Translated - New info from JP game magazine Connect-On (Famitsu)

Thank you very much Reinheart!

Looks like someone is giving our favorite Malboro a run for his money.

Kinda weary about him saying that implementing dungeons with just the base battle system intact could hurt the game...unless he meant that they didnt want to put in dungeons with the previous battle system.

The problem is that there is no such thing as "base battle system". They are working on that as we speak. And the base battle system won't be complete in 1.18 either. Only parts of it, even if they are substantial parts. It's a risky move.

He already stated in an interview that it would be easier (for them) to prepare and release everything at once. But the community is stuck in the mindset that the developers aren't working on the game if we don't see the progress in the live servers too, so what can ya do.

I'll join the bandwagon by saying Thank you very much for all your translating efforts ReinHeart! =)

[Darkshade]

Thanks man.

[SAMINUS]

Reinheart, you are awesome! Thank you!

[Jynx]

Thanks again for the info.

I'm glad to Yoshi is deflecting people who are clamoring for content before the battle changes are finished, adding this stuff would definatly hurt the game and dev time of future changes if they don't get the base system down first.

I was abit harsh on Reinheart some topics ago, and if this information is
accurate (atleast from your translation) then i bow to you.

Some of the information given here feels like a relief to know, then i think i can safely say i'll
be sticking around abit longer with FFXIV after reading this.

Looking forward to the UI, Dunegons, Residence & new Jobs system.
