Please Do Something with Gold Saucer!

[Youkulm]

I'm hoping SE changes their mind about the Makai sets being added to the Gold Saucer being non-dyable. I'm sure people will yell that they should be PvP-exclusive, but after sitting in the Frontlines Roulette for two and a half hours I gave up. *shrugs*

This is off topic but... 2 hours? You're on Sarg. You're q should be 5 minutes tops. Are you q'ing for shatter or something else ( level 50 perhaps? lol! ) That may be your problem. Even without the Freelancer option ticked in the menu the q times are incredibly fast now... Class and GC don't even matter. You're doin' it wrong whatever it is you're doing. Were on the same data center and even in the early morning when less people are playing I dont wait longer than 10 minutes.

Farming wolf marks is stupid easy. There is no reason to put the dyeable set in the Gold Saucer haha.

But on topic.

Yes please put more UNIQUE rewards into the gold saucer SE. Maybe some new mini games.. something... I want reasons to play in the gold saucer that don't involve the tire fire that is LoV

Something I don't really think anyone asked for.

Oh, people did ask for pet battles! But people thought along the lines of pokémon, not along the lines of RTS.

Personally, I only like the GATEs in the gold saucer myself. Chocobo racing seemed nice at first and reminded me a bit of Mario Kart, except in super clunky and with a breeding grind attached >.>

Yes, it was for lvl 50 Frontlines Roulette. I don't see what is so horribly wrong with that. I didn't see a notice that PvP was only for lvl 60s. But thank you for being rude about it.

Not being rude just trying to figure out why your q time is allegedy so long. Aaaaaaand there is the problem.

Just go for level 60 and it will pop in no time. If you're going to level 50 because of the mount achievement the level 60 also counts towards it.

There is no reason to put the dyeable gear in GS because people can't be bothered to play Frontlines or Feast. I do believe SE is trying to encourage more people into PVP at the moment. It took less time for me to get 4 full sets of gear than it did to get all my wins for the Garo mounts. Easy Peasy.

If PVP isn't for you, then I guess the gear isn't either. There is exclusive rewards for various content all over the game. This is no exception.

Adding the Makai gear sets to Gold Saucer is a clear example of them adding random content to an area that doesn't need it and makes no sense to be seen in-game wise. If those sets were added to something else like Khloe's wonderful tails or even PoTD that'd make more sense.

Oh, and also not just for the Makai gear but for glamour gear as well, stop adding undyable versions of gear with a dyable version available! That's just a waste of time and makes no sense, or at least to me it doesn't! Sure, the idea seems solid at first since most people before couldn't afford to buy most glamour gear when they first came out but now it's just silly wasted data floating around the game. The same goes for special glamour sets we pay for through Mog Station, make that glamourable, too, we pay 10 to 18 dollars for that stuff, stop being cheap!

Also, adding updated minigames from the Gold Saucer in Final Fantasy VII would be really great and they could even add certain character gear from that and other past FF games as prizes! I would love be able to get my hands on Cloud's Buster Sword or or Noctis' Royal Raiments as glamour gear! I had forgotten about the one or two new items they had add recently, but it's only a few; like one or two items added every, every so often is going to really get people back into playing Gold Saucer's minigames which are, as myself and many other people have said before, stale!

And sure the Orchestration prizes are kind of nice, but not really something I'd call "exciting enough" to make someone want to run. and play Gold Saucer. If Orchestration could be played anywhere you wanted through a special Linkpearl, then I'd actually feel those prizes would actually be worth getting. But all this is just my opinion. If Orchestration sheets were made travel playable, they could even add past Final Fantasy music sheets to the game and stick them in Gold Saucer. I would love to be able to get my hands on all of FFXIII in game if this happened!

So true.

I can't agree more with most of the comments. Furthermore, I'd add that in addition to increasing the number of GATEs, they need to increase the consistency of them. I would like to see at least 1 GATE active at all times as I miss them near constantly and don't like waiting for the appointed time in a zone that's supposed to be a time killer.

Blitzball, hopefully coming soon. And underwater chocobo races too.

[Niwashi]

Well, given that the last major feature added, Lords of Verminion, was such a flop, that may have put a damper on their desire to do more major additions like that. (And with how complex it is, it clearly took a lot of time and effort to develop that thing.)

I do kind of like the logging mini-game they put in at the same time. And Triple Triad can still be fun from time to time. They've done some updates on that. And there are new rewards coming out fairly regularly.

It's just nothing really big since the LoV update. As others have mentioned, maybe blitzball will be the occasion for their next big Gold Saucer attraction.

I want the same mobility on my race chocobo as I have on my mount chocobo. The on rails low response thing we have now reminds me of those mobile racer games that were trending awhile ago (except those were more responsive and had more variety) and not something I'd expect to find in an mmo.
