Ok so I PAID 16€ for Sleipnir and it doesnt fly....

Just that, i wonder if SE will make Sleipnir fly, since it was their 1st 16€ mount, i t was worth paying for it, but now i saw they made those ugly unicors able to fly, but not Sleipnir...its just unfair...

I paid for like 15 fantasia's, that's like $105, I should frigging fly :mad:

No! You can't say the words "I paid" if you want to get the community support :O You should just ask for the mount itself to fly without mentioning the evil nature of Mog Station vanity. ._.

Should say "I choose to pay", meanwhile humankind wants mounts to be add in game and not in the MS :3

Except that Sleipnir could fly in mythology and he had no wings but did have 8 legs. It could be said that the extra legs gave him the power of flight but it's usually suggested that the extra legs allowed him to run faster & leap into the air, rather than causing the flight itself.

"-and Odin rides the flying, eight-legged steed Sleipnir across the sky and into the underworld."

He's also part of a Primal, so it's not entirely stupid to give him the ability to fly (compared to the turtle, Fat Chocobo's and Fenrir).

"It's so unfair because it didn't came to my mind that I should inform myself thoroughly before throwing my money at Square Enix. It's not my fault!"

Well if he had been designed this way i won't say anything but here it just looks like a normal horse....

To be fair, there really isn't an excuse for Sleipnir not being able to fly now. If they can make Adamantoise and Fenrir fly, they can make Sleipnir fly, especially seeing the latter comes with a $24 price tag.

That's true, but that's not the point.
OP spent money without informing himself and is now complaining. He's at fault, not SE for not making Sleipnir a pseudo pegasus.

I think they did say Sleipnir will eventually fly. Many posts have been asked about this and they said they will make him fly.

This is hardly thread worthy. Just because you got upset. The forum isn't your Mother for you to run and cry to.

OP never said he bought it now. he could also have bought it 2 years ago when it was released.

Touché.
Most people create these kinds of threads immediately after they realize that they screwed up, though. Now I'd like to know :o

They made Adamantoise and fat chocobo fly FFS! and you get them for free, isnt it logic to add the ability to fly to a paid mount??

As i said, i've been playing this game since the begining, i bought Sleipnir when it first came out and flying mounts wasnt even an Idea in Yoshidas's mind.

Its just that they are making every mount in game able to fly, they should make Sleipnir able to fly too.

Like I said above, I didn't consider this possibility. I apologize.
But at that time, you got what you wanted, right? Complaining about it now just makes you sound kinda salty. Excuse me if that's not the case.
But what would you say if someone complained about most of the old beast tribe mounts not being able to fly? "I put hours and hours into getting these mounts and now only one of them can fly! Please fix this, SE!" IIRC, Odin / Sleipnir don't fly ingame.
And no, that's not all that different compared to paying for an optional mount. Both are decisions people willingly make.

There really isn't an excuse for Sleipnir to be in the cash shop either, but what can you do :p.

(sarcasm on)
Hey while we are at it I want my orginal 1.0 goobue mount to fly. I worked by butt of to get him I demard that he can fly
(sarcasm off)

I paid $150 so I demand my Behemoth to fly.

To be fair, didn't a flying Goobbue get mentioned at some point... I'm still not sure if that was a joke or if Yoshi really intends to do that later on. Just the picture of it is.. lol.

My basic point being we don't need all the mounts to be able to fly.

I think there was some chat in the forum at the time of the goobbue flapping its arms like a humming bird, it still seems silly even thinking about it now

Ehh. Let's avoid that discussion. Cash Shop isn't going anywhere. No use complaining about it lol

While I might have agreed earlier, SE opened the floodgates when they made so many fly. Not to mention, we now have four mounts on the Cash Shop which can all fly. Two of those mounts, while not account bound, are half the price, one the same and one only five dollars more. It's a fair criticism to say "I paid the same as someone who bought Bennu. Why doesn't mine fly too?"

SE brought this on themselves, really. They could have limited flying to say, just your Chocobo.

I don't want to see that ugly ass horse flying around. Keep it land-locked. :P

Also to say it again, Sleipnir isn't a stranger to the skies. Disc 2 FFIX spoilers?

I think the floodgate opened when they showed the Fat Chocobo fly. If something that barely has wings is capable of flight, then anything is possible (and I don't really like that. Hate turtle flying, not a fan of Fenrir flying and I'm not looking forward to seeing what ridiculousness SE has in store for the current tank mounts).

Then don't buy it. Should have read the fine print or did your research before throwing your money away..

Tbh you'd think the horse of an elder god who normally resides in the sky would be able to fly.

That's even worse? If I buy a car now and 10 years from now all new cars have a self driving mode and mine doesn't I'm going to bitch that my car doesn't have a self driving mode and the manufacturer has to upgrade me for free?

They can choose to upgrade whatever they want. The thing you bought didn't have flying included in the price and you knew that when you bought it. If they ever add it, it'll be a generous bonus.

It's your money that flied.

"B-but the manufacturer has given all the other models this upgrade too! A-are you going to say that I am being left out because I made an unlucky purchase, even though I was completely satisfied at the beginning? That's a-absurd!"

While I have no opinion on the "I paid x for this item, at y time, and it does/does not do z", I do have one thought...

Shouldn't Sleipnir fly? I mean, the first time you ever see the mount in the game it is actually flying. In fact, in every Final Fantasy it flies. This would be akin to a winged mount in the game being unable to fly.

Even chocobo can fly, and that's some feat considering their anatomy...

With so many flying mounts around, that should be grounded due to basic ugliness of design, I love the fact that Sleipnir does not fly. I like how much detail it has on the saddle and reigns unlike the bare back riding style of all the Xtreme mounts that just have a pretty color aura but look like a toy my little daughter discarded. I never expected Sleipnir to fly when I bought it but I do like riding it around whenever I can. It does not break my heart that it doesn't but I would also not mind if it gave the option to fly or simply ride just like that big old dragon "whatshisface"

I assume you mean the Unicorns, (primal ponies)? If you are you are wrong cause none of my ponies fly.
