2.0 is an overhaul, it's not content additions. They can add content whenever they want, they don't need new client/servers every time they want to add content to this game.

A Tweak to me is a Hotfix. those are tweaks. With 2.0 it's more than a mere Tweak.. if that is a tweak... then 2.0 must be doing something wrong then >.> according to your information.

You're being way too literal lol.

If you read the PDF's you would see they are adding content.. but you said its a "tweak" which 2.0 is far from a tweak... but since your saying it now that 2.0 is a overhaul.. we don't need to argue if we agree.

Althought they may be tweaking certian aspects most of what 2.0 offers is brand new systems and content (servers, maps, pvp, new areas, new systems, AH, Free Companies, Summoning, Playing housing etc.)

*EDIT* Damn, I just noticed your on my server to! I need to go spread false info around Ul'dah

I can just feel the 2.0 information coming. Like a cool summer thunderstorm rolling in, ready to rain down information, screenshots, and movies on us.

...OK, maybe that's a little too hopeful. If not a downpour of 2.0-related stuff, then at least a few sprinkles of information happening more and more often :) I know E3 is coming, but somehow I thought we'd get a screen or something before then. Maybe not, though.

Anyway, I'm not complaining. I think they should release 2.0 information whenever they think it would strategically work to their advantage to do so. However, that doesn't stop me from wanting information like a child wants candy. Yoshi-P, can I have a screenshot? Can I? Can I? Huh? Can I? I want a screenshot! Yoshi-P! ..... ........ Bayohne! Can I have a sreenshot? Can I? Can I? Huh? Can I? Mom....er....Yoshi-P said I could! So can I have one?

Exactly, everything in a whole.. is being considered an overhaul on an overall basis. Majority of it being System related work. However, according to the PDf's it would seem a significant amount of content is being added in 2.0.. and since 1.xx is basically getting dumped.. where's the New content? So I consider that an overhaul as well.. Overall in content related to the events after Meteor and anything else they can muster.

Edit: Don't you dare!

Obviously after new content they'll still have to make adjustments, but 2.0 is more of a glorified patch which already has tweaks done to it since that's basically what an overhaul is.

This is why 2.0 is in such a make or break position, since it'll allow for some stuff 1.x can't do, but it can also still have some of the problems that were a turn off for players to begin with, i.e interface lag. So it's more people still expecting it to be a brand new game rather than just a overhaul to the core system.



They could have always added content being released during 2.0's life span in 1.x if they so chose, would it have been wise to, though?

I have to agree with everything here. When 2.0 hits, I'm simply expecting rebuilt maps, less interface lag and a few more options that couldn't be done in 1.xx.

I'm looking forward to 2.0 very much, but I'm not expecting a brand new game.

For me, with a new UI, this game will be as good as new. >.>' lol

And maps. Those four things are pretty much my only remaining complaints about the game. :)
