| − | This page is to list the state of the game's Network Mode as of specific dates, and record the history of what each update achieved. As the game grows in the number of updates (hence, the amount of content) it may become necessary to split details of each update (or each month's worth of) into separate sub-articles.
| + | Every 2-3 weeks, the servers will undergo a maintenance period during which any scheduled updates will be implemented. Maintenance always begins on Thursday at 11:00pm PT and ends on Friday, generally by 4:00am PT, though shorter and longer maintenance periods have occurred. |

| − | ====Other Changes====
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Players have discovered that the Partner Machinery GH-450 now has issues switching weapons. Allegedly despite the switching animation and noise, the weapon remains the same and as such the PM now no longer heals, among other things.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * As of this update there have been numerous complaints about the PC version of the game experiencing mysterious periods of slowdown, mostly during Parum missions. Some players have noted that this also occurred in the first JP update, though the immediate update after that fixed the issue.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Prior to this patch, it has been reported that Hunters on the Xbox 360 version had incorrect stat calculations, making them level-for-level better off than their PC/PS2 counterparts and disproportionately more effective than Xbox 360 Rangers and Forces. This has been addressed in this patch, causing a large amount of unwarranted complaint from Xbox 360 Hunters.
