How is everyone feeling now the servers are back up?

[AngryNixon]

Yea really clever, so basically in a few months when everyone has left "to go play WoW" you will be the only person left.

Telling people to leave is a bit counter productive don't ya think ?

If Evangela is the only person left I should get to know them since I'll be here too once all those people go back to WoW.

Hi Evangela, How's it going?

[Wevlum]

People have a strange idea of trolling lately it seems, but that aside... Yes, I looked forward to the servers coming back and while I'm glad they are back, I haven't been playing much. I suppose at this point people may be readying the 'go back to WoW' button. I've never played WoW. I played FFXI for a few years and then moved to FFXIV.

Anyway, I too like many other people are sitting waiting for the next letters from Yoshi-P and I'm willing to wait as long as this game is free to play. The main reason for my lack of enthusiasm is the combat system and class system; so I'm looking forward to details of the planned 're-haul' of these systems and I'm hoping (really really really hoping) that they inject some more fun into the game.

The world is beautiful but the game-play is below average.

You can do it Yoshi-P! ;_;

their Patch 4.1 than SE has done since release. =/

I think this is something the player base needs to focus on more and more. To me, the worst thing about this game isn't the lack of content, and it isn't how dull and bland everything seems to be when I try to force myself to do something in game. It is the fact that barely anything has changed.

Yes, there are some minor fixes in terms of UI and latency issues, but that is something that should be completely expected and FINISHED within 2 months.. at the latest. It has been a long time since the release of this game, and the fact that they are just now doing things that were promised sooo long ago.. I am not impressed.

I think the game has flaws in it's design, and I also believe (and hope) that the design team itself can recognize that. They need to change the class systems, battles systems, market systems, and heavily edit how the player interacts with quests and story line.

there are good things about this game!!! namely, its name! This is an FF title, so I am hoping "being on track", whenever that should happen, is going to mean the game makes me feel like I am in an FF world. Currently it does not do that. Other stuff that makes me feel attached to XIV is the art and style of armor/environment. Even though the armor pieces themselves are sometimes WAY overused, and even other times simply a little too boring or dull, I think that FF online has always had remarkable taste in the way they made items and armor look. Great vision, kept it extremely classy, bravo and thank you for that.

But it is March 2011.. no It's almost April!!! Where the hell are the big changes that everyone was expecting????? I thought the NOVEMBER update was supposed to address this stuff... WHAT WERE YOU GUYS DOING IN THE FIRST 5 MONTHS ???

You can argue that hey... its a new team man, give them some time. You can argue that hey.. natural disaster, give them some time. But eventually, there will not be any time. If summer hits, and this game hasn't made a huge change I really don't think that their declining population growth rate will change either. At least not for the better. More and more people will leave because this game has been neglected by it's own creator. Yet here we all are on the forums, begging them to do SOMETHING.

when will that something come? after 5 more months of UI fixes? give me a break.

Short: Feeling GREAT about getting to play again. Guilty about what SE exchanged to make it happen.

Long: It was so long, I didn't think anyone would read the short if I posted it.

Still needs work , but I knew that already . They will be able to or won't be able to fix it , so I'll wait and see before going back to a game that may have a lot to do , but the people tend to suck . The people here are great , they care about what is or is'nt happenning with the game they play and they care about the type of people they play with . So yeah I am glad the servers are up cause you are some of the best people out there and I am glad to meet you

[SHJcules]

all good on my side!

I'm glad it's back. I did one local leve and then ran to Bloodshore. I just get relaxed by running around La Noscea. I've been busy so I haven't been back since then, but still looking forward to playing.

[DNO]

i didnt know how much i missed it. Im glad its back and hope it doesnt have to go down again.

But of course if it does go down ill understand.

[TonyMontana]

Lindblum seems less populated in the Limsa areas(where I enjoy playing) than before. I hope they can turn this game around and bring some players to it.
