And in 1.20b we'll have...

First off, it was far from clear. And secondly, I'm just tired of people like you who just want to turn this game into XI-2.

I am actually all for different mounts. I just happen to think this one in particular is rather lame. And frankly buddy, not that I want it to be, but HAD they just made FFXI-2 this game would have done waaaaayyyyy better than its doing now. At least then we wouldn't be waiting 2 more years after release for them to progress the game foward. If SE didn't want to draw people to this game that loved FFXI, then they wouldn't have used the exact same races that they had in XI. I love how people get all suprised that there are a lot of us that loved XI that play this game. Doesn't mean I want it to be XI-2. Nice hat btw.

stuff like this needs to be asked in 3rd players poll lol too many people fighting over stuff like this

and hope they can make it where players poll can be accessed from in-game since there are those that don't check the forum and just play the game.

Honestly I think if they want to add additional mounts they should just be different types of chocobo mounts instead of random in-game monsters...

I would love to see them take the time to develope the chocobo system more. Raising one or breeding one that can have a few special abilities would be pretty kick ass.

ffxiv players are a rare breed. fighting over positive additions.

oh please, first anti-jump, now anti-mounts? patetic.

I know, right? Instead of it being a sequel, merely taking what worked and made it better is what any good MMO dev does. It worked for Rift and it's working for SWTOR, what's the problem with it working for XIV using things from XI? SE created both of them lol.

It seems to me only the people scared of an MMO they never played are the ones who think someone is requesting XIV take place in Vanadiel.

It's true, an XI-2 would have done much better than the rushed out unfinished version of XIV we got but that's only because XI was a lot more polished in what it's vision was, XIV wasn't fully realized.

As well as crying over SE using working systems and making it better for another game/MMO, since no other MMORPG company does this ever. Nope, WoW was 100% original when it released in 2004.

How do you know that this is just not an NPC and that we get this as a mount....and SE really? Stop right now -.- Chocobos and maybe even Magi-teck (as a throwback to FFVI) and thats it! Really we dont need 50 cheesy stupid mounts like other MMOs have.....

You have, as a Final Fantasy title, a distinguished and well know form of travel.

Totally AGREE. Unfortunetly, the masses are well... the masses. And the masses demand 50 cheesy mounts.
I feel this is one of those things SE has set in stone, like enlarging the monster size, making it look cheesy. The targeting system is fixed and the monsters are still overly proportionately oversized. -shrug-

Gonna put on my moderator hat here for a minute, and take off easy-going hat (I have a lot of hats, okay?).

For everyone on both sides of the subject ("I love this, can't wait to ride it and be all like "woo, yeah, woo!" and "I hate this, I would never ride such a thing! I can't believe they'd put a carpet on a goobbue!"), it's okay to have a difference of opinion. That's fine. But let's stop the personal attacks because of someone's opinion. It's great that we all have them and it's useful for us to know for feedback, but we don't need posts that are just attacking another player's subjective opinion.

This pretty much goes for all facets of the forum, too.

Thanks, everyone!

Darn you.... just when I was gonna post to call someone annoying. You gotta get all moderatory.

[Supergroovegear]

I just don't get why we can't have other mounts as long as it's not obnoxiously stupid.

Cactuar mount!!

I think the only way this would be possible if they add another module to the interface (kind of like what some MMOs does with their Help/FAQs/Tutorials menu option.)
