There are two jokes in this image. 1 point for guessing one, 5 points for getting both.

Somewhere in Japan the dev team is laughing their asses off right now. Just when I thought the updates couldn't get any shittier. Where are the combat skill merit cap raise or this avatar lol

[Wods]

Wow.. That shit was retarded..

The joke is, there is no joke. They have no clue what players want, and whoever had the idea for /bell should seriously be beaten with a shovel or something because of how completely retarded they are.

Don't you mean more stuff that you could cook if they actually had decent stats. And if we go by past items...

I have full confedince in SE to provide decent food recipies now and in the future.

This will be a great update, we are getting:

1) Wings of the Goddess Missions (Which we paid for)
2) Wings of the Goddess Two Areas (Which we paid for)
3) Wings of the Goddess Armour (Which we paid for)
4) A Moogle Kupo D'Etat (Which we paid for)

5) Higher capped Augmented items
6) New specific weapon augments with new crafting recipies
7) Two new abilities for Ninja
8) Additional Effects on Circle Job Abilities
9) Low to Mid level skill up increases
10) Two new spells for Blue Mages
11) New notes for bells
12) At least one new food recipe
13) Ebisu improved
14) New rune for MMM with Gobbo companion
15) Campaign Union System

Though yes, normally the big news comes a few hours before the actual update, it had best be good .

Edit: Yes I realise we pay for it all, but the first 5 are pack and parcel of expansions we paid for, rest they didn't "need" to do.

This is so fucking pathetic... is it really THAT hard to find out what the community wants at least to a certain degree? They might as well have updated clamming too while they were at it.

[Astarael]

I want the 30 seconds of my life that I spent reading that back. I think I should sue. Any court would rule in our favor if they saw those notes.

[Argettio]

OMGWTF bell update.

That's it, I am leveling ninja to 10 when I get home so I can dual weld that shit!

[BRP]

Lets see how long we can get this thread with each post practically saying the same thing each time.

[Riki]

Then, when I got to Selbina, I was informed the Fish Ranking was closed. so in a way, Fish Ranking won.

Shops beat me all the time.
"This shop is closed"
-wait some more
"This is the shops weekly holyday"
-raaaaaage

But seriously, for a last sneak peek this is really bad.
I'm just hoping for curry buns to be M.Acc or even better MAB food.
And a bomb in the update notes on Monday.
C'mon SE! Meteor and new Avatars.
Set us up the bomb.

Lets see how long we can get this thread with each post practically saying the same thing each time.

Maybe we can have the first BG thread ever with 100% of the posters agreeing on something and have SE replace bells with a vending machine that dispenses D rings and home addresses of the dev team.

[Virtuous Saint]

Lets see how long we can get this thread with each post practically saying the same thing each time.

Best thing would be to delete this tread and forget this was an update detail.

[Blabj]

Well, there's 28000 members. If they all posted in this thread with dissapointment then this would easily be the longest single thread on BG. Not to mention people posting twice or more for PC+1s!

[Imitarate]

the possibilities are limited only by your imagination!

And by the 1.2 second delay cap on bells. This might actually be a lot of fun if it weren't for that; it's way too slow for almost anything though.

[Moosey]

This... can't be real. It just can't be -_-

Is it July Fools in Japan?

Seriously. I'm waiting for them to announce the real sneak peek.

[Therin]

This has to be a joke. . . . .

[Cesaria]

OK - so that's crap.

But I'll give a cookie to the first guy who manages to play Never Gonna Give you up in the middle of Whitegate with the new bells commands.

[BRP]

SE also thinks this to be a rather small update... which is why it is being bundled as a group of three small updates, so that they might be in someway equal to one noticeable one. So, not to bum people out more but what this would tell us is that they must not be adding too much with this update(or at least more than what we've seen) considering they could not fill up a bunch of update notes with entirely big updates.

I have to consider that the possibility of these DLC bundles eating up more resources than they say. Though complaining about them would be pointless, I might be the only one in this thread so far who didn't buy the previous one and won't buy any of them.

[Ayn]

I'm more amused that they view called the Ebisu rod "The Mythic of fishing" or whatnot.

I'm a bit confused.

I thought the Ebisu rod was actually good and not a phenomenal waste of time?
