[dev] Possible Inventory adjustmentsFollow

Mog Chocobo.

From the initial lines of the post, I'm imagining that....

Are they... Actually... trying to get the code to make sense.... So they can do things for the player?

WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE SQUARE WE'VE HATED AND LOATHED!

I am seriously taken aback by their sudden tackling of things deemed to annoying.

Step 1: Drop ps2.

Step 2: Update game and add all kind of things.

I would love me some more slots. And how hard can it be to turn on the ability to access storage when not in your nation? It isn't like I had to take out all them items before I changed Nations >.>

Swap PS2 with Tanaka, then. :P

Without Tanaka you wouldn't be playing FFXI period... maybe WoW or EQ2. I just get annoyed that people butcher the man. Yeah, he didn't change with the times but he did make FFXI possible.

I would love to have more than 8 delivery slots, inventory wouldn't be an issue for me if it wasn't so damn annoying to move stuff to mules.

Or if they could make it so we could send things from within our mog house, then logging in and out would be fast. I'd take either option.

They could do what Phantasy Star Universe did. On top of a shared storage space between characters to make it easier to give things to them. Much later in it's life they made it so when you were in your other characters room(Since you could always go there) you can go up to their equivalent of a moogle and use it's storage as if you were on your alt. Put things in take things out. Ya da Ya da.

I think from what the OP meant (yes I went there to read the thread) they actually meant Fat Chocobo:

This is prolly the most recognizable incarnation of it. (I'd embed the pic if the board let me, but won't let me because I'm not premium) It was actually in FF3 (the original FF3; I don't mean FF6) as well. For those that haven't played either FF3 or FF4; you'd use a Carrot or special green (I understand originally in JP it was Gyshakl Greens or something; First guy who translated it from JP to English just wrote it as carrot tho) and it'd pop up where it smelled like Chocobos, and you could give him your excess stuff to store for you.)

But it's good news that they are expanding bags again; we sure need it!

The constant Tanaka hate bothers me too (not because I like tanaka, but because I'm @#%^ing tired of hearing people bitching about him), but I have to admit that it's pretty funny timing on their part. The second he's gone, they start announcing that they're gonna fix all this sh*t we've been griping about for years, and that they've previously mentioned wasn't a priority for them. Wouldn't shock me if it's "We've wanted to fix this as long as you've been bitching about it, but he wouldn't @#%^ing let us"

Who's with me? Equipped gear doesnt count as inventory space!

Locker access outside of moghouse!

Discussed: Storage in all nations? Yes please!

that would likely complicate gear swapping to the point of making it nearly or entirely impossible. Can you imagine what would happen to this game if we suddenly found it even more difficult or impossible to gearswap?

So are they ever going to update Event Item Storers? I noticed the other day that you still can't store Novennial gear on them. And we just got like 6 items the 10th aniv. event. I really don't want to have to use those stupid slips if I don't have to.

Why not? Damnit Matsui.

..What too soon to place blame where it doesn't belong? Blah.

Just place the blame on Enix² and call it a day.

General rule of thumb: If someone disagrees with you, but they're not skilled with words, and they're lower on the intelligence scale, or they're just lazy, they'll use the rate-down button as an "I disagree" button for some stupid reason. It's been like this for years. However, bitching about getting rated down, or about karma in general, is grounds for immediate rate-downs, because it's just accepted practice. The trick is really, really simple: stop caring about karma. No one with any semblance of intelligence who's been here more than a few months actually cares about it, because it's an empty, meaningless number that really only reflects your popularity on the forum during your first 2000~3000 or so posts.

Also worth noting: Each individual title represents your Average Karma (ie: across every single one of your posts), and the four "ranks" are simply an indicator of what you're default karma score is on any new post (New users and "unranked" users (Light blue on FFXI's skin, like yourself) will post with "Default" as the, shockingly, Default rating, which is very easy to hit sub-default from. Scholars (Blue, formerly Goldenrod) have an initial rating of Decent on their posts, Sages (Green, formerly red) start out at Good, and Gurus (Red, formerly seafoam) start out at Excellent. The only time this doesn't hold true is if someone is so disliked that their average post is Sub-default, at which point they get auto-subdefault (and often don't realize it, which causes a great deal of entertainment for the rest of us) or someone is on the verge of changing "ranks" due to a higher end average score (Unranked with new posts at Decent, Scholars with new posts at Good (like me), Sages with new posts at Excellent).

Karma's just a silly number that determines the color of your username, not something to actually give a sh*t about.

Protip: Complaining about getting rated down is a guaranteed way to get rated down a lot more.

What they need to do is make a secondary armor slots, that way we can wear two sets of armor and weapons and toggle it with one button, its a good idea but probably will never happen.

I think he means two sets which fall into 'equipped' slots, thus freeing up 20-40 slots from your gobbiebag and allowing you to swap freely without running into issues once your bag fills up.

Unfortunately, that would only work for meathead DDs who have nothing but a TP set and a WS set. I think even most pure DDs have more sets than two.

You make it out to be more complicated than it really is. People rate-up what they want to see more of, and rate-down what they want to see less of. That's all there really is to it.

Pockets for each gear slot in the inventory: Main, Sub, Ranged, Ammo, Head, Neck, Ear, Body, Waist, Hands, Fingers, Back, Legs, Feet--with one more pocket for miscellaneous/consumables/everything else, maybe one extra pocket specifically for Bazaar. Pocket space follows the size of one's Gobbiebag, just like Locker, Satchel, and Sack.

I'd like to say that should be more equipment and item space than any or us should ever need, but we all know that the moment it was implemented there'd be a thousand players that've filled it to capacity.

Only need 7 slots for fashion gear.

or maybe 8... I forget if ammo forces you to blink

Be a DRK, wear WHM af, change your weapon to a staff, profit.

Be a galka, convert all pants to subligaria, ideally the pink ones that desynth into cashmere cloth. Profit.

Ammo by itself cannot force you to blink, unless that ammo causes you to unequip a ranged weapon you have equipped.

If you're a Sage on the verge of Guru, your posts will default to Excellent.
