    PLEASE make a majority of Gold Saucer games doable while in Duty Finder queue~!

    Don't make them block DF. This will completely take away from what I hope gold saucer to be. I understand that chocobo racing should block/use DF but the other mini games please don't make them drop queue.

    Yeah if I have to drop queue to go play basketball for 15 seconds I'm gonna be pretty upset.

    Was thinking about this myself earlier. The Gold Saucer has the potential to be a great place to kill time whilst waiting for things... if for any reason we can't queue whilst using the attractions it'll ruin one of the primary uses of the entire feature.

    I'm a huge fan of immersion, but lines can die. Fast pass or you're doing it wrong.

    Only problem with some of the mini games is if they can't save their state then people will lose out, if a queue pops with 4 minutes left of game.

    Yeah, let people sign up for a duty, run off to play cards, then run to the fourms to complain how the DF should wait for them to finish a game.

    Chocobo racing and triple triad should block the DF, but the minigames, deck management, and chocobo breeding stuff shouldn't

    I can see this. Specifically Chocobo Racing I actually expect to be in DF because it's against other players in groups. And TT may or may not be depending on if it's against an NPC or an actual player.

    But other minor stuff like this definitely should not block DF, and I don't think it will.

    TT i imagine blocking the DF simply because it CAN be done against other players, and if they didn't people would come to the forums and complain about the lockout they got when they were "THIS CLOSE!" to beating Rowena.

    Pretty sure I saw the Chocobo Racing demonstration pop up a DF queue when they showed it last week at that Nico Nico event. It makes sense since it needs 7 other players but I hope there are still some races against the CPU, so that at least you can play one of its modes meanwhile while waiting for another queue including a race queue, or else it'll end up having a similar situation to Frontlines, i.e. content that's actually fun gated behind pretty long queues.
