That's pretty quick after U32.  Interesting.  But then they need to get U33 out in the next 3 weeks for the Night Revels festival to be live during Halloween.

Looking forward to that.
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Is it worth farming night revels for the "spooky" festival augments? I want the +2 wisdom/+2 int augments, they cost entirely too many AS. But on the flip side, if it takes 50 hours of gaybar to farm them I don't think I care...
  

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.

Why do they need U33 for night revels?  I am not sure I see the connection, or was something mentioned about updates to NR being in U33?  I am also curious as to the value of NR stuffs these days....

U33 is coming in october, U34 in December.

From the producer's letter:

Quote:
Our goal is to release two updates before the end of the year. One of the updates will be larger, the other smaller, and combined they'll bring several things that players have long asked for to DDO. Since we are currently working on two updates, it isn't clear yet what will be in each update. We'll release things when they are ready, so if something isn't ready in time for next month, we'll see if we can finalize it for the following update in December.

Here's the list of Things We’re Working On:

~ Updated Night Revels event: First up, we’re working on an update to The Night Revels, our Halloween-themed event which debuted last year. We’re planning to add a couple of new quests along with a handful of new items that will focus on cosmetic fun. We’re expecting the updated Night Revels to debut later in October.


Two updates, one next month (October, at the time).  One in December.

Yup.  I think that makes the schedule feel more cramped than it really is.

This makes it very scary, if they need three months to fuck up something what can they do within one?

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.

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.

I'll try to explain.  You see, Monk stuff was hard, and so it got pushed back for years.  Multiple and systemic bugs with the interactions between handwraps and everything else were ignored, because it was just too hard to fix.

Then when they actually committed to fixing it things were still too hard, so they pushed back again and again.  And again.

And now?  Nothing has changed.  That mountain?  Sisyphus is still facing it.  Monks are still too hard for them to fix.  You can't ignore an actual problem and expect that it'll be fixed while you're off drinking...  No elves are going to come in in the middle of the night and make your shoes for you while you sleep.

So prepare yourself either for a punt or a fail or for yet another push back.

Well, I don't doubt that, but it looks like the monk update is coming in U33, hopefully the handwrap fix too...  but since the original question was "when will we see the monk update?" to which Jerry replied U33 on lama next week, I am going to assume at the monk update is there, and maybe the wrap fix too... which I am fully prepared for them to say "all of you wraps are junk now" go farm for the  new ones...

They will say this regardless. For all gear. They've been saying it constantly. It's basically their whole theory of game design.

That and "Slap an extra 100k-400k hitpoints on a rat; call it epic".

They are kinda sorta saying that all your wraps will still be useful.  Take that with whatever grain of salt you like.

They still have bugs from U32, you can't melt anything that doesn't have a scaling effect.  You'd think that this would be included in their emergency maintenance, but since it harms rather than hurts players nope.

That's kinda my point.  Updates should be just that, new and exciting stuff for the players.  Bug fixes should be ongoing, and wedged in wherever they thought a downtime was appropriate (and since they do downtime in the middle of the day, that would be any time).

I can see rolling bug fixes in with updates, if they are close together.  The two teams should not be stepping on each other after all and some modicum of version control needs to be maintained.  But this is Turbine we are talking about so who are we kidding with this discussion of version control and separate teams for bug removal and development?
