It's past 4:00 PM PST, and we don't even have a notice regarding the update that we were told was happening today... o_o
Any news?
Besides you removing the Skill Reset scrolls, but you didn't mention that either.

Battle Field (Phase 3) (No ETA)
This will include level limited zones for levels 70+

This is being worked on. Names will be re-named to avoid confusion. It will take some time considering we must keep consistency and form against all scrolls and recipes and icons.
Spam Filter (Expected February)
This is currently in development to better protect the player from the gold spammers.
Class Imbalance (No ETA)
Under research for the past 2 weeks. Developers are currently looking at statistics and will be evaluating the statistics for the next few weeks. I'll keep you updated as I find out more information.
Kingdom Quest Frequency (March?)
Developer has agreed to increase the amount of KQs available.
High Level Only Zones (?)
This is under discussion with development. Zones restricted to only high levels (50+?).
EXP Rates for High Levels
This is under research with development. EXP rates that affect levels 65+.
That is all for now. If I have more news, i'll update later.

But aren't the updates posted in the developer news section mean just the estimation when the gms gonna release it?
Developer News Section
Hi everyone,
This section will be used to express what Outspark and the developer are cooking up in the near future. Some info is solid, some WIP (work in progress), and some are just rumors/ideas being thrown around. We'll do our best to communicate which is which :)
Please remember that all information in this section is subject to change and not final until announced in our Announcement section.
-SKiNGThey haven't post this update in the announcement section so I don't think it will happen anytime soon.

I am assuming that, like the last patch on 1/28, this patch will begin at midnight PST.
And yes, I want my pink raccoon :).

They prolly wont even release it tonight or tmrw for all we know
im sure they working hard on fixing the skill scroll issue so it can come along with the new patch = longer time for patch to come out

They haven't post this update in the announcement section so I don't think it will happen anytime soon.
But if you look at the Notes that KireiYosei posted on the first page you can see that it specifically said 02.04.08. They didn't post a time so we can't expect it to be right at 12AM of the day of course. That being said... since they did put down the date already they should've told us about the time it would take place. Even if it is delayed they should've said something. I don't mind too much if they tell me if it'll be delayed but for them to not say a single thing regarding it, I don't know. I think that's the least they could do.

Well, it might just be me but I don't like being left in the dark especially when they have told us that there will be an update.
I do hope that whent they do get the patch rolling that there is no bugs with it. It took them that long so it better have been worth it.

02-04-2008, 07:42 PM
yeah i agree with u
OMG bug >
500% exp on the exp card xD
Now wouldnt that be awesome.

Haha, sorry but their bugs are never 'good' for the game. Only something that prevents you from doing certain things... :/

o.O yes they do get paid, its their job.

I am technically paying them through Cash Shop. .__.
That aside, it's obvious people are wondering about the update... so they could give us even a sentence that it's coming. What I would hate is if I used something like the EXP Card only to have the game suddenly go into a patch. And would they compensate for that item? I kinda doubt that.

It's highly unlikely they will put out a patch today. And the thing about the XP card, they won't give it back to you considering this happend to me on a upprupt server downtime and rollback and I wasn't given my xp card back. But alas it's part of the game. They would have posted the time of the downtime so it's not happening today.

What I'm trying to say is that they should've said that it won't happen today then. And as you have experienced, you weren't able to get the card time back so they'd better not do it in-game. It's 8PM PST currently so I'm not going to expect the patch out today but really... they should've said something.

Actually, something was the entire time, but most people have overlooked it. Allow me to quote it.

As it was not to be found in the Announcement Section, the date was not finalized, or at least is not at this time. As with all sections, and this is some generally helpful advice, reading the top posts, or stickies, is usually your best bet in regards to understanding the information in that section.
Thank you for your time.

No, I definitely agree with you. Although I don't want to make the Admins think I'm bashing them, a little heads up would have been nice, considering how often I'm refreshing the cash shop in hopes of finding the update there.

I have to agree with having some notice or even a small...
"We ran into a few problems with the patch which was estimated for today, We are sorry, but will have to push it back and still as of yet have an ETA on when this patch will be released , so please have some patience as we are working on it."
Anything along those lines would surely stop all the bickering and confusion. But then again thats just me :D
