Letter from the Producer, XVI (08/15/2011)

So much for "End of Summer!"

So you decide to just disregard all positive information that will be given to us, and instead focus on that one, upsmart, constantly riled and put-down statement, which most of the community don't really care about? I don't understand you. That statement is just asking for people to argue against you, turning that statement into a 'troll' comment.

Yes, it's later than usual, but look at HOW MUCH STUFF there is. I, for one, do NOT want a half-baked cookie coming out. Yes, it may be earlier, but if stuff isn't ready, nor is it complete, why the HECK would I want it? Learn to COMPROMISE. THINGS TAKE BLOODY TIME. This time, with such heavy changes and additions, it will be COMMON SENSE to assume that the patch will be delayed. Everything has a price; the price for us getting this content is them developing it to a satisfactory level which requires time and testing.

I am a hypocrite for saying this, but provide something more constructive than a complaint that gets the community, SE and the game nowhere. Besides, the end of September CAN be considered the end of summer, as previously stated in other threads which you happened to either miss or completely ignore. If the former, we can attest to ignorance, but if the latter, than you are just plain foolish.

I am most excited about the Primal fight and adjustments to battle etc. Though I must admit, the yellow feathery goods and airships make me j*zz slightly. :L

Well this one will be out by end of summer, looks like .20 won't be unless they implement it like 2 weeks after. Stop complaining anyway, it's an epic update!

Exactly, and to be fair to Yoshi-P that's been working around the clock with his head chopped off! ( which is probably the reason why he's sick because that man needs some rest!)This patch notes is going to a Monster compared to 1.18 (3-5times as long?!) 1.18 was long enough but if you Triple that or Times 5? I mean come on the list DIDN'T have Airships and that's coming in 1.19! Let's be Reasonable here Shall we, "Caravan rides" WASN'T in the list but that's coming in 1.19! I will to sacrifice certain things for those very HUGE things that this game needs!

Edit

1 Thing that Caught my eye though:

1.20 More Primal fights Wait what? Each patch going to have another Summon.. 4-5 patches later I suspect Summoner SE!

Wow, your character does look like zell

[Eekiki]

Where's the dislike button!!!!!

Obviously the SE translators have succumbed to the will of Princess Celestia. Soon you will too.

So much changes in the end of September (unless it's delayed but still)? Very nice. I can wait for that :P

"My Little Chocobo system", oh you.

Seems like he's lurking the forums. Or signatures at least. Or he's a fan of the show.

[ShadowCadja]

I mean come on the list DIDN'T have Airships and that's coming in 1.19!

I would suggest you read the letter again... Because Airships were mentioned. -_-

[Zanfire]

some cool stuff for sure...but this game wont feel complete to me until stuff like:

(mainly) world re-design
job system
personal housing
mail system
better server side/less stress on PCs
Solid party system like the one someone made up
making the Wards as effective and convient as an AH


after those are done, il even consider buying the game again on ps3 just for the sake of supporting what changes they did to make the game a true successor to FFXI.

POOP CLAIM SYSTEM, FIGHT IT PLZ.

Gabby Jay ...... YaY!

I love it! It definitely feels like a next-gen chocobo theme, much better than XIII's.

Hey! XIII's Chocobo theme was awesome! xD Almost made me stand up and start dancing in front of my tv. lol
