Audio popping issue

[rainichan]

Both Soken and the Japanese rep mentioned the next patch. As far as know there aren't fixed dates for the next patches yet (as there were for 6.01 and 6.05), there being just the information that 6.1 is gonna be out before the end of the first quarter (so, by the end of March, probably).

For those who have been here at the beginning of other expansions, is there a chance of being an extra patch before 6.1 (like a 6.08 or something)?
Or for all other expansions, has it always been X.01, X.05 and then X.1?

Historically there have been more than just the initial .01 and .05 patches - ShB had a 5.08, SB had 4.06 and 4.06a, HW had 3.07, and though it's been like 8.5 years, I'm pretty sure 2.0 had some fix patches (they aren't listed on their patch archives) so an extra fix patch at the end of this month/sometime next month isn't out of the realm of possibilities. For the record, 5.05 and 5.08 were about a month apart, 4.05 and 4.06 were 20 days, 3.05 and 3.07 were 34 days. So, about ~1month or so, I would wager, unless they push a fix out quicker. I hope it's quicker with a hotfix tbh, since I've had all the problems documented in here and it really decreased how the final EW fight and subsequent cutscenes played out for me :/ no one else should have that issue when they get there.

EDIT: There was a JP Radio Mog Station that had Yoshi-P on to talk about some things in terms of 6.0 and some technical things about what the 6.0 patch brought. One of the things translated by the FFXIV discord was, with emphasis mine:

"・侍や黒のようなピュアDPSはちょっとケチりすぎたかなと思っているので6.08で調整する
Pure Firepower jobs like SAM and BLM will have DPS buff since the devs do think they were a bit stingy on them. It will be for 6.08"

Hopefully the audio fixes will be in 6.08 with some other job adjustments!
