2.4 Preliminary Patch Notes
Well we knew the Shiva Pony was well on its way, plus the barding from Shiva's drop item... but that chocobo?!

A parade chocobo?!! I want it! I wonder what event/quest/craft/fight this comes from? Any speculations?

Also very curious about the ice barding.

Apparently it's 3000 commendations for the parade chocobo.

I heard the parade chocobo is a new commendation achievement reward. Need 3000 commendations.

They showed this in the same live letter that they discussed the Bonding Ceremonies, could the two be related?

That looks so pretty! :D Looks like something that'd come from the wedding thing though. It doesn't look 'parade-y' or something from the ice queen.

I would like citation of this too. I want to see an outline of the commendation rewards.

I know!!! I'll be kind of sad if it's a separate chocobo, I want it to be a barding so I can have it on my pink chocobo. :D

Yeah I'm pretty sure if I remember correctly from that live letter, that is going to be the "Eternal Bonding" tandem chocobo. Again I could be mistaken, but I think that is what they were referring to for that particular pic.

Snowdrop would be a funny mount.

I would give the game my life savings for that mount. ;) hehe

Although she'd probably bump into every possible obstacle. Because you know, she's blind and all.

Ummm... not sure if that was a mistake? You just linked me back to my own thread, which is not a citation.

here is another source http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post2528659

I don't know how much more proof you need.

Wow... thanks for not being helpful at all... you're not an SE Dev, nor a GM, so unless you can provide an actual link to where someone that works in SE has said this is true, or show where it's in the patch notes, how am I to know for sure?

Yeah ok I'll just call up the CEO and get him to give you a personal phone call to verify the information. It hasn't been released officially so there is no official source.

Way to be sarcastic, when it's not needed. Seriously there is no reason to be so defensive over this, you have information somehow, unless it's just your best guess, how else are you coming by this info.? It was a simple question, and you just took it way out of proportion...

You could've said that instead of the reply you gave.

Not all NA or English speaking people can read Japanese. You could have said this from the very beginning, but again obviously I don't look inside Japanese patch notes since I cannot read them.

next time, when three unrelated people post an answer at the exact same time, you should just accept it as fact

Guys, if multiple people tell you something is true, it's automatically true. Don't question it or ask for sources, ever lol. ;)

Pretty sure there's something wrong with that message.

it is called a heuristic. You don't have to go and very absolutely everything people say. You take past examples of human behavior and compare it to what is in front of you. This is not a court of law. If three people say something about a video game at the exact same time, then more often that not, it is true. You would be wasting your time trying to investigate further.

Exactly! Just like when people were all saying housing would be around 800k because they heard something about this amount during a live... wait.

If you claim something, back it up or at least don't jump on someone throat when he ask you where you got the info. You hear a lot of bull around here, can't hurt to be cautious.
