Pre 2.0 Launch world attack/boss.

I think we should fight all the neckbeard trolls from the "Hidden Artifact is an Insult" thread.

I considered the server limitation thing, and yeah it's not possible. but with 2.0 launch perhaps we can have content like this? I would really like the server to come together for something fun, especially a boss that is way over powered.

I initially thought hamlet defense was going to be like this, but a smaller scale. It wasn't what I imagined at all(single party)
I thought it would be atleast 2-3 parties/alliance content. that was a major let down for me.

They can still do something like this for the end of server except have 3 major bosses. Each grand company will have to fight it in their respected zones. While not everyone would be visible -- they wouldn't really need to be

Dalamud comes near impact to Eorzea and sends out a giant of dalamud (like Giant of Babil - FFIV) where players need to go inside the giant to fight against the Imperials




would be cool.... but impossible with the cost to make this possible ><

Will we get there using a ship summoned from the depths of the ocean?

I like the idea, but we can't even stand around in one city without causing the server to lag, let alone the entire server attacking a boss. Maybe one day...

50 Alliances? 1 shot mob incoming!

I'd like to see a huge, realtime event like the opening of the gates of Ahn'Qiraj, but unfortunately if they don't have the new server code in place by the end of 1.23 it's just not going to happen, due to the 40 character display limit. If they don't have an in-game event, they should definitely make sure to release one hell of a cutscene leading into 2.0.

I think a cutscene is a given...

Looking at the original roadmap though, SE does use the phrase 'Radical changes to the in game world' for the period between 1.23 and 2.0... although this could be another not quite accurate use of words as we've seen before, i think we're going to see something significant going on. Not just some instanced battle etc. The mega boss thing is probably impossible on the current system, but having waves of high level Garlean soldiers and Armors flooding the main zones seems realistic. Maybe they'll throw in some extra chipset pieces around as well, like small open world camps etc from both sides.
