DEV 1082 chocobos

So I just read up on our new Chocobs. I don't really like that fact that we can be attacked while riding our Chocobos.
That's kinda lame. FFxi you would never get attacked by mobs while on a Chocobo so why change this.

You wont let us fight back from our Chocobos and if the bird gets hit too much it will throw us off to be killed by the mob attacking it. please think about this choice.

Thankfully, they are not using FFXI as reference to implement Chocobos. In some FF's, chocobos run away or forcefully throw you off if you keep ramming them against enemies.

There are plans to enable fighting while mounted. So the mount taking damage is simply another layer of difficulty added to that content when/if implemented.

It's pretty unrealistic to have aggro enemies ignore chocobos. Why the hell would a Biast just sit there while I ride past?

I always thought that was the worst part of chocobos in FF11....

hmm I say Boo Hoo to OP nonsense

Another reminder that you can't make everyone happy.

Don't add half a layer and leave us screwed because you don't want to fully implement it then. Wait until the "Whole" thing is done.. You don't say "hey Let me make a game where mobs can attack people but they can't attack back, we can add that part later" That's a horrible idea on so many fundamental levels it's just lol..

Who are these people coming up with these ideas?
maybe you should get jobs making people miserable.. Idk
work as a probation/parole officer maybe?

If they can attack me, I can attack them, nothing else makes sense.
Especially if I can't defend myself.
Realistically, I could simply cast sleep or toss a sleep pot from the back of my bird and keep going.

PENALTIES DO NOT = CONTENT...

At least you aren't over-reacting or anything Solace...

so you can ride your chocobo at lvl20 and visit mhor dona without being annoyed? sorry but no.

If it's made so we can attack from chocoback and defend ourselves that's a different matter. I'm more upset mobs can just kick us in the ass and there is nothing we can do about it.
