Did you even read what I was responding too ?
After a year of waiting Patience can indeed grow short :P
DO you even know what they are doing with the game, they are completly rebuilding it, the game origanally took 5 years to make, so they are rebuilding a game that took 5 years to make, so if you look at the big picture 2 years is not that bad, you seem to know nothing about game development, and they take time, its not easy to make a MMO especially if you have to rebuild a game as broken as this is, which is why they chose the route they have, they know that they cannot salvage the current game so they are using it as a way to test all the changes in content and class balancing so v2 works, (unless our resident software version expert is going to rage about me saying v2)
They might be working on a big invention with V2.0 but... like you said. They've been working for 5 years and the release was more or less a big fail, well at least to me.DO you even know what they are doing with the game, they are completly rebuilding it, the game origanally took 5 years to make, so they are rebuilding a game that took 5 years to make, so if you look at the big picture 2 years is not that bad, you seem to know nothing about game development, and they take time, its not easy to make a MMO especially if you have to rebuild a game as broken as this is, which is why they chose the route they have, they know that they cannot salvage the current game so they are using it as a way to test all the changes in content and class balancing so v2 works, (unless our resident software version expert is going to rage about me saying v2)
And now they basically need another 5 years to actually achieve what they've originally planned for it. I'm really dissapointed.
It feels like they've been developing "this and that" for a while and suddenly... "oh shit we need a completly new idea to compete with other MMO's, so we better rewrite everything we've done in the past years".
It probably isn't like that... but it definatly feels like it.
And if they really add stuff like a "Dungeon Browser" and similiar things to try to catch those casuals out there.... good luck with that. If there are too many copy & pasted parts from other MMO's it won't feel like a "new designed MMO" which they're trying to invent.
There might be nothing wrong with selecting working parts from other MMO's... but imagine someone's been playing WoW for a while now and is used to the easyness of the most ingame tools.
And now someone is trying to appeal them for FFXIV and the player see the same things just slighty reworked... not really enough to draw them away.
Ah well these discussions are plenty in the forums, everything's been said a numerous times already. But a lot of people are just dissapointed. That might be different in a few years, but now it's really sad since the most player like the FF games.
And... who the fucking hell needs a jumping feature X-x
Seriously Why?
