[Rumor] FFvsXIII team moved on FFXIV + Release date in...!

[Elexia]

I don't see what's so bad about a summer release date. That's basically the soonest I'll have enough free time to play anything D:

People only find it "bad" because SE didn't say it, when SE says it they'll be all gumdrops and lolipops about it.

You won't see what you don't wanna see.

No, I don't see facts where there are none.

All we have is a random pole with no credibility writing on twitter that he knows "someone" at square enix that told him some stuff, and the usual haters keen on spreading FUD pumping it like it was fact.

The second cousin of my aunt told me...

I don't believe this rumor is true to be honest. The current generation of consoles is coming to an end, and Versus XIII needs to be out in a timely fashion. They're in Alpha now, what would they need a ton of extra members for?

You won't see what you don't wanna see. The fact of the matter is that people have their heart set on something that was never set in stone.

Saw your edit. That wasn't the fact I was referring to. If you even saw what I posted. I never said that the information was true.

Are- Are you seriously taking what some random person on twitter, who claims to be with SE but has no substantial proof, as a credible source of information? It's certainly possible that it'll be released in July, but we really have no reason to believe it will.

So they added more people to the already 200+ man team i call bs.

1) A lot of this game systems are in place a lot of things they do not need to test, I will say yoshi-p and his team are really good at getting rid of bugs until the last patches when people was bitching cause they wanted to take more time to get rid of them.

2) A lot of stuff that was added in 1.0 was added in 2.0 in parallel, I just don't see this games beta needing to take that long tbh.

"They're in Alpha now"...meaning there's still plenty of development left to be done. Also, announcements are usually staggered, when Yoshida took over it wasn't when it was announced, he took over prior to the announcement.

"They're in Alpha now"...meaning there's still plenty of development left to be done.

When a game is open to the public as alpha, development is already well underway internally towards the beta and beyond.

What if this is all a ploy by SE to gauge consumer reaction towards a delay?

Some of you humans really will believe anything you hear at all... I think I'll believe what I want... or maybe I'll believe what Abriael is saying since I mean his second cousin of his aunt told him so... so that must be true you know... Family wouldn't lie about this...

Of course any idiot could see and tell that this is all false and made up... so what does that say for all those that actually believe it hmmm? Also you people shouldn't get so worked up over something like this... I mean really... If Yoshi or Wada came out and said it then you might have something but really... such a joke most of you have become on these forums.

Someone pass me the cookies... and some milk... nyaaaaaan this is going to be a good show... I can already tell...

Oh and some of you really need to stop trying so hard... really... /looks at Elexia

The cat is amused =^.^=

As most speculate, I doubt any of this is true, and a rumor is a rumor, is a rumor...so whatever. I think whoever is saying/doing this, including OP is just a troll trying to light a fire. Unless there's proof from and actual developer or from a producer directly quoted (or translated) it's just another baseless claim.

HOWEVER if there is a July release, I would hope that people, especially current players, would understand and stfu about having to wait. They are completely redoing the game, from ground up, this has never been done before for an mmo, and the devs/producers/devs/mods/gms are people too and shit just takes time. Also remember that we could've been stuck with 1.0 for the duration of the life of the mmo itself.....they didn't HAVE to redo XIV. If you ever had connection issues, or dx issues, problems running full screen, graphic glitches, problems with ninja looting, bots, content finding issues, or complained that there wasn't enough content or darklight drop rate is too low.....STFU and be patient to get what you want =)
