Dynamis Reborn!

[Burmecia]

Anyone could enter a WoE zone until half of the mobs in that wing had been killed. Anyone before then could enter, sit at the zone entrance, and lot anything that dropped, and indeed this happened quite a bit when I did WoE.

That said, I didn't get the impression that's what they were doing with Dynamis from the announcement. It sounded instanced to me, which amuses me because now that Dynamis is borderline-irrelevant, they're finally giving us something that would've made me very happy a few years ago. Oh well.

Yeah that's exactly how I felt when I heard the news. I remember REALLY wishing for an instanced Dynamis after rudely being ninja'd out of our own by some notorious jerky linkshells back in the day. ._.; It's not even a problem anymore, but with key item hourglasses making this event easy access, I could see it becoming a high interest again amongst many players.

The hourglass change is nice.

The removal of zone registration sucks badly.

Unless they instance it...who knows?
But from what this sounds like...is a cheap Walk of Echoes remake since barely anyone goes in there...idk that's just me.

I'm curious about how SE will be implementing their Dynamis changes. Depending on how they do so Dynamis linkshells might see a huge revival, or they might be replaced by hordes of pickup (and static) groups... or Dynamis could end up as 'popular' as Garrison or Eco Warrior.

I await these forthcoming changes with no small amounts of both trepidation and anticipation.

Maybe it's just due to the newness of these forums, but after reading this thread I still find myself asking "Where is the original information regarding all these comments?" I don't seem to see any link in the OP nor elsewhere, so I'm unsure where the idea of changes being made to the current Dynamis systems even came from. Please clarify?

On the main page ( http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/forum.php ) there's a sidebar titled "Dev Tracker" that shows all the posts made by SE staff, including but not limited to update announcements.

Lushi you may want to Edit the post Title to have the Development tag [dev1000] in it otherwise SE may not actually look at this thread! <.<

Ah, thank you. Yeah, I just dove into some of these subforums and didn't read all of that sidebar first. And.... Yeah... "Reservations will no longer be required to enter the [listed] areas." DO NOT WANT! I sincerely hope they're going to put something in place of the existing open loot pool.

I still do Dynamis regularly, and still enjoy it, but if they don't think ahead on this it's going to utterly destroy the entire system...

There are too many questions as yet unanswered about how they're going to implement these changes to go assuming the worst just yet.

I know I will take fire for this but I don't care.

It's about time that SE woke up and smelled the WOW coffee. There's a reason why Blizzard makes billions on it's games and SE doesn't. It's called "playability".

Look at SE's player base shrinking, shrinking, melting OH what a world. And there's one BIG reason for it. The time it takes to do anything worthwhile in the game. I have been playing this game for 8 years, and frankly I'm applauding SE in it's latest efforts (even though it is quite literally a day late and millions of dollars short).... to make this game more time effective and easier to play, so that good ol' welcome message we recieve when we log in (you know the one, don't forget about your friends family or work).... actually isn't the great SE lie for once. Relics being done in record time! YAY. Currency prices dropping through the floor! YAY. It's about time.

I do agree with some things that have been posted here though. Please SE, make Dynamis instanced, like BCNM's. Do not make it a free-for-all. At least keep SOME of the difficulty in this game so I don't have to deal with 10 year mentality players monopolizing areas of Dynamis. Keep it enjoyable among friends but by all means, make it more accessible. Please don't make me feel that when I walk into Dynamis I just walked into a Kindergarten class.

I guess that's all I have to say about it. Fire at will at me folks.
