What they probably mean is there's an activity which will use the craft skill of fishing. This may include or may not include the following activities: tournament fishing (If you've been playing WOW recently, then you'd know what that would involve), expanded areas where you can fish, possibility of being able to fish rare/ex items (not sure how that would work), expanding that quest in Selbina so that very rare fishes could yield very rare items, etc.

yeah, they would be "comments from the developers on upcoming changes," but JP website had it a little more detailed as to what will be provided.
Remember that recent FFXI convention in Texas? There were hints dropped about changes made that would affect the BLM job class and there might be other changes as well. Now, the battle system is not limited to fighting exp mobs, but can be expanded to include any and all end game activities. I'll be the first to go out on the cutting board and say that changes may be made that might make some people unhappy and other people happier.

Re: Next Version Update ind December!

I agree, but also since Garuda is only mentioned in the Chat Box players could easily write that off as a message coming from another Summoner in the area. So it does make sense to give that warning.

not to mention it says "Diabolos" in the upper-right of the log window, where the hp bar for the avator is sitting.

Yeah, that was kind of part of my backing to why I made that statement. I just didn't spend the time explaining it all

Re: Next Version Update ind December!

I think Feenicks was being sarcastic. Anyways this all looks very interesting. Thanks for the translation bside. I'm especially interested in developer's giving their intentions for the updates...

Re: Next Version Update ind December!

If Dynamis-Valkurm is 30-ish, then what I notice is coming true.

More stuff is becoming available to low-level players.
Remember, you couldn't do much under 60. Not even the Zilart Missions. Maybe some questing here and there, but that's it.

However, with the release of Chains of Promathia, you could start on the story at Lv.30, gain 10 levels, do more, gain 10 levels, do more, gain 10 more, do more... You pretty much had an opportunity to experience about half of CoP under Lv.60.

Of course, we can only wait to see what will happen in December's update.

I always thought you could do alot before level 60, Remember when I started the game the cap was level 50. After I beat the Shadow Lord for the first time. I thought the game was pretty much done. I did so much before level 60 it was crazy. I also only had AF1 sword for months since the other quests wernet available yet. Theres TONS to do before 60, as I did them.



AS far as the update goes...I'll play Psychic and predict what will happen that day......

/em Tazirai rubs temples channeling psionic powers.

"I see....update messages on the forums....."
"I se..see.....complaints becasue maintenance has been extended..... i see..."
"I see......EVERYONE logging on to POL at once attempting to update....."
"I see.....player threads complaining on the forums because they can't online...."
"I see.....Myself.....whoa...waiting for the day after update to update ^^..."

That's no news grizzle, they said there were going to be three new jobs during the SE party thing, they also said during the party they would show us those three jobs, i bet that was just a cheap shot >.>
