I am still debating (with myself...a MasterDebater) when my Crysta runs out should I post the Mother of all "Not Another Goodbye Threads"...but I will most likely just fade away quietly.

In fact, I should just delete this reply but oh well.

This, but please spare us the "mother of all not another goodbye threads"

It's probably best to just close this thread, it's turning into nothing but personal attacks and it's not even relevant anymore.
Wonderful community.

It can go both ways, though, for sure. It's important to have concrete information on specific topics, but for things that are asking for previews of upcoming content, I'd rather we be forthcoming with information like "yep, we're workin' on it!" or "sorry, no plans at this time for [xyz]." That way, everyone is in the loop as much as possible.

Poor Bay...ppl shouldn't bash him just for not having the info. Better just saying that don't have it than tossing inaccurate ones.

I agree Bayohne. However, I disagree that you should give posts like the one you quote any attention whatsoever, even negative attention. Posts like the OP deserve a response. Not whining trolls. Just hit the ignore button. I do. :)

Thank you, Bayohne, for all of your replies, and thank you to the whole community team as well. I really love how open and communicative the XIV team is. Honestly, back in the fall of 2010 I never thought that we would have the kind of access to the game's creators that we do now. It's wonderful!

As for your reply, it answered one of my main questions. I had been wondering whether the new zones would be kept mostly under wraps until the distribution of the 2.0 client, with maybe a sneak peek at E3. Now I know that we're going to see screenshots/receive information periodically in the lead-up to 2.0, which is pretty exciting.

I figure that the dev team will likely release screenshots when they feel that they are polished enough to show. I'm not going to lie, though: I'd love to be a fly on the wall over in the dev studio.

...assuming I wouldn't get squashed or anything. And that I could turn back into a human later on.

I can't comprehend how you came to this conclusion based on the above community team reply. Dear lord I hope they don't think everyone who posts here is like this.
