Entropy Report post Posted March 20, 2010 Darn, I thought we were already in feature freeze. Anyhow, good news. Yes, but you were saying you still had some stuff to add regarding the quest log. So I wanted to make it clear that from this point on, no more new features at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I wanted to make it clear that from this point on, no more new features at all. Yes there is still more to do on the quest log but what's already in the client is in good enough shape for this release. My misunderstanding about the freeze timing otherwise I would have done some more. It's not a problem though. I'm glad the release is coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
