Chocobo sprint ability? or... Chocobo Racing?

It is entirely possible that this is a race between the two people on chocoback and the effect happening in front of the rider on the left is a checkpoint.

Maybe it sits there stationary and players must run through it?

(Think old school arcade racing games)

But what can explain the running cactuar?

Maybe he is racing too?

Just a thought. It might not be the sprint ability.

Edit:
Found the video that shows the current sprint animation:

It looks nothing like the above image.

If indeed this is the chocobo sprint ability, why use a new animation?

Food for thought.

We were talking about it in chat earlier doc looks more like a sprint ability. (who says choco sprint has to look like character sprint or if the sprint ability even looks the same from alpha to beta.)

I wonder if you could breed your chocobo with other people's chocobo!

I really hope for a lot of options with chocobo's.
Like already said, be able to create chocobo's with different stats.
How you breed them, how you feed them and how you train them.

Creating a chocobo that is great at sprinting, or one that is good with magic, etc.

I really hope that picture shows chocobo racing.

If we could have chocobo raising, breeding and racing with the added depth of stats and 'speed ups' etc I would play 2.0 solely for this purpose.

Chocobo racing from FFVII though NOT from XI or XIII-2, I want to race my black Chocobo in realtime :D

Cue the Crazy Chocobo Theme.

It was a joke :p since people complaining about WHM having Aero and all that.
But anyways, i don't think you'll be able to breed other peoples chocos.

Fixed! ;)

I think cactuar is the 'pet' (like mini-behemoth stuff) of the first character that following him. But dunno what could be the circular graphic effect.. maybe a sort of buff.

Chocobo racing= Open challenge racing. (wishful thinking)

If you could use a sprint ability, it should be put in like in FFVII.
