That's what I thought too.

Those patch notes are just a taster. Considering bug fixes have always been at the very start of previous patch day patch notes we haven't seen the full notes yet. |

These are CCP patch notes. They have incomplete information, but I'd attribute that to incompetence rather than it being a 'taster'. Because really, taster patch notes would be a ******* stupid thing to do.
You think giving a taster of what the full changes and tweaks is stupid to do to a community that cries and bangs their heels, like an infant in full roar, at the littlest suggestion of change Giving enough to satiate some of the hunger for info without giving it all away till the release day is a extremely fine art most media businesses use. Its called building anticipation, as well as what I mentioned already, the desire to not release information that people will take in a negative light until they've had a chance to actually get hands on time with the new and improved medium.
You've been here long enough where I'll put it down to bad memory that taster patch notes is exactly what we got many a time before. Maybe you'll call them incomplete patch notes due to ineptitude on CCP's part. Maybe even, and this is the most likely, the full notes don't get released until patch day because CCP are still working on the details. As it stands they're already working on a hotfix for issues that they already know are in the day one 1.8 patch. Why the hell would they release all details before patch day when they already know of some issue and are actively looking for others. Cop on |
