utsusemi counter

[Zhronne]

I would agree normally about this being not really necessary and a waste of time, but in all honesty I would be leaning to think it would hardly take more than a couple of hours of work (and I think I'm exxagerating).

Dunno, there are countless of more important things they should spend their hours of work on, but I'd love if they could fix this as well eventually, one day.

...and I too thought the current icons were 4+, 4, 3, 2, 1. If so, what's the need for the adjustment? I'd rather see unique icons for some of the buffs that have the standard buff icon.

Just cast it, it does say 4+ I thought I was going blind.

The sad part is how true this statement is, what do we do in FFXI?
Abyssea? who uses utsusemi there?
Voidwatch? in groups worth going with you can full time fanatics.

Thanks for making valid points for me while trying to insult me, it shows how bad you are at FFXI. It also shows you didn't bother to read the thread since you missed my response.

Insult?! My apologies, I was only paying homage; please pardon the confusion. So if paying homage to you means I am bad at FFXI, so be it. You have spoken, let it be know that anyone that listens to or finds advice from wish useful, is bad at FFXI.

Nonetheless, I did read your response... However being able to clearly see the icon myself I feel there is no need to adjust it. I would rather see that time spent making unique icons for the standard buff icon that SE is constantly reusing.

Edit: Also as a random thought. Maybe SE decided upon 4+ in the event that they add :San and are unable to add any new icons.

I'm just glad they added numbers to it in the first place. Way back in the day you actually had to count the lost shadows as they got knocked off in the chat window, total pain in the ass. Seeing "4" for 2 shadows isn't the hardest thing to deal with.
It would be kinda neat if they changed the icon to just a big 5,4,3,2,1....

I'd rather see unique icons for some of the buffs that have the standard buff icon.

This would be nice.

OK, i see some of you think it's a waste of time for SE to correctly implement this, but for those of you who are ok with bullshit, here's all I have to say. SE, pay attention here please,
1. The counter is there for a reason, to have it not correctly read is totally stupid, if it's not correct then fix it or get rid of of it.
2. To anyone thinking the DEV need spend time doing other things, this is what I have to say. SHAME ON YOU. SHAME ON YOU for allowing SE to think that you will accept this half-assed counter.

It's because people are so willing to accept things like a counter that's not correct that half the shit in this game is bat shit screwy. Stand up, and demand that they get these things right, we aren't talking about a debate here, everyone knows the counter is wrong and doesnt properly reflext the amount of shadows up. Further more, it's not so much about the counter, than it is about keeping the game accountable. If they can't fix the counter then what else are they not going to do? That's my problem. You let them get away with this and who knows what else they won't fix. 14 is a sloppy mess and I don't need more of it in 11.

It is completely unacceptable for things like this not to be repaired/fixed. There's no excuse for the counter to not be fixed, I don't care if it takes 1,000men 1,000 hours to fix (we all know it won't), stand up and don't take this. Stop drooling over every crumb SE drops, and demand quality for your money.

The counter is broken, there is no debate, fix it.

Dramatic, over the top nonsense is still nonsense.

I would rather they work on something we actually need, NOT a pointless thing like this. You thinking this is what's wrong with the game is your fault, not mine.

It's NOT broken.

Not as clear as it could be but NOT broken.

4+ it says 4+ it's SIMPLE!!!!! It's working as intended.

Daniel, having them do things the right way is not nonsense, and giving them excuses as to why things are obviusly broken and shouldn't be fixed isnt helping anything, this, or future things that need to be fixed.

[Daniel_Hatcher]

After everythign else they've done, you think this is the waste of time?

A lot of what they've done recently is a waste, That's not the subject of the topic.

It's done the right way, I don't want them wasting even more status icons on one spell when it's FINE the way it is now, I'd much rather, as another poster said, they worked on the buffs that all use the same icon over this non-entity of a so-called problem.
