Thread: CHOCOBOS!!!!!!! 1.19!!!!

In the meantime, rental is fine. However, if in the future, we don't have summonable Chocobos, it will definitely be a reminder of how archaic SE still is. Set in their ways.

It's hard being the voice of reason on a forum with so many old-souls who don't know any better and can't imagine anything better than what they've been fed by SE through FFXI, but there really is a problem with SE if they reproduce the same mount-system they had in FFXI.

Eor example, in FFXI, even the mounts you owned could only be summoned on a cooldown and for a limited time. It's like, why? SE thinks they understand the art of seduction but they don't come across as mysterious by withholding so much, they just come across as stingy and limiting.

This is all on the proviso that they do indeed reproduce the same mount system from FFXI which im sure they wont. (so no offence SE if you've changed).

You are just weird man.

Lololol, I don't know how many times this just doesn't get through some people's brains; features that should have been added ages ago took a back seat to what Yoshi wanted to do right away instead. THAT's why it's taking so long, that's why we're only getting parts of them at a time instead of the whole thing in one patch.

Really? How hard is that to grasp? We know Tanaka lied about the state of the game or at least said enough to mislead just about everyone. Let's just get on with it already, we're getting closer to the game we should have had and we were TOLD point blank this is why we're not getting charged to play yet, because it would take some time.

I swear people will still be bringing up old grievances from launch and Tanaka's time 2 years from now...

Excuse me what about griffin towers? Pretty sure most MMOs have rental horses, griffins, whatever or teleports, or both. The personal mounts are coming too. >.>

*throws towel* I'm done. ;P

You can't avoid the complain train no matter what you implement, chocos are awesome, and even if they're overdue I haven't heard of any suicides over not having one yet. If they updated them earlier I'm sure the same people would be complaining they don't look enough like the realistic horsebirds in their backyard.

Edit: Also I gotta say I appreciate the increased interaction from devs and reps with the community lately, it's always really welcome to get clarifications and info.

Point is we're getting them soon. We ALL know this game was atrocious at release so bickering about it now is pointless.

Yes, we're getting rental chocobos. It's a viable gilsink. We'll most likely eventually get our own chocobo that we can raise since a recent dev post informed us of such a system coming. We'll be getting more stuff for chocobos but we'll have to wait a bit. For now, I'm just pumped for the update next thursday.
