I could very well be wrong, but wouldn't this cause major server stress? The game can barely handle players that go after hunts/odin right now. I hope I'm wrong...I really do. But I just don't think Square could pull it off...
    Nah it wouldnt create more server stress. Because people are more spread out in the zone & map size isnt any bigger. Biggest concern I have is there isnt much use to having a boat or using it since areas are limited in water and other concern is do they have the time to add this in? Main issue what your talking about is the amount of players running to a location/staying in one location causing the game to lag and crash.

    Fishing. Fishing everywhere.

    I recall someone once posted about taking a boat ride in either 1.0 or FFXI, where there was a chance you could be attacked by some giant sea monster. Fun times.

    Sea Horror! I remember that. It was XI. There was also a similar boat ride where you could be attacked by pirates.

    I would love for them to add the ability to swim in future content.

    It was FFXI. There was a chance the sea horror could spawn (a fairly high level kraken type mob), and also a chance that pirates could come and summon skeleton type mobs to attack the ferry.

    1.0 had a ferry and you could fish off of it but I don't think there were any mobs or special events.
