Can we have the old HP Warp ordering back?

Seriously, I used to be able to warp just about everywhere I normally go with a few clicks but now it's a nightmare. If it's a place I hardly ever go to, I'll have to 1st remember what region it is in and then find the region in the listing.

Why we switch to this? I know there are a lot of people asking to change it so the HP point themselves can be customized name or named better to be easily remember but what we have now is just a nightmare.

I actually think the new way is great. No more trudging through pages and pages of individual locations.

I like this ordering better, but only marginally.

[Sarcasm]

The thing most people wanted was to name the HP#s something logical though that is apparently too hard, because they'd have to use the auto translator for words like "Auction House", "Exit", "Mog House", and that's far far too much work.

Totally agree, the new system is perfect imho. I was sick of scrolling down over and over again every time I used the old hp-nexus system.

The old order made no sense whatsoever, no I don't want 'em back the way they were.

Greetings,

The reason why the home point warp selection system was changed is because we will be adding more home points that you can warp to in the future, and with the previous UI setup there would be way too many pages to flip through.

We apologize this was changed after you had all gotten used to it, but we decided to make this change giving consideration to what’s to come in the future.

Why not just link Home Points, Proto-/Waypoints, Geomagnetic Founts, and Outpost/Book warps?

I can see the future of FFXI... Home Points, Waypoints, books and NPC warpers everywhere!!!

That's the standard of today's "MMO"RPGs, so they do have to bring it up to code!

Could just change the proto-waypoints and home points to aetherytes >_>

The problem is that most people don't know what regions the different zones are in. Perhaps organize things by expansion instead like Voidwatch warps.

or players could learn to read a map and learn their way around, that works too...

No thanks.

Edit >

Then again having the option to select between different sorting styles would be nice.

Could you at least put all the BCNM and Wildskeeper Reive home points in their own categories?

I agree with this. Battlefields should be their own category.

I just think they need to put all the cities into one group for easy of use. It would cut down on the entries on page one. then have sub pages for all the cities there.

I do not mind that you did change it, I mind how you changed it. As I explained before the update was done, using individual regions is a bad idea, most people will not remember the individual regions associated with the location they wish to go so easily. The best way to do this would be to use a system similar to VW, where it tells us the expansion and possibly the related city or area for the places in that category, but not the individual region names. This would be the best way to sort them without having them to spread, or letting them take up to much room.
