Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part X! (General Questions)

This is getting out of hand. Normally I am pretty patient however you have not stuck to one single deadline the repeated maintenance sometimes multiple times in a single day for 6 - 7 hours in a day each time. I really thought this 2.1 Patch would be on time due to the Lightning Fate intertwined (Fates) events you were putting out with it.. Also as much hyper as you had been putting out with this patch. Yet again another disappointment. I am so utterly confused by this, I just want a working game with a company that is reliable. People make excuses for the company but to be honest faith in the brand only goes so far. After all their comes a time when you have to live up to your own reputation and hype and if you don't then perhaps you need to ask for help or just shut down the game for good and refund your customers their money. With a Full apology and maybe some free game that they can play that isnt online and doesnt need this level of support.

I dont want this of course.. I would like you to fix your issues but facts are facts and it remains that you are not living up to your obligations. I am expecting you to issue an apology and do something to make this up to your players. As you owe us for sticking by you for the repeated disappointments thus far.

Sincerely,
Joseph Dennee

Will 2.1 also include a much needed quick fix to Free Company Chest Permissions? The permission I am speaking of is the ability to be able to designate ranks in the Free Company to be allowed to donate items/gil to the Free Company, but do not have the permission to withdraw from the respective sections as well. This seems to renders the donations for gil absolutely useless if any one is able to withdraw as much as they wish if they have the permission to donate as well. Part 2 on the same general topic: Will we be getting Donation and Withdraw Logs to see what is being donated/taken and by whom?

Thanks for all of the hard work,

Hundreds of thousands, if not more, disagree completely. You are entitled to your opinions, but if you take a lighter approach, I'm sure you'll win more favors than with words that express hostilities.

Is there any news about fishing equipment to carry the bait/lures?

Will there be any long trips by ship/airship like in FFXI with skeleton pirates attacking? I miss the idle time in the boat/ship

about seeing the LS/FC lists and sending a tell in instance or duty, can you make it so that it let us see the lists and send tell?

Is there gonna be any STR food in the future? or more time of duration for the potions? like instead of seconds like 3min at least?

Is there gonna be any use of jumping in battle to dodge some abilities? Ex. Titan's stumps

Are the minnion gonna be of any use other than just being cute pets? Or at least let me have the minnion out at the same time as the companion

Thank you.

Why do I still have times when the game becomes unresponsive and lags? I play on an NA server and live on the east coast.

Hello, my question for the 5th time asked on the every Live letter question section, which seems to get over looked, over and over every time.

We want open world content back, such as HNM and NMs, basically content like what Final Fantasy XI famously has.

When will we have these enjoyable content back in FFXIV? We have seen the additions of multiple content from other MMO's, but why is it taking so long to reintroduce this mechanic? This is a Square Enix game, and we the community believes that we should only take the best from each MMO, STARTING with Square Enix's first and foremost FFXI.

Thank You for all of your hard work on FFXIV:ARR.

(We already have plenty of content for the casuals, now please introduce this for the hardcore (HNM) and NM (Casual))

Will elemental materia EVER be useful!? Can you increase the amount they give to make them useful!? Or will they remain trash?

Hi.
My question about 2.1 is will Crafters have the ability to craft the new tiers of lvl 80 armor in this upcoming update?
