If you could add one thing...

One job ability, one HNM, one system of HNMs, one type of PvP... revamp of the Mog House system, party system, set of armor, ect ect. The only thing that is forbidden is new race or job. Have fun.

Personally, I would like if SE added a Mecernary search NPC system. Maybe a Galka, near the entrance. You sign up for it, costs maybe a Bronze Coin. Your current rank is recorded. You specify which zones you are interested in and/or if you are interested in ranking up. It would be optional to set your 'demand' for Assaults, "Don't bother me if I'm in an experience points party", "Don't bother me if I'm in an LS event"(or whatever SE likes to call LS events). Finally they can list what level ranges they are interested in doing.

Anyone talking to the NPC can do a search. They describe the condition of their search: rank, level range, and/or area. [Examples: Can look for all areas, but of one rank, or one area of one rank, but hopefully at level 40]. It will then give you a list of players who meet these requirements, some of the information above, and all their jobs that meet the level range you listed. It would show if they are in a party or not and their choices for the "demand" option.

A lot of people who want to be higher rank, for storyline or just fun reasons, but can't because people tend to be little cockblockers wanting only to merit and sky/hnm. I really feel for those people, too bad SE doesn't ;o.

It might be a good idea to aim for ideas that'd make the game better and more enjoyable, but I wouldn't want to limit anyone's creativity.

I posted this on KI already. Didn't feel like typing it up.

I would love for it to be that easy to find people for Assault. Everyone in my LS talks about doing them, but that's as far as it ever goes (or the people who are doing them are in a static and have no interest in doing them with anyone else - which is totally fair).

I don't have any fresh ideas right now, but I'll try and think of something.

Mhurron · 11-12-2006, 07:33 PM

Music in every zone. My needs are simple.

And the spell Omega. Make it as flashy and useless as Holy, as long as its flashy. I want it to look like the world is coming to an end when I cast it.

Don't you mean... Ultima?

6 to one, half dozen the other.

Yes I goofed. Hell call it a firework, who cares I just wanted it to look cool.

Pheonix Downs

I remember getting a Revival Root in beta thinking it would Raise a party member. lol We have items that do everything else, why not this?

And no, I'm not asking for R3, but a Phoenix Down in the Dunes would be really nice.

Caspian · 11-12-2006, 08:47 PM

Fish, I like your idea, but why not compatibility on the main continent for ZM's and CoP? I'm just now getting to a level where I can be of significant use in both of these and I still see lots of shouts for them in both Whitegate and Jeuno.

One I've heard brought up before, that they say they can't or won't do, is make it possible to be one job, but lfp on another job. Search comments are great and all, but noone will see them unless your current job already meets the specifications that are wanted.

Finally, has been stated many times and has nothing to do with improving gameplay, make it possible to view ranged weapons when not in use.

Remove the 7 item limit on AH

If I can't go make a sandwich during the casting animation, they haven't done their jobs.

Meteor {Yes, please}

Legal Fish · 11-12-2006, 11:00 PM

Okay a new rule or two. Please don't repeat pretty much the same thing (Meteor/Ultima) without adding anything to it. Also, if you are going to say something like the latter spell, mention what it would do, how you would get it, and ect, since Ultima isn't even in the game atm.

That is all.

Likibiki · 11-13-2006, 01:28 AM

Chocobo Racing.

Oh... wait...

EDIT: I forgot BEER.

Haggai · 11-13-2006, 05:17 AM

I'd love to see elemental clusters stackable. Nothing is worse than being in front of a Dark Elemental with 60/60 inventory. It would help the lack of inventory space issue that we always have.

I don't want the ability to make crystals -> clusters. Just make it so I can go hunting in Xarcabard without going back to town every five minutes. Plus ease crafting pain.

Eauijhkuu · 11-13-2006, 06:13 AM

Racial Traits.
Or Relic Job Traits (Traits gained from wearing certain Items...kinda like FF6/FF9)

Of course...this would cause a slight biased in character selections and (god forbid) job choices.

Shiyume · 11-13-2006, 07:06 AM

What I would most like to see, and I know I'm not the only one, is an (optional, perhaps?) graphics update for the game. I'm talking mostly textures here, because I realize there's only so much they can devote to that over at SE. But especially seeing some of the newer armors and areas, it makes the old ones that we still use a lot kind of a pain to look at XD Now, I fully realize this isn't likely, and PS2 is probably a big issue with it, but I can dream.

What is probably more doable would be some recreational activities. Maybe some mini-games players can do together to just kill time, where job and level wouldn't matter. Also, something cheap for people like me who find themselves hurting for money a lot XD
