Wow, no mention of Auction house / MW improvements

[syntaxlies]

all they need to do is make it so you can buy directly from the item search counter from any of the 3 citys wards. if all three were linked then people would use different wards(not just uldah).

Grid and LL wards are just safe havens for crafts bots right now. i went in there yesterday and 2 people were botting in one ward.

Just the fact that there are constant wars on these boards about this exact topic should tell the devs that it's not an issue that should get pushed aside.

maybe it wasn't mentioned because it's not happening?

...what a shocker considering it's not needed.

They announce they add new content:

Wars ignite.

They announce they're adding jobs to FFXIV:

Wars ignite.

They announce anything, wars ignite. They stated time and time again an AH will not fix anything and that they're working on the MW. Read the dev tracker, read what our reps Bayo and Rikki translate, they do it for a reason.

Holy cow. Seriously, are we not capable of discussing a subject without getting juvenile? What is the point of these flamed responses? Do you enjoy arguing with people on a message board?

Let's keep this civil people. I know this subject has been beat to death, but to me, that just tells me that it's something that the playerbase considers extremely important.

UGH, you people need to learn to read!

This Q&A was about two things and ONLY two things:

Personal questions for Yoshi-P

Info about Patch 1.19

Since there is obviously going to be no AH in patch 1.19, why would they answer questions about it.

There is going to be another live Q&A in late October / early November to talk about 1.20 and beyond. THAT is where you'll hear about AH/Market Ward improvements, as well as linkshell administrative functionality, party search, etc.

And it was NOT taken off the to do list. The to do list we see is for everything up to 1.20. There is another to do list that will be about 1.21+, and market ward improvements/alternatives will be there.

Once again, READING IS FUNDAMENTAL

I didn't flame anyone or call names, nothing like that. Just stated the facts, facts that I've been saying since day one, facts that the dev team seems to have acknowledged as well.

The whole AH argument has been made time and time again since this games release and the simple fact is that the wards do (almost) everything an AH could do, you just need to walk to a retainer to pick up your items instead of buying from a menu.

I see you lack the ability to respond without letting your emotions get in the way.

Emotions? Are you kidding? You're kidding, right? Message boards don't require emotion... Oddly enough, they do require reading comprehension.

Don't bother. I quoted the information from lodestone only to be told my emotions were getting in the way... /sadpanda.
