I'm not sure how we can
I'm not sure how we can discuss this honestly. We don't really know what the changes are.
EDIT: Unless the real discussion should be taken after these changes are implemented... Because then they will be more than obvious.

To save everyone the time, it just says:
Changes
- Behind the scenes changes
Now go back to your holes & complain.
EDIT: It seems like Thalia's edited her post & added 2 Bugfixes in.

What would you do if you weren't afraid?
You devs sure are trolls, the whole of SK thought it was the gunner update!

Dance the night away grab somebody n drink a little more =0
Ah they are getting ready to fix up the yellow snipes for the GH's, or they are just updating the backgrounds in the clockworks!

You guys sure do love being vague, huh?

Backgrounds in the Clockworks
Backgrounds in the Clockworks seems more "behind the scenes" than 300 yellow snipes in EoS's GH.
EDIT: Blazzberry: OOO has always been vague. They don't hand us information on a silver platter and they never have. They let us figure out a lot of this stuff.

gods ain't gonna help you, son.
not serious: sorry, that's not vague enough. could you be a little less specific?
serious: yo dawg, thanks for the magnificent change, whatever it is.

What we expect: Gunner update+5* crystals.
Reality: 5* crystals are back but OOO removes the 4* ones. You can finally heat your 5* gear but you can't craft 5* items because you can't heat the 4* ones ^.^ OOO's self-destructive logic.

That... Err...
That's not exactly helpful. Maybe they're finally making radiants more common because, you know, that's behind the scenes.
Or maybe decreasing some drop rate in such away that we can't be directly mad at them.
Accusations aside, I'll be looking forwards to seeing what's changed!

In all likelihood, we
In all likelihood, we probably won't know what's changed. Maybe it's making the code different so it's easier to change things or fix stuff. Whatever they do, maybe we will see some result of it, but not know what exactly changed.

#13
What would you do if you weren't afraid?
It obviously says Behind the scene not background changes. We're atm in the scene and they're in and behind the scene, so they're making changes only they can see.
Not hard to understand <3

Better network/server sided
Better network/server sided coding so people who live more than 10 miles from the servers don't have atrocious ping? I hope so, getting tired of playing GvG on EU where my ping is like 1,500 ms on 2 bars.

Just fyi
Don't be made if it isn't the gunner update, just saying. But some people will still rage.

Exactly. Now explain why we are discussing something we can't see.
Why, some people have been doing that for centuries. They call it 'religion'.

Are you saying that Thalia is trying to make us form a religion over this update?
I'm still not sure what about this we are to discuss, just as Thalia's last Update Discussion.

my 2 cents
Behind the scene? Someone got fired I bet...

If you have had a keen interest in the AH recently, looks like they jumped the shark on this one. Again.

hmm
Edit: no

Looks like it was more than just behind the scenes:
- Fixed a security issue with the web launcher
- New arcade gates will no longer have levels that can never be reached
The post was edited. I have a feeling it's related to the hacking that happened last weekend.

Oblivious fools.
It's obviously the new rose regalia outfits. You know what that means?
MORE FORUM PICTURES!

As a note...
Current gates are still bugged, but the new gates should be fixed... according to the notes.
Wed, 01/15/2014 - 18:15

One question. Exactly what levels were unreachable before this? We talking like beyond-the-core unreachable?

@Xtweeterx Sorry to break
@Xtweeterx Sorry to break your hopes, but's it's only good ol' pre-core levels. The Depth-28 arena in the onyx gate is unreachable. It's not the first time an arena is unreachable on Depth-28.
Source : I reported the bug a bunch of days ago.

Is it just me, or there is another patch?
I know I successfully dowloaded this one last night, I even played some missions...

The "behind the scenes" changes are obviously lowering the droprate of Radiant Heat Crystals.
It's so tempting.
But I must state this:
ATALANTA STOP MAKING 5* HARD TO HEAT
Otherwise...
People will use this.

Why in the world would you
Why in the world would you uninstall the game? You're only going to have to re-download it when new content comes out, and the worst part is that the download will take far longer as opposed to just leaving it.
It's like selling all your stuff if you quit while comparing it to keeping your stuff in the off chance you decide to return.
Oh yeah Fehzor's a jelly knight now.
