and those who thought FFXI was too hardcore to get a party must have joined when no one was lvling anymore or during abyssea where everyone lvled everything to 90

Maybe because they want to play at their own pace or not deal with other people's bullcrap. I see no point in trying to powerlevel when there isn't anything to do at lv 50.

IMO, if you "don't want to deal with other people's bullcrap" you shouldn't play a MMO. Go play just about ANY other FF title and you won't have to deal with people, but in a MMO, I expect to deal with people and I expect them to deal with me. If they don't like it, there's the door to your single player console onry games, have fun.

Some community? There is no community. No one in this game wants anything to do with anyone else and that's hurting it severely. If you don't want to play a game with other people, don't play MMOs. It's as simple as that. Just like with people who don't like playing games with people from different countries (hello League of Legends community, I'm looking at you) then don't play online. It's. Not. Hard.

Ignorant little pup. That wasn't a stab at the game, it was a stab at the community. All of you little crafters and solo players. YOU people are holding back the people that would like to party up and actually enjoy the game. Instead, you people sit all day and craft or run through and "solo" (which doesn't make sense in a freaking MMO) while the people that want to party have to stand on the side lines waiting for someone, anyone, to join the party. This game is TOO solo friendly and it's failing because of it.

Here is a question . People who love soloing why play an MMORPG?
I play MMO cuz i like to meet people and have fun with friends and like the challenge of forming a group with your friends to take down a monster and feel proud of that .

Now why do you play MMO?

1-The game gets updated,new content etc etc

2-A big world to play and travel too.

If they add more leves to solo to 50. I would be a happy man. :)

i play for the parties, but i also quite enjoy the crafting. if se makes it to where you can craft and gather in parties i will do that also. if crafting was more set up than a solo only class i would be completely fine with it, but since they didn't i sit and craft solo.

There is no arguing with a person like TheVidis in order to argue with someone that person has to have sense . just saying
but i agree with what your saying btw

Massively multiplayer online game

A massively multiplayer online game (also called MMO) is a multiplayer video game which is capable of supporting hundreds or thousands of players simultaneously. By necessity, they are played on the Internet, and feature at least one persistent world. They are, however, not necessarily games played on personal computers. Most of the newer game consoles, including the PSP, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo DSi and Wii can access the Internet and may therefore run MMO games. Additionally, mobile devices and smartphones based on such operating systems as Windows Mobile, Google's Android, and Apple iPhone are seeing an increase in the number of MMO games available.

MMOGs can enable players to cooperate and compete with each other on a large scale, and sometimes to interact meaningfully with people around the world. They include a variety of gameplay types, representing many video game genres.

The only cooperation that I will ask is :

1-Hey,gimme your money! lollll :P

2- I got crystals to sell! Wanna buy some?

3-Teleport? Yes please!

LMAO................................
completely missed the point

if you like updates and just content and nothing else why your even playing every patch content they have released has been completed 2weeks after its release

you mean....like it is in every MMO out there 2 weeks after a patch is released?

its not something unique to 1 game, every mmo has its updated conquered within a few days

Anyhow, good or bad content, it'll be a surprise.
We'll take it and try it, then find a needle in the wool and tell 'em what's wrong and what to keep.

We can't judge things if they don't exist yet. Yes, we can judge speculations, but we may judge what isn't planned (a.K.a talking bullsh*t)
That's why I would wait mid-June, so we can actually touch content by hand and evaluate it.

Anyway, I hate playing alone in an MMO. I mean, what's the fun of doing leves, explore, kill things ALONE!? Tbh, I neither craft alone, but with some players/LS Mates chit-chattin' =D

To answer the OP's question:

Today. Happy?

Well. All but XI. But XI used things like forced wait periods between quest completions that forced you to pace yourself.

When more people played people still didn't party.

Guess what I can do in XI even post Abyssea? I partied in the Dunes, I partied in Qufim, I partied in East Ronfaure [S] I partied in Zeruhn Mines, I partied in Promyvion - Mea and Vahzl. In XIV? I party for Behest and leve link..

People wanted to solo, people wanted to be anti-social, so we got what we got with XIV.

tbh it hasnt changed its been like since launch but the sad fact is its too much solo and no party now unless ur ls is up for it.. for me the draw to ff mmo's is the party aspect of the lvling, if i wanted great soloing i'd play almost all the other mmos

in all honesty the lack of partying has more to do with a lack of people, a lack of content to do with high level charachters, and really when you boil it down, we only have like 6 or 7? jobs

It's communication, and it's a sign that development is moving ahead and that the dev team has some idea of what they want to do to us. After reading through these forums we should all be happy that they don't make every mob in Eorza R9999 with full aggro for a day.

This is true, but at the same time being forced into groups with people who honestly don't want to Party isn't much good either. I'm always happy to party with folk, particularly outside of my Linkshell (I don't like the cliques, I prefer a full on community) but not many respond or are willing to join up - and that tends to be the way people are in most games nowadays.

It is all about the SP, the loot (see the NM hunting since their introduction) and other such things, rather than the experience in a shared world - and thus the game is having to be changed to try and make people group up. Taking the time to get your gear repaired, buying from other players and even standing around chatting is also part of the overall MMO structure in this case - but people don't want that, they want small groups of people they have known for years, killing monsters for loot and not having to deal with other players.

MMORPGs have been losing the MMO, and RPG aspect for years (stacking stats does not an RPG make, if anything pure stat stacking is the anti-thesis of a true Role-playing game) but then every type of game is becoming a full on force of constant 'rewards' and incentives to play a game we would have happily played years ago without the constant carrots in front of us, as they were actually good games.

but see there's the problem. if he runs through shouting for a party and you are crafting and chatting to your linkshell and not him he sees you as solo. when i craft i am in skype with a group or vent with my ls, but people don't see that so automatically think you are the problem. they don't care what you actually are doing they see what they perceive you are doing. you could be trying to hq a material for someone elses gear, but they just see you as solo playing and hate you for it.

are they gonna add using 1 LS at a time
Are they gonna add job abilities
are they gonna add auction house
are they gonna add new jobs
are they gonna add new menu system
are they gonna add quest or mission that make game fun
are they gonna add anything where they game doesnt completely suck

All i want is answers because it seems SE after this patch are going to start charging for Subs and I want to know if the game is going in the right direction or falling to the side and bowing down to WoW and other boring games . Square Enix I want to get something in writing , or if your gonna continue to ask the comunity on how to make this game successful you need to ask the player base who is not going to leave when other MMO's release my 1st mmo was FFXI and i love everything up till the point of abyssea . Please if u do add dungeons Make them HARD x4 Make alliances able to go in make it linkshell oriented where it MEANS something to belong to Linkshell .Not how it is now where ppl just bounce from ls to ls looking out for them selves . please add a benefit to doing NM/HNM gear that is Very good and last longer then 5 lvls .

Also Stop making gear half and half i would be wearing pants with 2 DD stats and about 4-5 harvesting or botany stats i dont need it and dont like it . This might be a rant of Wall of Text but i am tired of rumors and speculation of whats coming and people making treads that dont mean anything like saying good bye to tanaka to be honest its not like he not gonna make more money its not like they took everything from him so please stop . Forums were made to share opinions and thoughts i understand , but when dealing with a game that is unfinished and on the verge of going from free to play to pay to play and everyone should be making post or posting on people threads where it would or make game better .

Alot of people would not be playing this game if we dont find a solution to what is happening now and fix the "I beat everything is less than a month " content make us work for it make us get frustrated , mad , happy , sad , excited give us the feeling we accomplished something in your game

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this was just what was on my mind and if you read it my grammar isnt A+ more like D-- but if you agree thank you if you do not thank you for reading and please state why you dont want any of this to happen

cant handle the truth obviously

whenever anyone bashes the game, everyone jumps on the bandwagon
and anyone who doesnt apperently has blind faith

but isnt it called blind hate what everyone is doing?

also, after reading most of the haters posts in here, you see them doing it in EVERY thread they post in
however alot of us who you called blind, have our greivances too and we take it out in way more constructive ways

and we dont sit there and insult the other side of the arguement nonstop like you seem to love to do

Thevedis is just mad that not everyone loves the game as much as she/he and looks down upon those that don't have as many r50s. Hun, it's time to step away from the game. You might just be losing your mind.
