    I think they already done something about it in these 4 months and it seems they are just inside the problem (redesigning) right now. We have only to wait little longer.

    This wasn't just a "we're looking into it".


    "redesigning within single areas"

    ~and~

    “a specific theme for each area”



    I think it can be inferred that mob species/level will correlate with the new maps. This is exactly what we are asking for.


    EDIT:

    I just want to ask people to really think before they start complaining about wanting more information on this. Honestly what more can we ask of them at this point of the re-development of the game? (a dev post in this thread would be nice, but it will say the same thing)

    I guess true but at same time what does SE have in mind for redesigning within single areas, specific theme for each area? If they just release without getting players input... I'm afraid it's going to be FFXIV Alpha/Beta all over again (we're still in beta right?) I want to know how much does SE understand players inputs. Just show us a sketch or their version of map ideas they have in mind just like others made maps on this thread. I'd rather see it than just hear from them... done enough of that in FFXI and get disappointed.

    I sure hope their single-area means sub-zone as well


    Meh... what the hell I already waited this long, only can hope for better since I really want to keep continuing to play this game just like I did XI for 6-7 years... maybe 8... i forget already lol. Sorry for me bit**ing... I have small gaming company friends who LOVES to talk about their ideas + old friends who inspired me to wanting to become a game programmer since I was 8 so for me I wanted game devs to be more... I just have too much expectation from them I guess... sorry.

    I agree that some concept art would be nice later on in development, but as far as player input, the current dev team knows what we like. All they have to do is log in to FFXI and run around for a couple hours to see what they need to do.

    I hope so lol, hope they don't have god mode on where click map -> summon character with super gear, and testing in triple speed mode (good for developing/testing) but forgetting that's actually 3x and not regular speed lolol

    Anyways I don't think it wouldn't hurt to keep posting ideas on here if the devs surely are looking at it, and using good ideas from different players + their own ideas to remake FFXIV the way we all want it.

    Would be surprising if SE adds one small change in 1.18 just adding something to already existing map that adds uniqueness to a sub-area that we talk about and say boom! see it's possible; and we're actually working on it so please wait. Kind of like showing your dog a dog treat and saying sit!... sure I'll sit lol hopefully not for 1 extra year though... dunno how much time SE got.

    Areas are intended like part North, South, East and West of every region i presume. In that case, would be awesome

    Well let's just hope that what they mean by
    "For the changes we are aiming to have “a specific theme for each area”
    "
    that they mean each sub-zone of the zone and not just each big zone.

    We are aiming to have “a specific theme for each area”

    I likes this.

    Shall we do another 100 posts on speculation to what this means? That'll get us to 1000, which means we shall deserve a beer and a smoke whislt feeling rather smug with ourselves.

    I think people misunderstood when SE told maps are being re-done.

    Some of the collisions were tweaked that's it. Unless SE VERY CLEARLY states that some change is coming then it's not and it's not in development either.

    If a small battle tweak like AA has been advertised since I dunno half a year ago(?) then you honestly think they'd hold a carrot like that out of public knowledge? I don't think so.

    Also given the pace at which these small tweaks have been worked on I don't think it's realistic to expect anything else than a few huts here and there in the landscapes.

    Personally I feel very discouraged to continue playing a game that's built around such a bland core as the landscapes are because it would mean I'd have to look at the same hills for years to come.

    Right now I feel like the words overhaul and re-build were just empty hyperbole because there is NOTHING in the list of upcoming features that would qualify the use of those words in the context of XIV.

    high chance you are right, i still hope you are wrong in the end for the sake of this game.
