Seriously SE ? (dual rider chocobo)

[Mizar]

I love the outrage over this.

A bonus. For recruiting a friend to the game. Completely optional and in no way game changing.

Might as well put in a full pay to win cash shop, right guys? It's not like every other MMO has recruit a friend features (you know, to create incentive, not only for new players but existing players as well)

Thank you for letting me know Grizzlebeard!

Agreed - Don't really see why this is causing such an outrage - don't want it? don't get it.

ON THE OTHER HAND.

I can see how people would be annoyed if they've already recruited friends to the game and now they can't get it from the friends they've already recruited.
Maybe SE will sort out a fix for this?

Thanks, I have good laugh about "I quit the game for thing that maybe will show up in game at some point later and I think I will not get it".

Please post more stupidness so I can kill free time at work.

This. This is the only reason I am just a tiny, little bit annoyed. Not mad, just mildly annoyed. I've recruited all my friends at this point xD

The "Recruit Now" link at the bottom would seem to indicate it's live but I'm surprised this is the first many of us have heard of this.

If a random on reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/commen...mpaign/cjcwsqf) is to believed, it is live and you can get it with game cards already. Not going to test it out myself though.

Waiting to get off work so I can drop the $90 on 2 time cards and a 2nd game copy for this stuff.... The glory of working in a retail store at least I can just grab and go when done no extra stops ^-^ it's already sitting on the counter to be paid for

what grinds my gears is all of my friends have already either came to the game sometime between 1.0 an now, or have came an tried the game an left. So now I have nobody left to refer. Hell, I myself am still on my wifes buddy pass from 1.0 release, should be able to qualify jsut for that fact right there, but I bet I wont.

I associate the white tipped friend recruitment Chocobo with the black tipped Legacy Chocobo. Meaning that it will be a feature for everyone, but only those who qualify for this particular one will get this colour in the feature. So no stress people.

However.
I would like to see a limited time campaign where we can register the friend code once for those of us who have already recruited people into the game successfully...since right now you need a new account to register these friend codes it really is quite annoying.

if this is true, SE made a mistake by not releasing the info at all.

I'm surprised no one has Chicken Likened this thread yet. "Omg clearly subs are falling so S-E needs to resort to this to get more shekels!"
