Thread: What I would like to see in 5.0

I agree with all those UI changes. I'd also like to see the mount and minion tab updated, a far more user-friendly retainer and MB interface, the ability to do more things while mounted or having a window/npc open, as well as a "you already own this item" line on mounts/music/minions and cards you've already learned. Probably a good few more to add too.

What baffles me is when someone posts suggestions like these and people instantly hop in with "won't happen" and "unnecessary, don't need it". If I was a developer and saw feedback like that, of course I wouldn't think of bothering to make UI updates any sort of priority. Part of the community are experts at shooting themselves in the foot. Meanwhile new players are joining the game and getting a terrible first impression from how outdated so many elements are. I know I did when I started playing.

the people saying those things - they've followed the game for years and have listened to how the devs answer questions like this from Q&A's in different events. many of these things have been asked in one form or another already. we know the answers and the answer is that it's not possible with how the game is coded currently. simple as that.

I really hope 5.0 increases the item limit in large houses because 400 isn't enough. I've actually had to wall off a large room because the item limit prevents me from turning it into anything.

- Send tells to people in/out of dungeons (aka Another World)
- A way to link class/job abilities to chat.
- A way to link achievements to chat.
- A way to link quest to chat.
- Link more than 1 item to the same chat line at a time.
- For Beast Tribe vendors, have them show everything they sell but don't allow buying of items if reputation hasn't been reached yet. This would allow people to see what they can buy later on once they reached reputation.
- (CRAFTING) Overall update to the crafting dialog. I would like to see a tree structure view on crafting items. Clicking lumber expands out a tree showing what's needed to make that lumber and so on. A system similar to garlandtools.org would even be nice. (Ex: https://www.garlandtools.org/db/#item/22538)
- (CRAFTING) Clicking on the "NQ" or "HQ" above the materials selection will instantly select all those items.

Improved/Fixed items:
- Macros fixed so they aren't so buggy. The mouse over feature for one doesn't always work. I would say 1/10 times it will cast on me and not the person my mouse point is hovering over in the party list.

In Game improvements:
- ALLOW SENDING MAIL TO FC MEMBERS without adding them to your friends list!!!! I can't believe this isn't already an option.

YES PLEASE. 14 really should be brought up to the standards of the late 90's.

- Place important NPC on a raised platform that players can't get on. Examples are the NPC you talk to to enter Eureka and Drake in Pyros. People pile up on these NPC to the point you can't even see or click on them.
- In large populated areas like cities, add a client side option to hide users that are AFK. This would not hide FC and people on your friends list though.
- REPORTING RMT should add the person to a temporary ignore list that gets cleared upon logging out.

General QoL Improvements:
- Updated Launcher! It's time to bring the launched up to current times. Every game I play has a far superior launcher. The primary feature I would like to see is one where I don't have to enter my password and one time pass every single time. Allow it to remember me!

I wouldnt say no.

Auto-translate doesnt actually have a majority of those things in it (I checked with my open quests, none are there, and they're all repeatable daily/weekly ones).

The functionality to see the tooltips in a chat link (tooltips for every item and abilities exist in game on hover already) should be there, and should reflect the ACTUAL stats of the items.

Otherwise you're asking for them to add achievements and quests to a pop up display menu, which currently doesnt even exist and would likely take up a lot of resources as there are ... insane amounts of quests, and quite a bit of achievements as well.

These link just text. I want to be able to mouse over the ability/achievement/quest and see a tooltip for that item. You know, just how you link items.

I know about this. I don't want to lower the quality of EVERYTHING in EVERY ZONE. I want to be rid of all the people that afk around NPC's like the Eureka NPC for example.

Like to see no scion's in it at all and not have it where forces you play as a npc in a fight. Also like to see hd package added to it for better graphics.

Updated graphics.
