    targeting broken?

    so i didn't know if i should post this into the game-bug section or the tech-sup so i'll just leave it here.
    feel free to move it to right section.

    currently my targeting seems a lil broken, no matter if i'm on /tmode a or b, whatever option i use i can target EVERYTHING with every target selection.
    like i can target random players with "Enemy" or "Party".
    This wasn't the case tho a few days back, i could only target enemys with "Enemy" or party members with "Party" or "Friendly".
    i'm playing with a xbox 360 wired pad, so i either choose my targets with the right/left buttons (with right/left i can still target according to the target option) or with my select/confirm button (now targets everything, regardless to the target option).

    did anyone else experience the same issue?
    this doesn't happen to friends i play with that use the same gamepads, and like said it used to work for me normally aswell just 1 or 2 days ago.

    any help is appreciated

    No targeting issues here, though last night the graphic switched up on me a few times.
    I was in target mode A, and the graphic changed to Enemy and later on to Friendly, despite actually being in A. It fixed itself after a battle.
    Unless you specifically chose to go to B, chances are it was just a graphic glitch and not a targeting one.

    If i'm in Emeny tageting mode it will still target friendly's. It happens 90% of the time when i'm in a party. The targeting is still broke.

    Same issue here, all i want is "Target All", not the other bullcrap.
    Also using 360 controller to play with, and with same damn issue.

    I suggest an "lock" target mode option in Configuration menu, with optional macro / command for those who want that option.

    I only play with a controller. I never change modes. After about an hour of leves, I suddenly lose the ability to toggle between enemy targets... Always after about an hour, no sooner or later.

    Weird, 360 gamepad user here. For me in mode a, left/right targets proper mode, confirm selects all. It took a bit of getting used to but I can target as needed and switch modes in an instant.

    I love the current Type A when using it with a game pad.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    left/right targeting works properly, but what i'm annoyed with is that i can target everything with select/confirm.
    i'm 100% sure that wasn't the case a few days ago.

    You sure that's not because of the changes in 1.17a? They changed it so if you hold the auto-run button and various other things (accept button, decline button etc) you can switch to friendly/enemy/party etc. It's pretty much perfect targetting using it. When out fighting stuff I switch to enemy with target mode A, so up/down cycles party members and left/right targets enemies. I just switch back to All in cities etc.
