FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

[Damane]

This so hard. Some of the complaints people have about this game are so ridiculous. FF14 is such easy mode that anything that takes less than 30 minutes to do is instantly horrible.

The FF14 community right now is the most self entitled group of folks I have seen in a long time. I wish SE wouldn't coddle them so much. Too many things take a few weeks to do and then people complain there is nothing to do.

I wish for the brutal days of old when it took years to accomplish anything just to annoy and get rid of all these whiney people.

I am sorry I think you misunderstood, I am in no way defending that design, i find it per say absolutely horrible... Kings were horrible and in no way should you bottleneck new content via timed bullshit that pops up every 2 hours

[CrstyCptSteveWitherspoon]

No one wants timed BS anymore. There's ways to make things fun and exciting yet still challenging without making everything a huge time sink.

the wait time for these CT and Hildebrand fates. what the flying fuck

[CrstyCptSteveWitherspoon]

Just waited 30 minutes for my last FATE, got bronze, and didn't get credit. FML

[Arelian]

So, wait. I'm not resubbed currently because I wanted to get some 2.1 impressions before I kept throwing money at SE.

Are you saying that to get into CT, you have to complete an over-farmed FATE?

[Corrderio]

So I guess the general idea will be to PT up with others and hope to god your combined contributions is enough to get Silver or Gold. Bleh...

basically. I did the coerthas one solo and got a silver but there wasn't 200 people there and I got there at 1/4 health. I figured I could get silver at full health. Wrong.

[Lucavi]

Again, are people doing the CT nonsense because they're running CT tonight, or just to have that sense of completion from having it done? I'm personally not touching it until SE patches that nonsense, but I could understand if people legitimately have their teams of 8 raring to go on CT right now.

[Corrderio]

I just want to do it for a breath of fresh air since I can't focus in WP at all anymore. That and if I get valor body I need a new head slot.

[Katlan]

Lol friend did CT... Bossss don't drop mitho and a person who got loot from first boss already dropped. On the first day it already happened! Ahaha... Wtg Yoshi-P. Couldn't of done boss rule like WoW LFR could you

[Corrderio]

So a chests spawns from each boss and not just the final? Wow that is stupid.

[Taruina]

Did they say they were going to impliment an ilevel check for this new stuff? Because having DPS' with darklight weapons is just not cutting it.

[Yukari]

Pretty sure any ilvl check only weights the weapon as 1 of the 11/12 slots, where the weapon is probably a lot more important when it determines base damage/healing/whatever.

[Voyage1970]

That and the ilvl checks in place are pitifully low, like I think it's 50 for CT if I remember right.

[Seravi Edalborez]

WP/AK and below don't even have a check. The 3 new HM dungeons are i48 avg.

[CrstyCptSteveWitherspoon]

Why on earth they thought it would be a good idea to have a 24 man raid where you can only bring in a party of 8 people was a good idea I'll never know. It's 100000x worse than AK ever was with people rage quitting 5 minutes in and needing to reteach people how to run the dungeon over and over.

If you honestly think alt tabbing and reading forums for an hour while waiting for boring as shit fates to pop is an "accomplishment" or "challenging" you're beyond help.

Well if it's really that bad may be the push I need to quit the game. I've been on the fence since everything I've been looking forward to (CT and Housing) just seem like a gigantic letdown.

The only save for that place is how easy everything is. Once you know the mechanic, the bosses are stupid easy. Got to the 2nd to last boss and a pt dropped. Duno the mechanics of it.

Don't see PVP being fun in a few months from now when if you don't constantly play you're behind everyone forever and any new PVP players will be literally unable to PVP. WOW has already announced they're doing a change to fix this problem in their newest expansion by offering SPVP/preset gear in arenas so that it's all about skill and not gear. Honestly, PVP is 95% gear right now, and will forever be that way because of how grindy it is to get the gear. There's zero reason you should implement a gear-based PVP model in your mmo in 2013 when all the other relevant PVP-MMO devs(GW2, WOW) are doing the complete opposite because no one likes that model anymore.

If you want to PVP I suggest you hop on the train now while it's new and people haven't found out the FOTM comps or have insane gear to outplay you with, or forever miss out on it.
