Wondering if I missed anything. Noticed there's been very few DDO Dev posts since Xmas, LOTRO Dev posts seem to be going strong, so it's not a company wide vacation.
Just curious if anyone knows if ours are away somewhere.

The only possible explanation is that something Vast and Mysterious (TM) is going on :)

It's not a vacation, it's just poor customer service. It's on Turbines mission statement.

*See guild ship happenings. See myddo not working. See lack of communication period.*

But on a positive note~ The DDO store hasn't skipped a beat and is working perfect.

Based on what Tolero said in the 200th Episode of DDOCast, there is a news void just before a Lamania preview for whatever the big 5th DDO Anniversary and 2011 plans announcement is.

I am thinking 28 person Raid in 2011. :D

If it's designed for 28 people... I can't even imagine

This is getting a little old now..

Odd numbered updates take a long time. (1,3,5,7,9 for those with English issues.)

This is because they often change *systems*, such as combat, crafting, spells, etc, rather than simply adding new content. They're the "big" updates.

Even numbered updates come shortly after their preceding odd-numbered updates (2 follows 1, 4 follows 3, recent 8 follows 7, etc.)

These are minor bug fixes, but mainly focused on the implementation of 1 new P2P content pack. Other changes will occur, but the content pack is the highlight

Expect Update 9 to take longer. Paaaatience.

They are supposed to be chained to wall. I swear if they chewed the other arm off there's going to be **** to pay. Vacation? During the holidays? Who are you hiring Turbine? People with families and lives? I SAY NAY!!!!

I am eagerly awaiting a dev post about combat changes maybe we'll get a nice post from eladrin about upcoming spell changes.

Hmm, yeah not really complaining or trying to call them out, just noticing that there seems to be (to me anyway) ongoing Dev posts from before/after Xmas in LOTRO , where ours kinda seem to taper off around early to mid December, with very few since, and those only really dealing with sales of the week, the new monster feature etc.

5 year anniversary is coming next month, we'll see a build up soon with new content in a month.

If you ask me this is the perfect time to level that toon you've been neglecting or TR your character back to 20 (again). No new content means grinding is more attractive and your guildies won't be distracted by shiny new toys.

My guess is the epic reboot. That or a new high level quest area.

It is amazing how may hours it takes to unbury a driveway that a plow buried in one second.

One the one hand a news blackout is usually a Bad Thing.

On the other, it's only been a frigging week people. They might actually just be busy.

Tis the problem. My driveway entrance was 4 feet deep of solid ice this morning.

From this comment alone, I'm thinking that the dev team probably isn't working on many winter models for new content.

It's the number.

Remember when the longest time without an update occured in DDO? It was after Mod 8. We went over a year between Mod 8 and DDO:EU with very little communication.

Sooo...what was our last update? Update 8.

Get comfy.

Good to know that they are working on great things. Eldarin, unfortunately the "Plow Guy" is working on his Improved Epic Wall of Ice.. We are about to get more snow in New England.

Thanks

Confirmation that the 'new tech' allows for actual wall spells like wall of ice, wall of stone, etc. !!
