Thread: Discontinuing sales of 1.0 disks.

colour it red and turn it into a dalamud wind chime.

i was actually looking to purchase another copy of 1.0 before the price hike.. BOO SE! BOO!

Look I knew they released FFI on MSX, but I didn't know they sold FFXIV on a disk!

(Disc not disk!) ... Anyway.


It's basically to prevent confusion for new players, but also they'll be selling the new discs for $39.99 so it's already reduced from a full game price.

It's really nothing malicious, it makes sense to do this, as they are attempting to completely re-brand and re-release the game. If a new player bought a 1.0 disc all the data they installed from that disc would be useless, the process of getting them into the game would be cumbersome and confusing.

I wish SE did a program that allowed current subscribers to mail in their 1.0 disc to get a 2.0 disc. My internet isn't the fastest and it will take me days to download 2.0. ; ;

Depending on how things go between now and the time the client is released I could be in a very similar boat but its FFXIV: ARR and this makes it worth it, while sitting on Mumble with my LS while there playing, me raging because my download is only at 20%.
