list가 공개된 만큼 몇일내로 1.2패치가 나올꺼 같습니다 +_+

[미디블♡]

http://babel.altavista.com/tr 번역사이트에서 돌려봤더니;; 뭐 좋은말같네요-0-

[이카피]

쉴드 버그는 어찌된 겁니까? 쉴드버어그....

[바쿠둘]

3월달 넘길줄 알았는데 다행스럽게 2월달안에 나오는군여.

[다솜]

쉴드 버그 별로 안중요한듯. 쉴드 수치 약화시켰구 기병돌격가능하게 하였다는군요.

[양성민]

적 창병들이 창을 들고 돌격하지 않는다는 말은..이제 파이크병과가 창을 앞으로 한채 공격한단 말인가? (파이크 밀어붙이기!)

[아름다운남자]

미디블님이 갈켜주신 사이트로 번역해봣는데 당췌 몬말인지 ㅡ.ㅡ;;누가 해석좀 해주세요 ㅠㅠ 영어지식이짧은자의 한탄 ㅠㅠ

[다솜]

네 너무 쉬운 영어라 번역안해도 읽을 수 있어염 ㅍ.ㅍ

[아름다운남자]

다솜님 그말씀의 뜻은 번역을해주시겟다는거??ㅋㅋ

[파비우스]

아니 그래도 실드 버그 때문에 방어력 수치들이 엉망이 되었는데... 너무하는 군요 가장 기본적인 실드 버그에 대한 언급이 없다니

[[땅콩]과자]

"Lusted"라는 분이 CA와 연락한 결과 실드버그가 고쳐진답니다. 저 리스트는 미완성이라더군요.

[이카피]

오오... 땅콩과자님 다행이로군요

[이카피]

프로그래머 하나가 하드코딩 하다가 함수 하나 잘못 만드는 바람에 생긴 쉴드버그 같은데... 그걸 못 고친다, 안 고친다면 말도 안 되죠.

[승승장구]

쩝 당췌 버그 덩어리라 머가 고쳐진거고 무엇이 아직 남았는지도 모르겠네 ㅎㅎ. 암튼 버림받지는 않았다는 안도감이....^^

[Thnatos]

2월이 몇일 안남았거늘.. 신학기가 시작되기전에 어여 나오거라..!!

[동미니]

오오.. 아기다리고기다리던...ㅋㅋ

[[RTW]ROME]

쉴드버그가 공식적으로 언급이 없는이유 1. 쪽팔린다 2.사소한 버그라고 생각 1번이 가능성이 더 높은걸로 판단. ㅆㅆ 1.2패치 2월종료.... 3월로 연기 ㄷㄷ

[로드러너]

예리하심!! ㅇㅁㅇ) 최종버전, 4월종료...... 5월로 연기... ㄷㄷㄷ ㅜㅜ
