2.0 Teleportation and you!

[Arlene]

...And to me, being able to be teleported somewhere is just about perfect. Makes no sense having to hoof somewhere before able to be teleported, being that it is..being teleported? Shortcuts for all!

I don't want extra hassle of doing unlock quests either. *shudder*

[Laughlyn]

I personally don't think it should be teleportation. It should be similar to a flight path in WoW.....

i just stopped here & vommited. (sorry)

nice oppinion, now here's mine...

Hellz no, its should be White Mage only Teleportations like FFXI nothing else.
or just give a Time Mage that option...or.... take the damn Train.

...or.... take the damn Train.

I apologize for being purposely contrary but as someone who doesn't really like many things about WoW myself.... You do realize that flight paths are just aerial trains right?

Think of those unlock quests (for Return/Teleport) as a tutorial, or perhaps a huge sign pointing THIS SYSTEM EXISTS so it does not ends up like a friend of mine, who was all angry for having to run all the way to a far away aetheryte and had no idea the teleport system existed.

^^; I-I have a confession to make: I have a dislike of unlock quests which is a personal preference and I'm of course free to... try not to do them. Eep, good luck, me, with that one. With this game. Ahahahaa....

I guess I just don't like them as a game mechanic. I can't seem to trace it to back to anything which might help me to make some actual sense of this.

But I'm afraid I'm not going to be very overjoyed about them for that reason.

Maybe tutorial things could be somehow optional. With some rewards that odd people like me would manage without... which means rewards wouldn't be teleport key items or similar. *sigh* No, I don't know what I'm going on about.

In the end I'm just allergic to the idea of losing my teleport. Nooooooooooo don't change these things!

I always like having to do quests to unlock things, so I'm all for a quest to unlock the ability to teleport myself and others. I would still want to have the option to teleport along with somebody else that's already done the quest, even (no, especially) if I haven't but still need to get to an event. Teleport nodes for specific events could be added, and, if so, should be unrestricted.

As for travel, I'd go with having to go straight to the node to do any teleporting (other than Return). There just shouldn't be a straight-up teleport command in the menu. Taking a train out to the area to find the node is great, as is running back from a quest to activate an aetheryte nearby to get back to town to buy new gear. Going from town to town, or town to middle of nowhere should only be possible from aetheryte nodes.

Return is a different beast because it's also tied to being raised, and it would be good to still have a "get back to town from the middle of nowhere" option, particularly when you find yourself surrounded by high-level mobs because you wandered into the wrong part of the zone.

I think teleport is fine the way it is. adding more quests than the dev said for teleport-come 2.0, will just make it a drag. I'm all for having to walk there first though. right now being able to get teleported to a camp you haven't been to is quite silly. but aside from that addition and the 2 quests the dev mentioned, teleport should stay the way it is.

It's a *tutorial quest*. If they even make current players do it at all, it's probably going to take like 2 minutes of your time.

Never!
all though, we already getting new flight-paths via Airships.

Remove teleport, it ruins the atmosphere of the game and brings it down to WoW-like quest-rushing.

If we had more than 5 areas I'd like to see certain telepoints, but like this..... maybe one in Coerthas? That's it.



I miss the travelling.... has anyone ever used the ship in the past 6 months?
