"So the 2.0 client is finished to a level where is reality".

[Reinheart]

Can we beta test it?

　I think beta info was mentioned in the roadmap no? something like August or something maybe that was for the PS3 one only, have to go look back at it.

Unfortunately the Roadmap is a bit useless now as they are already 3-4 weeks behind on it. So I am assuming everything will be pushed, v2 may not even be until Jan 2013!

Must have forgotten about it or missed it. But it's absolutely vital that this thing gets tested properly and vetted before it releases. If they screw this up, it's over.

*_* !!!!!
This is ... very good news!
A MONUMENTAL DAY!
It needs its own thread. O_O

THE CLIENT IS FINISHED TO REALITY!
Let the splatting commence!

Just think ... every day from here on out,
we have reached the PORTING STAGE of the roadmap.

...

I "splatted" all over the roadmap at this news.

According to the roadmap the new client software will be around the beginning of October, Free Trial for PC players and PS3 beta starting in November.

Obviously they are likely to behind schedule but no mention of a PC beta test, I guess we will just be beta testing it as the new client rolls out.

They said though that the development of 2.0 is not influenced by the pace at which they give us patches.
Being behind on patches does not for sure mean they are behind on everything concerning 2.0 too.

Didn't the original roadmaps say that porting of content would begin in April? If so, aren't they a tad ahead of schedule?
