See Tickle me Elmo on eBay.

I still have my breeded egg. I figured this would be one of the changes so I planned ahead.

I can see how you feel, but that's a bad perspective on life.

"I mean, honestly. I had the best computer in the world yesterday. It took me a fortune to make. And now the parts cost much less! Not only that, people are getting more RAM and better graphics cards! What the heck!?"

It's all in the state of human advancement. Sure, maybe SE could have been nice and added some of the features relating to how the chocobo looks to your current chocobos. Hell, they could have possibly made it that your yellow chocobo you raised before the update could have a chance of being red or green. But it would be a hassle to make preexisting chocobos adapt to these changes due to some technical problem.

Would you rather have something to make chocobos better in the long run or not? Seriously, did you only plan to raise one chocobo? If so, it's your right to complain. If not, it's the same argument as to when the exp to the level cap was lowered by almost 150k. It's the same argument against adding in exp bands. It's the same argument as adding an expansion pack. Sure, maybe these things made your past less of an accomplishment. "Finished CoP? Who cares! ToAU is out." (essentially) But it'll certainly make your future more appealing.

Take it as you will.

My 2 gil.

P.S.: That's how everything new is. It's probably going to be extremly expensive just in part due to its rarity and newness. Some will want the fastest chocobo on the server first.

It is a goog thing SE is making these changes, it'll make raising my next chocobo even easier with the new stat boosts.

I'm sorry that your guys paid millions to raise your chocobo, but you have no one to blame but yourselves. I've fed my chocobo vomp carrots, carrot paste, tokopekko grass, and guasebit grass at their needed times and I never paid more than 50,000g to raise my choco (that millet stuff costs alot).

Mine slept for 4 days and woke up after it did some group training with other chocobos. I believe their is a certain reason they sleep over what you tell them. Kind of like when you try to wake up your kids for school and they go back to sleep.

Since my chocobo is poor in every category, I wonder if mine is going to have a regular body with puny legs and a shrunken head.

My chocobo has sleeping for a week now, and I've tried the trick of setting it to Basic Care. It just doesn't want to wake up. I think Hantileon slipped it something while I wasn't looking.

Anyway, it's good to know that SE is trying their best to fix what we see as a problem. Usually it seems to take them a lot longer than this. >_>;

The good: Waking up your chocobo. My friend's has been asleep for 12 days. We presume it's dead.

The bad: new colors and physical features that currently breeding chocobos or chocobos bred before the update can not obtain.

In other words, there's going to be alot of homeless chocobos come October....
