Huzzah! Maybe I can actually not crash for once!

[titanic95594]

Yup theres a error in there with Dartan to "Dalton" anyways looks like these are minor updates and a few fixed bugs.

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Yea titanic, a few bugs just messin' with you mate. Anyway, maybe this update will take less time than we all thought?

[Midhav]

Aye maybe they're planning for a Sept 24th release!

[Nate Swordwalker]

Definitely not the 24th. My guess is sometime next month.

[Chimera Doll]

^ I agree. It would be way too early to release in two days.

[Tiberius Fireskull]

I doubt the 24th.... maybe the 1st?

[Jamesvsthekraken]

Well we can never know for sure. It could come on September 24th,2010. Remember, most of us thought that Raven's Cove would not be on The Test Game/Server until October.

[stpehen]

Maybe it will come out by the 28th, there's still a few bugs.

[Dog Firestack]

I think they'll stall this update like fishing for a little while, and then put a new update a week later.

[Chimera Doll]

I agree with Dog. I feel they are going to wait abit longer and release it sometime in October.
