This is not a flame, OK 
I just want to ask GOA a question and see if they can give something that looks like a straight answer, in a public forum.
I am simply wondering if you have any ideas on how to handle the patches and their translation?
As it is now, the patches are horribly delayed in Europe. This is (obviously) creating a lot of frustration among the players, maybe especially so for those of us who think it is quite alright to play on an english-speaking server. The feeling is, I guess, that we are paying for something, and then we have to wait for months to get what we have paid for. Why should we do that, when we could switch to the US servers or even switch to another game?
I really like this game, and I would like to continue playing on the euro-servers. But if it means waiting for several months for every damn patch, and reading about spells and/or skills on a web site and then suddenly realize that "oh crap, this is the US version they are writing about, OK in maybe three months this will be relevant to me...", then I don't think I will have the patience to play this game for very much longer...
But you can't expect things to change over night. GOA has improved over the last couple of months, I think. But they could still improve alot... CR and an open and active dialog with the player community is extremely important, for this kind of game.
So, what's happening? Will it always be the case that we have to wait three, four months for every patch, or do you have any thoughts on how to address this problem?
I would be most grateful for any kind of response. If I get no response at all, I will probably suspect that the answer to my questions are "yes" and "no", that is "yes, you will have to wait" and "no, we have no idea how to correct this problem"
Thank you
