FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

[Tokitoki]

Why was this conclusion reached? Someone realized how shitty random question thread was?

Threads get too long and slow the forums down. Or something along those lines.

What are you talking about? Please tell me your laptop allowed you to use the left mouse to look without moving your character and now it's fucked because mine doesn't do that anymore either and it did in the other beta phases.

I know I'm not crazy because I literally streamed a tutorial of why kb+m is so much better for click healing and was abusing the shit out of movement/click/look with that function.

Yeah, I was able to move my camera around with my mouse on my laptop by left clicking. Then I installed the game on my desktop and that doesn't seem to be working anymore.

Sucks if they got rid of that.

Edit: Logged in today and now it's working normally again. Weird.

It's better for search functions and results.

Why they don't have a cycle thru NPC key-bind is beyond me... that and not being able to move the cursor thru menu options via they keyboard are really the only 2 game mechanics that I'm not happy with. Btw, I don't like to use the mouse.

Slow people need to be barred from being tanks. Had a halatali run that usually takes 35 min take 50 min cause the dude took his sweet time moving e_e

I'm glad qarn/cutters stepped up the difficulty curve. This really sets apart people who pay attention and the button-mashers.

Anyone had problems with getting the achievement for joining GC? My friend joined, didn't get the achiv and the quest for Dzemael is red for him.

So, I heard Yoshi teared up during some stream they did? O.o

No idea what he's saying but it does make me sympathize for the guy unless his tears are tears of joy over how mad NA community is.

Fuck off with that. Leave the queue running SE you insufferable assholes.

Also would it kill them to make cities a sanctuary instead of just the rooms? I have a good feeling that it's to prevent a billion people just idling in town and instead idling outdoors or in an instanced room, but it's still annoying.

Towns are already annoyingly laggy, so sorry but I think it was a good choice.

Why does every quest that has a yes/no to accept always default to no? If I didn't want to do the quest or join the guild I'd not be talking to the NPC. It's especially a pain in the ass when you're spamming through quest text because you've seen it before.

I demand the ability to pull up my character/equip window when being given quest reward options to choose between.

I've generally learned to check/compare the items when I first accept the quest, but sometimes I forget...

Agreed.

Another workaround is to cancel at reward, check items and accept again, lol.

Are you on PC? If you press the Keybind for Character Information (Default is C I think) you can pull up your equip screen while looking over the rewards.

A drunk redditor posted a translation on the FFXIV subreddit. I'd post the URL but I can't. It's on the front page though, and usually the content moves slow enough...

Eh, I was just annoyed that I crashed in town

Though I'm wondering how big of a resting bonus you can save up since I haven't even come close to running out of it yet.

I suppose I should have been a bit more specific.

The shortcut won't work if the quest reward is given to you in a cutscene since it keeps you from pulling anything up besides the chatlog during scenes. I've just encountered it a lot since I've been burning through most of the Main Scenario Quests as Arcanist for the EXP and gear (hence needing to compare items a lot). :/

login to ffxiv @ 730 am before leaving for work
come back home at 5 pm and still logged in.

clearly people idling 24/7 has nothing to do with the server congestion.

1017 while in the queue is some bull shit.

I haven't received any shipping confirmation from digital river or the SE store for my PS3 CE.

Got a text message from my mailbox store and apparently I got a package from Minnesota so I'm assuming that's it. Still, no tracking number or anything. I was also looking for a charge on my card that I couldn't seem to find this morning. I guess I'll look again when I get home. All I have to say is, the PSN code or PS3 disc better work correctly and be fucking NA and not EU like the Phase 4 and EA PSN codes were.
