When beta comes...

[Mijin]

Do you think Square will be as secretive as they were in beta for v1?

Do you think that will only be for the first few beta's and then maybe allow coverage when it comes to open beta? Or simply keep a lid on it until v2 launches?

I would hope they wouldn't lock all of their info for display...I mean, getting interest in the game should be one of the top priorities. And I notice when big-time youtubers cover mmo's in beta, it helps with hype.

I apologize if this has been covered. If it has, I'll more than willingly accept a lock and redirection to the thread that contains this information.

In an interview with Yoshida he mentioned that they would be staying pretty tight lipped because there were some things about 2.0 that he new would create controversy. I presume he meant in a negative way. I think they will probably keep it quite until open beta.

Yoshida: [Zips his lips shut] We will definitely be adding more actions and abilities for the current jobs, especially because of the addition of the new PvP gameplay. That will require all new types of crowd-control,buffing and debuffing actions. We will tell you more about this system around when beta comes out.

I guess they will be releasing info when the beta comes out. Link to the interview I quoted.
