Another Tetra/Triple Triad thread

[Mushy]

I was reading the Tavern thread, and I figured what better reason to go is the Taverns could host tourneys for players, among the other things listed in that thread.

Great ways to handle card distrobution:
Starter pack, for signing up to begin with.
Monster drop cards that go into their own inventory.
Gil for booster packs with random cards perhaps 1 or 2 'rares' per booster
Company seals, cards specific to company.
Beating PCs/NPCs in the game will reward you with one card from the players deck.
Trading

I know this topic has been beaten to death, but the majority of the code is written ff8, ff9, ff11s tetra master, surely you can implement what has been written.

I personally would become a permanent paying customer for a number of years with this one feature alone. It is the perfect time sink when you are not battling or crafting.

So in case I missed it, has there been any dev response if this is anywhere in their plans?

Tetra Master sucked, Triple Triad ftw

Final Fantasy 8 is actually the one FF I have not played. Everyone says triple triad was better. I am not opposed to either, but we need a card game. Whether it is one of those two, or a unique one to FFXIV

[Gramul]

I'd rather have something totally original for XIV.

QFT.

Triple Triad was one of the best mini-games in any FF.

I actually have a collection of the limited release physical cards from back in the day.

I know there are priorities to the dev, but they are overlooking something that can provide weeks-years of enjoyment with one small portion of the team working on it. And I think the ways I listed to obtain the cards would make it very fun like giving you a reason to kill monsters you wouldn't normally mess with (level 1 monsters???)

Another great thing they can do is have Akihiko Yoshida do all the card art work (:

Shameless Tripple Triad thread plug.

[Mushy]

So how do we tell the developers we really want this? It has been brought up so many times, and I don't remember much more than them saying it is something they wanted to implement. That might of been almost a year ago already. So does anyone know of Yoshi or any of the forum mods, posting new infos on it?

[Ashaylin]

The devs have answered the question somewhat. It went along the lines of that they think mini games (in the general sense - nothing specific to TT) are a great idea and they'd like to implement it in the future, but as of right now it's something to do in the far future. They have too much to fix/do right now for it to be a priority.

As a note to the devs: If you implement an in game Triple Triad (or any game similar to it) you'll get my immediate subscription.
