Q: It seems like with FFXIV 2.0, you will be changing the game engine and changing other core aspects of the game. But will movements and such be as laggy as the current client? Will we need to upgrade our PCs?

A: Currently, the game can only display 40 characters on-screen no matter what kind of PC you have. However, with an MMO engine, people expect this to be dependent on hardware—a high spec PC should be able to display a large number of characters. That’s why we’re changing the graphics engine.
--------

So ya it's a lot more complex then just changing the areas, if that was the case then they wouldn't have to go through the period in which they have to move the character data from this version of XIV into 2.0 lol.

"Changing" as far as Content is concerned, I know on a Technical standpoint, that EVERYTHING is changing within that, but the Content itself that the game provides, for the most part is not changing, just carried over.

This may have been answered but will subscribers of the current engine/servers get to beta test 2.0? If so will they actually listen this time when every single beta tester says it sucks/needs more time in the cooker?

I don't know, but this 2.0 will have it all talk just isn't that believable..

Can someone set me straight(without the if you don't like it leave crap) where is 2.0 will have every feature known to man thing coming from?

I agree about the beta testing.. I'm still wondering if they're ever going to actually read the beta tester feedback for FFXIV. There is still a lot of good material in there that 2.0 could benefit from.

Don't sub then, but when you see people with titles and achievements you can never get, don't come to the forums to cry. Those of us who enjoy the game will pay for it and be rewarded with stuff people like you will never have.

I will sub if the discounted price is right, as I like the game(I was also attempted to be insulted for liking the world/story pre2.0 in this very thread). Also I was just pointing out that people almost automatically say its going to be in 2.0, even things Not mentioned in any of the links provided - yes I read them. People here must have 'troll' in their copy/paste when entering the forum. I am a troll though obviously. From looking at this forum most would assume the FF14 community is a bunch of a-holes. I thank the twelve I am on the server I am since I have not had to encounter the crap that goes on in these forums

lol again ppl are ignoring the PLEASE DONT FEED THE TROLLS sighn

Just hush, keep playing or leave playing until 2.0 and complete things that you'll not be able to in 2.0.
You're a completionist, rite? Then stop being a fridgewhore and get to it! It's fun, therefore you can do it!

Damn people!
