When do we get a big patch?

[Seif]

SE has been really quiet lately.

When can we expect a big enough patch that could possibly lure people to buy subs to see it.

We know that real jobs are coming someday but what else and when?
Any rep responses to this would be cool. (you guys have longer xmas holidays than the rest of us in the industry can even hope to dream of! I'm so jealous!)

We always get big patches, or are you talking about content patches before 2.0?

They always talk about patches as they come, jobs were mentioned ahead of time because it's a large step forward in terms of game playability that originally would have happened last year (hence why it was talked about early), but patches 1.22 and 1.23 are over half a year off given the 2.0 timeline, so we have quite awhile before any tidbits are released on that.

The patch is what February? Expecting about Mid/Late Feb, so i expect news to be later this month.

I have no idea what is gunna be in it other than jobs though, but i am fairly certain it says exactly what will be in each patch and their dates on the v2.0 timeline.

But im too lazy to look right now lol

At 2.0. Everything until then will be crap meant to tide you over until such time.

1.22 AND 1.23.

1.22 AND 1.23.

Only 1.23 is over half a year off, so it wouldn't be "1.22 and 1.23 are over half a year off."

This really is the forum that argues semantics, 1.22 and 1.23 are actual content patches, which means it won't be for a half a year till we have a sizable content patch -- her post wasn't that hard to understand, but judging by your responses to her in the topic about grinding, guess I understand the semantics argument.

Indeed it isn't hard to understand, but it can be misconstrued as we will not see either patch for over 6 months.
