What's the cumbersomeness? You stack attacks and you are sure the right sequence will be executed. Maybe they should add the possibility to skillchain "on the fly", but apart from that the actual system is not that bad except for some minor issues: sometimes BR can't be started by a player and someone else has to, magic should be displayed in place somehow marked as "not ready" till the cast is over and if a skill is in the list should always be performed (sometimes skill are added too late and they won't stack even tho they are in the list).

Ya'll really should chill out. You are giving the English playerbase a bad name by acting like babies.

A Battle Regimen leader starts the chain, then people follow up and queue their spells and abilities, once that's done.. the leader then clicks a button and the whole thing is down all at once... instead of in FFXI where you have to wait for people to do it at the right second and magic bursting you have to cast it at the right time so that you dont do it too early or too late.

With Battle Regimen it's like: Leader starts> queue up Quick Nock> queue up Skewer II > etc (as how many weaponskills you want> Thunder II > Thunder II> etc (as how many magic bursts you want) > then leader hits ok > then all of the abilities go off in one second.

Actually, everyone that is part of the battle regime can start the attack chain whenever they feel it necessary.

everyone has a right to there opinion bet the jp players on there forum are voicing there's the same way, a closed mouth doesnt get fed, if they didnt want honest feedback from players that are passonate about what they would like to see they shouldnt have gave NA player base the ability to say what we think in these forums, ..... i like seeing what my fellow ffxiv and ff gamers in general think and if we said nothing but "yes SE we know u guys tried so we will kindly pay for a lackluster disapointing game till you get around to maybe thinking about maybe fixing it *shy smile*" i doubt shit would get done....

They are voicing their own opinions for sure. However, they are FAR less whiney and rude about it, they have actual debates. here you have people straight attacking others for their opinions... Reading into the typical NA post, you can easily get "I want FFXI-2" out of it.

How about "no FF14!" then? Because that's what it is. It's crap. Most people want less what it is currently, not more.
