Launcher error, cant start

[Mareno]

Changing the name of the launcher file in your Final fantasy XIV directory does removes the BLACK SCREEN from the launcher. But as noted earlier in this post, it's undergoing a big maintenance, so instead of the BLACK LAUNCHER SCREEN, you will be met with a big ass MAINTENANCE sign. Might be a disappointment, but at least your one step closer

You are all just regretful bastards....

24hrs downtimes is nothing you get a whole EXPANSION for free..... Dont bitch here about being able just to play 29 days this month

Would like like to pay Patch 2.1 30 dollars ? maybe then you could play 30 days instead of 29

So just close your mouth.

Definitely not an expansion and unless you know something the rest of us don't, we all PAY to play this game...

You have set your expectations very low for the FFXIV team which is understandable. Most games add much more classes and content and levels before they even think to ask for money. Crystal Tower, Pharos Sirius and Good King Moggle is the extent of the new content. A few new quests, hard modes of existing content, random duty finder, unaccessible housing unless you RMT, and Wolves' Den isn't major content.

Maybe instead of yelling at people to close their mouths you need to open your eyes.

Lets for example take the first expansion pack for XI

Dragoon,Ninja,Samurai,Summoner

Labyrinth of Onzozo,La'Loff Amphitheater,Norg,Quicksand Caves,Rabao,Ro'Maeve,Ru'Aun Gardens
Sacrificial Chamber,The Sanctuary of Zi'Tah,Sea Serpent Grotto,The Shrine of Ru'Avitau,Stellar Fulcrum,Temple of Uggalepih

This isn't an expansion pack, don't compare it to RoZ. Before launch, SQEX said that patches would come every 10 weeks. The server and client instability at launch and the following weeks were cited in Yoshi's most recent LFTP as the reason for the delay to 17 December. As was the case with XI and could be the case for XIV, expansions were about every 18 months.

Others will debate the point, as that is the point of these forums, but we won't see new classes, jobs, or significant areas until an expansion that might come this time next year. Meanwhile, incremental patch content every 10 weeks, 5 times a year, would give us new things to do.

Consistent with XIV 1.x patches, we are now getting about as much new content as the major game patches in the 1.15 to 1.22 series. This fits with the expectation of at least part of the player base, even people who are not defensive fans of the company's every move.
