Thread: 4.1 Patch Notes (Preliminary)

Among the new hairstyles added is one of the winning styles from the FFXIV Hairstyle Design Contest.

Hmmm

Do they mean this haircut? :


because it's not exactly the same as this one! :


or will there be more haircuts added that weren't shown in patch notes?

I wonder

I hope. I’ll be sort of upset if we only get one hairstyle for this patch.

But Chocobos are the best ground mount in the game :<. Not a big fan of their flying animation, though. Good thing we have the broom.

I don't know what it is, but I really dislike almost every single mount in this game.

Prelim notes are essentially final notes. They just omit crafted items and mats so people don't meta the market board. In the same vein they'll say shit like "this isn't the final build things might change" and then nothing changes from the build they were showing off.

Or how they were reworking Parry. Didn't talk about it and just decided to flat out remove it last minute. So yeah.

No que, no afks, no DC's, no trolls.

For a social game not only a sect of players but devs themselves are anything but social. Outside of oh hi I am new to the administration staff or a PR excuse of look forward to it or this is isn't happening do you ever see any cohesive human communication? NOPE.

And it's damn sad for an MMO.
