    Final Fantasy XIV Versio 2.0 Roadmap update

    I was looking at the PDFs detailing Version 2.0's development and planned features for the upcoming patches (as of October 2011), and it seems like some things were released ahead of time, others are late, and we really don't know how much Version 2.0's development is sticking to schedule.

    With version 1.21 released in mid-March rather than early February, but integrating stuff that wasn't even supposed to be there until version 2.0 (cutscene replay, for example), I think an update to the roadmap would be very welcome.

    We're all eager to know how things are going. I'm not even asking for screens or any other details, but it would probably keep a lot of people interested if we had a clearer idea of how things are advancing regarding the steps you've already made public through the previous roadmap.

    Please let us know how things are going.

    I've been waiting forever for the PS3 version to come out so that I can play together with my wife. At this stage, we're actually seriously considering the purchase of a second FFXIV-capable PC since an early 2013 PS3 release is looking somewhat unlikely.

    An update would be nice screenshots of new genders and concept etc. I guess they're just booked right now on upcoming patches.

    I think they will be fine I can't see them missing 2.0 or by much this "re-launch" is just too important for them to have things go wrong. I hope they do another live letter soon I really enjoy those and would like to find out more info like everyone else ^_^.

    The thing i'm looking forward to the most is an actual good game world. bring on the teasers!

    What I would like the to do, is to create teaser bits of the 2.0 world and place them in-game. You can only access these areas from an Aetherial void that has been created for *insert Eorzea scientific reason here*. And after being warped into the void, you can experience bits and pieces of new Eorzea. And as you travel your anima is slowly spent for being inside the void. <_<

    Yeah but that's THEM testing, not us. : )

    I'd also love to see a roadmap... Obviously some of the delays pushed things back a bit but now that the frenzy over 1.21 is slowing down I would (hopefully) assume Yoshida and Co. have a bit more time to keep us up to date.

    My guess is they will probably re-assess after the third Players' Poll is finished as this could likely affect development of some features...

    i believe that the delay to 1.21 should not be too significant...
    the reason being that work on 2.0 is largely separate to work on 1.0 due to ... lots of reasons.
    The job system of course as an example, or a new dungeon like Vale will be ported over...
    But according to this, THE LAST 1.0 patch was to go live circa aug 1st and closed beta in november, with main release in januaryish, so really... if 1.23 becomes September 1st, they can just shuffle their schedule as far as porting some things.

    I doubt that any kind of delay would be remotely significant. Closed beta can also be shortened by a couple weeks, or if not, i mean, a couple of weeks... nah, not too worried about it.
