welcome to the forums!

Only thing that would be nice, chance to level your craft up from day 1. But then so would all the other high level crafters who also know every trick in the book to do it...

I really couldn't face CoP again.. and I liked it.

[Kyreth]

They did that already. It was called the Xbox 360 beta test and, from all accounts, it sucked. Do you REALLY want to be on a server where everyone is flooding the newbie zones for the first weeks/months, where nobody can craft decent items or food and your best source of income is quests and NPCing shit?

And the economy isn't fucked up with hordes of RMT'ers and stuff?

Sounds like NA release, only we'd know better. I'd thrive. Dunno about you.

I don't know about your server but here on Quetz the economy's fine. The best I can remember since mid-late '04.

I hated it, still won't do it. Months of crap for a shiny ring. No thanks, I'll do that when I have nothing else worth doing five years from now.

Oh wait, by then the CoP ring will be trivial loot and I'll likely be playing something else. Never mind.

I'd like to see servers actually progress with age. Update areas/missions permamently once a year, realtime. New players automatically go to the "newest date" server unless Worldpassed.

3 Nations missions? Have them resolve after 1 year, put in new missions to replace them for Ranks 1-10. ZM? Resolve after 2nd year, different mission chain afterwards. CoP? Same deal. ToAU? Again. If stuff is considered "essential", keep it in. Otherwise, put something else in it's place. If someone's mid-chain of missions, have them go back and auto-cancel it (as "another group of adventurers beat you to it/saved the world/you're a lazy bastard for waiting we need you to do this instead") for the new missions.



No need for new servers. Just advance the timeline.

[Severance]

Would allowing everyone to move their characters to a new server, but remove all gil on hand work? t('-'

[levish]

I wouldn't, only way i might is if signups were put to a vote and you could be voted off and the information for that was made public...

would be nice if this was done now...

[Epyslon]

FFXI needs paid character transfer, and a fixed endgame and id condsider playing it a bit more

[Matricide]

i always thought the reason most people continue to play year after year is because theres endless things to work on on your character. there's far too much bullshit to do in this game to reset every 6 months. and i mean what i said, most of it is bullshit.

couple worthy things said regarding irc+epeen, and working so you have what no one else does/to be better than others. am i gearing up the best i can so i can outparse someone else by 1%? it's about making goals and finishing them. NO one would play this game if there was any kind of reset every 6 months. it's really not that fun at all.

the game is simply a time sink, and your only bonus is the feeling of accomplishment and not having to do things for yourself again.

just some thoguhts and a couple cents.

No it would just create another midgarsomwhateverfuckeverhowyouspellit, just with less inflation.

[Septimus]

Hell. No.

I started a second character on my server from scratch, it is hell enough getting the things done for him with a 75 RDM to destroy everything that is in the way. Some of the parties that I have been in make me exceedingly grateful that I do not need to rely on them to get anything annoying done- yay solo genkai items, coffer keys, ect.

The thought of redoing CoP missions seriously makes me want to quit though.

[Popeh]

Hell. No.

Not the Cutscenes!!!!

Anyone who did CoP with me knows how much real money I spent replacing random electrical items that didn't survice the lengthy CS's.

Cut scenes are fine. CoP had a great story, it was the excercise in masochism that you have to go through to get to them that is the problem. Just thinking about the begging/bribing/sexual favors I am going to have to go through to get to lolsea makes me a sad panda.

>_> Septimus was present at the first JoL pop if you read that thread (the one here or on KI, Sekkite posted the screenshots iirc) also, you should of picked up by now that Septimus is leveling a second character (see the chocobo thread, last page).

Its all a blur to me, i have no clue wut u sed. I just guess.

[Popeh]

I'm sure the CS we're great, but i always had people waiting on me cos I passed out after fights while they went on to get CS and ready for next attack.
So CS = smash enter key as many times as possible and face going redder and redder!
