While this is very awesome and i'm really happy for all you TSW players, this issue should have been released already last month. Now, while that's not much of a problem at all, this means there's stil issue 3 which Funcom themeselves said would be releasing this month. I really hope they can still pull it off, but at this time, i don't know. Also, Rocker Launcher FTW.

It's the ultimate catch-22, they release on schedule wiht issues, everyone complains that they should have waited and fixed issues, they wait to fix issues, everyone complains the patch was late.

If people are so upset the patch was late they "could have" logged on pts and helped identify bugs.

Playing on the test server and then repeating the same content on the live server just doesn't do it for some.

Most of the QQ on the forums wasn't about the update coming late. It was the fact that they kept saying tomorrow when most of us would rather they have just said it will take an extra week to begin with.

i don't understand why people complains about 2 weeks of delay for this amazing update of this amazing game. didn't you wait for months to they fix major bugs of your old crappy games?

great job funcom, go ahead!

Impressive, most impressive. 

Now let me try all that in-game. :)

Well, there were some connectivity/server issues yesterday, I didn't encounter them much, just two 5s lags, but seen others having a bit trouble. Hopefully today will be easier. Rocket launcher is amazing 'fun', I used it meantime at NM and tank nearly died because I was shooting at mobs with a rocket (about 130dmg on my healer gear!). I was enjoying this like squirrel enjoys hugging hazelnuts. :D

Barber and face surgeon is nice, especially the place for surgery in New York, freaking me out a bit. New hairs are awesome, face options not so much - they doesn't make much change IMO. 

Overall, some delays doesn't bother me. If I wanted to wait for Aion update... announced in Feb, added finally on EU servers... last month. I feel better with Funcom's 'delays', lol.
