My "Letter from the Producer, XVI" thread

Although i think this game has gotten alot better from lauch, bought CE ,and many of these up coming changes should make it hopefully better to play and enjoy, its still missing some basics like a seek party ability that actually works. For a party based game this should have been one of the first changes... why has this been ignored??? or does everyone want to only work within their own LS and ignore the rest of the population ....
Also the horrible way we buy/sell items, can anyone really say that the retainer system is a good thing....dont get me wrong at lauch it was almost unuseable and now its just a pain but usable.

Im interested to see how the new level and point system works, i liked the idea of the old system but just thought it needed some tweeking on the stats so when you max out a stat it would show more benefit, but maybe this new way will be better.

i personally still have some lag issues with the UI .. i click on a spell like cure and sometimes nothing happens been an issue in parties. i didnt see anything mentioned about this,was hoping to see some possible fixes here too, but maybe these other UI fixes will take care of it.

Anyway as a whole the game is getting much better but is missing some things that i think should be first not last on there LARGE list of fixes needed....

"Regarding the UI; currently working on server and client communication system root remodeling and if this completes they should be able to work on the areas where lots question “WHY can’t they do it?” (Guessing most likely referring to stuff like search functions, linkshell functions, which should have been basic stuff)" The was an interview in august with the developers from a JP mag.

I liked reading this because it let's me know they are working on LS function and hopefully smoothing out the UI even further amongst other things.
