In regards to the lack of communication on the NA side over the update issues

I especially like the part where the GM tells Proth to visit community sites for information on Blue Mage.

Not everyone knows how nutty he is about Blue Mage.

[Staren]

given that you are writing multiple paragraphs about how scandalous, just scandalous and unprofessional some errant crashing is and yet here you are, still paying your subscription fee, i think it's pretty safe to say SE has all the information they need as to what you will and will not tolerate as a consumer

All hail the troll king. Master of hyperbole. Revel in his original use of sarcasm and lack of reading comprehension. His inability to infer.

It's too late to cancel for this month and notice how I requested subscription fees be refunded for the downtime. I've already paid for it and I haven't received my money back. I can still cancel before the next subscription fee is taken out. I am glad though to see some response from the community team and effort to get this passed on. It's not scandalous or anything hyperbolic its just not best business practices and it provides a poor customer relation when things like this come up. As a customer its my right to give feedback.

I remember people crashing back when they introduced the "A Crystalline Prophecy" expansion. The people that didnt have the expansion were crashing when they checked the people that had the body armor duetp the dats not being added correctly (i think). Im assuming this whole crash problem has something to do with the mobs dropping wrong items, an whatnot. Possibly when you do any action involving an item, if its having a conflict of items, i could see why it would crash.

Maybe not, i dunno. Just something to suggest.

I had 3 crashes right after the update. I was using blu mage. They all happened when I was doing a self-skillchain, so I was hitting macros in quick succession and swapping alot of gear. It happened once in abyssea Misareaux vs colibri, and twice in dynamis - xarcabard vs some demons. It was always while I was doing a self skillchain.

I have not observed it since that time, but I haven't been playing blu either. and there has been maintenance since then.

Just to note, I've had it crash several times during combat when I was auto attacking, also it some times crashed when I was swapping gear via macros.

Game just crashed on me as I exited my Mog House.

Edit: and again, about an hour later. also leaving mog house in port jeuno.

Perhaps it is just me, but I seemed to notice fanatic's drink not working in Abyssea or Walk of Echoes. Did not override with fool's drink, was hit by regular physical attacks, and took damage. This happening for anyone else?

All hail the troll king.

About time, really!

If I'm not mistaken, its always seemed like this for me. : /

I think the points are.

1. Bad development procedure.
2. Bad delayed communication.
3. Bad internal company policies.
4. Lack of customer confidence.
5. Lack of quality customer support.

Fix these and you have a winning combination. Please CLICK ME, CLICK ME and, CLICK ME TO!

Oh dear, this could explain everything LINK however, this looks nice CRITIAL LINK

The rest of the chatter is meaningless, if the goal is to convey whats in the list above.

Kudos towards Staren for stepping up as a qualified field professional.
