They build the map and terrain with things they sometimes use, but often not. So they could use it later in otehr updates... but you never know. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 03-13-2006, 02:43 AM | #17 (permalink) | | Veteran Member Join Date: Jul 2004 Posts: 1,863 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 5 Thanked 27x in 21 Posts Gil: 18,651 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 18,651 Donate | Re: I never knew what those GREEN porters in Sky do... do you? | Originally Posted by Darkhound | | Yah but it is strnage that they have been there for sooooooooooooooo long, and nobody has seem to know what they do.

You don't need RoZ for CoP and new expansion will be the same. So since you don't need RoZ for ToUA then it's impossible for sky portals to have anything to do with ToUA D; | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 04-03-2006, 06:28 PM | #20 (permalink) | | Junior Member Administrator Join Date: Dec 2003 Posts: 4,930 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 235 Thanked 682x in 347 Posts Gil: 21,754 Bank: 79,478 Total Gil: 101,232 Donate | Re: I never knew what those GREEN porters in Sky do... do you?

Based on that wording though, it only requires one or the other. "Players who.....Roz or CoP...". Based on that it doesn't seem to care which one you have, so long as you have one. I wonder if some of the stuff encoded for Dynamis is in duplicate on both expansions.  I RNG 75 I WAR 37 I NIN 38 I SAM 50 I Woodworking 92+2

Yeah, I know it reads like that, but I think it's just badly worded. It doesn't make any sense to require either one unless there are redundant dat files.
I'm pretty sure it's supposed to mean if either of the discs have not been installed and registered, you will be unable to enter.  - | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 04-03-2006, 11:00 PM | #23 (permalink) | | Member Join Date: Jan 2003 Posts: 966 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 1,934 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 1,934 Donate | Re: I never knew what those GREEN porters in Sky do... do you? | Originally Posted by Taskmage | | I'm pretty sure it's supposed to mean if either of the discs have not been installed and registered, you will be unable to enter. | Yea I wasn't exactly sure about that so I just asked someone instead of checking the site, they said just like other expansions and you don't need the other expansions. Although this expansion is going to be a lot different than the rest, I still have a feeling that it will be like the others and you can play the expansion even if you just own the main game and what you just bought. But at the same time now that the game and 2 expansions are packaged together on a DVD for the PC, and all on the Xbox 360 discs, it's very possible that they will require both expansions since it won't seem like such a difficult thing to ask for. So it really could go either way and with SE's iffiness about the new expansion I don't know what to believe. In the end I guess it's all just speculation and we'll just have to wait and see :P | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 04-03-2006, 11:02 PM | #24 (permalink) | | J...atatouille Super Moderator Join Date: Dec 2002 Posts: 8,338 Style: Light - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 5 Thanked 136x in 106 Posts Gil: 29,374 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 29,374 Donate | Re: I never knew what those GREEN porters in Sky do... do you? then all our mule accounts will need to get expansions if we are to send them to mule in the new area...

The Green Telepads are useless. At Fan Fest, SE said they sometimes add things in incase they want to use them at a later date, and they never decided to use these.
I suppose Doll Gizmo and Cactuar Needle are examples of this. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-19-2006, 02:39 PM | #30 (permalink) | | Junior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Michigan Posts: 324 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 1,336 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 1,336 Donate | Re: I never knew what those GREEN porters in Sky do... do you?
