The main reason i purchased this game was to be a Musketeer. Ive always had the impression that the Musketeer and Arcanist classes release couldnt be too far off since the guilds were already in the game. While waiting for the class to be implemented, i took up Archer and i crafted while leveling up other classes for abilities. Soon after i hear jobs are locked to a class, and mine is friggin Bard (its not a bad job, its just not my style) and that makes me lose total interest in archer at this point. Im the type of person that fun = playing how you want to play, and Bard isnt it.
Im an optimistic person, so im still thinking Musketeer is around the corner....................................................... Until i read the new road map..... :(
Musketeer isnt on there, we probably wont get it till 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have to wait 2 years?!!!!!!!!!!!
Should SE add the content that shouldve been first, instead of adding brand new content?
Dont get me wrong i love FFXIV and the 2.0 thats upcoming.. its just i cant play and enjoy a game if im not playing the class/job that interests me.
Im not going to be a Bard, not my style.
SE has been teasing us with the Guns and the Musketeer class since day one, and i had enough....... 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that blows.
At this point im thinking Guild wars 2's free to play, and Engineer class sounds really good to me. :) but it shouldnt be that way, i wanted to play XIV. oh well.
Musketeer and Arcanist TBA 2013!!!!!!??

They did mention "expansion of armory, focused on classes and jobs, PRIOR TO VERSION 2.0". So I think that they'll implement the missing and more additional classes to the game; I won't be too scared about Musketeer being delayed all the way to 2013.

I understand your frustration, but the game must be completed before these types of things are implemented =/.
2.0 is this massive project that is essentially recreating the game in a lot of aspects, and to expect additional classes on top of already additional jobs coming up would be unrealistic. It's unfortunate that it has to be this way but given resources and funding they have it's hard to demand more than they already are doing.
I feel your pain and I wish I could be a musketeer too....but for now I'm just going to watch the 3 musketeers movie coming out and dream of what will one day be =(. -

Adding in the missing classes should have been a higher priority than the job system. It's inane that the game was released in 2010, yet a class so tied into the game's lore (Musketeer) won't be added until 2012.

Quite honestly, I have more than enough shit to worry about on a daily basis. I could care less what this game will be like in 2013 and I think SE is overestimating the amount of people who will care by 2013. By 2013, flying cars (make them already ffs) and virtual reality may be available. Who knows? One thing that won't even cross my mind in 2013 is whether or not this game is good because by that point I won't care. I mean really... fking 2013? I'll probably have moved twice by then, had my first child, and started a new job. They should have taken this game offline and developed 2.0 THEN released it while simultaneously trying to get as much distance as they can from Final Fantasy XIV. Nah, that's not cool. Instead they'll keep it online and charge until 2013 when they re-market and rel-release the game. Who makes these decisions?

I'm expecting a level cap rise in 1.21. The biggest indicator was when they said materials like gold ore will be making a return from that patch. Sure they could squeeze more metals into the current levels but it seems unlikely. You could have said that about current new gear but 1.21 isn't going to overhaul the entire item list like 1.19 did.

People have a right to be upset over it. Musketeer has been teasing us for quite some time, and is constantly seen throughout quests and storyline centered around LL. What's worse is archer, the only physical distance class, has a completely different styled job...bard. Although I'm not an archer, I do feel for those who enjoy it.
