Player search feature update. Supposed to be a joke from SE?!?!?!

Oh one thing I did notice was the lack of the ability to search for a individual person.

edit: forgot lack

I think somebody might be going into the party menu and trying to search....

and not hitting the new Search button in the main menu...

The way anima increases so rapidly now i really think it would be easy to port back from bald knoll and grab some lunch while seeking.

Thats exactly what I was doing, so how do you seek then? I can see where you can click in the new search to add a comment but nothing else?!?!?

I just ran a search on Fabul and turned up 200+ results (capped at 200). One thing of note is that this search is blazing fast. Seems to run a full server search in under a second. Considering how laggy everything else is, I'm not entirely sure how they're doing it. Overall, very satisfied.

Edit: Clicking on your own name (or selecting it with a controller by pressing up) allows you to edit your own settings from the main Search screen.

In the menu, right above party, there's a new tab called 'Search'. Click that, and you have the entire search window at your disposal! It gave me the confuzzles too, but it's cool that we have both systems now... For the whole 2 people who used the old one..

Yup works fine for me, for anyone with half a brain please make sure you are using the search and not the old party search.

Yeah and make sure you're not searching for people with the "seeking" status. A lot of people probably haven't (and will never) change their status.

Seems to be working just fine on Besaid, considering I got my first blind party invite tonight (I wasn't seeking party).

^ I do wish this was part of the interface.

I did a search in Bloodshore randomly getting NPC's and found like 200 people.

but what I find most funny? It still takes about 20 clicks and 3 windows just to seek. Hilarious
