That's going to be added in later, already officially stated. I think it was around the 2nd or 3rd of July.

Darn,

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?

THIS THIS THIS THIS.

Make it happen, PLEASE.

Kweh!!!

Exciting.

I could care less about the animation, that's absolutely the least important part of the chocobo...

Now, getting from Ul'Dah front gate to my favorite farming spots in half the time... is GOLDEN.

Probably to hint that even if your chocobo is at X stables you can call it to different zones. Cant say I was excited about the music though. /cheer comming soon.

Pretty underwhelming that their is no actual chocobo mounting animation. Just a whistle and *poof* you're on a chocobo. It would have been cool to see one of your retainers come riding by and dropping it off for ya. Maybe even grab something from your retainer while he's there...

SQUEEEE!

I mean KWEEEEEEH!

Edit - I think my favorite part is how they use the whistle sound from FFVI when calling the bird. Nice throwback!

i want my HORSEBIRD!!!!

pretty sure the devs and QA also suggested the mounting animation; probably for 1.19 they working on fast work around to get the traveling problem solved (to some point) then once other main issues are settled or the animation division completes their main tasks they can work on this one.

JP side also asked for motions while on the chocobo, which I think is also a good idea to add in the future.

And i am sure you will be one of the first people to complain that it takes too long to call your Chocobo...
