Multiple Gender and Shape Changing Bug Fixes:
All localized text related to a character will use the gender of that character's unchanged form. For example, Jane, a female character playing as Batman in a Legends simulation doing a /shake emote will show up in the chat log as "Jane shakes her fist."
Shape changes that automatically switch to male or female versions based on the gender of the person being changed will now use the unchanged gender, instead of gender of the current form they are in, so the evil toy shape change on a female character will always be the girl toy form, even if that was used while in a male form (like nature gorilla or wolf forms).
The correct, unchanged gender will be used when adding a new style of an item to a character's style list.
Female characters reverting out of a male shape change form and not wearing a shirt over a skin type that requires a bra will correctly wear the sports bra.
Fixed a bug where male characters not wearing a shirt reverted out of a female shape change form and incorrectly tried to force them to wear a sports bra. Because of a related bug, this situation used to cause a server crash.

Im picking on WoW btw because its the beast that made all of this possible
I haven't gotten in the game yet, its still patching XD if I had known I would have set it to patch remotely.
I'll give a good rundown in abouuut... 30 minutes.
Oh lord!!! 2.1 gb of patch. Now thats what i call a patch.. go SOE lol.

Finished patching but server isn't back up yet. Hopefully it won't be down all night.
im done patching but there is no server to select
Yup, I have the same problem... thought it would be fixed with a few relogs, sure enough, its widespread, lots of people posting about it on the forums.
If you skipped (ala held the mouse button in at the start) the intro stuff you may run into the server down bug. Just reload the game and let it run until the character creation is shown. Seems to fix it about 90% of the time for me.
Help me Bioware, you're my only hope.
Is ToR going to be good? Dude it's Bioware making a freaking star wars game, all signs point to awesome. -G4tv MMo report.
Nah they just brought up the PvE server, the PvP server is still down, the PvE server is locked though. Guess they are still working on it.
that list is 3 times longer than the first patch notes ffxiv had....after release. and this is still in beta....guess not all devs in beta ignore the shit out of the people telling them what's wrong.
Played:FFXI, WoW, LOTR,EQ. Playing:FFXIV.
Looking Forward To:DCU, SWTOR.
Keep up the good work testers, that is alot of bug fixes.
I have played for... a number of hours. Most of these fixes are in the game and it honestly feels like a brand new game. They've changed most of the sets around some for the better, some for the worst. They've removed a number of bugs and added some glaring ones.
The energy regen is NUTS now. Killing a nature healer is nigh impossible if they are spec'ed for heals. It literally took 2 people to take down a healer that was just rolling around healing himself, and turning on his pterodactyl form to gain energy, he literally just ran the entire time and got away any time we dedicated resources to take him out.
Apart from that I had some very interesting PvP matches, many 1v1. There is a terrible block breaker glitch where the animation goes double speed, and it actually fires double block breakers too. I was killed by 2 players using this exploit with 2 different powers, 1 was dual pistols, the other was hand blasters. I was able to duplicate this on my end, but did not test it on other players. (If I win, I want it to be a fair fight).
Power trees have been changed, and Feats are now gained out of 100 points instead of 25, which, frankly hurts a number of my builds but will make the game more balanced overall. I'm disappointed in that, my character that had 46 skill points has less than half that now, but it could be worse. They've also brought down the innates like health, instead of 25 health points they are now 15. You'll see changes like that across the board.
One thing I did like a lot is, NO CRASHES!. I played for 4 or so hours, not a single crash. I did get a bug when I entered a mission, I was on the map, I could do combos and attack, but I couldn't see anything, the screen was black. Pressing start would bring up the map and I could see myself on the map.
Another thing that is AMAZING... they've added a number of PVP QUESTS for the OPEN WORLD! Each police station has them, like player bounties and other player missions.
The menus have been much improved, even over what they had done before. They've added color selection in the costume screen, and a number of new costume pieces, some of which I've never seen before.
Lots of great changes in this update. Still a ways to go, but if they can get another update like this, they may make me eat my words that this won't be ready in january.
wow, this is a huge patch, they seem to be addressing most of the problems i had or read on the forums.
downloading now, looking forward to giving it a spin
"All expectation leads to suffering" Buhhda
Hope they fixed a few things for the PS3. Seemed impossible to test with constant freezing and the sound just cutting out and sometimes not returning till relog.
PS3 has a similar patch note, not going to post it but it is pretty much the same and mentions audio and freezing issue resolves
"All expectation leads to suffering" Buhhda
Ya, both of the last two patches I've been in beta for were 8gb. They definitiely are doing their best to get the game ready. Can't wait to get this one downloaded and tried out.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
Yep, shows their dedication towards the game.
