any word on the patch from Testlive?

[Michizure]

So this patch includes the increased number of account slots,

and the changes to the number of shade spirits that can be combined with betas to make alphas?

But not the removal of phasefront points? (that is for the patch after this one?) or did I misunderstand it?

Var

You are correct.

The changes you mentioned (and the others mentioned here) are slated for this upcoming patch.

The 18.7 patch will be a larger update and contain the changes to the Phasefront points, in addition to other fun things. We don't have an exact ETA on 18.7 at this time, but will provide advance notice, as it'll have a larger impact (e.g. the loss of Phasefront points).

We decided to make a new patch for Testlive before moving these changes onto Live. I am hoping that we can get this onto Testlive within the week, and then to Live soon after, barring any...unforeseen consequences.

So there is a TL patch planned beyond the one patched in on April 18th?

Yes, that is correct. We created the build/patch today to be shipped to our internal QA servers. Once it is cleared for Testlive, this patch will then move onto there.

So the patch wont hit live last week, or this week as you said, if you were a betting man? :P

I believe is waaaaaaaaay to premature to talk about or work on 18.7 when we dont even have an ETA on 18.6.2, lets try to focus on this ok?
We all know team is smaller and working on more projects so lets try to keep it simple and work on the task at hand. Planning ahead is not Funcom's strong point.

Thank you for letting us know there is another testlive patch coming, i do hope we can see the info on that also on the testlive board.

18.7 has been on internal servers for a long time, it is not too early to work on that

It's rather necessary for the way software development works to have these split branches.

we stil talkin abt funcom right?

[Mastablasta]

Yes. How do you expect they would work on new engine and new player experience without having a split branch? :|

the simple and honest answer here would be , they arent . but i will play along.
i did some looking up on developing projects and i have to admit i was in the wrong, branching its essential. my bad
