Real Time airship rides

[Klb600]

So since the expansion has finally arrived and "Flight" being a major component of the game, is there a possibility that they'll bring back realtime airship rides like the one from XI? I find it ridiculous that we are still porting and magically appearing from zone to zone...

LOL

you think the playerbase that has spent the last couple days bitching about having to spend time to do anything will actually want to have a real time airship ride?

that's just another roadblock in them getting back to idling 8 hours a day at their free company house

Because...going to an from a city 20 minutes real time..(10 for the wait, 10 for departure) is so exciting.

this is already in game (sorta)

we have real time black chocobo rides. use the porter and bam done!

Lol good point..the're also the reason reason why open world dungeons aren't a thing in this game but I was just hoping that this could be a thing for those that actually want it, I mean what's the point of that huge nicely design airship in Sea of Clouds when it just lies there doing absolutely nothing..seems a waste to me, hell they can even have unique fate appearing from time to time to liven things up..

If you don't want to use it you don't have to, teleports are already a thing, this is just for those who want a little more immersion and verity in there games..

I did like the airships in WoW, but with the crystals, I don't see that getting used much here. Though we'll see what they do with the locations we unlock through the fc airships. In existing areas they'd only add to server lag.

The real-time airship and ferry rides were nothing more than a timesink. They were new and exciting the first, maybe second time. After that it was wholly unnecessary save for the occasional quest and I would like for their archaic design to main in the past where it belongs.
