Oh you, SE.

[Kojo]

LOL I love it!

[Krashport]

This is why most should be working on one project and not many, would get more work done without errors. hehe

If they were only working on one, SoA wouldn't be out yet.

Your point? lul

[Alhanelem]

Dammit, I was just about to post about that.

Someone is spending too much time playing the latest XIV build to post the update notes correctly :p


Your point? lul His point is that SoA would probably have been the last of their current projects to release if they could only do one thing at a time :p

Sorry bud, but if you "think" SoA has been release you got it all wrong.... we are getting in parts which they are calling "Updates" which ATM for what its worth we bought a half ass lack of a better word nothing... cause half the shit isn't in game yet.

An update is fixing editing changing stuff.
An expansion of some short is adding stuff.

^ You pick out which one is which with this latest Upexpanisondate! :p

For what its worth there is STILL! ???????? on the Adoulin site here take a lookie; http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/adoulin/index.html another thing under Theatres of War has the word' "Update" Ok yeah they have updated the site, but we've payed for the context already why are we getting it in an update.....

Not all of the content planned to be labeled part of it has. This is standard procedure for every MMO in existence. You get it delivered to you in doses. You don't need to act as if i don't understand how it works, because I do.

This is standard procedure for every MMO in existence.The whole point is; Me "you" or anyone else that plays a game, shouldn't have to wait on "a" Company because "they" can not handle "their" work load. It's not our problem that "a" Company has too many games under "their" belts that are under staffed.

Seeing this type'O just says so much, this is not a normal type'O. it means OVER worked on too many projects and can not focus on one. It opens up a shit-ton of errors for said game when programing among other things.


You don't need to act as if i don't understand how it works, because I do. This never crossed my mind was just making a point on the differences between an Update and an Expansion am sorry you took it that way, but you did answer someone else(s) quote. :3


You get it delivered to you in doses. Maybe this needs to change, I've played a few MMO's, that "you" don't have to wait for the content out of an update.

We pay for the game we pick and choose that game to play, we just want our **DA*MS monies worth, THE END! ^^

All the other MMOs I've played launched expansions with a large amount of content available out of the box, not a bare skeleton with one activity that assumes half of the people doing said activity don't want to be compensated for their time. Go ahead and tell me how wrong I am and how I know nothing about this particular useless piece of information, perhaps SE will touch your boner for defending their honor.

Spot on there.

[Hayward]

Wait...Adoulin's been in Eorzea all this time and none of us knew it?!

[RAIST]

just think about it though....if they were able to focus more heavily on FFXI development projects, they may have been able to release more content at SoA's launch...perhaps even the complete expansion instead of the half-baked trickle they've been doing the last what... 6 or 7 years?

There may be a lot more merit in that thought than we realize....

The expansion DID come with plenty of content avialable at release. I'm not sure what game oyu're playing. This new update (which I still can't get yet...) already adds a new battle system before I and probably most of us have even had a chance to play every new battle system from the last update. I'd say the amount of content is plenty in relation to our ability to complete it before the next content is added.

[Caketime]

Inaccessible events that technically exist don't count.

[Alhanelem]

Inaccessible events that technically exist don't count.
Yes, they do count. I'm not exactly sure what is in the game that isn't accessible right now. As far as I can tell every bit of content advertised to be in this and the last version update is completely accessible, at least on Shiva, I can't speak for other server's performance.

You're using the technical term for accessible. As in, if hypothetically a player were to attempt to initiate one of these events, then it would work. But have you seen anyone doing them, or heard any shouts for it? I haven't seen or heard a damn thing about it other than a handful of reports confirming that it's possible to enter, but actually doing so is another story entirely.

[Alpheus]

Quick grab your Rubeus boots and click your heels 3 times!

[Zumi]

The game seems to be moving back to the hard core 18 man content with delves. Which is sad most large scale LS died off during abyssea era. Try to get in one now won't find much luck people usually already full or don't really want new members. Good luck getting shout groups for delves.

[Alhanelem]

But have you seen anyone doing them, or heard any shouts for it? I haven't seen or heard a damn thing about it other than a handful of reports confirming that it's possible to enter, but actually doing so is another story entirely.
As in all the content currently advertised to be in the game? Yes. I have. to try to suport your off-topic argument by using Delve, an event that is billed to be for hardcore players and requires a decent size group and entry items, within the first few hours of the servers coming back up is ridiculous and absurd. Most new content doesn't get played and beat within the first few hours of an update, especially considering most of us were still battling the congestion to try to download it.

That doesn't make the content not in the game and doesn't make it not count. But this entire digression shows that you don't even get what the thread was really about.

[Caketime]

I wasn't using Delve as my argument, I was referring to collecting Skirmish pops, which is an asinine activity if you go for them without spending gil. Doing as many activities as possible daily has gained me two head pieces since launch, maybe I just have bad luck but simply trying it is a huge fight against RNG.

[JouriStarz]

Just because you haven't got every piece of gear from an event that was added a month ago doesn't make it inaccessible it is very accessible it just isn't Abyssea easy. And don't use the "never see shouts for anything" excuse because there is nothing stopping anyone from shouting themselves unless their keyboard is broken or something.

Point is when treasures first came out all we had was besieged and assault, just imagine the brokeness of every event if they decided to release einherjar, salvage, znms level 8 besieged, alexander and odin fights plus every mission bcnm all at once. Just focus on one thing at a time for now the game is all about progressing your character not plowing through all the content the moment it comes out.

[Caketime]

If farming the items needed to do this new content is the hardest thing about said content, I am going to be very sad. Doubly so if I end up spending gil to get it done, only to find out that the "hard part" was frittering away play time in Dynamis financing the entrance items.

[Lollerblades]

That humoured me :), nice one OP!

[Midorikaze]

At least they caught it fairly quick, and corrected it, as far as I know. A funny slip-up, regardless. ^^

[Areayea]

Wait...Adoulin's been in Eorzea all this time and none of us knew it?!

yep... we just need to go a further bet east and we'll end up on Eorzea and I'll see my hot Lalafell cousin O.o

[Vil]

Oh SE <3

(I'll admit it took me awhile to see it..glossed right over the "hyur" part at first xD)

[Awateru]

Likely the dev teams are separate, and they have a smaller team of website monkeys.
