...and if I had seen them before I wouldn't be such a tool. It's amazing what people will do/say knowing they have full anonymity.

I can be extremely blunt- without going into specific details as to why, that's the best way to put it. It's not really meaning to be an ass, though I recognize it sometimes happens without trying. It's just something I have to deal with.

I'm not really sure how pretty much anyone on these forums could have missed the 2.0 images that were
1) posted on this forum multiple times over the last several weeks
2) were posted on every major community and MMO site
3) were posted on the official website
4) are still at most of those locations.

The annotated screenshot wasn't quite as heavily publicized and I can understand that one specifically. However, I was specifically discussing the new ones and how they are different from the original that was released like a year ago.

However, given the posts in this thread, I'd be concerned if I was a marketer at SE, because apparently they're doing something wrong if people are missing this....

As far as the differences, they are many- I don't know how anyone can look at the two side by side and say they look almost the same. The party panel in particular is VERY different and has new features. The action bars can be separated and can be set to run vertically as well as horizontally. Those by themselves are big changes, but crafting itself is clearly undergoing some major changes as see in in the screenshot showing a carpenter, with the "CP" bar and no MP/TP bar.
