Riding Chocobos in town?

[Kam]

There's a difference between being practical and being entirely dismissive.

Also, what's so wrong with chocobos in town. Omg. You guys act like they're the plague.

You are making presumptions. Ive not even stated an opinion about it yet.

I'd just like to know, from a practical standpoint. What do you need a chocobo in town for?


(cus as far as i know, they're being implemented as a practical mode of transportation vs teleing, after patch 1.19* they'll expand on them.)

*edit. heh. almost forgot we have to wait another month or so.

Well wouldn't it take more effort to forbid them from going into town because then the programmers have to implement a protocol for that? In which case from a practical standpoint the issue becomes "why can't chocobos go into town?"

nono, you didnt answer the question. You presupposed it to fit your own means.

I'll simplify it and ask for basic responces i guess.

In what manor would chocobos help or hinder the imerssion within cities? Do you see the need for a town full of afk chocobo'ers. Vs the current style - people not on mounts? What are the implications for many chocobos in tight spaces? (Any Adv. guild for example).

Besides running around faster. I don't see SE biting on this one.

30mill gill says SE have already hammered out a design and like it or not, we'll all have to deal with it. (untill they update it...)

Yeah, another program line or 2, 3, 5.

I always say this: Don't think about this or any other game in the Programming side. Think of the implementation and if it can be cool to have. Then let the developers check it and see if it can be implemented. We Are Not Programmers. (I am, but acting as a gamer would be better in terms of creativity)

Why they shouldn't? They dirt the town (in any sense) and are annoying sometimes.
Why they should? So you can herp derp around the town and/or reach far places (that are easily reachable by feet).

Now Your explaination on why let them =)
