Thread: Maps redesing for 2.0... cities too?!

what a shame. I think i remember them saying grid would see the most changes before.

Maybe there is a chance they will redesign cities in the future just not for 2.0's launch.... we can only hope.

i doubt they will make such drastic changes after 2.0. But at least after they fix the game we can look forward to expansion packs with new areas.

At what point does hope become false hope?

So we get a 2nd helping of Dalamud?

Actually, it would be kind of interesting if there was large scale construction projects in each city from time to time. Certain places would be off limits and DoH/DoL could earn rewards by supplying materials to the project.

Construction ends when the next patch hits, and the new section of the city, or building is open for business.

funny you said that, i made a thread before to put visible construction sites up were new content is being made, i guess they would have to design it in construction mode which would take extra work...

My DoL/DoH supply suggestion would be just like the current GC provisioning. I wouldn't want the devs to waste time on interactive construction sites...

But yeah, restricted construction areas that give a hint about future expansion would be a very nifty addition.

Here is the thing though... "Wont be redesigned from the ground up" doesn't mean the cities wont see some major changes

More NPC life... less pristine environments... new areas... all of this could fit into the "Not a complete redesign" concept
