    Closing Date - 2.0

    Okay, so we've received the list of things we have to complete before 2.0 launches, but from what I understand there will be some downtime between 1.23 and 2.0 somewhere. Essentially a "closing date" where the game goes offline and the next time we can log in, its version 2.0.

    My question is when is this exactly? (or at least roughly) The 2.0 roadmap is a bit unclear on this because it shows patch 1.23 as ending in July (well we are at July 27 and the patch just came out...). The next step is for Aug/Sep and involves "radical changes to the in-game world", to me that says this is the point where changes will affect the content we can no longer complete. BUT! Software distribution of 2.0 does not launch until Oct so... Is the game offline from Aug to Sep? Is the schedule behind by 2-3 months? An estimate would be very helpful, as we have limited time to complete tasks! (I'm an achievement whore)

    For those who won't be granted access to the Alpha version of a A Realm Reborn, there will definitely be some downtime, yep.

    That downtime is going to suck, no ffxiv /cry. I hope they release alot of information on the new site to give those of us who aren't lucky enough to get into the beta something to look at while we wait.

    I'd say shoot for finishing these before October, so that gives us about 2 months. I'm personally missing Garuda and SR5 chest on the two dungeons but as long as I can complete them once in the next 2 months I'll be happy.

    I'm almost done the "Sword of Eorzea" achievement, and I need lots of work on the "Shield of Eorzea one".
    Besides that I just need Garuda (Hard) and to speedrun CC, my LS has only focused on AV until now >_<

    I think Alpha will run concurrently with FFXIV, but when Beta servers go live, our servers will be closed down.

    The Lodestone History "Achievements" are pretty intense X_X I don't think I'm going to stress myself trying to do all those lol

    I'll stick to UI-based ones haha, good luck though!

    I hope so, at least if we're not all in. But I wouldn't bet on this.

    Yeah, I don't know, today I feel like making puns.
