actually, i would backdate the game version for a fresh server
think about it, it will 5+ months before any serious hunting of snow / wd / nr takes place. This means they can translate everything before that and get it released sooner rather than later and actually start making some money. If the game is a success, they will then release the later patches which they can translate over the inital levelling period.
That is exactly what i was thinking.
Wemade release the latest Korean version of the game surely there leavin themselves with no updates.
Wemade will i think release the patch we were meant to receive before the official servers went down(item patch). KingOfKings posted an email he received from wemade clearly stating that the aSS wont be available until a later date so we cant be receiving the latest patch anyhow if thats the case.
Releasing the latest patch would make no sense. People wont have a clue what any of the new features are for. Whereas if they implement them patch by patch people will know how to use said features.
