Things added to 12/18 patch (but they were too sneaky to say)
 

Well, the patch is up and it looks like they 'forgot' to add in a few details to the list of updates they put in. Thus, this thread is meant to be the full list of updates to the game. I KNOW I missed a good bit, so please post your findings.

10 Faces
10 Hair Styles
10 Hair Colors

5 Santa Hats (Found in Event Items section of Fiesta Store)

OX Quiz Field

Christmas Quest (Talk to Kid Woz)

Party Matchmaking (Found in Community "F")


Now the 'added in but we forgot to tell you, matters:


(unconfirmed) Fix to uncompletable quests (only Gold Hill 3 is confirmed).
New dances (currently replacing the old Dance 2-5: old ones will return later)
New Critical animation
Class icons on teammember icons (hover over it and it'll tell you their class)

New icon for Floatation Stones

New 'prettier' world map


Also:

Christmas themes including:

- Background music (in char screen and in towns)
- Snow graphics
- Christmas tree in the cities
- Christmas quest in Elderine for a 30 day santa hat.

Interesting.

I like it ^^ This is the most unique patch they've done yet.

Yea I'm loving the criticals.

I fear i'm exploding with the new crits.

Oh yea, love the block as well. Just used one today. It's helpful, and it avoids unnecessary spam and guildwars :D

Lightning:

Matchmaking is done simple here: They have a list where you can register, leaving a message with what kind of party you want (i.e. "Need party for Keblings"). Others, (or you) can click on one of those messages, if it interests them, and use the buttons to send a whisper or a party invite. Just like that, you have a party.

Trickster did it better IMO, but it's still nice.

As for the last sentence, this isn't a "Wish list", or a "should be added". This is a list of things that WERE added in with this last patch. Unlike other patches, they not only put in what they said they would but added in things they didn't say (like the quest fixes, or Block).

Blocking and matchmaking are the most useful things they've done yet I think. The new crit animation is nice, but they seem to have taken out the screen shake that used to come with it and I liked the shake.
