Getting a mount

I would like to know why you advertise incorrectly/telling lies that we can get a mount if we buy the collectors edition. This is not true and false and misleading advertising!!!!!

In fact, we cannot get a mount that we can use from level 20 because you make us do the same quest to get a mount that all the people who did NOT buy the collectors edition have to do. So you got my money for nothing!!!!! Your advertisement clearly states TWICE that you can ride a mount from level 20 with collectors edition mount.

I have a copy of your advertisement stored in my computer.

This does not look good for the honour and pride of your company to make games and lie to their customers. I am quite shocked about this actually and angry.

I realize you will not publish my thread and make it disappear, but this cannot stop me of course for putting it in other forums. Also, maybe you should draw your management attention to this matter.

>get lvl20
>do the license quest
>summon your collectors edition mount (you actually get 2, cos they were nice enough to give you another one in a patch)


whats your problem.

Did you get the items from your moogle mail? Did you use the whistles and bell items to gain access to those mounts? There should be more than just mounts with the CE, did you get those items from the mail moogle too?

lol oops thread closed!! :)

Breathe. Calm yourself. You're sounding awfully entitled and rude.

What Sheepy said is correct.

Everyone has to do the lvl20 quest to unlock the ability to use a mount. Collectors edition gives you additional mounts (among other things) that "normal" edition does not have. It does not magically give you the ability to use a mount.

It actually says in the "small text" everywhere on any official SE site that (CE / extra) mounts will be unavailable prior lvl 20 and unlocking the main chocobo mount so ...

I think the OP thought only collector's edition had access to mounts when he/she bought the game.

In others posts of OP it was already about getting access to mount, so that part was covered :)

The pet peeve seems to be that in advertisement they didn't include be lvl 20 AND some quests to do :)

The caveat listed on the CE is:
* Players will be able to ride mounts once they have reached level 20 and have obtained a chocobo.

Since HopeXIV did apparently notice the "once they have reached level 20" part, I'm not quite sure how she would have missed the "and have obtained a chocobo" part that's right there in the same sentence. That indicates right there they have to do the same thing as non-CE players to obtain a chocobo, and obtaining something in an RPG typically means completing a quest, (unless an RNG drop is involved, which luckily it's not in this case).

You get a chocobo the same way as everyone else, just like the CE ad said. Then once you have a chocobo, you can use any mounts you have, including the Couerl and Fat Chocobo that the Collector's Edition provides. It's those two that people without the CE don't get.

I could technically see how it could be confusing since CE owners get the Fat Chocobo. If you're going into the game knowing nothing, it's reasonable to expect them to know nothing about the quest to get your chocobo license. I don't condone the way they brought forth the subject though.
