    I can see this happening, it doesn't take a fool to realize that the future of technology is in the mobile phone/smart phone sector. Try and watch a T.V commercial break that doesn't have a cell phone advertisement. For that matter try and watch a commercial period without it having some sort of "join us on facebook" message.

    After watching The Social Network, I don't know why SE would not want to leverage that vehicle and/or mobile phones. I recall reading an article in Forbes about Zynga - the guys who made Farmville. Well there are 4 billionaires related to Zynga. BILLIONAIRS. Looks at Angry Birds. That creator has made a BILLION dollars as well.

    Square Enix is already heavy into the app store for Apple. they just released FF3 in HD on the iPad and is charging $15 dollars a pop for it. They have 3-4 other titles out there as well. They could develop an app with several of the features listed above and charge 5-10 dollars for it, and I'm pretty sure every FFXIV gamer would buy it.

    Seriously, SE needs to get on this. If they reported a loss last quarter, this is a sure fire way to make some good money

    It's easy money really and i wouldn't even be surprised if they are already working on it and they just didn't announce it yet. You make excellent arguments btw

    There's an Android App that let's you chat in game from your phone over 3G.


    SE would probably ban you if used it.

    If someone took the time to make a custom app for that then i guess it's a good sign that SE should do it.

    Its quite simple, you install a program on your home pc, login as normal, open up some ports that chatty can listen in on and then you just install app on your phone, then you send messages to your home pc which the app will pick up and type out ingame for you.

    Did you try font creator 6 also known as "high logic font creator"? To save a font you'll need a legit version so go download it at one of them legit sites everyone goes to *whistle* then just load it in and then Tools > Glyph Transformer > and at bottom it says "Outlines - Scale" with some %, put it to a % you think would be more suitable, If you go too big it might go outside the box so would need some adjusting in the other options.

    *Insert Square Enix comment about not wanting to give players unfair advantages here*, I don't know about you guys, but I actually know people who refuse to be on facebook due to the privacy rights, and I neither have a iphone nor an android (i know I'm a nub, I still have a nice touchscreen though, if it was a super compatible app for most modern phones I'd be cool with that)
