Better Chocobo controls please

Let's be honest here there's no feeling of weight or acceleration when using a chocobo in any of the FF titles.

I think it's about time this aspect of the FF games gets some better gameplay programming.

Riding a horsebird shouldn't feel like I'm a hovering cursor over the landscape.

Some examples of games where riding things feels different than walking:

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (GREAT acceleration system!)

Shadow of the Colossus

Basically whatever feels better than just a 3d object moving without weight.


I have faith in you SE you can do it!

No. I don't want to have to mash a button while riding a Chocobo.

Riding a Chocobo should be like a game of QUOP

I'm ok with this!

yeah, I wish an mmo would implement a riding system like in Shadow of the Colossus. just with the acceleration and turning physics/speed (not the standing on the mount stuff)

Everything about that would be amazing.

It is fine the way it is.

Turning motions would be nice.

riding chocobo is hard

So many things to be improved in this game and this is what you come up with.

good job.

[Thanks for the offer, but I am going to have to pass]

I prefer control over realism in a mmo.

??? Controlling a chocobo is no different than controlling a player, and that's how it should be.

I did love the twilight princess horseback riding... :}

Maybe people wouldnt mind as much if you could use gysahl greens to give that short burst of speed

Let's save this for breeding and racing.

Nah that would be pointless..

Why did you use Agro as one of your examples.

That horse was one of the worst things ever!

Given how not hard it is to program physics for acceleration and turning, would be a bit nice to have a bit of that in there, not much just enough to make it noticeable and give a reason for it being there without impeding anyone.

No thanks when i ride chocobo im usually trying to get somewhere fast. With the current layout of the area, bring able to get stuck on a little rock, this would make it frustrating to control chocobo. Maybe make the chocobo able to jump like any mounts from other mmO
