Not 100% sure, but I think it's another patch, and I believe it's the first NA that you get both Asmodyians and Elyos (not sure on spelling) but I dunno.  Oh and the Abyss!

As you said, the level 25 cap (meaning you can get into the abyss and pvp I believe). Plus they have claimed some server performance/stability improvements and various quest/text bugfixes. 

If you had a character in CB3, it should still be there for CB4. (And so on through all the closed betas, I believe. Then full wipes on open beta and then on release.)

So either 'nothing major' or 'omg pvp' depending on your point of view.

I'm actually curious to see how the server performance fixes work out.  Lag and rubber banding last time were pretty bad and I think this is something that may have an impact on their release.  Looking forward to that!

Thats why its a beta, they run stress tests on servers to see what they can take.

If anyone quits the game before an official release I say good riddens, one less moron I'll need to deal with in game.

 

Its like saying you dont want to buy a car when theres nothing but the frame put together.

 

However this beta they have said that server performance will be stable.

Stable....

Do they give a definition of what stable is to them?

Because stable might be "not crashing but rubber banding every second" or "lag issues but moderate quality without crashing"....

Because when I hear stable I think "No lag on server side, idiots with lower rigs on clientside will still have lag, and call it server side lag, no rubber banding, no delayed actions"

But that might not be what their stable is....

I think the servers performed worse this time around. Everyone still seemed to gather on 2 of the 4 servers.  Was  better Sunday than Saturday though. As far as english voices I have grown kind of attached to the korean ones at this point.
