SE, the dev team needs some more resources.

[BigTough]

Once a dev team has to start weighing out options for what implementations/additions is top priority for the game and which is on hold or scrapped altogether, especially when it comes to content that should be in the game without question, it's time for more resources on the dev team. I'll give only a few of examples, 1. primal weapons for the new jobs, Yoshi said they just couldn't find the time to do it nor can they in the foreseeable future, 2. gear not properly fitting the new races, not enough time, not enough resources, 3. Dev team is pushing beyond the limit as it is to get the content out that they have already, and they have to give up on certain continuing content that was from 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0. It's got to be crushing and even frustrating for them as it is for some of us.

One can't deny the possibility of the QoL improvements we could see with that extra helping hand on board. I wouldn't want the dev team cutting anything else out to prioritize one thing over the other anymore either (content as a referred to above) aside from the obviously new ideas/concepts etc that we never hear of or know about.

You can really feel the reality of falling behind setting in. Even if it's in small doses.

SE, please give the team a little extra, pls. I hope it's within financial limits to consider it. I think everyone deserves it, for loyalty and hard work. Anyways, Thank you.

Seems you do not know what game development entails. The situation you describe is how games are made. You think they have unlimited time and money? Or that they keep a high number of subs constantly? Dev time and resources are divided by how much money they are bringing in. This is why in older/less successful MMO's you see skeleton crews working on updates.

throwing all the money and or ppl at a problem is not the solution to fix problems. there are other underlying issues at stake usually. do you know how to run a gaming business? no. stop armchair developing.

Lol, wtf is that thing!? Omg, I can't even begin to understand how they even missed that! XD

That poor Viera in there is just begging someone to put it out of its misery, poor thing fused to the armor like that... :'3

But yeah, game needs more resources and manpower. Tired of job classes getting undercut and shafted for new ones and careless decisions being made on the fly due to popularity or supposed popularity by the community.

We don't need another Eureka, Yoshida. We need issues in the game CURRENTLY that need fixing. Not another half thought through gimmick to get people to keep subscribing to your game. I personally liked some of Eureka's bits but a blind man can tell what their REAL intentions were creating it for. :/

Most of the money XIV pulls in doesn't get put back into XIV, but instead is used for Square's other projects. Combine that with what are seemingly pretty strict deadlines(Yoshida said around E3 that work on 6.X was going to start this month), and you have a lot of corner cutting.

Wow! That looks amazing! If only they could adapt that for all helmets in the game, viera could be rocking helmets RIGHT NOW!
