Patch 1.17b Notes

[Vuitton]

sudo apt-get command_interface_update

[Spider-Dan]

Maybe I'm just full on retard, but could someone really explain this new targetting BS to me? I've read the notes like 3 times and it's only confused me even more.

Seconded. I don't see any difference between /tmode a and /tmode c.

[Celeras]

Seconded. I don't see any difference between /tmode a and /tmode c.

You can't change from <all> in targetmode c. Should be fairly obvious.

[CasualPlayer]

The game has been out for how long? And they are still working on targeting commands? Yea....

Agree with this. 8months is just too long to have a game of this nature and still be in the development stages. As much as I wanted this game to be a colossal success I can't see it as anything but a niche game at this point.

That's what my initial thought was, but I figured, "No, that's too stupid. There's just got to be some other purpose for it."

Exactly. Stuff like this makes me think that there is nothing that will turn this game around at this point. This reminds me of Warhammer where almost a year after launch, there were still UI bugs and other things hindering the general performance of the game. It was assumed we'd be hearing about expansion talks etc after the first year but instead, they are fixing UI and command bugs. /sigh

[Kurokikaze]

Welp... its gonna be a long 2-3 weeks till 1.18.

[Kurokikaze]

Apparently the update files aren't big updates being store till next month. They are just making you download the entire patch over for an incremental update.

That increment is the difference between this patch and the last. So about 7 megs? Don't remember what the last one was.

We don't have over a 1GB in files updated since September. We have about 310+/-mb because we keep downloading patches over and over. The +/- indicates the change in sizes between patches.... Thats rather unnecessary.

[Kuya]

Kuro, are you using that AV sarcastically?

[Olo401]

Wait what?

What happened??

"1.18 is going to be relatively bigger than previous patches."

Today's patch is 1.17b - that's what happened.

[Kurokikaze]

Hrm what? ;x

Edit: Ohhh avatar. Nope, I actually have hope in Yoshi-P to save the Titanic. lol

[Draylo]

I think if they managed to turn this around, hopefully with the job system and battle update, PS3 release will make or break this game in terms of success.

Whatever it reminds you of, the circumstances are as far from each other as can be.

Even if we had gotten something else from this patch, it would have been simply stuff from 1.18 released early.

But why am I even bothering, people obviously need to let out their frustrations and talk about topics that got old half a year ago. Go on.

So PS3 will make or break this game? Hm, intriguing...

god this makes me fearful that this is the ONLY way they can update their pisspoor excuse of an engine, to completely replace LARGE chunks of irrelevant files in one go everytime. So I'm expecting us to have to download those same files over...and over...and over until they fix the awesome sauce that is "Crystal Tools"

I can see the burden of carrying the game is weighing heavy on you. I hope you fare well in your good fight!

[Hyan]

There have been 10 and 15mb patches before.

So fear for the worst!

Why, thank you!

If they'd fix the updater it wouldn't be too bad. 300MB when the game is down for 2+ hours isn't that big of a deal.

[Spider-Dan]

You can't change from <all> in targetmode c. Should be fairly obvious.

You can't change filters in tmode a either:

[dev1035] Target filter cycling has been removed from targeting mode A, and targeting mode C adde.

[Kenshiin]

Targetmode A is for gamepad users, you can only change the target type with the gamepad under A. Targetmode B is for keyboard users, you can use the arrow keys to change the target type. Targetmode C doesn't let anyone change the target type, it will always be set to "All".

Good lord you are annoying, its an opinion, just like the many you shit out on the FFXIV section of this forum. People have differing opinions, get over it.
