I got on the boat to Nashmau, and everyone BUT me skipped right to Nashmau. It made me so angry.

[Taj]

You've been able to do this intentionally for a while. What's happening is the client is zoning over to the boat too soon, and because it enters the boat before it's departed for the other route, its' status is still docked at Nashmau. So you enter the boat, and because it's docked at Nashmau, it kicks you off onto the Nashmau dock. It's not a problem with the servers, just a problem with the client cutscene ending too soon.

Last night my LS was gathering for Einherjar. Lots of people took the boat and got docked into Nashmau as the boat left. 1 person didn't, but he's notorious for his long loading times. Maybe you have the same problem?

I blame Bush.

[Janeru]

They should make it like in FF12, how you can pick to take the boat ride (or airship ride), or just skip it and zone to wherever you are trying to go.

That way, fishers and laypeople can be happy

Crazy talk. Square prefers it when no one is happy.

Is this similar to where the Windurst Airship pulls into jeuno and the CS shows it WAY back, and you actually get onto the dock before the airship pulls in?

I think they did that on purpose, IIRC, they said something about it reducing lag..? I don't know for sure, but I could have sworn it was in an update about the airship thing.

Then you werent invonvenienced in SE's eyes.

[inafume]

Why are they apologizing for "inconvenience"? Fishermen can go from Mhaura -> Selbina and then just Warp/OP back to Mhaura just before the trip ends! :D

Remember back when Harlequin's Horn gave us actual Mazurka +2, meaning that it doubled the speed. Square considered than an inconvenience as well. They have a very twisted definition of convenience.

I considered that a way to make a profit. Got it in a KS99 the weekend before the "bug", and sold it nearly immediately after they announced it actually was a bug. Good thing news doesn't travel all that fast.

[Kitha]

More like

We apologize for any convenience this may cause.

What with runic portals/nation warp NPC/outposts... ferries & airships seem so archaic

[Max™]

It really shoulda said "We apologize for any convenience which may have happened."

[Septimus]

It really shoulda said "We apologize for any convenience which may have happened."

No no. "We live to crush any moment of happiness that you may have."

[Stolin]

They should redo the airship/boat system to what they had in FF12. An option to go on the scenic ride or the quick ride.

[Max™]

They should make the Airships more like the Selbina/Mhaura boat, with fuckin Sky pirates and shit!

HELL YEAH!

[loial]

In terms of time-sinks, I'd be happy to see ??? respawn faster than 15 minutes.

But yeah, boat/airship rides... sure the very first time we all did our Kazham ride, we were probably saying, "Oooooo, so pretty." Now its just an excuse to get up, make a drink, use the bathroom, and come back in 5-10 minutes. So, maybe its SE's way of "forcing us" to take a short break from the game?

No, it's a part of their grand scheme to make you play hours to accomplish something that should take 15min. The less you accomplish, the longer you will play to get your stuff!


Someone should photoshop fafnir instead of the flying dragon of heroine hero...

[Hanyoko]

HELL YEAH!

Most likely it would be a mammet or something. But yea birds or something could be interesting.

HELL YEAH!

I thought about this a long time ago... thought it'd be cool to have whatever flying mobs suddenly show up on the airship... birds, bats, dragons/wyverns as random NMs, or even a renegade airship... since you know jeuno doesn't control them all since Cid made one >.> why can't someone else make one?

[shirizaan]

Something I would like to know about this... are all users experiencing it? Or is it limited to PC? Do people on Xbox also get warped right to Nashmau/experience cutscene glitches with the Airships?
