When beta comes 1.0 FFXI servers are going down?

Well, since 2.0 is "basically a new FFXIV", that transition isnt something that easy to do and it DOES take time. And just like Yoshi said "we can’t have people keep playing because they will keep updating their data" or you'd have people b***hing that they lost X item or something like that.

And yeah, during beta it will be a "whole new world", which IMO its kinda nice, so someone who has all jobs lv50 can have the same experience as someone who just started (lore, cg wise and stuff like that) at least for those who care bout that, xD

Well if its something they have to do there is nothing that can be done about it. I just hope it doesn't take too long.

Funny thing about that is they actually both go down for updates on the same day at times, so it likely could go down as 2.0 Beta commences lol.

Well that sucks... that was my backup plan lol
