What do you recognize while observing old ARR concept art

[Tonkra]

Yoshi has already stated that things in the concept art such as helmet and hood on/off positions are there for the benefit of the 3D modellers only, and don't actually represent in-game functionality.

when he stated that? well would be too bad. because i mean.. on concept art it is.. in CGI its also possible.. but not ingame? ^ well well.. would have been a cool and nice feature

besides that.. am i the only one who forgot about this information :

- Campaign of battles to defend Ishgard against an horde of dragons, with the participation of all four disciplines


??


does SE still concider this? or is it canceled? never heard from that for a long time ago.

Concept Art remains Concept Art and not "being officially announced".
Yoshida stated it in Live Letter II, too bad I don't remember the exact time.

thats why i was writing:

"The Question is if these options are finally going to make it into ARR"

While that sounds amazing, Yoshida said in Live Letter III [1:18:11]
"We're thinking of adding Ishgard, Ala Mhigo and other areas with our first expansions..."
"In the meantime, I'm certain there will be enough content for players to enjoy."

yes you are right, and as we did not hear anything about it in 2012 i think its quiet clear, that we wont get to see something like it in beta or at release.

well maybe they introduce active time events instead of this. or wait.. maybe we are going to defend ishgard in front of the gates designed as an active time event, who knows lol^^

No, I forgot about it as well.
Mind you, they were probably glad we forgot so that they could make it all the more epic an announcement once unveiled.
