You've got a long way to go... check out this guys xiv pad, then look at everything he said, then look at this xiv pad, then try to tell me he's not a troll.

@ OP. Please quit and send me all your gil. Gidonidon Sur on Selbina. Thanks.

Or...Don't pay2play and reactivate account 1 month prior to 2.0 and zerg all the content. Bam, $12 (and some lost shut-eye) versus $120+

The OP may be incorrect on a few of the details but they have a valid point. Those polls we took just proved to Square what is deemed most desirable by us and is now going to keep everything we asked behind the key of the $. I will not be continuing onward until their slated 2.0 is released as this is what got SE the deserved intense backlash is has suffered by using our natures against us once again. I paid a lot of money for a beta and I still have to pay for a beta the way I look at it while all the input we divulged as players is being used against me to force me to pay again for these ideas which should have been there in the first place that are still in development. I think those that will pay need to remember the recent past and how we as players were shunted and deceived. Now all the things I had hoped for being a part of during this development is null as they only want the opinions of die hard fans who'll pay the sub for this crap.

Geeeeeze why is everyone so poor?
"Waaa waaa, less than half a buck a day, Waaa waaa!"
Get a job, jesus!
"You have to give me exactly what I want! I don't want to play a game unless i can tell you what to do!"
Why do people think they can tell someone else how to do their job.

Forums really give some people a false sense of authority and grandeur.

Let them get on with their freaking jobs and stop making depressing threads that are written and designed to bring about worthless conversations like this.

Sounds like time to get off the forums then and get leveling :P

most of the content WILL BE GONE

Most of the Content will be here for your information.

- Dungeons
- Strongholds
- Primal Fights
- Hamlet
- PvE Content ( Garland Empire)

All the stuff thats going into this Now, WILL be in 2.0, It will just be redistributed in the New world as such. Even Yoshi-p said Dungeons like Darkhold and Maws WILL be in the new world, ( however it may look different then what your seeing now).

Technically, What your paying for "NOW" is what your still going to get "THEN". Just in a different location.

THE ONLY THING THAT IS CHANGING, IS HOW THE WORLD LOOKS ITSELF!

AND THE ONLY THING YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SEE AGAIN IS THIS "ONE-TIME EVENT" ( Which is the CATACLYSMIC EVENT that Blows up Eorzea!

That is all...

oh no..........

The truth is 2.0 could very well be a flop. No one wants to talk about it but it would benefit square if we did. After all, square is going to have to convince a lot of new players to join if they want to keep this game going.

I think Square is learning that being niche does not work when aiming for a global market. Unfortunately many of the trolls in these forums have yet to catch on to that concept.

@Starlord

Actually they are changing the game engine so that it'll be easier to work with, taken from

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!
