About ARR release.

[Zezlar]

I'll wait. No need to go through yet another round of unfinished crap to get the game out sooner to satisfy the fanbase.

i saw this post, and the only thing I could think of is this

do note, I don't mind waiting cause I know I want the game to be the best it could be....

Nobody has the slightest idea when Final Fantasy XV is coming out, either.

That hasn't diminished the anticipation for it one bit. Hell, people are still hyped up for VersusXIII, which may as well be vaporware at this point.

People waited more than a DECADE for Duke Nukem Forever, and people are STILL waiting on Half-Life 3.

I think we can wait a few months.

I just looked at my agenda and it says I'm still going to be alive next summer (well, at least, that's the plan). I don't mind at all waiting until then for the perfect FFXIV:ARR. As it was stated earlier, FFXIV:ARR must be perfect this time.
As for people with short attention span that they'll lose interest by this summer, so be it. They'll get it back as fast as they lost it anyway.
In the mean time, I hope to be chosen to try the beta at the very least and help shape the game to perfection.

I don't quite understand why summer seems like it would be more likely then spring. If the beta starts first week of Feb. What are we talking about in terms of a beta timeframe? 3 months tops? I would bet no later then May. I know they want to get player feedback implemented but I have a hard time imagining the fixes will be on so large a scale that it will take them months and months to get them in.

If somehow the game does release in july, although it's a long wait it wont really matter to us much. I suspect most here will spend years in this game so those extra months waiting at the beginning will be a distant memory. For the ones that ignored 1.0 and have gotten a new interest in the game might lose it if the game takes too long though, but I think April, maybe May will be the release.

Since people who's playing the alpha are saying it could be beta I'm not too worried that the beta will be full of bugs and glitches once they roll it out.

You make a very good point.

duke nukem also was a fail after 16 years.
a MMO is gonna have bug regardless theres thing they wont catch. FFXIV v1 failed because it was built on crap foundation.

This is going to be one very....very......VERY long wait

You'll be saying "hmm ya that Yuri guy might've right" when u log in ARR and theres 3 people left from your old LS.
I'm just saying.

I actually know a handful of people, and I'm sure they're not the only ones, who quit well before the servers went down but are looking forward to 2.0 and plan to return when it launches. Their wait is longer than 5 months and yet they are still intently looking forward to 2.0's release and are guaranteed to at least give it a shot.
