Bien ! La mise à jour 1.7 approche à grand pas et je vous joins ci dessous la liste des changements pour qu'on discute de ce qui va arriver !

Update notes for 1.7
**These notes do not necessarily reflect the final version that will be deployed on Live**
NEW!
* We have enabled the first two new Issue 7 story missions for testing! Please visit Carmen Preda in The Besieged Farmlands to begin testing “Who Horrifies the Horrors?” and “A Trail of Breadcrumbs”. Be sure to leave your feedback in the Update 1.7 forum! NOTE : The mission has some placeholder text at this time, and the cinematics and art assets are not yet included in their final form.
* The first two new item missions are also included for testing. At this time they have placeholder titles and text.
GENERAL
* An issue causing players’ screens to remain black after finishing cinematics has been resolved.

* Added a heal over time effect to all practice Demons.

COMBAT
* Beatdown will no longer apply its knockback effect to subsequent attacks.
* Paradigm Shift has been redesigned. It now provides a 30% chance to gain the Minor Hit Chance effect whenever you apply the Weakened state. The reason for this change is to differentiate it from Call Your Shots.
* Fatal Flourish has been redesigned. It now builds 1 Fatal Flourish counter every time you apply the Afflicted state. When the count reaches 8 the next attack will penetrate and reset the count. The reason for this change is to make it different than the Dark Potency passive.
* Exploitation has been updated to provide a 33% chance to cleanse 1 effect from yourself whenever you hit a Hindered target. The reason for this change is to make it different than the Perjury passive.
* Increased the damage dealt by the Sudden Return passive ability.

* Fixed an issue which caused the stun component of Art of War to trigger even when the damage was evaded or glanced.

* Tooltips for barrier effects will now show the current value left on the barrier instead of showing the full value.

DUNGEONS

Il y a moyen de revoir le teste live ?

[Dravel]

Donc cela signifie visiblement qu'il n'y aura que deux nouvelles missions mais pas de nouveau pack payant ? Ou alors ces deux missions en font partie ?

[Frère Casto]

J'ai plutôt l'impression que pour le moment ils ne testent que les deux premières missions du futur DLC...

[Ar Men Du]

* We have enabled the first two new Issue 7 story missions for testing! Please visit Carmen Preda in The Besieged Farmlands to begin testing

Là on ne test que les deux premières. Ça n'augure en rien de ce qu'il y aura ou aura pas en finalité. Dont le fort probable DLC

A ne jamais oublié:

**These notes do not necessarily reflect the final version that will be deployed on Live**

[Wespel]

Moi je note surtout un énorme nerf des pistols et des attaques de rafales...

On se fait chier à faire des petits coups qui sont davantage réduits que les gros par les protections physiques et magiques, et au final on a pas le droit d'avoir les avantages... Par contre je suis sûr que les chances de déviés/bloqués sont toujours supérieures aux coups uniques.

[-IKOS-]

les seuls truc qui ne seront pas payant, c'est les résolutions de bug, les différents ajustement d'arme , et aussi les fonctions de cabale

le reste est DLC

[Dravel]

Oui vous avez évidemment raison, j'avais lu trop vite et raté le "first", du coup je pensais qu'il n'y avait que 2 missions et je me disais que ça faisait un peu léger comme contenu.

Merci de la clarification.

tiens t'as bloqué sur le même truc que moi, comme par hasard. Triste pour petit calibre :/
pour compléter le tableau le coup octroyé par le passif de cran de sécurité ôté voit ses dégâts réduits dans la foulée.

sinon pas fan non plus du coup de la Visée Mortelle qui peut maintenant se chevaucher (enfin c'est comme ça que je comprends "Deadly Aim’s duration will now be refreshed when reapplied"), j'appréciais qu'il faille un minimum de rigueur pour poser son buff. (pourquoi uniquement visée mortelle d'ailleurs? on pouvait faire se chevaucher la décharge perfo? je demande, vu que je ne joue à peu près jamais au pompe, j'en sais rien).

[Wespel]

Avec Cette update, je pense que je vais aller jeter mon fusil d'assaut sans le brasier de la vieille Normal Creed, Peut être même mon chaos et mes guns.

Si vous me cherchez, je serais dps marteau/pugilat.

[edhiltir]

Même si ça nerf mon arme de prédilection, je préfère voir ça comme équilibrage plutôt qu'un up d'autres pouvoirs.

Ca entame moins la difficulté du jeu

[Aragnis]

Je joue depuis moins d'une semaine et je vais déjà bientôt être nerfé .

[Karmacoma]

ben le manque de CD sur tear gaz etait un bug de longue date...

[-IKOS-]

bas on jouera en tank au pompe
c'est déjà pas si mal

[Anakior]

Au vu de l'état sur le test server, j'ai pris un peu peur quand même^^.

Mais visiblement, si on se réfère au quarter report, le dlc sortira cet été. Du coup, on respire un peu.

Ceci étant dit, cela permet de voir le rythme qu'ils vont adopté à présent. Soit un dlc tous les quatre mois environ. Restes plus qu'à voir le contenu final pour savoir à peu prés où on peut se situer en terme de contenu.

[allensan]

Je trouve dommage que ce qui était les plus grosses promesses de contenu de TSW ne soient pas respectés.

Il était prévue un contenu par mois , maintenant c'est 4 mois (d'accord ils sont plus gros comme le caire qui fait la taille de 2 ancien contenu, mais on y gagne pas au change ).

La zone de tokyo , elle a disparus ? prévue pour janvier à la base.

TSW est un bon jeu qui n'a pas eu le succès mérité mais j'ai peur qu'a moyen terme, le fait de pas tenir leur engagement tue le jeu a petit feu.

[Wespel]

En fait de ma fenêtre c'est :

Juillet : Pas assez de joueurs -> Réduction de personnel. Update tous les 2 mois au lieu d'un.
Décembre : Pas assez de joueurs -> Buy to play. Update tous les 3 mois.
Mars : Pas assez de joueurs -> Relocalisation en un seul lieu des équipes. Update tous les 4 mois.

On est effectivement sur une pente constante depuis la sortie du jeu. Mais ce n'est pas leur non respect de l'engagement qui coule le jeu. C'est le fait que le jeu coule qui les empêche de respecter leur engagement. (A mon sens, et bien sûr ça a un effet d'engrenage)

Enfin, pour nous projeter un peu plus loin, nous planchons également déjà sur la nouvelle fonctionnalité de contenu répétable prévue pour l'épisode 8. Tout commencera par une convocation du Conseil de Venise qui vous permettra de découvrir son quartier général pour la toute première fois. Une fois là, vous serez soumis à divers exercices d'entraînement visant à déterminer si vous êtes prêts à endurer les terribles épreuves qui vous attendent à Tokyo.

Annonce faite début Mai.

[Peredur]

Il y a eu les 5 premiers ajouts sur 6 mois.
Le retard le plus notable sur cette première phase était dû à la première phase de la restructuration, durant le mois d'août.
Puis il y a eu un retard notable pour le 6° ajout notamment dû à la seconde phase de restructuration impliquant pas mal de déménagements.
Et désormais c'est long car l'équipe tourne sur 3 jeux. Donc au mieux un ajout tous les 3 mois.

Il n'y a pas eu de pente constante à mes yeux. Il y a eu un constat initial avec des décisions prises, appliquées en deux fois. Et des conséquences subies brutalement à chacune de ces applications.

D'accord avec toi même si la pente commence petit à petit à se stabiliser. Je ne pense pas qu'ils sont à tenir responsable. Ce sont les évènements qui le sont. Malheureusement pour eux et pour nous.

Une question que je me pose c'est quelle sera le rythme une fois qu'ils auront usé tous les assets crées par la vieille équipe.

Car là, ils sont encore entrain d'utiliser les trucs développés par les équipes avant la restructuration. Du coup, j'ai un peu/beaucoup peur de ce que cela sera plus tard.

[Anankée]

La restructuration a été fini mi mai, on peut ptet espérer que ça aille un peu plus vite d'ici là.

[Mysthara \Grodubid]

Se plaindre du contenu ajouté est un peu fort de café. Ce jeu a été cassé dés le début pas les détracteur du système à abonnement et les déçu de AOC (jeu qui tourne tjrs par ailleurs) et n'a donc pas eut les ventes auxquelles il aurait dû avoir.
Il ne faut pas s'étonner qu'il y aie eut ralentissement des MAJ.
La plus belle revanche de ce jeu serait qu'il perdure, ça mettrait une fois de plus le nez dans le caca des détracteurs qui n'ont pas sur reconnaître un bon jeu au milieu de la marée des m... habituelles.
Juste pour mémoire, Funcom à les jeux qui durent depuis le plus longtemps sur la scene du MMO => AO, AOC.
Combien de jeu on la même durée de vie ???
Je préfère un contenu plus rare mais de qualité que des ajouts à la petite semaine. Même si aujourd'hui, je l'avoue, je tourne un peu en rond.

[Sizyphe]

Mui y'a vraiment rien d'autres de potable en ce moment et si TSW n'était pas sortit à l'heure actuelle je serai toujours sur un autre jeu Funcom => AOC que j'ai stop pour la release de TSW (mais sinon il était encore bien peuplé AOC en juillet 2012).

[-IKOS-]

nouveau patch 1.7

NEW!
* A new story mission is available for testing! In addition to the previous two story missions which were enabled in the last update, we have now enabled When the Hatchet Falls. If you have completed the first two story missions, you should be able to get this mission from Tibor. (If this does not work, you may need to recomplete the first two story missions to get this mission).
* A new item mission called "Dead Chamber" is now open for testing! The mission is a work in progress, but the basic functionality is present in this version. This mission has a twist - the only way to get to this mission is to meet a special requirement during the course of playing the new story mission. If you do not see the item mission while doing When the Hatchet Falls, it is not a bug! (If you absolutely must know what the secret requirement is, send Haven a PM).


GENERAL
* Added a new dressing room slot for head accessories.
* Disabled group invites when in the barber chair or plastic surgery table.
* Send Report button should now be visible even when the mission tracker is disabled.
* (Testlive) Fixed player transparency when zoomed into first person camera.
* Disabled zooming in to locked clusters on the Ability Wheel.
* The playfield sequin vendors have received a new item of commerce.


COMBAT
* (TESTLIVE) Reduced the critical and penetration chance penalty on multi-hit abilities.
* Momentum buff from the Hammer skill can no longer be canceled.
* Fixed a tooltip error in the Striker ability.
* (TESTLIVE) Elemental Force now removes the buff when it has been spent.
* Imprint will now trigger even if an attack is queued after Whip It Good.



ITEMS
* (TESTLIVE) Signet of Fury will now gain 1 stack per attack instead of per hit.




PVP
El Dorado
* Anima Residue is now removed as soon as you start casting an ability.

Un message de Joel Bylos concernant la sortie de l'episode 7 :

Publié par Nusquam

Still shooting for June. IF we slide, it will be very very early July.

Il se garde malgré tout une porte de sortie.... Espérons que ça soit quand même la semaine prochaine.
