Neo-salvage and the new expansion better be worth justifying $13 every month with all these other games floating around now. Updates like this are a slap in the face to players

(*) Will not be in this update as it is still in testing

I mean really?

Sorry but I don't understand a stupid post such as this. Do you not understand how the basics of MMO game development works? It will take them time to push the Neo Salvage/New Expansion, and yet they still try and push smaller updates until then to attempt to keep players interested.

This is all way better service than all of the years between 2002 to 2010 for this game. Never has there been such frequent updates, big and small.

2012 and people still use that idiotic "this is a slap in the face for players" quote. A real slap in the face would be them making players wait 2-4 months for an update, then have the update be a steaming pile of crap (something that has happened many times in this game's history).

Just be patient for the real juicy stuff of quit for the next 6 months like the rest of us.

I'm not as optimistic as you after seeing what they did with Limbus and Einherjar. They can't even follow their original roadmap and pushed everything that was worthwhile (new summon, 2hrs salvage etc.) back even further. I don't see these updates being worth my money spent tbh.

I know right? Why doesn't this game keep up with my expectations and the rate I complete every new thing!? And why can't I figure out that if something isn't entertaining me anymore, that bitching about it is not as effective as actually quitting?

Event-related

Eligibility

  • Parties must be comprised of between three and six players.

  • There is no level restriction.

  • There is a time limit of fifteen minutes.

HUH?!

One sack of Moblin pheromones will be added to your stock every twenty hours (Earth time). FAIL

  • Recast times for summoning magic have been reduced to five seconds.

    *Odin and Alexander will be unaffected by this change.

  • Blood Pact: Ward abilities will no longer be interrupted if the monster you are targetting is defeated.

  • Enfeebling magic resistance for the following monsters has been adjusted:
    Nergal / Bata / Aeshma / Thalesek / Pyrrha / Arch-Omega / Arch-Ultema / Odin (Odin's Chamber II)


Maybe its is mistype. Maybe they meant every 20 minutes? Aww... I just made myself sad.. Fail. :(

Here I thought they were trying to be more friendly to their players becoming more casual, and they decide to do another event where you have to regularly do it or get screwed (Max storage 4). There really shouldn't be any reason for this to happen since there's a 20-hour cooldown on the dumb things, why the double whammy?

All this gear related to Cursna.

Protip: "or... you could just make it work like all the other 'na family of spells where it... you know... works every time".

In other news... I was going to ask if this place would have a Light All The Lamps or Light All The Lamps in Specific Order type crap like in Nyzul Isle Investigations.

I'm not optimistic, nor pessimistic over the what's coming in the future. I am however patient-- I do want to see what Neo Salvage and SoA both have in store. Roadmaps are generally never followed 100% anyways for any game-- either the game/update gets pushed out early (with flaws) to meet a deadline, or the roadmap(s) get pushed back so that it's a stronger game/update overall. Bugs and glitches happen. Changes happen. New, viable ideas happen. Player input is now valued. These things all slow down development, though in a good way.

You should commend SE even being through enough to show players what they have in store to release over the course of a year at all; FFXI of the past was generally played with everyone having zero clue on what they could expect, up until the day of the update and the update notice a week before.

Updates can be seen as "meh", "lame", "fail", or "lackluster". However, no update that comes with new things to do and no glaring nerfs should be seen as an insult to players.

IMO, take a break from playing. I do them usually for a few months and once was for a year+. Feels great. I have another long term break coming up soon as well (I'll come back around SoA).

Read again, they're in Salvage zones. They will be used to unlock pathos.

Also what's wrong with Einherjar? Odin 2 is a rather interesting fight.
