Although this patch has been putting and boiling in the background for some time now, it getting patched today kinda took me by surprise. I can't wait to give it a test-spin on Live, especially with so much cool stuff being added! Big thanks goes out to you guys for keeping this ship floating with patches like this.
I got one question though;
Is next patch gonna be the LE patch?

I'm not, i personally don't like the Auto IP deal, or the new skill window in the least, the new map window leaves much to be desired as well.
hm wonder what that means, re-optimization or fully fledged DirectX 10 engine featuring bump/specular/relief mapping, per-pixel collision detection and breast-bouncing complete with fluid-mechanics (for those that have silicon)?

Patch going on RK1/RK2 Today? Or just test server again? @work..

Auto-IP distribution is a button you click if you want to do it and it stops working at level 20 unless you go edit the GUI files and extend that, so how is that a terrible thing? And what is the problem with the new mapwindow? Have you seen or tried it? It is a hundred times better than the old one for actual use.
It means further optimization and un-spaghettying of the current gamecode, which is quite needed if there's ever going to be a graphics engine update... so it's part of the means to an end far-out in the future.
Yes, patch is going live today. Final patch notes have not yet been posted.Patch going on RK1/RK2 Today? Or just test server again? @work

They actually said that somewhere?
16.3.0 contains a few bits that slipped in from 16.4.0, mostly touching the animation code, so there may be a few minor issues there, but I've not seen any reported crashes or the like, so hopefully Enno's fixed all those
I've a few small gripes about bit of the new UI, but hopefully those can get resolved (not all the new camera stuff is in yet anyway, and they are at least looking into the UI lag that happens at times on opening the skill window).
Obviously the Inferno update is the main feature, and it'll be interesting to see how the PvP missions actually work on live (we can test they work, but testing *how* they work isn't very easy on testlive...)
Anyway, have fun with it... and try not to break it too much
(Now, roll on 16.4.0.1...

With all the cool new stuff in this patch, oddly enuogh the thing that I'm most looking forward to is that my Fixers shoulder pads will fit correctly now.
Here's to hoping that everything goes off without a hitch...
---------------------------------
/me hopes 16.4 includes a new graphics engine, textures and meshes (higher polycount on character models, lets make those heads rounds not squareish! ;p) fixing broken items like the nanomage female engineer chosen backitem in the process!
Anyway, looking forward to this patch. Only thing not good that i've noticed from test is the "lag" when loading the new skillwindow, hopefully they fixed that.
16.4 preliminary patch notes:
- Rewrote game from scratch.

Don't get yer hopes up.
Gravitation is a natural phenomenon by which objects with mass attract one another. But, in everyday life gravity can be a great many other things.

What hopes do you think I have?

An honest question: Will the code-overhaul correct any bugs NTs have?
