It's the same as last time. The pre-orders will begin in Oct, but the expansion itself will go live with the Nov. update.

So by "once again" you mean "they pull this crap all the time". And therefore, it cannot usually be every 3 months.

And on topic - I'm so..! I... I can't even act excited.

Can we please get some worthwhile awards for those so my LS will get thier shinies while pretending that they want to help me instead of helping me because they want to suck up to the sackholders? .

Re: New Version Update Scheduled for November! (09/24/2009)

Well, I guess I'd better finish off the Moogle Ku'rap missions first. They'd better keep up with these things because people are quitting like crazy on my server.

All the time? For only the second time? If this is the result of the mini-expansions, which are generally regarded as lame fetch quests except by the drooling gear-hounds, and the "anything FF is awesome" crowd, then no more, please.

But this does leave us with the question: what jobs are they going to update?

Will SMN get the new summons... and still be stuck with main heal / astral burn all the way to 75?

Will BST get something to make up for the anti-MPK depop nerf? New jugs? Something to make it useable in lolnamis?

Will they finally add Eihnerjar gear for PUP... a job that was first released in the SAME UPDATE with Eihnerjar? (I personally don't care about this; I was just reading the 'pedia forum thread the other day)

Will WHM finally get a half-decent MP recovery ability that doesn't require you to climb halfway up Nyzul to have a half decent chance at unlocking it? Oh wait, WHM had an update recently too, no chance of this.

Will BLM get an Afflatus / Composure / Innin-Yonin thingy? Or something that'll let them xp on lolibri?

I'm chalking`it up to the translator, because no MMO or gets perfect updates.

Besides we all know its Bethesda that has absolutle no quality assurance, SE at least has it for offline games

Re: New Version Update Scheduled for November! (09/24/2009)

Am I the only one that's noticed that the dagger in the pic looks to be designed in a rather Amano-like style reminicient of Final Fantasy 1 thru 5? Surely I can't be the only one that has caught that...

Props to the design team for continuing to draw inspiration from the previous titles...

But we get to demand RDM melee enhancements every time a version update is announced. I think it's in the ToS somewhere.
