[Request] Road Map for FFXIV

[HayaHime]

I hope we can have something like FFXI roadmap for FFXIV.

I think the key to it all is the new battle system. They can't do anything else until it has been finalised, any mobs, content, class changes, equipment everything pretty much is tied to it so until they have it sorted they can't do anything.

Once it is done they will have to then rebalance everything currently in the game ie classes, mobs, leves and so on.

Then once that is done they can start deploying the content and will have a better idea of how long things will take. Then we may see a roadmap of sorts.

Yoshi P. stated he didn't want to make promises he couldn't keep and that's why he is not making many at the minute because they don't know how long the battle system will take. They are obviously making huge changes to it and not just a few tweaks here and there so that is why it is taking so long.

Obviously while they are doing that they will also have people working on other things like content but it won't be released until the battle system is finished.

Yes, Alexia, but we still need a road map detailing exactly what changes are being made to the battle, armoury system, and when to expect those changes. People are becoming frustrated with lack of communication, as apparent by all the new BR-style threads popping up.

Just give me the goddamn 1.17 details. They don't have to go that far to throw us a bone.

[Jinko]

We kind of already have a roadmap in the form of list of things to do.

Expecting them to give dates at this point is a bit naive, especially when Yoshi-p said until he knows his team better and how they work he doesn't want to set a time-frame.

[BelgianRofl]

The roadmap you're speaking of only states that there are plans to create plans for things. That's a lil vague if you ax me.

[Betelgeuzah]

It's hard to go into details when the big picture has yet to shape up.

After 1.17 the roadmap will be updated most likely anyway.

I would just love some solid info on battle changes, how jobs will be implemented, dungeons, and companies. I don't need a full description on all of these at once but give me something to go on. I'm hoping by around april 13th we will get some insight on this blurry image that is FFXIV.

you sir, have read my mind.

[Seif]

Wow I want that for XIV. I don't care if there's an official reason why there isn't one. XI promises and XI delivers more than XIV in it's future plans.

We've been patient for months and months and we've gotten pretty much nothing. Put some dates and content info to look forward to.

My current understanding is that sometime during summer the battle system won't suck and companies (of which we know nothing about) have been released. Is this IT?!

When can we expect to see something of the same quality as XI quests and missions for example? When?!
