I'm not sure if I'd even go in with a full 24 since my guild doesn't have that many truly active players. 24 man content through the DF made me think this was something I could do to play with people who aren't in my 8 man group, but didn't require me filling all 24 slots.
Feel the way you want, but I don't think that all people are upset about this because they'll have to leave their bubble. I think some people, like me, are disappointed because this seemed like something you could do with a bunch of your friends that you might not do coil with. Believe it or not, this actually makes the 8 man bubble worse. It doesn't help at all. -

They could have gated it using some kind of token system to allow for groups to form a token at the enterance to CT I guess, but then you would have griefers who sit at the gate, ruin your party of 3, and then just do jack-all to ruin your day.
So Earth was explained to you, Cyrstal tower has existed for a long, long, long time. So eh. -

11-23-2013, 12:51 AMJowyI agree. An awful lot of people have been basing their FC size around doing alliance content, 8 people plus a load of pickups is not what everyone had in mind.Quote:

I know myself and my free company are pretty disappointed to not be able to do the 24 man content in groups larger than 8. We were really looking forward to doing Crystal Tower as a free company and now.....we can't. I hope they either add the alliance feature in or allow you to queu with two other groups of your choosing thru the same server party finder.
