Dev Tracker: Discussion (Old)

I have bad news, though. I've seen the future, and Crab is not a playable monster type in Monstrosity.

Crabuzzkill

[Slycer]

Whatever, I already have my Shell Scepter.

[dasva]

What's this? I might get prize by throw tons of saved up gil into a box?

[Seha]

Watch it being something completely misvalued and you lose tons of gil for shit.

[Malithar]

Watch it being something completely misvalued and you lose tons of gil for shit.

Or watch it be something completely awesome, causing people to begin shouting for massive gil loans like they do relic loans lol. "I just need 500 mil, I'll give it back in just a sec!"

[Seha]

Heavy metal plates!

[Buffy]

2 years too late, but the ability to exchange 3 pair of empy feet for 1 that you want is pretty amazing.

But again, 2 years too late.

Inb4 the gil chests go belly up and Squeenix is forced to give everyone rank 1 bonanza wins because the moogles are too big to fail.

I look forward to people putting 2m gil in there and getting a worm lure back.

[Darkmagi]

I can't wait to see someone trade it max gil. I really hope they actually put a legitimate prize for that. lol

[Fwahm]

From what I understood, you don't lose the gil you put in. I understood it as a interest like system, except instead of getting gil, you get randomish items depending on how much is inside.

[Kyte]

Considering NA POL says the 6th, Imma go with its safe to say its the 6th. ;P

Spoiler: show

In the version update scheduled for August 6 2013, we will be adding new Seekers of Adoulin missions, introducing the brand-new Monstrosity system, and, at long last, rune fencers and geomancers will be able to obtain their artifact equipment. Additionally, we will be making various adjustments to stats for equipment with item levels, colonization and lair reives, and much more.

Previously, we announced that the August version update would include new skirmishes and that additional adjustments would be made to certain coalition assignments so that bonuses would be granted depending on the distance to the objective. However, these elements will be introduced in an additional version update once they have undergone further testing.

The additional version update will be implemented in late August.

An announcement will be made regarding the details for the additional version update at a later time. We apologize for the delay and will continue to work hard so this content meets its new release date.

It's apparently going to be on Monday the 5th at 7AM EST. Sooooo...yeah. When something is translated (by the Community Reps) but quoted from someone in Japan, there's a 99% chance that you can subtract a day from the date if you're in Amurika.

[dasva]

Yeah the translation calls it a savings box that might give you something if you put in a bunch not an exchange. Sounds more just like a bank for people with capped gil who want to keep more lol

That said maybe the text in the dialog box screenshot gives more info? Light the 2nd shift slycer signal!

[Slycer]

Light the 2nd shift slycer signal!

lol

It just says:

What do you want to do?
Examine the contents.
Put gil in.
Take out the contents.

Where'd you see the 7 AM bit? And yeah, looked back at some of the past translations and more then I thought were off. I thought this most recent one was the only one that was translated wrong like that, but seems it was more common then I assumed. Guess I just heard about this last one the most cause the update was on a Monday? Know that was strange.

[Tarage]

I for one want a beach covered in Crabaubles.

And actually looking at the dev picture... is that second Crabauble red?

[Chamaan]

I want the crabs to replace the mogs. It's already established in the cutscenes for mog gardens that crabs and moogles are natural foes. I want to walk up to a crab standing in the middle of my beach, I talk to him, he spins around on one leg, "GLURBGLURBGLURB BUBBLE BLUB GLURB" and then he Big Scissors me for 99% of my HP and offers to sell me a bag of seeds.

Crab Gardens. Make that shit happen.

[Kincard]

Hm, they said they're adding new items to the Login Campaign, but doesn't the item tradein end on the same day as the patch? Are they going to extend it or something?

[Chamaan]

It's another month of login stuff. That's why this one is called Login Campaign No. 1. Just watch. Points will rollover and you'll be able to buy HQ king pops for 2k points.
