Thread: 1.0 server

I wish they would add a server with the original game on it so those of us that liked it better could play it instead of ARR.

As long as you get some forums of your own so you stay over there.

You will still be posting in those forums, i mean you are posting here no? Attention .. much?

That would be awesome. Transfer pl0x!

As much as I would probably enjoy it, there's no way it would happen. The lore in 1.0 just doesn't mesh with the job and quest lore in ARR. SE would have to spend resources dedicating part of the staff to developing the 1.0 lore which would take away from ARR's development. Also, the original game ran on a completely different server structure that simply doesn't exist anymore at SE.

That aside, I would be a little surprised if they saved anything from 1.0 aside from the models.

Hmm...i don't think a big company like SE would just get rid of stuff they worked so hard on, at the very least i would think they would archive it for future reference, I don't know the inner workings of SE or anything just my speculation.

and i agree with you it would take too much resources and capital to reintroduce the 1.0 version.

this, this so much

and dont forget the engine from 1.0 as awesome as it looked. my old pc (which can run THIS without issues, if I would bother) almost shat itself with the first Cut Scene. Every move in ulda'h and I had the feeling my pc gonna hurl any moment. A reason why all I did til i got my newer PC was chatting and no progression

My old pc at the time couldn't handle it, playing the game as a slide show was impossible, i think i only played like a few days of the beta and just hit the uninstall button at the end...it was such a horrible experience, unlike ARR right now which i love so far.

I got my new pc 2 month before the final death throws of 1.0
While it still felt clunky as hell, it was awesome. The CS where Nael fires his Gunblade Lance at you still is very vivid in my memory. The preceding "Ifrit Bleeds" battle was, in my memory, way more crazy than Ifrit Bleeds + HM in ARR.
Never was able to see garuda, but it took the people of my server quite long till the first clear. And I got told, she was way harder than Garuda HM and EX.

Some things are better left dead. But just look at Hildibrandt, dead became him well!
