Seek Party Flag + /sea all command PLEASE!

[AlphaLion]

Totally agree!

Would be awesome additionally to the (LFG-)flag and /sea command structure from FFXI to have a menu based search function, where you can filter the various search criteria (class, level range, flag type, etc.) that gives the result list. This list should be the same that pops up when using the /sea text command.

I would like something similar to the ffxi system, with the colored dots to display what type of group you are looking for and the /sea all function and search comment.

But, i would like a couple improvements to it:

1) allow the person searching for group to select what class they want to be displayed while searching. This way they can do other things like craft and gather while looking for a group on lancer. If they are not looking for group, when someone /sea name they would get the persons current class.

2) allow party leader to right click on the player that is looking for a group so that the leader can see what other classes they have. This would be nice so that you can see if the DD/tank/Mage has access to preferred abilities for the task at hand. This would also help if a conjurer/dd/tank isn't openly searching for a group, but someone who is lfp might have access to the role. This will also be good when evaluating if you want to invite someone to the LS.

I think the ffxi system with those improvements would be just about perfect.

I like both of your idea's, but before we start asking for things that are more intricate we need to get them to scrap what is in place. It is far to over complicated. No one wants to use it.

I have been saying this since day 1 that we need a seek/search system similar to FFXI.

i like how i posted on this yesterday and now its 1 of the main topics on forums... the most simple and greatest thing they could do is make it so you can actually create a good party easily. a /sea all feature(which can be /sea all con or gld etc with lvl range 1-50 not just a /sea all) like the one in 11 would be great. I think the biggest problem with the system now is nobody uses it, its confusing and its really clunky.

when i check it, its always a person making a party but never any info. if i created a party even with info im relying on ppl to check it and send me a tell which is a pain, i could look for ppl seeking now but thats rare. id be lucky to get 2-3 ppl my lvl to actually pt with this way.

PLEASE FIX THE PARTY CREATION/SEEKING SYSTEM!!!

Heres a vote: A: would you want to keep the ff14 system and have them try and fix it? could be done with announcement and all so ppl know and a easy guide to use it.

OR

B: have them completely get rid of current system for a completely new and usable one possibly copying most if not all of 11s system?

id like to see A but would be fine with B.

Yes now I realize actually that it cannot JUST be a flag up, because I want to be able to be doing leathercraft while LFP, and not show up a Tanner on the search.

So we need a LFP flag + Option to choose which class to show (or even multiple classes) + Box for typing in a message.

That would be SOLID! Not a very complicated thing at all.

simple and ingenious. this should be the bases for party menu function. a /sea all feature and BOOM party time.

Hmm. Yes. I concur.
