavy, bind and silence, let's add stun and on the highest potency skill for a pro move limit break.

BRD
why increase hp when you could be untouched the whole fight
MCH
same as bard
BLM
+1000 hp for caster vs +1500 hp for the rangeds. shouldn't it be the opposite? casters have to stand still to act, more vulnerable to attacks, while rangeds can move the whole day
SMN
same as black mage but no changes on skills or anything, its burst is really nice, should stay as it is.
RDM
we have to see if the redmage can act as a mage turret more effectively now

WHM
that's nice actually, being able to reapply a regen
SCH
from OP to even more OP, just spam adlo
AST
im not sure about this


I think the changes were needed and overall fine.

So this patch has basically nothing in it and yet the maintenance takes 8 hours? Is it just me or does FF14 have like way more downtime than other mmos? Are square really just incompetent?

It's 8 hours for a patch that slightly tweaks a few stats and fixes like 2 bugs. it's simply something that shouldn't take anywhere near 8 hours.

Could you please give me a list of the games you have developed and give me an estimated time your games are offline due to maintenance. Clearly you know how to develop a game better than SE.

who even gives a fuck about pvp?

Well, obviously people are asking for changes otherwise they wouldn't implement them, would they?

There are clearly more changes that are behind the scenes that SE doesn't have to mention to warren an 8 hour down time, this game wasn't created for 1 person, you.
