Thread: FFXIV Instances 1.18 Gratitude Thread

this has got to be a joke thread. there is no way anyone that has played a game that is supposed to be pay per play can actually say they have been working hard and making the game better. this game is just the same as release if not worse than it was.

if it is getting so much better then why are people still leaving a game that is free? the answer is because it is not.

Rewriting the server coding and game so that items don't cause so much burden due to Tanaka's team's terrible job in itself is a big undertaking but it goes unknown.

But you don't think about that, do you? You want phat loots to make your stupid investment in this game to get 2+ rank 50 classes despite the fact levelling is wholly unenjoyable worthwhile.

You're bitter, we get it.

Edit: I'd say this is pretty much a flame-bait thread, probably best to ignore it.

Not only that, but I honestly don't get why people say that the Dev team isn't working hard enough or fast enough. What do they think the team is doing over at SE? Do they assume the Devs go to work every morning and just do nothing at all? Maybe they sit around in a drum circle all day? Staring contests?

You play quite a bit for someone who hates this game so much.

It's apparent that you didn't play at release, or have forgotten... If the option existed to play the release version or this version I would pick our current build.

However that being said, they still have a long way to go... I'm hoping 1.18 will be a huge step in that direction as it will be the first real update from the new team.

By the time the game is one year old I'm thinking we'll see a whole new game, much like we did with XI, only we didn't have access for the first year the game was out here in North America.

actually yes i did play the game on release. sorry the changes that were made from release that made to make the game better were done by tanaka. ya know the changing of the sp system. i remember how i loved hitting a crab and having the mages get 5 times as much sp as i did although they did zero damage.
