Just wait, it will get better!

[TaalAzura]

I've been seeing this said since Sept 30, 2010.

[Yagrush]

And it has. I don't see your point.

[Arriverderci]

[Pseudopsia]

How many major patches has there been so far?

[Nuinn]

I don't understand people sometimes. If dissatisfied since 2010, why the heck to you still subject yourself to something as unenjoyable to prompt you to make a thread with such a topic. I mean. . . . I'm into a little masochism myself, don't get me wrong but, this sounds like a whooole different kind of a scenario (and we shall not get into that here).

[Tupsi]

Subjective - What got better in one area, another took a few years worth of backpeddling.

How many major patches has there been so far?

If we're to be honestly serious about this? Every patch since 1.19 was framework for 2.0 - Now we're finally getting an actual patch for 2.0...in december at some point.

[Winzhi]

And it has. I don't see your point.

Where has it improved? I would really, REALLY like to know.

[misterrpg]

Nope, worse.

[Conradus]

Nope, worse.

Sorry you feel that way. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

FFXIV "ARR" has zero major patches, so yes it will only get better.

In fact FFXIV "ARR" is a lot better than 1.23 (1.0)

Where has it improved? I would really, REALLY like to know.

1) Better Servers ( increased playability)
2) Has a lot more content than 1.23 (1.0)
3) Redesigned maps
4) Classes lore is awesome
5) Chocobo fighting by yourside!
6) 5 times the dungeons that 1.0 had and more

Soon in 2.1

7) PvP
8) Housing
9) New Dungeon and 2 Hard mode of old dungeons ( with new map layout)
10) Crystal Tower

And other stuff we don't know about yet I'm sure.

Yes it has improved immensely.

Edit: Now that they don't have to focus on building 2 games at once, they can focus all their man power on 2.0. By 2 years, there should be at least 1 expansion, 8 Major Patches. We should have by then:

1) Ishgard ( Jeuno of FFXIV)
2) Ala Mhigo
3) Frontlines
4) Coliseum
5) Full Length of Crystal Tower
6) Full Length of Coil
7) Multiple Tiers of Relic weapon
8) Continuation and ending of FFXIV ARR Main storyline
9) Expansion Storyline
10) Sky or Sea from the Expansion ( we don't know which one yet)
11) Level cap rise ( Probably 70-75)
12) Myth cap will probably be gone by then
13) New content within those 8 patches ( perhaps something simular to Limbus/BCNM/Dynamis etc etc)<--- Guessing on this one

And probably other things we just don't know about yet

When you look ahead 2 years from now even if the subs drop to 300k ( Yoshi-P initial prediction). When 2 years come and go, people will slowly make their way back to a potentially awesome game.
