Getting rid of the delay will be nice and hopefully summoning will be fixed. Honestly though as one of the idiots that killed the undead burg merchant, I'm glad to see regular arrows at a lot more merchants because it sucked going through half the game with nowhere to buy cheap arrows.

I spend most of my gold on ammo, since I really have nothing else to spend it on other than repairs and the small amount of upgrades I do.

Given I play on what I assume are Australasian servers (being in Australia)

I find it highly unlikely that they would release a patch for one region but ignore others. Tho I could be wrong

It's world wide matchmaking... i'd think we'd all get it at the sametime.

Are you completely sure? So we play with Japs? How do we know when we go against one, I've seen some weird account names but none that were written in japanese. Not sure how it will come out as for us to see.

As a hardcore Gears player and frequent Epic forums visiter. Gears 3 had servers put in for us. after a cetain time of night, you would start to see some pretty odd gamertags, that have English names in them, but dont make sense.

like "windcobra" or flat out asian names like "kourshinmusameXL" etc etc. after a while you start to learn the "style" of gamertags.

So Aussies were being lumped into Asian/Japan servers, where as Americans constantly kept getting Europe/Mexico.
We also had the same issues for Battlefield BC2. we would be placed into Japanese servers.
Servers dont meen lag free gaming, as you still have to connect with something thats 10,000 km away.

anyway, what I'm eventually getting to is that Australians generally seem to be paired with Asians when it comes to all sorts of multiplayer games. so for them to release a patch, and give it to only one region and segregate the rest, I find it pretty doubtful. In all honesty, there is probably 3 main server areas.
North/South America. Europe. Australasia. Star Craft has something pretty similar from memory.

edit. very few Japanese gamertags are written in Kanji or Katakana or whatever. but sometimes their Bios are (this is done on a PC and cut and pasting script to your profile). I dont think the Xbox has an option to create a gamertag in non english symbols/letters??

In that case there's a small chance it'll go out to everyone at the same time. I'll be on most of the night though so if it was in 3 hours then only a couple more to go until we find out :>

I can shed a little light on the bad translation by playing with google translate. Seoul and soul seem to use the same characters, so I'll replace that.

(edit) copied wrong line lol. fixed.

Adjust the amount of losses to the enemy when retrieving Soul


That's the best thing I can come up with... so it will take some souls out of your bloodstain maybe? That would be cool imo. Or does it say somewhere how many times you've died?

Idiot.

The patch will appear on your beloved Xbox as well. For the time being, only the PS3 was mentioned because there is NO Xbox version in Japan and From Software don't have any presence outside Japan. They self-published the game in their territory as a PS3 exclusive and left the rest to their publisher so it makes sense for them to not mention any Xbox details.

This is where Namco will jump in.

I'm stoked about the input delay fix too. As a melee build using mostly a zweihander it really fucked me over a few times.

also the pvp fix too...can't wait to get invaded some more so I can practice

No, you will have to restart the game and as soon as it is released it will automatically download and install before you start. It will not notify you - if you're already online - until you restart.

@Incarmine: Yes, you can.

Patch is live in Japan. No word on USA or other countries, I'm guessing the patches will be a few hours apart.

Apparently they nerfed Pyromancy a bit, not sure if it's just a plain nerf or if itcan scale like INT, but here's a video of someone with the patch installed comparing damage:

i think it's stupid they nerfed pyro...i didn't hear a lot of people saying pyro was too OP for pvp...i only saw people say it's hella powerful but so slow and hard to hit people that it wasn't too hard to deal with. maybe pryo was making single player too easy.

Wow.. this is great stuff. I'm extremely excited/anxious for the U.S. release of the patch.

If only they would buff a couple bosses (Gaping Dragon, Pinwheel), but I can't complain. Someone please post when they know it's been released elsewhere.

I do believe that's why it was nerfed. If you watch any speed-run videos, or videos from players completing the game at SL 1 (or around there) they are all pyromancers, and they all use Iron Flesh. I'm sure FROM didn't want Pyromancy to make the game THAT much easier, so it's getting nerfed. I'm sure it will still be very effective when leveled, though.

As far as armor's go, apparently:

Antiquated skirt = nerf
Elite Knight Armor Set = nerf
Eastern Armor = buff
Ornstein's set = buff?
Silver Knight set = buff?

This is what has been said on some other forum so not sure if these are exactly true
