Yes, another player is quiting or taking break

BOSS: OMG, we gotta release something to keep the players playing!

SE TEAM: Oh really? Do we have enough time before all those players quit?

BOSS: Don't care! Just release something fast!

SE TEAM: Ok, something fast....

** /make 20 mobs with more hp **

SE TEAM: DONE, BOSS!

BOSS: So fast! good works guys, show me the new stuffs!

** Boss logged on his FF14 account and used like an hr to kill 20 bigger mobs with some "EPIC" R30 loots**

BOSS: WTF was that?

SE TEAM: BOSS, that's it. Just get on Lodestone to write a letter with your R60 EPIC marketing skills to impress the players.



BOSS: $!^$^@%^@%... ok...

**Boss released his recent letter without any " real details" of the new stuffs.... plus a few words on our "bright future"... followed by 2 Dev team notes that created some hypes for most players, the titles included "20 new NMs" and "Companies System" **

FF players: ZOMG, I'm not going to sleep on Thursday nite with the new NMs

** Actually, personally, i fall into sleep after killing some Big dodo, crab, rat....whatever. I feel no different than killing a digger with 3-4 R10 players**

___________________________________________________


Well, u can call me a hater... whatever.

But the fact is, if the update notes earlier this week was talking about "we're going to add some mid range activities for lowbies, high end Dungeons will be in a month...etc". I won't be so disappointed. Also i fully understand the earthquake last month really screw things up a lot. If you have to delay the plan, it's ok.

I know you gotta do all the marketing strat... but... i mean... how many times did we go "OMg new stuffs, we have hope!" and end up went back to ground zero in a day or 2?

I just felt like I signed up with those "$20 a month and u can talk all you want" phone plans, and end up paying $60 a month even the phone always has no signal. Yes Marketing! Thanks so much!

I guess i'll just slow down... or even stop for a while. Until i see something real on lodestone. I can't stand those "eye candies" Dev team posts anymore.

well, they never said this is a endgame patch neither , so i don't see the reason to complain

and that's their mistake

people request endgame stuff but they release a lot of half game stuff

Everyone playing now is a beta tester playing for free, they don't care if you leave or not. They only care what they can attract when they actually release the game at P3 launch. *hint, paying customers.

Haters gonna hate...

And this is another mistake. People complain there're nothing to do at 50 aside nm, but 1-49 is even worst since there's really nothing but exping. Some middle content is needed.
edit: also, this is another mini patch, not a major wich is coming on summer

Had a ton of fun last night after the update. My LS mates and I were running around trying to track down new NM's. We got a few before the camps started. I am really impressed with the battle effects. I really like the party buff, and the NM's so far are alot of fun. Especialy tracking them down. Good work SE. Also the sidequests are even better now. I am seeing way more detail on the world of Eorza.

Funny post MonChici. I wonder if people without a cool signature actually play the game. Or maybe they are ashamed to show that they are flaming about gameplay when they are running around at R10.

Hell, I wasn't even expecting NMs til they announced it the day before. This game is free right now, FREE! Why is everyone complaining about every little thing. They added/fixed a lot with this patch, it's not SE's fault that you rushed to get to 50 when there are other things to do in the game.

And why would they add 'End Game' stuff when it's obvious they will be raising the level cap at ps3 release... a.k.a. you aren't at end game yet, you are in beta get over it.

I am disappoint - The update is a bit lacking; in some ways it's to be expected with the recent disaster. I guess if people are still playing and having fun it's okay, but if very few are still having fun, then SE needs to rethink the way that they're going about this FF14 make-over.

So take a break and come back later, or don't come back at all.

I seriously do not understand why everyone has to post that they are leaving the game. It's not like the game is going to disappear nor will you be missed.

I'm not trying to be mean or anything and if i knew you on your server I'd welcome you back from your break.
But posting stuff like this just gets to me.

people complain about content when they get content, same people complain about not getting content when they dont get content.

its ok to quit, your not paying to play anyways

You Know what I am personally tired of the haters and trolls. They are not gonna release a bunch of content/end-game content until the battle system is in place. FACT. They are redoing the entire battle system, you think that is easy? The earthquake and tsunami cost them a months time. If you don't understand that or don't have a bit more patience, then please do all us that understand a favor and Quit. SE is on the right path with XIV, but until the new battle system is in place you aren't gonna see a bunch of content especially end game content.

It has nothing to do with ENDGAME. Or HARDCORE. Why do people keep thinking this.

THE GAME IS TOO EASY FOR BEING AT ANY LEVEL.

You can also just quit the game or have a temporary leave of absence without actually making a rant thread.

so.... can i have your stuff?

hard=/=fun

With that being said some easy content is fun. get that through your head and mab yo will have fun.SE is trying to make the game fun.. ff11 was not easy and it failed compared to wow (which was easy) so what do you think SE is gonna do with the second MMo? (Hint they are going for the fun route)

Also just because SOME content is easy doesnt mean ALL content will be easy. So stop bitching leave the game AND forums and come back when SE starts to charge people to see if you like it then.

@ OP see ya!

That's not a mistake, the majority of work they're doing is prep work for a PS3 launch that's supposed to jump start this game once again - those of you who have stuck it out this far are probably the least of SE's worries considering, well, you stuck it out so far so they're probably optimistic about your future monthly payments...you guys know exactly what is coming, hell I know, and I barely play the game - so why are you all complaining?

SE doesn't need to rethink their redesign of FFXIV as we haven't even gotten one redesign implemented yet.

This was a good update, SE, don't worry about troll threads like this. Some people will never be happy, no matter what, ever. Good example with this thread.

You DO realize that this is actually part of the long term plan to make the game more engaging for the PS3 launch...

They need to fill in the holes in the middle~

Oh, yeah! they using us, the PC users as a beta tester for their PS3 big plan

I knew

No one cares. If you want to quit or take a break, then do it. Don't make a big production about it and start a troll thread.

Win thread!!

Lol FAIL ALERT

Thanks for your kind comment.

Well, this theard isn't about complaining about no big NMs yet or what so ever. But the way they release past 2 Dev team notes and the Producer's letter. It was kind of misleading. That's all I want to say in my thread. Enough false hopes.

Yes, no one care about someone is leaving or now, but hopefully SE team does. troll thread, haters.. yeah! so true. But I guess making comment on the game is kinda what SE team want to hear in this so called "PC is the beta for real money big time PS3 bah bah bah...". If everyone just say good job.... oh well...

Again, if u can read. I said it's ok to wait especially after the earthquake in the original post. But, false hopes... (No, Thank You. I'll pass on this one.)

They haven't said anything in the letters that was "misleading." He was very clear this and that and the other thing isn't coming right away. No dates were ever given for anything. If he mentions this or that and you don't immediately see it in a patch, it doesn't mean it's not being worked on.

Yoshi-P has been more upfront and honest than any staff member from SE has ever been. There are no false hopes except the ones you created for yourself that are based on your own misinterpretation of what has been said in official channels.

I don't know who you are, but your complaining does not speak for me. There should be a dislike button next to the "Like" button...

I like how people say its free when we paid for the game.... ... ....

keyword "paid" meaning they have no reason to update the game any further than when we first go it

but we are getting updates that we are not paying for which in every other sub based MMO, u do.

In regards to false hope its because the OP about the letter is reading subjectively as opposed to objectively. making assumptions based on what they want to read is what greats this mis understanding. Many people though literate are not objective readers but read things subjectively not for the content thats there but for the content they want to see.

This is why we have so many troll threads and people not understanding the process. How many posts have we seen where people say something is in a letter and quote and the wording is different than what was actually written. Its simple people do not read the letters properly.

dude seriously... your not helping things. And you are making it about hardcore by complaining the game is to easy.

Sometimes I wonder - why do people make a whole thread just to say that they're quitting a game? People do that every day, wether that be FF, WOW or whatever.

NMs like this are not content: they are not useful to level since they doesn't give much xp (at the level they are designed for) and they are not useful to end-game since they are trivial to down at 50 and doesn't drop anything useful.

They need to make them worthwhile of being fought at rank 30. Making them give a lot of sp at this rank would be nice. A rank 30 drop that will be discarded 10 ranks later is not nice at all.

Hell, they have that quest system, why don't they use it? Is it really hard to make a quest requiring to kill a NM without any char more than rank 35 and giving a nice xp reward?

same reason why someone would write a letter before they commit suicide; its to find someone who cares. and i dont mean it as a joke.
