A Letter to the Producers & Developers - Suggestions & Improvements - Part 1 of 2

[Stryker88]

Please read this initial post and the reply just below, 1000 character cap per thread post got me

Chocobo Breeding and Training:
This would be injunction with racing. Set enhancements like incubators, nesting materials, etc. to better enhance starting stats for Chocobo Racing(see idea below). In Addition, Chocobo Stall(s) to Housing would add better visual integration. To keep territories populated, have breeding materials, foods, training sites scattered across the 3 City controlled areas with rarest items being found in your outer areas. Training sites would enhance the Chocobo racing stats that focus on things like discipline, speed, stamina, etc.
Incorporating Grand Company with Facilities with reduce cost benefit example:
Twin Adder: Stamina Facility.
Maelstrom: Discipline Facility.
Immortal Flames: Speed Facility.

Gardening:
This idea came from FF11 with how you could garden interior to the housing. It would be great to see it ported into FF14. It could be made into a guild task as well.

Weather:
It would be great to have seasonal weather going on in each of the main cities and mist.

Chocobo Racing:
Adding racing with 5 different racing tracks cycled monthly, 60 initially. Player skill matching for pvp, regionally based. As part of the racing tracks, randomize obstacles and direction to minimize bot success and adds pvp competition scope. No class experience reward though so players are not grinding it for class leveling. Leader Boards.

Player Housing:
This would allow players to show off their own creative view on housing and to start competitions amongst players for the coolest or seasonally themed housing, etc. Keep pricing moderately high to make it an earned right. I think the failure with Free Company housing is not many want to contribute to it since it's pretty much the FC leader's house and that contributing player could be removed at any time.

Card Game:
Add a monster card game, like Tetra Master or Triple Triad. In addition to it, have player skill match queuing, regionally based. Rewards could be the choice of gaining a card they don't have, to items, to maybe card enhancements. No class experience as well. Leader boards.

Classes:
Would love to see more classes from FF Tactics! Engineer Class would be sweet!

Thoughts?

Not only do you not need to make several posts, you definitely don't need to make several threads. Make one post, edit that post, and add more to that one post. You can edit one post to be pretty big.

Gardening is going to come but you have to have an expensive house to Garden so basically most players wont be able to do it even when its released. lol

I did enjoy that a ton from the last FF mmo. Just sorta wish they would bring these scale of worlds back to Pre-FF10 era games with today's technology. Everyone I know wants a FF7 remake but I would even more content with a HD quality game of the Crystal based storylines as well.

isn't seasonal weather here? i noticed it snowing in several cities recently..

what i would like.. is in crafting.

if i need something that's crafted earlier ( like Ash lumber ) in a recipe but it says i have none i want to be able to click the item and go straight to the crafting menu for that item/
