Netcode fixes for next expansion?

This will never ever happen for as long as XIV is XIV.

There's a decade of content built and balanced around the server ticks. They'd have to redo it all. It would require an entire code rewrite.

In a recent interview, Yoshi said something along the lines of "I don't know if you realize you're asking for an entirely different game" when asked about boring combat. While that's not very relevant in the context of "please bring back team resource management, aggro management, and get rid of the party buff meta", it's extremely relevant when you're asking this question.

That's complete hogwash if I ever heard it. For one, if they fixed the net code they wouldn't have to rebalance absolutely everything around it. What would happen is people would be able to do the current content and the content in the next few patches a lot more easily. They can't adjust for something that hasn't happened yet, let alone they have no data for.

They are already balancing old content for trashy Trust system

Why it is hard now for netcode? I don't get it

Honestly other than ultimates and when they do unreals, they should not care about that, personally. all old content is already a joke because of the ILVL sync and potency upgrades we keep getting

That's not true. The WoW devs had the same problem and they did not rebalance the content at all. And the content still works there. I guess, it has more to do with server costs. If you have long ticks then it saves processing power on the server. And you can use cheaper servers.
