Seriously give the game time?

[Greencactaur]

Guys give the game time? No thats bs at this point of time to be honest. The games been out for almost an entire year and it has yet to have any end game content. How can you say things like give it more time when we've yet to see the things thats needed?

Make instance'd pve dungeons. For every level and then have heroic level 50 instances.

Add more notorious monsters that drop gear as well as a type of currency like Plaques of achievement for example.

Stop reskinning mobs and thinking by making it bigger its okay. Yes wow does this, but xiv has only 5 unique looking mobs which they've just reskinned

Add armor thats not reskinned. Same thing you did with the mobs. All armor is the same just recolored or something.

Don't add more classes yet. First fix the main issues once you do so add new classes later.

If you really must add PVP which at this point of time not many people care about since ff is typically a PVE game add battlegrounds and arena. Don't rush it either and take your time, but don't take a year to add one UI change like you typically do.

Nerf graphics? You guys pissed off atleast 50% of the people who wanted to play xiv because the graphics are so intense. Even though the game's shiny its hideously looking. Yes look at the water graphics, look at the nature, look at the copy pasted terrain. Now lets look at WoW, Rift, and Aion. All decent graphical games, but they're all more beautiful then xiv due to there terrain.

Add achievements a small thing, but every small thing matters in an mmo.

Tittles small thing once again.

Add Auction house and mail box.

Now don't listen to the people who say this game is fine the way it is and just needs endgame. These people are people who are idiots in real life and have mental issues and thinks SE cares for there customer base when everyone obviously knows SE could give a damn about there customer base.

Add chocobos its been almost a year and we still have yet to see any. Give it a .dot hack type of mount system where you start with an egg and you can feed the pet and it eventually grows up to be a mount.

My best advice to give SE at this point of time would be to completely scratch the game though and have yoshi go play rift hit cap try endgame and do the same with aion and wow. Afterwards take the things from there and notice how 99% of gamers could give a damn about graphics. Make a game that looks like aion, but has a nice fluid combat system. Afterwards do all the things I said above.

Add costumes that cover over gear that drop from bosses or are given from quests.

Add more cities. 6 places does not make a world nor does 9 nor does 12. Have atleast 20 different areas to go to.

Make it possible to solo, BUT at the same time group to level up so players have the choice.

Stop taking 3 weeks to fix a small UI change or something otherwise you won't get any progress done.

Okay thanks for reading I know many people will troll me saying xiv is fine and all, but those guys are the real trolls because they want xiv to fail where as I want it to be the best it can be.

Btw if theres spelling errors I don't really care.

Oh another thing~ stop giving us lore bs we don't care about actually add the content we don't care about something we know isn't going to happen. You're not getting our hopes up we can see right through your lets pretend we'll make changes when we really won't.

Yea I'm enjoying the lore. And this game is still free so its not really released yet.

my leet senses detect a troll, and a brain-damaged one at that. It isn't possible to create an immersive game world without lore, the game hasn't been out for a year, there are achievments in the game, and if you ever bothered to check your profile's history, you'd know this. Your "best advice" to the devs is complete and total garbage, FFXIV is not Rift, Aion or WoW, it is not trying to be, for which I am quite thankful. (originality will never die!) AH is no longer needed, mail box is a luxery, though will probably be implented, UI adjustments take time to do, as they must not interfere w other aspects of the UI. If they gave every single weapon, armor, and accessory thier own unique look, the memory requirements would be large enough that you would be screaming about that in your rant. It is already possible to solo and form parties, and is ultimately the player's choice. They will add new areas in time (I've already found at least one zone for a future area.) Graphics? again, FFXIV, not Rift, Aion, or WoW. You don't want xiv to fail? Sounds more like you want the game to be converted into WoW2, which is certainly a failure.

If you are seriously that butthurt about playing this game, the only suggestion I can make to you is to go back to WoW, or one of it's clones, as you will never be satisfied with this game, it's content, or community.

The lore is what makes Final Fantasy a Final Fantasy game. Its easier to follow the lore in offline Final Fantasy games because the story pushes it on you. In FFXIV, its your choice to play through the story or not. In WoW, of course you're not going to sit there and read every quest, so i can see where you're anti-lore attitude comes from.

Speak for yourself, I like the lore.

Content takes time to create, something you clearly know nothing about. If you don't like the game then go find a game you actually do like, that's honestly more constructive than your entire post.

They had 5 years to come up with content. How much time do they need?

it took 5years to make crystal tools they only start making it few month before E3 when they display FFXIV. gamescom they did not even have a real alpha version. Sure in 5years there coming up with story,pictrue and see how everything works but making the game in a computer? not that long ago,

Oh, so they were to busy too write up the story elements and such or give the game a true general direction instead of the hodgepodge we have now.

Give me a break. I love how people try and justify the BS that is this games release and the slow torturous death its going through. Albeit I do not share the exact sentiments the OP he has ultimately he is correct. The game will never recover at this rate to the general populace but only for the drones that that still sport their rose tinted glasses frequenting these boards.

Sorry - I'm a realist. I want the game to succeed and one of the ways to do that is for reminders to crop up now and again to remind people their asses are to the fire. This multi-million dollar titanic is heading for the icebergs in the shape of other MMOs coming out relatively soon.

If you, or the OP, were truly realists then you would realize that it takes time to get this work done. Yeah, yeah, insert 5 years of development and 7 months of the game being live rhetoric here. Yes, we've heard it all. The REALITY of the matter is that the new Dev Team has been striving for only 4 months on the game. That includes the time it takes to redesign the very systems the game was built on, including the Battle System, the Crafting System, the in-game AND end game content, and even the job system. They are basically pumping out the game AS THEY RE-DESIGN IT. That is real.

Posts like this don't "remind people their asses are to the fire." Believe me, the shareholders or the Companies board are doing that. SE isn't making ANY money on this game currently. They know this. All posts like this do is give an undeserved FU to the current Dev team while the OP flames the small community that is sticking it out to see what happens.
