Gameplay Requests/Ideas

[Pooka218]

Please change quest rules I know this is an MMO but storyline related quests should not force you to do quests with groups of people if you do not want to. Make the group thing something voluntary and not forced. Its not always easy to find a group and sometimes you get bad groups or people who aren't very nice. The decision to join others should be left up to me and not be required otherwise I cannot progress in the story. Also it would be nice to get more storage space.

Oh please, dear sweet Lord Baby JEEBUS CHRIST ON A CRACKER, the above. I had two players drop out of an instanced raid and couldn't finish it because two of us were not enough to win through. That was this morning, and I'm still waiting for people to come along so I can do this part of the main storyline. If we must work some quests in parties, at least make it possible to use NPCs if no one is around so we can get on with the quest.

To Yoshida-dono and the Dev Team,

In resonating others' suggestions about booting the afkers, please consider taking a step further and implementing the following command:

/report [type] [name]

• AFK
• RMT
• BULLY

A command is ok, but really, what I'd want is that right-clicking on a name in chat gives you additional menu entries:

• Add to Blacklist
• Report Harassment
• Report Gold Seller

The first one would be equivalent to /blacklist add (including a prompt). The last two equivalent to going through the support desk, except that it does not pass through an extra UI (seriously, S/E, you can prefill Server Name, Area Name and Timestamp). Both Report options also imply an blacklisting (without prompt).

This is how LOTRO does it, and it makes for easy fixes when there is a chat-related problem.

I updated the main post with the ideas you guys had. I also formed all of them into a Google Docs survey form, so we can all vote, so that a few months later, we can provide the Statistics to SE on what we (the customers) truly want. Everyone, lets start voting. I'll keep the list updated, just send me over the ideas, and I'll get them added to the list. Lets make sure they are valid requests though, so that the list doesn't get huge to the point that no one wants to fill it out.

Okok, I got some suggestions to add to the top post me and friends noticed...

1: Autosort by container/complete, prolly been brought up a lot, it's god annoying
2: Allow us to select what quests to display -_- pretty sure beta had that option, but it got removed...
3: Allow for friend list to extend to other servers and on that...
3.5: Once above been added, allow for cross server groups to be capable of forming for duties- I met some nice people cross server I'd like to keep grouping with
4: Once it has been fixed, allow for all servers to hit up Duty Finder again, especially if above gets added. It'd be a real let down to find out your friends are in a server that is outside your cross server bracket for grouping

5: Right click on name for black list... It's god annoying to copy paste...
6: I don't know why it was removed, but it was a LOT nicer to be able to type /search <whatever> to find things... bit of a pain in the ass to do it the long way
7: I might be overlooking things, but a level sync option would be nice outside of fates/dungeons. I like grouping with friends to help but it sucks when I kill his xp and have nothign his level range

Be able to choose what clothes your retainers wear, I don't like that my retainer looks so feminine in his outfit D:

Hi,
well i wanted to post my own post, but it would be useless (and not smart) to open 10 similar topic.
Have a nice day.

part 1
few suggestions;
• Give the possibility that the "TAB" work from closer to the further
from left to right => useless and confusing, in FATE I often see someone (when it's not me) agro a random mob or simply have as target a mob who is 50 meter away from me
• Grant a free transfer to another server;
well with all you restriction some friends was forced to start to play to a another server, but so far SE provided a good feedback so I expect that from SE ^^
• Possibility to chose the quantity when we craft something,
to level up, we sometime do X time the same thing or when it's a basic element for other craft e may need it X time, why not make it easier and avoid some useless click ^^
• Automatic logout after 30 min of inactivity
well I guess you are working on it, since it make sense and it would reduce some of current issue

Part 2
• the possibility to kick someone from a group under some condition
honestly sometime it's a must have ^^
• Language oriented server:
the general chan is sometime a intensive poly language cursus (ENG, FR,GER,ITA,POL,....) make the chan confusing
• Euro Datacenter
reduce some lag issue
• Possibility to report a player/bot
Would be easier for SE spot gils seller
• When we use the chocobo taxi or either in a city to move from X to a X instead of having a list of destination show it on the map
don't want memorize all earozea by heart
• Find a way to change the skin of a stuf
well I would be a bit sad if I see ten white Mage with the same outfit as me when I'm lev 50

Not really a gameplay idea, but certainly related. Um... a strategy guide would be nice.
