Thanks again, everyone, for your feedback, and we look forward to hearing from more of you in the coming days. We've now closed Lamannia for this preview. We expect to get another build to Lamannia in the coming weeks, and will have more information on that as we get closer to re-opening Lamannia.

How does this translate to "delayed"? There hasn't been a date set yet and we weren't expecting it this week.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Yeah this is typical. They open lama, get feedback, say thanks for feedback, act like they might change something according to feedback, re-release same lama update few weeks later, then live release buggy update. Same shit different update.

I'm not going to dig through dev posts, but I thought U32 was going to be released in August.  Then monk got removed from it, which should have made things easier rather than harder.  And now it's set for September.

Don't get me wrong, I'm the first person who would tell them to take their time and not release buggy piles of crap as seems to be their SOP.  I'm just relaying the timeline as I understood it to be.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

And someone in another thread called ME delusional recently!

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

Not a dev post, it was from Ask the devs on the podcast.  Sev said that they were shooting for an end of August release, but if things weren't ready by then U32 would come 2nd or 3rd week in September.  This looks to me like confirmation that it won't be coming at the end of August, hence OP.

1) Set release target for late August
2) Remove a major portion in Monk pass / unarmed update
3) New release date: Tentatively September 13th
4) ...
5) Profit?  (i.e. sell NewCC collectables in the store)

I love how they pull a huge portion entirely from the release and still manage to miss the target date by a half month.

come on monkey is not even a large portion... how can it be a huge portion ?

note : I hate button mashing, as such I hate monkeys... i made one to test, and then went pretty fast to something else.
Monkey reach 20, and got TRd asap into something else.

I'm a big fan of slow down and get it right, or in Turdbin's case, slow down and put off the damage  Grin
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

Just let people know when it goes into effect, and not "It was today."  I have a few things to make but I don't want to end up throwing away a bunch of useless shards.

My understanding was that the target date was always Sept. 13th.

So this changes basically nothing.

At this point I'm content if they just focus on getting fewer things (basically) right and don't bite off more than they can chew.

So Monks, Favoured Souls and whatever can wait for their own dedicated pass/ update and they will (hopefully) suck a lot less than they currently do, and won't get a cursory turd-polishing.

Note: It will, of course, get a turd-polishing. But they'll use a better quality polish.
