It was mostly just Camate saying "not right now" with a cutesy reason attached. It's obviously not the primary reason they have no plans to implement wild chocobos into that expansion which is barely more than a month away from launching.

I'm sure if there was overwhelming desire from the majority of players (not just English speaking players, mind you), they would find some way to implement them.

And if we're going to be technical about this... Camate said they're adored by the inhabitants of Vana'diel. Not every Final Fantasy game takes place in the world of Vana'diel.
