Waypoints

Heck, it would be more convenient if we were to just log on, all the gears that we wanted (AF3+2 items), all the relics, all the empy, etc etc just shows up in the dbox. Sure, all for the convenient because I'm too lazy to go do them myself. Why bother to even leave the MH.

Asking for less travel time and warps of all sorts to be implemented into a single source = wanting all gear to be accessible any time from my MH, totally see the logical connection...

It's simple:

1. Warping and transportation - it's already exist. it's not like there's no pretty easy method in accomplishing what is asked for. These alternatives only takes 'time and effort' in doing.

2. Gears - at least the ones I've listed, all already have existing and pretty straight forward path in obtaining. It only takes 'time and effort'.

See in both cases, we're all just talking about 'time and effort' and making things more convience for ppl. So if we do one, why can't we do the other?

One can agrue the 'value' of one over the other, sure, but again, it's the same logical progression of why make things convience for one thing but then not the other. i.e. Make easy mode easier.

I remember back in the day, if you needed to get somewhere you only had seven methods of transportation:
Airship
Death and HPing
Chocobo
Warping (mage or scroll)
Teleporting
Out Post teleport
Walking

I remember the amount of time it took to get to old school EXP party zones. Level 70+ Bibiki Bay EXP?
Fastest Way: Teleport Yourself (either you were a mage who could or you had to pay someone) >> pay to rent a chocobo (this is before chocobo raising)
Second Fastest: Outpost Teleport >> walk
Third Fastest: Chocobo from Windurst
etc.

Seems ridiculous now, right? This was an everyday thing before Chocobo Raising and eventually ToAU.

You want to get from your starter city from Jeuno? Airship, Teleport, Chocobo, Walk, or Outpost Warp from Jugner/Marshlands/Mountains. Those didn't take 3 minutes or less to do the journey, most of these methods of transportation took double digit minutes or more. I'll gladly take 3 minutes over 15 minutes to get to my MH.

From someone who did it the old school way for years, doing Jeuno >> Book >> Home City is NOTHING. Heck spending the 1,000 cruror for an abyssea warp to right outside of any starting city is cheaper than paying someone to teleport you to a crag and renting a chocobo!

We have so many methods of transporting now to get to and from place to place, it just seems silly to request development time to add way-points to starting cities. I doubt it is going to happen. Look at were these points are at. They are in all out-of-the way areas (sans a few), in Outlands, in caves people rarely venture into, etc. They are all way out there.

I'm sorry that some of you view that the current methods of travel are inconvenient for you. For me, using multiple methods to get somewhere fast is fine with me, even if I actually have to zone in to the starting city on foot. This is coming from someone who used to think that using an airship to a starting city was FAST.
