Coming In Version 3.0?

[Tonkra]

I doubt a 3.0 will ever exist.
They'll probably just cancel the game if 2.0 fails to bring in customers.

well i doubt they will cancel it if it fails... FFXIV nowdays is still "successfull" enough to make money with it.
you dont have million of subscribers but they have enough to make profit.

there are mmorpgs out of there which have much more less people playing but they still exist after over ten years.

is confirmed on 2.0 wont be cap raise on any class or any new class add.

this ben says........

we have to wait to see new Erosea first then judge as what they sell us "the more Epic FF ever"

soo lets sit chill out and let Yoshida-p Drive us to the new Epic Era of MMOs

Note: i belive he can do Great things..... just le the men relax people....

we still have map revamp and many more things to addres



"Think POSITIVE"

2.0 is essentially a new frame-work thats all, with that in place they can actually go ahead with new content & expansions, 2.0 is just a patch number so 3.0 I doubt will exist.

Coming in 2.0 ≠ Coming in 2.0 immediately after release.

I foresee a lot of QQing when it actually happens, but SE has stated on multiple occasions that some features for 2.0 will be implemented AFTER 2.0 gets released. The problem is, however, that a lot of people seem to assume otherwise.

Remaking a game from scratch, engine/servers included, in a year and a half is no easy task. Not all features are going to be there at release.

Yep. I've been thinking this as well. The dev team has even told us that a lot of things will be coming AFTER 2.0. But I get the feeling that a lot of people convert that into "on the day that 2.0 hits" in their head. So yeah, I think you're right. There are going to be a lot of complaint threads with topics like "Hey SE! Where the hell is frontlines PVP?!" just after 2.0 hits. I'm not looking forward to that, but I think it's inevitable.

...on a completely unrelated topic, what what exactly is that in your signature?

what is the point of this thread? lol

This forum became a place for bored people to whine and practice their laziness and lack of what to do. Pointless threads , trolling everything. At least for the lack of dev answers, they are aware of 90% new treads being garbage.

I don't know about that profit part. I mean, I'm sure SE has to have some realistic level of expectation for this project. Even if it doesn't pull in a massive amount of players they've already invested a ridiculous amount of money for servers, engine, resources, complete restructuring, planning, new servers, new engine, etc. I guess it just depends on if they're willing to cut their original losses or not.

Absolute worst case scenario I can see is that the game will end up going F2P with a cash shop, but I really doubt it'd come to that. They certainly won't cancel the game though. Not after all the time and money they've put into it.

"Hai gais! I'm being an idiot in public!"

I was gonna say something but this sums up the OP nicely.

[AegisXI]

what is this, I don't even... o.O

[Starlord]

Can we just focus on one thing at a blasted time.. we have enough debates for 2.0 with barely any info :P.

[kazaran]

2.0 is just a revamp of the engine and base game.

From threre it will be evolving and changing for the years to come.
