Ready Check~

[Hohenheim]

This would really help when you are in a party where the members speak different languages. Very good suggestion.

Recently I've been a little more casual cause works been a little busy but I completely forgot about possibly being helpful to people who speak other languages makes this a more awesome option!

This feature could be a big help, at least for me, since I am always out for some Cappuccino from the coffee shop next door.

No thanks, I don't want a menu to pop up everytime I go do an event.

Did you even read the thread? Ready check have nothing to do with "anytime you do an event". It is something that a raid leader (or assistant) trigger in order to make sure that all players are ready (typically before a boss encounter) but it could also be in a random party, after everyone took a 5 minutes break, to make sure that they're all back.

While it is a small inconvenience to players (forced to press "ready"), it is a useful tool for a raid leader. If you do not want your leader to use this feature you may as well leave the party, no one will miss you. If you are in a LS run, with everyone on teamspeak and focused, that's not really needed either with a party of 8. However when we will be having content for alliances, this will be another story.

Ready check have more than one use as well. It can also be used a quick voting system. "Press ready if you are willing to go for the next boss or don't if you want to call it".

Not overtly worried about it the current way with / seems to work perfectly fine.

Last thing we need is SE to decide to pop a box in our window we need to checkmark before we enter the dungeon...

Thats the last thing we need is it ?, I think you mean its the last thing you want.

Why because its in WoW and Diablo 3 ?

Yes to the OP I would love a ready check option a pop up box would be even better.

While it is a small inconvenience to players (forced to press "ready"), it is a useful tool for a raid leader.

Don't believe that, clicking a ready option in a pop up box is no more inconvenience than type /, some people will grasp at straws to argue a point.

Of course you could say that typing / is an inconvenience also but I guess those are the people who sit and don't reply when you ask if they are ready of not.

If it's in another game (even if it's useful) then it shouldn't be in XIV! It makes the game less unique! /sarcasm

I know I'd appreciate a /ready popup... there have been a few times when groups that I've been in were taken into places when members were AFK or we needed to discuss strategy first and someone Leroy Jenkins'd us in.

Interesting thing you are talking about here. Why not implementing some vote feature eventually?

We had /nominate command on XI so yeah, it would be nice to have that on XIV as well, but that's another thing The problem with /nominate is that lot of people weren't voting and it wasn't possible to really track who voted what, so that have a different purpose.

Having both would be the best, but that's the ready check thread so focusing on ready check here ^^

Your wisdom is dazzling me, Antipika!
