Zone lines are good IF you have zones, which I hope we don't.
The job closet has potential, but would be better gear sets because of cross-over gear that you use for multiple jobs. So rather than it depending on what job you're on, you can just make an item (that takes up no inventory space) called rdm enfeeble set, so when you either equip it or transfer it from inventory to MH and vise versa, it equips or moves up to 16 pieces of gear with it.
Oh, and in most cases, crafters make no money from gear unless it's +1, so if it's too expensive it's because the materials to make it are too expensive. This will never change.

And you know what else may be kinda cool? Having an "auto-reply" message. So for example; I have 2 kids 6 & 3. As a single Dad my responsibility is them so...I go AFK cause something's going on that needs to be taken care of. Argento hit's me up via /tell or LS and no response. He may think I'm gone but maybe I'm in a PT so I miss the message. If your AFK or have no actual "physical" movement or "action" in the game for let's say 10 minutes, it would be nice if auto-reply started so when my friends talk to me they are notified. If I get a PT request, they are notified instead of "wondering" "Hey is this jerk who's seeking being a *** or is he...OH wait his auto-reply came back as AFK. Cool" And someone brought up the whole map thing with the ability to have better detail & I agree. Everyone knows they can fall from the huge cliff in E. Sara but can't fall from ones half that size in Tharongi. WTF! A nice detailed Topography type map to view and see where u can and can't go would be great. I know my first stint throught the Merphituad Mountains I thought I was taking a short cut across the map only to end up backtracking cause the "cliff" was to high. -.-

Hey like that even better. Just told my GF who has been playing since day 1 & we both agree that works too. The whole point is to make it a little less time consuming removing all my Drg gear to go Whm for Dynamis and having to figure out, WTH is that head piece?! >< Is it in the Mog safe,storage,or locker!? THEN ad in the SE Security Token and OH WAIT; NOW There's ANOTHER freaking place I have to look for crap. LOLOL Being User friendly a little bit more would be great. And can we POSSIBLY get a better form of Auto-Translate please? So hard to communicate sometimes the SIMPLEST words to our fellow brothers & sisters in order to tell them something. Shoot I had NO idea wth WC meant for years till my GF said "Ummm bathroom or Water Closet." *noob* /hide Even just telling someone "Hey going AFK isn't in there!"

It lets you use a controller without having to download another program But yeah...for when the controller breaks and the nearest bestbuy that hasnt shut down is a 3 hour drive away... would be nice.

I play on both pc and 360, and prefer controller...but that's mainly because the mouse controls are so horrid. -.-

It's also nice not having to use the same hand for both movement and camera. Gets real old, real fast. -.-

Awwww, I LOVE the keyboard onry thing, I have long and flexible fingers though, so I have no trouble running around and using the camera at the same time :D
And so help me god if anyone makes a dirty comment about my long and flexible fingers I will use them to rip your balls off by reaching down your throat.

I've obviously got no issue with them improving the mouse control, as long as I still have the option not to use it >:o

funny that ppl spent so much money for ACP expansion, security tokens etc, only to be told a bigger and better game is coming out a few months later. we all knew it was coming, but i think its funny SE milking just a bit more dollars from their players before starting all over again. things i would like to see with 14 is:1. better customer service / service & support. 2. better GM's that actually help you when something happens. 3. make the game fair for all version types. 4. maintenance during JP daytime for once. 5. not let only JP version of the game get rare or rare/ex festival items. 6. Better security for characters/items etc.

Something to nip RMT in the bud or at least put them at a standard disadvantage would be nice.
Other than that, just a more immersible character development would be great, along with better customer service and more interactive social aspect would be great.

Make it quicker to buy singles of stacked items off the AH. Nothing I like more than trying to play the price game with x number of singles when stacks aren't in stock or I don't need all 12 for my synths.

Can I use one hand on the number pad+arrows to move? Yes. Do I enjoy it? No. Just use the "compact" keyboard setting, way better. Run with WASD (left hand) move camera with arrows (right hand). Just press space whenever you wanna write something.

As big of a pain in the *** as it is, it's something I like about FFXI. When I played WoW, I hated being able to get everything done solo as a healer. -.-;a
Also, being forced to control the camera with keyboard at all is lame, imo. Option to, sure. Forced, weak. And I tried compact for a while, but despite it's pain-in-the-***-ness, full size controls were still more enjoyable. =\

Oh I hope they don't make a mouse a requirement. I don't have a mouse for my PC, I lost it. >.> Now I have a 360 controller setup as a mouse and im too used to it now. Also I play sitting on my bed, using a mouse on your bed kinda sucks. =/

Bad SE! Bad!

they wouldnt! Oh, I know... I'm just heartily sick of the fact that every time I turn around I see a 75 SAM. Hopefully in the new one it'll be more even with the other DD classes.

Edit: Just to reiterate what Scragg said for those that are making posts in here. If you feel something should be considered please post it in the Suggestions Forum as per below. Please remember that it's not about defending or attacking an idea, just looking at things that you may want to see in FFXIV and to share feedback on those ideas as a player-group. Scragg said: This forum is for suggestions for Square-Enix on the development of FFXIV. Please use the following format when posting.
Got a suggestion? Make a new Topic for your suggestion. The topic name should be the suggestion in it's shortest form.
Inside your post, reiterate the suggestion in the short form. Add a description to why Square-Enix should spend their valuable time doing it. Make it concise.
Everyone Else Rate the original post up if you like the suggestion, down if you think it's a bad idea. Reply with any opinions.
If we get enough decent ones I might compile a list and sticky it. Seeing as Scragg has given us this nice new shiny forum I figured it might be a good place to actually start asking the question, what do you want to see in the next FF MMORPG?Please try to take into consideration some of the things that have already been stated as fact e.g. There will be no character transfers. Personally, better use of instanced events is a must. Possible more instanced events for lower level characters to keep them interested. True use of player vs many enemies without having to use sleepga or something similar so one enemy can be battled at a time instead of fighting many at a time.
