You guys are forgetting its gonna take a year. FF games take up to 5 years to complete. Its all consept art. I bet only hafe of it gonna be put in the game.

Alot of stuff pre-FFXI still hasnt been in the the game.

With all adjustments and such I dont think they will handle it. We get alot of stuff late also.

The zone pages have still shots of in game renderings, so it's not all concept art. Secondly, they have been working on this for the last several months. They aren't just starting on it. The server program is already finished and running in house, with delivery, search and such installed. Honestly, with the server system going and the game program itself already developed, the only thing they really have to work on is content items and QA.

I have had this song in my head all day.

Wow. Talk about a shot out of left field and pretty pleasant surprise. This gives me some hope that when 2.0 comes out the game will be able to get off on a better footing. I think the game right now is still suffering from the poor reviews it got initially. Hopefully 2.0 will require a rereview by the journalism community and will achieve better scores to draw people in.

Seriously can't help but wonder how much faster this all could have been accomplished if they had just shut down after the poor launch and put ALL their effort into 2.0. Seems like a waste of a lot of resources over this past year. It all looks great but 2013 is a long way away and I don't forsee EVERYone sticking around to pay for what they will be offerering up until then. I am as excited as someone can be about these changes given that we won't being seeing them for some time. Ps3 in 2013 sucks ass btw, I don't care what anyone says. To me, thats the biggest dissapointment. Time to go play a years worth of other games while we wait even longer for this game to get its act together. See you all in a year and a half.

I fully support this. English is good, but it'd be really great if we had the option to change the voice acting in japanese.

After the new client is completed, new software for the PC version will be distributed online, and can be acquired free of charge. Character data and progress for players already playing the PC version will also be preserved, allowing those players to continue using their in-game avatars."

The server change is more a behind the scenes type of thing that is needed to run the game. It's not referring to the game servers you play on, I think. Even if it does, I'm pretty sure they'd keep all the people on a certain server now, to the same new one.

They'd have huge backlash if they didn't.

Thanks man!

About the only thing I don't like about this announcement is that v2 will take yet another year. I'd expect it to come sooner, like, one year after release? Oh well. I have no idea what I'm going to do in 2013 but I don't think I want to play the current version, whether it's free or P2P.

Though following the end of Eorzea as we know it sounds kinda interesting. I might come back when the moon starts falling down... or something

I have mixed emotions right now. It's all very exciting but it's so far away. I won't get to play this game on PS3 until 2013, for all we know PS4 could be out by then!
