Log in #3 points unspendable.

[Karah]

Look, everything buy-able with points this time, sucks.

The only thing I want is beastmen seals for a shot @ a kc.

I'm not going through that menu 500 times for 10 point seals.

You really failed to implement a way to obtain multiple seals at once... and made the points from this campaign ridiculously impossible to use.

I thought it was pretty simple to get seals, I finished off all my jobs with +1 quite easily. I have to agree you would go crazy taking a 2000 pts and do 10 pts for each seal. But seals are so easy to get these days, esp since we can convert one for the other.

[Karah]

That's all well and good but you fail to see the point.

for 60 seals (600) points, thats talking to the moogle 60 times. 60 times clicking 10 points. 60 times scrolling down to Bseals. 60 times clicking yes.

If the menu was arrangeable so that want i want was on top, it'd be fine.

Entirely too much time wasted for something I could farm faster. (but I have the points, I deserve to be able to use them on what I choose).

I think you're maybe confused. She is talking about Beastmen's Seals, not abyssea seals.

Maybe a little of an over-statement? 5 mins minimum to get a beastmen's seal from farming. I'm certain that the menu isn't THAT bad lol.

[Karah]

Hyperbole. I use it.

Yes, the menu is that bad. It -is- that bad.

[Fynlar]

Yeah, as soon as I saw beastmen/kindreds on the list I was like "I bet they didn't bother to make it so we could buy more than 1 of those at once"

Lo and behold, I was right!

Kinda makes me think they did it on purpose to attempt to discourage the crowd that had been whoring Behemoth pops for the past two campaigns.

[kylani]

I wish there were an easier way to trade for multiples, like forgotten keys or imperial coins, but I do figure it's quicker than killing to get seals (even if not as enjoyable), so I'm going to do it. I do wish they'd added a multiple option, and it does reduce the enjoyment of the campaign.

[Kincard]

I sincerely respect you people for having far more patience than I do. If I was to bother to do the single seal trades after about the first minute I would realize that the moments of my life spent in this mortal coil are slipping away into the aether of nothingness, spent on an unnecessary waste of time within a game that's already by definition itself an unnecessary waste of time.

Or in plain English, I have better things to do.

I'm trying to do 40 a day. May do 20 since today was painful lol. Then whatever I have to spend before the campaign is up, I'll spend on something else.

[Annalise]

I wanted to purchase Kindred's Seals with all of my points on three characters. Today, I went to buy them and saw that I need to buy them one at a time. I decided "screw that" and am just letting the points rot into oblivion instead.

[Krashport]

I hope we do not have to pick Kindred or Beast*men Seals as singles, maybe implement an input of how many we want towards our point count. Like we have when buying Imperial Silver Pieces.

No buddy gets behind/support something good before it happens, all I have to say is LOL!

On a more serious note however I have to agree (Dear god it tastes like vinegar in my mouth too) with Karah on this one, there should have been the option in the other lists for us to be able to purchase seals in bulk. Need just 1? Ok 10 points. Need 10? Go to the 100 point list and buy there. Oh need 50? Go 500. 100? Goodness, but sure go to the 1000 section, and yes I know what you're thinking. 200 seals for 2,000.


IT IS NOT THAT HARD SE...

Sad thing is, there is apparently a fourth campaign (http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/campaign/11th/login04.html) and rather than add the option to multi-buy seals as we request, they choose to do the stupid thing of simply reverting back to Shanks and the like. I so very much look forward to the never ending swarm of people and lines I will have to endure to spend my points once again...

Amusingly enough, clicking the menu was still faster than farming the seals to begin with. Not that I bothered. Maybe a few verdigris stones or something and bam, done.

[Karah]

Well, crisis averted, there is a way to get your 450 seals.

Got mine, it's too bad it can't be shared. I wish everyone who was/is interested is able to get theirs. With only minimal amounts of headache.

[elqplau]

ive got 3 items from the first one and never went to the moogle again there is nothing there u want or can use no byne or m.silver aby seals worthless to me as i rarly go there ive got no gear from aby.bst seals.k seals.hi..j.seals i have so many i cant use them all there was nithing there for me

[Fynlar]

It's too bad you can't buy better spelling and grammar with the login points

[HimuraKenshyn]

It's crazy to add seals without the ability to buy multiples nice TROLL se come on now you can do much better than that tease....

[Okipuit]

Hello,

Sorry for the delay in responding! We had been discussing your request with the development team and they are currently working on making it so you can indicate the number of items you would like to receive when exchanging your points. As they need to coordinate this with other tasks, once they are at the stage where a clear implementation date is in sight we will be sure to follow up with an announcement.

[detlef]

I expect these changes to be implemented by the time Login Campaign #8 comes around.

But seriously, thank you.

[Karah]

LOLOLOL you're still optimistic, I'm laughin.

Log-in 8, maybe 15 more like it.

It's always good to see you acknowledge that something should've been done after the fact. Hindsight is 20/20.

Do you seriously not think of things like this, I mean seriously? You think we'd be totally happy with just 1 or 2 seals?

[Fynlar]

Anyone remember when Abyssea keys stacked to 12 and could only be bought one at a time?

Those were some dark dark days, man

[Calatilla]

Why is it that we always need to ask them to add a feature that allows us to select how many of an item we want? It should be obvious by now, that is how it should be. When you get beast/kindred seals off Shami he asks how many you want, when you buy currency in whitegate you are given an option to choose an amount, how is buying seals off the event moogle any different?

Its like one of the devs reads this forum and facepalms, saying to himself "I knew we were forgetting something"

[Demon6324236]

We had to ask for Keys, we had to ask for Glasses from the Coalition, now we are asking for Seals, we really shouldn't need to point it out and ask every time a stackable buyable item you need in large quantities comes around...

I would like to point out some things about this. I bought all 100 of my imp bronze pieces one at a time because the system did not exist until years after Treasure's release.

You could not even store seals on shami until a couple of years ago. Shemo... did not even exist till... hmm how long as it been now? less then 2 years ago i would guess. (When you've been playing for 9 years straight you dont remember when a certain npc was added) That one instance, because of the 3 to 1 ratio, they had to ask you how many you wanted.

basically we've always had to ask. The dev team doesn't seem to have a whole lot of forsight, but human nature, and nature is general, does not really look ahead so it probably wont change.

[Calatilla]

That was pretty much my point, they've changed other similar systems to a choose your amount type so you'd have thought they`d catch on by now that it's the best way of doing these kinds of things.

I agree with you totally, the dev team seems to lack the ability to think ahead on stuff like this.
