Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Gets 8 Hour-Long Maintenance Tonight Introducing Patch 2.3

If you were planning to do some more grinding on that Curtana Atma tonight, you may want to reschedule, as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is getting a large content patch tonight (2.3, also dubbed “Defenders of Eorzea“), introducing a rather enormous amount of new content including personal chambers, PvP frontlines, chocobo training, and plenty quests and dungeons.

Of course there’s a price to pay for all that goodness, and that comes in the form of eight hours of downtime.

Deathdeliverer3599d ago

I can't wait to beat Ramuh and see what he drops. Chocobo raising, New pvp, New raids, New crafting recipes. So much. This is why you pay that small fee. New crystal tower level 100 gear. I'm off the next 2 days so I'm going to get a nap in after work tonight, get up to my alarm and log in.

Crap didn't mean to hit disagree. Honestly that's the best way to do it. Wish I could do that again.

Xbox Profanity Filter Is Ruining the FFXIV Chat

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon41d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia41d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA41d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA41d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6941d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA41d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6941d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
