    My main complaint: Skillpoint distribution in a party of 3 has been bugged since beta and still isn't fixed. At least one member of the party always doesn't get his skillpoints after the fight although he clearly has skillups during it.
    We tried relogging, changing jobs and different party leads and nothing fixed it.

    Auction House and delivery service seem like pretty gargantuan things that need to be added in asap. Crafting would be fun, but the retainer system is, as everyone already knew in beta, a huge clusterfuck.
    I don't even know how anyone could consider macro or linkshell functionality to be an addition to the game. they're two basic components for any mmo, just like fighting and experience bars filling up.

    My biggest gripe is that Leves suck. They are boring, redundant, sharing is a complete WASTE, and their difficulty is completely inconsistent. Yesterday, I tried to duo a 10 leve at 2 stars, and we got a bunch of swarms buttseksing us and a double flee (wtf?). Then I tried another 10 leve at 5 stars and every mob was two shotted.

    Are you sure you weren't getting Skill Points, just there was no message for it? I had the same thing yesterday, where I would get progress points, and points on my Skill bar, but no overall total at the end of each battle.

    Sure they may have few instances but no lasting appeal.

    But you were going to wait half a year or more anyway (good idea)? What are you doing here then? Trolling? Second thoughts?
    Looking at this mess, I'm sure glad I didn't pay for it.

    Why is that exactly? What is it wasting?

    Disregard the broken party-skill thing. If you duo your leves with someone else and share (instead of link), are you not both benefiting from the leves, effectively doubling the skill gains?

    Right now Leve-Link seems to be a waste since the combined financial rewards don't come close to the rewards of two individual leves (barring loot-class upgrades, of course), but Leve-Share seems like a pretty good idea.

    It's not a waste if you use favour. Besides, it's basically free money and skill ups.

    Things I bitch about:

    Equipment screen sucks.
    No sorting inventory.
    NPC menus way too slow.
    Durability and stats should show on mouse over, not having to click an item.
    No auction house.
    HUGE zones filled with absolutely no mobs.
    Movement is too touchy.
    Not nearly enough quests.
    No tutorials and guides and half the systems are overly complicated with no explanation.

    Seriously, that is it. Those things are nearly my own thoughts about the game. I'm not going to bash the game because I'm hopeful but those things, in my opinion, are simple and should be easily fixed. Also, I think the linkshell system should allow easy promotions and possible ranks for different allowances.

    I'm not really looking for much in the linkshell system because the fact that it's a complete copypasta and that they mentioned the "Company" system makes me think it's just a stopgap.

    That said, if it's not, there should be:
    At least one more tier of membership
    A function to set LS chat to "moderated" (IE - "STFU EVERYONE I'M GIVING OUT STUN ORDERS")
    A shared retainer
    Transferable ownership

    Other stuff could be attached but largely depends on other functionality being added (such as in-game BBSes).

    I hate that you need to manually raise your shield every 15 seconds or so. Why couldn't they have made it so your shield stays up the entire fight when you activate Guard? If they wanted to balance it, they should have just reduced your attack power, and/or increased your stamina consumption while your shield is up.

    Constantly watching the chat log for "Your shield arm falls" and spamming the Guard button every few seconds during a fight isn't fun. It's annoying.

    Here's a random complaint.
    in the starter Uldah quest, you're forced to lose the gladiator fight.
    5minute time limit and I had him at 1% within 30seconds, but he wouldn't take anymore damage after that and time ran out making me lose :/
    Don;t make me fight if I can't even get the points for my lancer -_-
    fuck.. and now some bitch is taking all my credit for fuckin up that Goobue

    Inability to alter status of linkshell members unless you're standing right next to them
    Can't scroll the map or zoom in/out

    Related to some of yours but also the UI is simply too much fluff. Having to scroll thru a bunch of unneeded menus to find the information you want (durability, setting up macroes, linkshell member list, etc).

    So much stuff left out of this that should have been there at the pre-alpha phase, let alone at actual release.

    You can scroll the large (m-key) map but you have to use the I-J-K-L keys instead of the arrow keys or mouse.

    This that have so far made me wish I didn't buy the game:

    - NO inventory sorting (2010 fail?)
    - 36 hour cooldown on Guildleves if stupid as hell as well, seriously it's the only thing I can find to do in the game other then harvest/craft/farm 2 random mobs in the corner of the jungle..
    - Menu lag is crazy as well, it takes like 5 seconds to do anything in a shop.
    - Lag in general is unreal, I mean, I expected better, getting R800+ at all time is a little disappointing. It takes like 10sec's plus to take a swing at a tree and have a menu respond again for example.
    - Macro system is not that great It works ok for me right now, but later down the road I can see myself having to make 2-4 macro's to change my class easily.
    - I haven't even checked out the bazzar system yet, but I can image it's awful as well, I am already thinking of Bazzar malls in FFXI that have a bunch of overpriced shit that no one will buy and never being able to find what you want.
    - Everything feels painfully dragged out ether way I hope most of these problems are resolved asap.
