Fresh start servers for 2.0

Wait, this thread is about "New servers will be open for players looking for a fresh start..." wth is everyone arguing about a wipe for then? This thread isn't about the other servers and of course ppl shouldn't lose all their gil/items/lvls. This thread is about fresh start servers.

If they do make a fresh start server where everyone that wants to be on the server needs to create a new char and start at base everything I think it would be awesome. I like the idea of trying shape a new world after the devs have made proper adjustments to the game.

I kind of understand where you are coming from, but at the same time deleting everyone's hard earned gil just because new players might be joining is a pretty awful thing to do to loyal players who have stuck with the game since it launched despite all it's flaws. It would be like shutting down FFXI just because FFXIV is coming out and saying if they want to keep playing final fantasy online, they should just buy the new game.

Balancing the economy would be awesome.

But people will probably flame me saying I'm poor, etc.

One of those rare times I must agree with TheVedis. One of the major selling point for staying with the game was the promise that we would be able to retain our full character developement into Ver 2.0. With that in mind I will opt out of a restart. Will be interesting to see how they handle these 2 sets of characters when they institute their Global world concept for Instance Raids.

hopefully they cancel transfer to worlds for the first 2 years or so... only transfer btw the new worlds.

2 years is a bit much, theyd only have to stall it for a good 6 months before it wont matter anymore. By that point the game will be well enough underway that someone transfering in wont matter.

3-6 months is a good time to restrict transfers, 2 years is far too much

I say 2 years because of the economy, and how much gil is currently in the game already... imagine that after 3-6 months gil will still b an issue...
when u open the transfer it means loaded RMT's and loaded players bringing the economy up and probably imposible to be in for most players.

Doesn't matter, in most MMO's of played when I was younger, new servers had a restricted transfer of either 3, 4 or 6 months.

2 years is a stupid amount of time, how would you feel if a RL friend played on a diff server and u couldn't join them? Would you rather play on a different server for 3 months and transfer or restart a new char or wait for 2 years?
