Open Letter TO the Producer and Dev Team (Warning it's long ; ;)

[Sugar_Plum]

Seems to have hit all the points that everyone cares about.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I have edited it a bit to make it a bit shorter though not by a great deal ; ; but I'll keep looking at it and cutting out what I can to try and get it down to a more reasonable size ^^

too much text. SE- want to fix this game? want to make money? do this:

PvE (base it on Sky or Sea- pop items for stronger NMs for more pop items for better NMs)
Side content (Hamlet defence, colusseum, arena, chocobo racing, etc)
Chocobos (want them to be different? nitros like FF7 gold saucer or let us get off of them, kill, get back on)

secondary issues- make sure PvE has useful gear, not trash like quests offer
make sure we have NPCs that teleport us to Hamlet Defense and so on
make quests actually different from one another and offer something actually useful, like SP, etc
increase PT bonus SP so people actually PT... people are still soloing doblyns

I read it...but honestly this is a bunch of disparate ideas and suggestions that belong in various threads, rather than being compiled into one huge post. Break up your ideas and post them into distinct threads so people can have a focus for discussion.

Lol just found this which I posted on the day the forums went up and it is strange looking at the complaints back then and seeing how we are moving forward and the direction FFXIV is slowly taking. Some of my complaints have been addressed but some are things we are still complaining about nearly 4 months later that haven't been addressed.

Anyway still thought some of it is still relevant even though it is a mighty big OP ; ;

Pysical Level - Check

Class system - Semi check still not happy with weapon=class ><

Battle system - Check. Close range auto attack long range no auto attack. Also saving skill sets has been addressed.

Party Play - Semi Check. Have to wait and see if they make adjustments to the mobs or just bring in new content to enhance party play. Level sync was addressed as something they would look into.

Class Specific Gear - Getting there.

Behest every 30 mins - Check, but not how I wanted it to work.

Campaign - Maybe with Companies finger crossed.

Chocobo's - MIA ; ;

Player Housing - Hopefully on the way.

NM's - Check, it's a start anyway.

BCNM's - Nope ; ;

Main story Missions - Said that later missions will require a party and DoW/DoM.

Fame - Nope ; ;

Accessory Slots - Looking into it.

Linkshell Management - Server can't handle it at this time wtf lol

Market wards - Further changes coming so hopefully.

Gathering - No plans to change atm ; ;

<call> feature - Nope ; ;

Lag on auto follow and invisible zone line disconnects - Nope

Buff time duration - Nope

Lower level for Raise/Resurrect - Maybe with class changes.

Every Mob with ranged attack - They are looking into it.

SP/EXP Ring - No mention

Hiding Stats - Planning to sort this out.

Repairs - No changes coming mentioned

Inventory space for equipped gear - No mention

Retainers - No changes mentioned

Player search function - Not possible due to server apparently.

Bot's and RMT - Apparently they have the STF in action and people are getting banned.
