Grand Companies

[Colino]

Hooray for complaining about content that's not even in the game yet!

I think that's the point.

And I never said GC will only be some quests, I pointed out they won't.

I DID say that the sidequests that are introducing them are lame to say the least and will continue to be so because I've done every single sidequest in the game and not one of them has been exciting or fun in the slightest.

To be fair while Tanaka was in charge he promised Companies for the Novemeber update, then Yoshi promised them for March and here we are now still none the wiser of what they really will be.

You do know that the dungeons are related to companies, right? Based on that alone they are guaranteed to be better than the side-quests, which I agree are completely lame. The fact of the matter still remains, that unless you are a developer or a tester for SE, you really have no idea what the company quests are going to be like. You can only make assumptions based on what we have now, which may or may not be accurate.

I'm not trying to make assumptions on what they're like, I'm complaining that SE isn't TELLING us what they're like after teasing us about them for weeks on end only to never talk about it again.

That's exactly what I mean, though probably put much more politely than I could.

I was expecting more than the quests at patch 1.17, they were hyping it up so much at the time.

Does anyone remember what's been said for them at 1.18 if anything? Otherwise expecting to see another on the back burner case for another whole patch series when 1.18 hits.

We've heard dungeons are somewhat related to them and that there will be some sort of story content behind it in 1.18 which is most likely sidequests.

As far as the ACTUAL features though we've heard nothing.

The only thing I remember reading is that companies will be the first to enter the dungeons, and that it sounded like there is a requisite quest to go into the dungeon. Whether there is much story leading up to that questor not is anyone's guess, as is the quality/replay value of that quest.

Thanks for the replies. I've really been wanting to see the company leader models in the game as well as the things that would bring a little more nation pride together, but word of those have been far and few.

Hi Mav! Stop trolling our forums.

But sadly, I think the scenario you've described is the most likely one. You going to start playing again?!

/blush!!!

But I've thought about it... I probably will log in for dungeons with everyone... thats about it.. nothing serious..

Not too interested in ranking up Alts...

As we are seeing the first dungeons in 1.18, i doubt that companies will be related to these dungeons or that it will play any role in regards to dungeons. There probably will be dungeons that are Exclusive to Gran Companies but not the regular ones.
