Fan Festival Developer's Presentation!

[Ichthyos]

I just came back from the first (of 3? 4?) dev panels at the Fan Festival. They gave a decent amount of info about what they plan in the new expansion. I apologize about the quality of my photos; the event tent is dark and I don't have a tripod with me.


the small text says: "Benefits of a Personal Chocobo" / "What Your Chocobo Has in Store for You"



The timeline starts in 1/2006 and each box is one month.

Edit: Text information will be posted below, I just wanted to post photos first.

Job balance?


I forsee massive nerfs.

[Correction]

don't suppose you could give a cliffnotes of what was actually said, or any memorable answers during the q&a session?

powerpoint slides are a tease.

Job balance? I had thought the dev team had no notion of the concept. I'm looking forward to it :D.

Looks like a month-based timeline.

[mdn]

it's getting nerfed anyway, don't worry

[Palin]

Looks like we're eventually gonna get a new form of storage. It'll have a charge to take money out of the economy. However, gonna come in Month 4 if i read that right?

EDIT: Nvm, bert answered my question.

[Dein]

Why can't they add the things they promised with the actuall expansion rather than just giving it to us a few months later in updates? I was really looking forward to the new merit point stuff but that won't be coming until 2-4 months after the expansion...

[divisortheory]

Yes, it's going to come in Month 4. Otherwise known as April

[BRP]

This is fucking awesome ;o.

PS: Finally happy that SE is telling us in advance. The guessing game old so long ago.

[Khamsin]

This is fucking awesome ;o.

We have to wait 8 months for the fucking awesome part of that.

[BRP]

You mean like 2 months... If I need to be explained why its only 2 months, just look at the picture for a long time. Maybe you'll get it.
