Question about Job "AF Armor"

[BruceyBruceyBangBang]

@ bruce....I never said the majority is or is not FFXI vets. I simply said I do not factually know, there for cannot claim to. You are also claiming to factually know with no real facts.

This has got to be the most preposterous thing to be stubborn over. You are only saying this to stand firm on the ground and for the sake of not giving another person validation in what they are saying because you're having an argument over the internet.

I see your unknown facts, I suggest a player poll. Just make a thread and have people click like if they played XI and another to click like if they haven't. Which still isn't very accurate since half of the player base are grouped into categories that either don't speak English and don't participate in the head ache of official forums. So, if you want to get REALLY technical you'd just have to use an educated assumption based on what you know.

I'm willing to bet that it will swing to the majority of players in XIV (who are still playing) played XI. This is what makes the argument unnecessary and in need of going back on topic. This is a waste of time.

You could have just said that you don't have time to do it instead of giving an excuse. There are multicolored AF in the data files.

Exactly. Piss poor excuse for it.

Will we be able to choose what color we want our AF gear to be?

wow, people in this thread... lol
Noone knows for sure until AF is released or SE says something. There we go folks, theres your answer, i just ended the thread. gg

I've confirmed with the dev. team that they won't be making it possible to dye job-specific equipment in the future. For some people, jobs and their equipment hold a special image in their minds and there might be those put off by the fact that the image can be altered by being able to dye them multiple colors. We want to maintain that special image by keeping the equipment uniform.

However, in the future, it might be possible to release different colored job-specific equipment as new items.

I was under the impression AF gear fell under job specific gear?

[Betelgeuzah]

Exactly. Piss poor excuse for it.

Blue Warriors, Yellow Dragoons, purple WHM's and green BLM's make perfect sense to Corrderio it seems.

"Because the color of equipment is not somehow a part of the Job's identity."

[Corrderio]

Blue Warriors, Yellow Dragoons, purple WHM's and green BLM's make perfect sense to Corrderio it seems.

Yes because variety is a huge problem.

Here's a crazy thought, if you want "tradition" you can *gasp* keep it the default color!

[Betelgeuzah]

Yes because variety is a huge problem.

Here's a crazy thought, if you want "tradition" you can *gasp* keep it the default color!

People wanted job identity, and the color just happens to be a part of that identity. Especially considering the traditions.

What you seem to be unable to grasp is that gear color is as much of a part of a Job's identity as the model it uses. It's no poor excuse as much as you'd like to think it is.

Here's a crazy thought, if you want "uniqueness" in the current system you can *gasp* make up your own unique gear for your classes that you can choose to not wear on any other but one class. There, problem fixed. Oh wait, no, that sounds retarded. Just like yellow Dragoons and green Black Mages.

[Chinook]

White Black Mages,
Black White Mages,
White Red Mages,
Red White Mages,
Black Red Mages,
Red Black Mages,

It makes so much sense.

Some people want this, not all. Unless you can convince me that the "majority" want this, I call shananagens.

So what your saying is that we should all conform to "traditional" concepts because why?

Its your opinion that color of the gear is representative of a jobs identity, not mine, his or many others.

You mention what sounds "retarded". What sounds "retarded, is someone who did not pay the 60 bucks for our disk or who will not be paying our monthly fees when the time arises, telling us we can't have a color of gear we want. Especially if some of us leveled craft just so we can do such things with our gear.
