Speculation on comments from Yoshi P

I heard Yoshida said we were going to get free company submarines. I hope this means an underwater version of diadem is in the works!

Oh my god. I just came from reading a post about housing, so my first and serious thought was that the submarines were for housing. Yeah.
Well, I have nothing further to add to the thread, so pardon me.

Well I can tell ya from personal experience that having ground targeted only abilities in a true 3 dimensional fight, well, sucks.

Found this if this is the one you are mentioning. Says submarine will come in 4.2, bot no details as of yet.

• Iconic job emotes! :D
• Achievement/reward for running older dungeons
• Ability to eat while seated
• And a link with Yoshi playing blm in a raid. Party ask him to manashift and he says, I am black mage, I am here to damage not support.

Found it just as you were linking. Thanks!

Let us use the Submarines to find and fight Emerald Weapon!

Well, we could have a underwater hidden domed area or something with a flat ground instead of underwater combat.

Diadem haters.

My immediate guess would be these are just Free Company airships under a different name instead of something you physically control.

Yeah and I am hoping we get somewhere special to go that they can take us to.

Can't say I love the idea of them shoving emotes and etc on running old dungeons 100+ times.

Was that one of the things he mentioned? I just saw "Submarines" and stopped reading in excitement.

When the veteran rewards changed recently, they announced things being obtainable via achievements in game more now. In this interview they say 90% in game and 10% cash shop locked. I don't think the comment specifically state everything will be earned via old dungeons.

I would think it would be sort of like now. Gold Saucer has different things, but if you don't like gold saucer, you don't have to do it. Same for raids, same for old dungeons. I am glad that we can possibly earn more things in game. I won't be subbed for every special event or spend a ton of money in the cash shop. Makes the sub actually feel better for me personally.

Yep. It was more him and Fujita spit balling:

Fujita: It'd be really great to see a reward, an achievement, or something running older content. Tie it to per-job basis so more runs in total happen. Maybe even leveling roulette.
Yoshi: Good idea. I think we would have to set the bar high, like 100 completions of a dungeon. By the way, there are some notorious dungeons that are old content which may be a bit of nuisance for people trying this...

So was Yoshi talking about aurum vale?

I despair at reddit. The sane comment that we don't need this stuff when there's a lot of other issues that should come first, even UI issues or optional issues, gets downvoted to heck, while everyone is happy that Yoshi is saying such absurd things. Can you imagine needing to call people to the crafting area in your FC house for two different vehicles, both of which might make different crafts?
