Version Update Coming! (05/16/2007)



From new Aht Urhgan missions to teleportation services, as well as several system-related adjustments, the upcoming version update has a little something for everyone!

The following is just a handful of the additions and adjustments planned for the next version update:

New Missions
The next episode in the Treasures of Aht Urhgan mystery is about to unfold. What role does the "mystery knight" play in this epic tale?

Chocobo Raising & Racing
Issues with text display during chocobo races will be addressed. In addition, players will now be able to receive condensed updates from trainers, as well as give multiple servings of feed to their chocobos at once.

Transportation
- Aht Urhgan
New NPCs have been stationed in Bastok, San d'Oria, and Windurst offering teleportation to Aht Urhgan Whitegate. A small fee is planned for the service.

- Choco-gals
Choco-gals will now offer chocobo rentals from the teleport crystals in the Eastern Altepa desert and the Yhoator Jungle, as well as from the leypoint in the Wajaom Woodlands

- Outpost Teleportation
The level restriction on players allowed to use the outpost teleportation services located in Bastok, Windurst, and San d'Oria will be lowered. In conjunction with this change, a fee adjustment is also being considered.

You mean.... I can finally use OP Teleports for the most common purpose? XP Party?

Multi-feeding... How convenient.

No more 20 minute ferry ride when you don't have your Oldy up and accidentally switch your hp?

I like that teleport to the Whitegate from Windurst. HP and Residence back in Port Windurst, its easier to get to the important parts of the world now.

Transportation just got 1000 times easier.

Yay!

If only this came a week earlier when I was running around on ZM5...this would have saved so much time ><

Moved to Main Page News. Thanks for posting!

Some great changes to make transportation a little less painful. I especially like the Yhoator Jungle bit. I always forget a warp scroll there.

Re: Version Update Coming! (05/16/2007)

****Spoiler Warning****


In the last few Aht Urghan missions you learn the identity of the dark rider (Odin) and who his little pawn has been. Popular belief is Odin will be an upcoming battle and possibly the next summonable avatar.


****End Spoiler****

Those are some good spoiler tags!


Edit: You could try using this [spoiler=Title]Spoiler Content[/spoiler ] (<- No space) to get..

That way maybe when I scroll down a page next time my storyline isnt spoiled before I get to it

Re: Version Update Coming! (05/16/2007)

Odin is referred to as the "Dark Rider" not the "Mysterious Knight". Unless SE has their own new pet name for him, I want to know who this is.
