November? really?

[SummerStar]

I could go off for an hour on all the stuff we didn't have before and how it took them over a year of development but that would be too much work so I'm just gonna pass your post off as trolling. Or stupidity, whatever is more accurate.

I'm actually curious on how 3.0 was different from 2.0, I'm not gonna say like "Oh, there's nothing actually new!" I want to know how much content was actually added to the game that wasn't already done in 2.0.

Attacking someone about their personal life on the basis of a list of things that they still want to do in-game seems kind of misguided at best; at worst it's terribly aggressive and rude. So they enjoy many aspects of the game. What's it to you? Why does that make you feel the need to ask them about their personal lives and what they do or don't have there?

I'll never understand this attitude.

I don't argue, you thought I was asking a question, you misunderstand.. Must be a lot of boys in here. O.o

First off, you're going way off topic.

Second off, gender has nothing to do with this game, there's girls in my static and they're sick of having nothing to do as well, so much that we all just play other games, we were really hoping for a sooner release date for 3.1, but November is insane, if you have things to do outside of the game, that's totally fine, enjoy yourself, but please understand, for some of us, this is where we go to play with our friends and hang out, real life is aggravating, I don't need this game that I play for fun to become static and aggravating as well.

Would have love a bit more meaningful info though. There's literally no hype build up from the liveletter. Void Ark and the explolration were shown as still being development, but I'm not completely sold on it (especially the void ark gear sets, it looks like remodeled law gear)

Mudra fix is all the hype i need. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

A life, do you need it? >< My god, do you work? Or go to school? Have a relationship? ANYTHING? I cant personally run through the content like that. Ive more then enough to do in the game..

Maybe it never crossed your mind, but perhaps I've been ignoring all of that and focusing on just one thing at a time for a couple hours every other day or so. With the extended interval between 3.1 it means I can slack off more on the main and do something else in game, or spend more time elsewhere. The list of things to do is excessive because there are some folks who will complain about not having anything to do from a lack of new content. I can find things to do, there is plenty of content. I just find that hard to believe for the most that there's nothing to do in game or that there's nothing else to do between long updates. Assuming I'm or anyone is going to devote all free time to do all that or more in game means you probably need a break more than I do.

I personally don't think it's fair for SE to make a "theme park" MMO (which has been described to me as something that's easy and anyone can pick up) and charge for it. If SE wants to make a game you pay for, they better keep you busy and coming back for more. 2 months out of 3 (between patches) is spent waiting for the next round of content to come out. I KNOW Yoshi P said he wants this game to be easily accessible and if people are bored, they should play something else but some people actually want to spend time in an MMO and SE doesn't make content for those people. Take my money for 3 months and leave me bored after 1. Idk, seems sketch.

Don't worry. All of the people who just can't stand the thought of the extremely hardworking development team, who sacrifice their lives, and time they could spend with friends and family, or enjoying life in general, but instead sacrifice their time to develop more content for us, would respond with very similar complaints if there were an extremely deadly earthquake/tsunami scenario which obliterated Japan and killed millions of people. They would be here, on the forums, Q.Q'ing about how they aren't going to get any new content and stating that the dev team should have prepared and set up another HQ office, avoided being caught in a natural disaster, and have preplanned to be in a safe location so they could continue to sacrifice their lives to develop new content for a game that these butt hurt individuals obviously care so much about, but have decided to post here how they are so utterly disappointed and angry that they have to wait an additional month, or a little more, to get new content.

It's sickening. It really truly is. Be thankful we have a dev team that are so dedicated and hardworking that they give us updates with new content on a pretty consistent 3 month basis. Enjoy all that great gear you worked so hard to get and don't worry so much about how you can quickly replace it with something better. Go enjoy life. Spend time with friends and family. Enjoy other games, other hobbies. Do something you enjoy while you wait for 3.1. Most importantly, please respect the fact that the dev team are human too, and after all that they given us, after all the sacrifices that they've made to get us to where we are now, after all the time in their lives that they didn't get to use to spend with their loved ones because they were working extremely long shifts busting their asses to please a bunch of gamers, please show some respect for these guys rather than thinking of all the mean things you can think of to say about how you're so upset that as a company they decided to allow their employees to take a vacation which is going to delay a content patch by an insignificant amount of time. One month. Or was it one and a half? Either way. That's not that long. You'll be ok. There are other things to do with your time. Pick out one or more of those things and occupy yourself until 3.1.

Also, to all the people who say, "If my company did this everyone would be fired!!!!" Guess what? It's not your company. The dev team will be back in full force when they get back from vacation. The world will continue to rotate on it's axis and revolve around the sun. If any of the people here who have posted such negativity decide to quit and never come back. Well best of luck to you in your future endeavors. I'm sure some people will miss you, but the choice is yours to make. Honestly, your best bet may just be to take a break. Take all the time you need. Come back when there is a wealth of content for you to enjoy. Oh, and please, chill out. A lot of us will really enjoy not having our gear, or our content become irrelevant for a little longer. A lot of us need time to catch up. A lot of us don't have hours upon hours to play every single day and could really use, and enjoy, the extra time to enjoy the game and level other jobs, or gear our mains. I for one am happy to have more time before the next patch. I'm one of those who don't get to play as often as I would like and I have fallen behind and do need to catch up. However, even if I was capped on everything with nothing at all left to do, out of respect for the dev team, and appreciation for the game, and world, that they have allowed me the opportunity to enjoy, I would be happy for them, and hope that they thoroughly enjoy their vacation. Who knows when they'll get another one?

No one is saying people don't enjoy life. We absolutely do. I guarantee you 95% of people's frustration comes from a place of passion. We all LOVE this game but we're also being critical of it cause it doesn't offer enough to do to call enjoyable content. Final Fantasy XIV is a beautiful game and I want to support it 100% but everytime I try to log on and play, there's nothing to do. Like with all things not worth your time, you leave it aside. And I feel like this game is best left like that. If you KNOW you're gonna be bored with it months down the line at the next patch, just... stop.

[midnitdragoon]

Meh, update seems ok. Imma cancel and go back to final fantasy 11

[Devils_Lawyer]

I am amazed how something as tiny as a month or two delay on a patch could cause such chaos on the forum.

Do people really have nothing else to do then to play ARR (or complain they dont have anything to do in it).
