Final Fantasy 14's upcoming 7.2 update, "Seekers of Eternity," releasing on March 25, includes exciting content and crucial quality-of-life changes. Notably, players will experience a new jogging speed when their sprint buff expires, enhancing exploration in safe zones. Additionally, dismounting will no longer require players to halt completely, streamlining travel through vast areas. The new Cosmic Exploration mode, debuting on April 22, will introduce an unlimited sprint feature. Producer Naoki Yoshida acknowledged the long wait for these updates, emphasizing the need to adapt to the changes after years of familiarity with previous mechanics.
According to community translations of the latest Letter from the Producer stream, broadcast in the early morning hours of March 14, Final Fantasy 14 producers Naoki Yoshida and Toshio Murouchi shared two major adjustments the 7.2 update will make to sprinting and mounting.
Instead of defaulting back to the normal walking speed when the sprint buff wears off, players will instead enter a jogging state with a speed somewhere between walking and sprinting as long as they remain out of combat.
"It only took us 10 years," Yoshida is translated as saying. "But we [also] have 10 years of muscle memory. It will take some getting used to."
