Just a heads up - the music in the video is for rental chocobos. Personal chocobos will have different music.

KWEH.

Mounting animations are a waste of time.

If I had to guess, I'd bet it's related to the Amalj'aa strongold. Probably just smoke from a fire or something.

Thanks for letting us know, I was wondering if the rental and personal chocobo would have the same music. ^^d

Two things:

1) Big folks get horse-birds, and we Lalafell get pony-birds. This pleases me.

2) I think may be the first promotional video that SE has released that doesn't even HAVE a Mi'qote in it. Stunning!

Who is composing the newer tracks for the game? I don't recall hearing Nobuo Uematsu working on new pieces. The new Black Shroud music just screams Kumi Tanioka to me...

Ooh boy. The music fanboy in me is gushing! Is it going to be another iteration of the chocobo theme or an all new thing?

The "new" theme is already on the OST, so unless someone says otherwise I think Uematsu was behind it.

I find it pretty ironic that in a sea of "Why does everything have to have a repetitive cutscene?" we're seeing, "Why don't the chocobos have a cutscene!?"

I'm fine either way, so long as I can get to Bluefog in <5~8 minutes.

So wait...that means the personal chocobo music will be even MORE awesome? I was expecting this to be the personal theme and for them to make a less cool version for the rentals. :O

Nah, Zahar’ak is to the southeast, near Camp Broken Water. That smoke is coming from the northeast, near Camp Bluefog. My guess would be it's from those reactors that are up there. I'm pretty sure I've noticed it before.

EDIT: Ah, beaten to it! Damn you, AdvancedWind! :rolleyes:

Hopefully this wasn't asked already: will we be able to get chocobos of other colors at some point?

XI had different colors and the Grand Companies artwork even has various shades. I know there'll be different kinds of armor for them eventually, but color customization would be an easy way to make them even more unique. :)

All of the music used has been composed by Uematsu. The OST is very long. Surprised you haven't heard it on youtube or something.

Entire soundtrack has been in the dats since alpha.

Huh, that came out of nowhere o.o

Still, looks nice, though the whistling animation's a bit.. abrupt or so.

I wonder if they'll add a /whistle command and all, just as an emote.

To celebrate the coming of chocobos here's some pixel chocobos that I've done ages ago.
There are ten of them in the album.
Take as many as you want. :p

Album: http://celethien.imgur.com/chocobo

I found a cute chocobo image ages ago from the web and decided to turn it into a pixel version.

EDIT: If you don't like any of the colors that are there just quote me and tell what color you'd like.
I'll then make that color chocobo and add it to the album.

I thought I did on youtube but don't remember listening to the grand company ones on youtube + the modified dynamic version of the instance raid music wasn't on the OST (still same original track with added effects) so was guessing chocobo has another one, I only heard one chocobo one which they used for the rental chocobo.

Good point, actually. You're right that the company music wasn't there before. That will be good to get conformation on who composed that. The rental music is by Uematsu, this we know. The new music... maybe they have more variations of the same tracks done by Uematsu that they have on stock. That's really all I can think of. Personally, if new music is added they should include that in patch notes along with the composer. Not only just to feed my curiosity, but to give them some credit when it's released.

This got me excited. I haven't been playing that much lately but once I have my yellow bird that's going to change big time.

I'm using Rapture right now going through the files and there are other various OGG files scattered between other files, which can go unseen if you dont take the time to go through everything. Going to see what I can find!

I would assume it's in game right now these towers have been blowing blue smoke from release...not that alot of people even know they exist. It's called camp Blu-For a reason.

Not a complaint by any means, but I had pictured in my minds eye that they would come running in(fading in) from a distance and there would be an animation of hopping onto them.

Can we get this at some point?

Pwease?

I'd like to see this as well! Add another pwease to the pile :)
