Things that should be changed or fixed already (because you haven't fixed it yet)

1. Allow Chocobo to be out to use Duty Finder

2. Tab targeting should be nearest target in front of you NOT left to right disregarding distance

3. The Map (m) should have a zoom function that allows you to zoom close for more details including specific zones and zoom completely out to the world map. (selecting each zone via top left menu just to get to that zone's map is poor design)

4. Remove the recast time on Mudras to compensate for server side lag. (keep the 20 cd on Ninjutsu aka can still only cast Ninjutsu every 20 seconds...)

5. Remove the mount and unmount delay.

6. Allow crafting to pull materials directly from your retainers.

7. Add in a glamour book because you are too stingy/cheap/greedy to give us more retainers without having us to pay monthly fees for them.

8. Increase item stack to 999.

9. Increase armoury space because it's just not enough right now for players that levels every class.

Agreed. I think they absolutely need to at least give us an interface option that allows this thus making people who like the current behavior happy as well.

The 2nd floor balcony door.

Isn't there a select a "target nearest to you" button? I keybinded that to my button 3 on mouse.

What I would like they to fix though is to be able to select the target even if you do not see its name on screen. What I meant by this is that even if the monster itself is right in front of you, you cannot use "target nearest to you" button because the size of the monster is a tad big and its name is out of my screen so in order for me to use that button, I have to zoom out to have the monster name available to see on my screen. This is what really annoyed me for a while.

Another thing is that NPC who is behind some sort of structure(in this case, some sort of pole). I see them, but I could not select them unless I angled my screen in order to able to select him.

And lastly is I would like to have an option to disable right click to select player. This is annoying when you try to rotate the camera around but instead you select another player.

Seems that my issues are all about targeting, lol.

Yoshi-P said this is something they have to do, but it's easier said than done, people who know anything about programming know why.

Agreed, the current system is horrible.

I think combat actions are coded in a way a cooldown is required. The solution is to reduce it to 0.1 seconds.

There isn't really any unmount delay, it's latency.

I think Yoshi-P said they were considering this. Retainers work on a separate server, though so I can see constant data transfers causing problems.

Character data limitations.

8. Increase item stack to 999.

---

If they coded this in the way I assume they did, they can't do a stack above 255 or 127, increasing the cap to 999 would cause character data problems.

Character data limitations. This is the first one they will address, as Yoshi-P said. They are optimizing the data every patch but the process takes time.

With regard to Mudras, I think what the OP means is that only successful Ninjitsu casts should trigger the 20s cooldown. Right now, because of the lag, it is far too common to enter incorrect Mudra combinations (or you actually do it correctly but the game interprets incorrectly), and these failures still trigger the 20s the cooldown. I happen to agree that the penalty for a failed Mudra input is too severe given FFXIV's known network latency issues.

Honestly, I'm tired of data limitations excuses. Something has to give because SE is really holding back the game from reaching it's full potential. They need to take risks and stop playing it safe.

Another thing that still needs to be fixed, rigging in the Triple Triad tournaments. It's become a game of who can log in first and rig to get the most pts. I'd much rather prefer it to be some kind of random DF thing instead, atleast something to stop people from choosing who to battle.

Housing still needs to be fixed.

It's not really an excuse. There's a limit to how much data you can write per second and until we get a new standard, it's not going to see a big increase. Atm character data gets updated every 15 seconds in case of a server failure. If they were to increase character data, the write delay would need to be increased. You will only want them to take the risk until your character data gets rolled back. The moment it happens, the forum is full of "I LOST MY XXX, PLS FIX SE!" threads. The only thing they can say after that is "Sorry, we can't return the lost character data"
