To be perfectly honest, I'm kind of disappointed.
The 2 remaining lattices are crucial in getting a unified message in the game, as to what direction it is going... and when I saw that SOE was pushing the Amerish lattice forward without it's base changes, I was quite pleased. I am tasked in my outfit with being the one who runs down all the information on PS2 development. I generate predictions and pass judgement on when things are going well and when they are not. Currently we have gone a solid month and a half now without a really big content release... and I'm beginning to loose confidence in there being one this month as much as things have been continued to be pushed back over the past 2 months... This makes it very difficult for me to keep moral in my outfit up, because many members are staying in off of future game potential.
I mean from where I am sitting now, if the Esamir lattice is going to undergo testing on the Test server (Which is the only reason I can see it being put up there) then it'll be a While before we see it IG... most assuredly not GU13. Which means the much maligned Esamir lattice will be pushed back further. The Amerish lattice, while incomplete because it didn't have base changes... still, that was a BIG step in the right direction for SOE. Even if it wasn't going to have it's base changes, it showed that it was at least in a state that could go live... and it would be Content that would satisfy people who need something new.
The more things like the lattices get pushed back, the more battle islands get pushed back, the more Hossin gets pushed back, the more the resource revamp gets pushed back, the more Continental lattice gets pushed back.
Yeah this is a little ranty, but as I said... while the update to recommended helps, and I think this will help offset some of those pop issues... while I was really looking forward to this update on Monday, today I'm not even sure I want to log on.
