Seriously? No mail box?

[Laraul]

Like really? I hope the original developer lives in a box in the freezing cold and is starving to death. How in the world, can someone make so many bad decisions on a game that was supposed to be epic?

Every time I try to convince myself oh, this game isn't so bad I'll try it out again I find a flurry of different things that just blow my mind that they somehow made it passed management...

I really don't like my mithra(or whatever the hell stupid complicated name they decided on), so I decided maybe a new character would be cool, so I go for an elven(again whatever stupid unnecessary complicated name they came up with) but I can't stand the lancer starting gear, so I make a maurader with the plans to mail myself some money and gear to go lancer. BUT THERE'S NO MAIL SYSTEM!? WHAT THE CRAP!

It is unbelievable the amount of garbage I find every single time I try to play this thing....

I don't think it's the lack of a "mail" system that you are upset about... and an Elezen stuck inside the body of an Miqo'te is something many players deal with... you'll cope...

Hello old topic,

How have you been? How's the wife and kids? Really? Oh... I'm sorry to hear that. She re-married who you say? Best friend, huh... that sucks. You're son won't talk to you? Falling out.. I see. Well it's been fun catching up. Let's do it again in a few months.

I think it is relevant to bring this up after they post the details of the housing, not sure why it shouldnt ...

it's funny that you say that. look back at the patch notes. the mail system was in the patch notes to have been in tanaka's march 2011 update. too bad he was removed and it will be 2 years later that we get it.

Exactly, I wonder how the game would be now if Tanaka was still in charge...

TBH I would rather wait 10 months and have a decent mail system than the horrendous trash that FF11 had.

What was wrong with FF11 mailbox system? You send stuff and recieve it in your moghouse... can it be more efficient?

Coldviper, try to give some constructive criticism. Offer suggestions on ways you think they could fix it instead of merely complaining.

Because all I'm getting from your posts is that you hate the game. The race names really aren't complicated, and the fact that you're whining about them is just pointless rage. Maybe another game would be better for you.

The mods should just make a sticky that takes up half of the first page stating "BEFORE YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT SOMETHING IN THE GAME READ HERE TO SEE IF YOUR PROBLEM IS BEING ADDRESSED OR NOT"

What am I saying? These people would ignore that sticky and continue to bitch anyways.

They are more likely to read it...but bitch anyway.

I receive mails with small gifts every day from people I have rescued or soldiers I have helped (NPC). Mail boxes also look real, they are near pubs or coffee bars and I can see from far if there's something new for me. Also other players send mails sometimes - everybody don't like that I'm not to PVP. But not in this game yet.

To be honest... what is the player housing now? A private cinema...
You can't do anything else there (I doubt they will implement furnishing etc yet either)
If you don't want people to complain about yet again unfinished "update" then delay the update and make it proper (imo!).

Hey guess what? It's February (dumbest month of the year because of the extra r) 2012

You are paying for this game right?

In other words, get used to it or GTFO.

The problem isn't the idea or the delivery system concept. It's the craptastic server structure and game coding. Just cause Tanaka planned on having delivery by March 2011, doesn't mean he would have delivered, or the system would have been anywhere near the functional standard any of us would expect. Ignorance is bliss.

As for stuff like crafting in the Inns, the point is you beginning accumulating rested bonus as soon as you enter the room. Crafting in there with indefinite exp bonus would he quite unbalanced.

What we're getting now are player inns. Not housing. Official housing comes in 2.0. Read up before complaining at least.
