So to those of you that complain that auto-sort, nomad moogles in Selbina-Mhaura, and NPC level caps going to 70 is not enough enough. Please STFU and wait until the update is released before you complain about what SE DIDN'T do.

I'm not upset that it's not enough. I'm perfectly willing to wait until June to find out all the neat *new* stuff that's going to be in this update, and I'll eagerly pore over the .dat mining threads as they crop up.

But nomad moogles in Selbina has been a pet peeve of mine for 4 years, and it's actually irritating to me that SE chooses to do it now, once it's almost irrelevant anyway. These are literally a handful of things that SE should have done a long time ago in my opinion.
 
Man with all these updates this Final Fantasy game is going to be great once the beta testing is over...




...wait, what do you mean this isnt the beta test for the final product?


Anyway, yeah better late then never is great for the new people. All what, 30 of them? But does anyone else realize that we are almost halfway through the year and not even a quarter through the actual story of this release. Not to mention the job updates that were supposed to be implemented for the rest of the jobs, then theres Af2 for the old, new jobs and not even a mention of af2 for the new new jobs(not that I really expect it since this is SE we're talking about).

Lately I've noticed there's 2 different types of replies when someone posts Update info on QCDN, those people who say yay, and other who complain because it's not enough. But over the years I've noticed SE rarely gives you info on BIG shit in advance for their updates in these small posts. They tell you about the small piddleshit that they are releasing in the next update. With a small amount of info on a few decent things. But the huge parts of the update they usually don't release to us until the day of the update in the "Update Details".

So to those of you that complain that auto-sort, nomad moogles in Selbina-Mhaura, and NPC level caps going to 70 is not enough enough. Please STFU and wait until the update is released before you complain about what SE DIDN'T do.

To those of you that keep bitching about job updates, theres been job updates in almost every major update since FFXI has been released, some of them have not been as big as others, but they have been there. Has SE ever told us about them in the pre-posts in the weeks counting down to the updates? Very rarely.


Sorry, it's been a long day and I'm just tired of see'ing people bitch and complain before they know for sure whether or not it's coming.

People wouldn't be upset if they didn't waste 30 dollars on a new exapansion that has little new content. It's a bunch of reskinned zones and mobs with constant besieges and solo assaults. When SE finally does get to updates, they add relatively little for longer periods in between and "fix" problems that have been around since day 1 that most players have been accustomed to enough to not care or the fixes are blatantly useless since 99% of the player base no longer will make use of them. Note, I use the word "fix" loosely because fixing would mean actually correcting the problem and not saying you did while it still obviously remains. Fix cure locking my ass...

That's what I thought.

{SE Devs} shit! they're leaving our game! what do we do?
{Sage Sundi} Assholes, do I have to think of everything?! Give them what they've been asking for for years, and they'll come groveling back.
{SE Devs} You're a genius, Sundi!
{Sage Sundi} No shit.

Give everyone anniversary rings? :)

I bet if thats all SE did several times a year is hand out turbo exp rings nobody would complain at all about nothing much new.

I agree with this. I thought the exact same when I stepped in wotg the first time.
I do like the fact that you can get a little bit of exp in a short amount of time without lfp.

don't get me started on that bullshit. i kept my red zero-charge anniversary ring (I used the last charge on my push to get to level 75 dark knight) the day until i got my new one.
 
I kept mine, too, in case you had to. >_>
 
They told you you could only get one.
They lied to us :|
 
Yeah, they even copy-pasted that NPC this year to tell us we can only get just one. >_>
 
If they added a Npc that freely gave those out I'd hunt down and murder SE. It's already too easy to lvl to 75. They don't need to make it any easier.

full agreement.

Well, if those older players cite "I couldn't change my job in Selbina" as a reason for leaving FFXI, I say good riddance to bad rubbish. While a good and welcome change, yes, I wouldn't say it's earth-shattering since I can't really remember the last time I actually saw a full-on party in Valkurm Dunes or in Buburimu Peninsula.

That isn't what alienates people from the game. Well, it is, but there are other reasons - too many to even keep track of. I believe it's been said already though.

I can't say I'm 100% for the nomad moogles. Only for the sole reason if you have a jackass in your party and kick him be can easily get his lvl 50 dragoon and take your mobs. Son of a Bitch!!

Speaking of cure locking...

Did anyone notice ANY difference whatsoever? I still get frozen like an idiot just as always used to.
 
I get frozen for a second instead of the whole animation. Though, EVERYTHING FUCKING ELSE still freezes you. Get nuked when you try to engage? Frozen!
