Swimming and Diving Improvements

[TankHunter678]

I feel that Magitek Armor mounts should get an unlockable Torpedo emote.

for everything to load, that had to make diving a separate zone.

I actually had the misconception before that the underwater areas are separate from the map but then I saw someone swimming on the surface while I was underwater. You can also see people inside the underwater air bubbles and vice versa. So, yeah, they are not actually "separate" even though it looks like it is. Still wished it was more seamless like the one in Archeage, though.

Late to the party, and a potentially unpopular opinion, but I really, really wish Diving/Swimming mounts and Flying mounts were kept separate.

While you may find it silly, it legitimately annoyed me when I got Syldra and found myself hovering and flying for no sane reason. And now that I'm actually in the SB areas and dealing with diving, having my birds, dragons, etc. (including a sodding cloud of all things) function as underwater mounts without even giving new animations to them is feeling really, really irksome to the point I'd almost rather forego them.

May sound extreme, but I'd just rather we not have gotten diving if its not going to get the polish it deserves. :-/

PS4 limitations, please look forward to it.

I believe there's a "decency" problem with showing the soles of the feet as in a lot of countries/cultures it is classed as bad manners or possibly even pornographic. It is easier to always show a shoe/foot covering than have to adjust the game for certain regions to prevent bans or adult classification.

...Wait, showing feet in this game is pornographic?
Where's my blanket? I'm about to die from laughter real bad again. xD xD xD xD

Btw, my friend is Nigerian and I've never heard of this in my life so...also we show hair and stuff in this game but don't Muslims have some women wear the Hajibs? (Apologises if I said it wrong.) I dunno, I think you're being too serious on it. Didn't Yoshi explain why the no shoes are a thing?

B) Let us use mounts on surface. There is no logical reason that we dismount the moment we touch the surface, while we can use the mounts underwater.

You don't dismount when you fly into the water or fly out of the water.

You can fly right into the water...splash into the water and less that half a second later you are underwater. Likewise, you can fly right out of the water into the sky with a seamless move.

The only thing I can think of is, you havent learned flying yet

About A. Are you on a regular PS4? Because my load time is literally less than a second

[NinjaTaru72]

The only thing I'd like to have added for swimming/diving would be mounts swimming.
I'd love to be able to walk my chocobo into the water and then have him swim like a duck. Would be great for not being able to fly or people who want to "boat" around.



Add to that, give certain mounts(looking To you fat chocobo and mana slicer) the ability to let us fish off them. =D

[Synrin]

Countries that would give a game adult rating cause of a bare foot excuse me a moment

You would be surprised what sort of things get censored and in what ways. Glad you've been raised under a crystal bell tho.
