I actually like seeing a new patch on the way, even if they do cause irritaions in the first few days until another fix, mod of the patch content.
On the Good Side:
1. quest NPCs have identifying name color.
2. added quests in inferno, I hear those in the high game have something to do now lol
3. the pop ups about new ip/ perks is good too especially for newer players (first time I played i didnt know how to see ip or use them until like level 12 O.o)
4. new patches are always good because it PROVES that funcom still cares about this 'ancient' game TY FC as much as we complain we feel safe to pay a year ahead knowing your not gonna scrap the AO servers to make room for a new coffeemaker (played other mmorpg's and still this is my very fav!)
On the bad side however:
1. the ip menu could use larger buttons (we spend enough time allocation points in the old system, why make it harder to hit the tiny buttons?)
2. MY MOST ANNOYING AND I KNOW IM NOT ALONE, THE SCROLL WHEEL FOR ZOOM. CAN IT BE TOGGLED ON/OFF PLEASE? (I play a doc and I use my wheel to move the side scrolled windows around to see different stats without filling my whole screen up... ALOT of people are going to die because I zoomed way far into that heckler instead of finding that heal nano in the nick of time.)
But as I said as much as we complain we love seeing updates, it makes us feel loved
