If You Could Change FFXI

im just tired of tracking who gets what tbh lol

Mule's with no melee jobs always gets the mail/neck/masks good non tradeable crap :( grats me Iron ore!

ill see your iron ore and raise you the 27 adaman ores i got while not getting my adamantoise egg lol

i would not have released shadow lord gear and just 3 months later abyssea.

Also i would make missions somewhat mandatory in order to unlock abyssea, and change the battle system to force people to cooperate more (sc/mb). some jobs have just disappeared.

I'd give Tarus knees.

please no taru flee is one of the funniest things ive ever seen

XD ok ok!

I would:
Drop ps2 support.

Delete abyssea and make any mention of it punishable by deletion.

Add the far east, southern mithra homeland, northern gigas homeland and any other regions i might be missing.

Add challanging endgame for these areas similar to dynamis, limbus, einherjar etc etc.

Oh and new missions for these regions

Fix the macros bar so it respond in realtime (on PC). When you push CTRL or ALT macro bar randomly show up with a delay also affecting activation trigger of the macro if keys not holded long enough. That make poor gameplay sometime.

I would also remove gear swap during fight. Only weapons and ammo should be swappable at the expense of TP. Just equip at best your class for the fight rather than trying to change your boots just before swiging a weaponskill !

This.

2nd'd. Was so disappointing when I saw the bad looking model in FFXI. Would love to be 10,000 Needled by that XD

Gear Swapping allowed in PvP, and as much as I don't like Windower, add Party TP and Alliance MP/TP and bring the old Dynamis back, so lame now.


....Whats so bad about gear swapping? Its essential :x

Needs maor dead or alive breast physics <,<

It seems like normal routine on this site to mention boobs at least once a day.

All of this.

Honestly... if this new content isn't worthwhile and it becomes stale as hell (like this new stuff did).. i can't see this game going much longer.

The reason it went on at all was because of Abyssea.

If Abyssea hadn't been implemented the game would already be dead.

Well, this person is brain dead but we can keep them alive on a machine. They are still alive.

>.>

Change reward system on voidwatch ..way too random and unfair not balanced at all like SE seems to claim is their start line...and yeah add places and npcs that are mentioned through all storylines

Make macros have 20 lines, then consolidate the "Equipment Change" notification down to 1 line for all gear changed at once, or make it specifically filter-able.

pfft abyssea was the first time SE started adding "wow" gear in stats before that it was lvl75 body piece w/ +1dex +1chr for melees :P lol the best of the best in equipment comes from abyssea ^^ SE just needs to add more stuff where we can put all that gear to test voidwatch a good start

I would agree fully. A friend and I started the game from fresh characters after 2 years of not playing. If abyssea hadn't been implemented shortly after us reaching 75, we probably would have quit. It gave an edge to newer players I feel.

The game is well and truly alive.

Abyssea insured that. It's still the primary event, no matter how much people try to harp on about VW.

Abyssea is good and all to get the stuff you want easily and within a reasonable amount of time, but the game needs more. Getting things fast is okay, but do it too fast and soon you'll need something new.

Abyssea was great for players coming back, it's easy to integrate into Abyssea without having to do a load of legwork. It's just "Play and have fun" instead of "Prepare for weeks, have fun in one event every 3 days"

They went with a WoW route and it worked great.

That's racist.

Shop is closed. Its the shops Holiday.
/waits an hour
then...
Shop is still closed. opens at 8am
/waits 5 more minutes then falls asleep

I would convert the coliseum in WG into a 4 part area.

Section 1: 1st come 1st served open area PvP 36 maximum. Matches beginning every 30 mins. Uncapped.

Section 2: 1 vs 1. Matches beginning every 10 mins. Uncapped.

Section 3: 3 vs 3. Matches beginning every 15 mins. Uncapped.

Section 4: 6 vs 6 Matches beginning every 15 mins. Uncapped.

Points earned by performance would be accrued similar to Conquest, Imperial standing etc. They could be used to purchase town gear, furnishings, event costumes, and fireworks etc. obtainable only through this event.

Would offer vets some challenge a computer generated opponent never will, and new players could come to watch, and socialize while gaining knowledge of different job strategies. Let's face it people burn up their jobs nowadays, and are thrust into events with little knowledge of their jobs, or how to gear them.

This area would offer a chance to see both in action while providing a social hub, and when they felt ready to join in they're welcome.

Evil Laughter.... used to do it every now and again.
