Players attitudes

I am still fairly new to this game, and I came here from WoW, which IMO, has some of the biggest aholes I have ever seen in a game. but I must say, that I have never seen so much patient and helpful attitudes in any other mmo than here. even when the group wipes multiple times in DF, I have only seen words of encouragement. This is the best game ever.

Great seeing a positive post for a change. Glad you're enjoying the game!

Glad you're enjoying the game. Honestly came into this thread expecting it to see another complaining one, lol. Truthfully, you WILL find players from time to time, (in higher level content in particular), that will be complete *insert derogatory term of your choosing here*, but on average the playerbase in this game is better than most. A word of advice though, keep your head about you and don't get too upset when browsing the forums, as most of the people who visit the forums are the ones who have an opinion about subjects, both good and bad, and will fight tooth and nail to defend their opinion, lol.....

EDIT: Though now that I think about it, even here on the forums people tend to be a bit more civilized when compared to the forums of other games I've played.....

Don't let them fool you. It's all a clever ploy to lure you into a false sense of security!

the more people are in the group the higher the chance they will be assholes.

in 4 man content they will almost every time be friendly. in 8 man content they will be assholes. and in 24 man content they will be... uhm... you want to just turn off the chat sometimes xD

It depends what level you're at I think, the toxicity at level 60 content & PvP is so high, it's no worse than League of Legends toxicity from my personal experience :(

Nah, I'm too busy having to try and solo kill two knots in Void Ark as a MCH to worry about what people in the chat are saying, lol. I'll admit, that I tend to have a bit less patience in 24 player content than I do in 4 and 8 man content, particularly after something's been out for a few weeks. If you catch me complaining in a run, you can usually just ignore it because I'm just venting.....

As someone who only runs BRD in Void Ark... I know this pain all too well.

You will still find people who have negative attitudes but it does seem much more rare in the DF low lvl dungeons now a days. Most everyone is helpful and kind :)

Glad to hear you are enjoying yourself and found yourself some good groups.

Really? I've had the exact opposite experience, actually.

Depends what you join, the extreme farm runs can quickly go downhill after 1 accidental wipe but the 4 man lvl 60 dungeons people tend to be more friendly and chatty.

Yeah, it really does depend, even doing The Hunt or Diadem can lead to some incredible levels of salt (as we call it) when someone does something out of turn or pulls before a group gets there

You may not run into rotten eggs often.

But when you do, you will remember them. Because they tend to be REALLY rotten when they are rotten.

Some of the most vile people I've met in games have been in this game. Luckily they're outnumbered by nice and/or quiet people.

Overall, peeps are pretty chill in this game as long as you're honest about your own ability. There are some bad apples but they are few and far inbetween

It depends on the time and content, I think.

Ravana NM, the other day, on the first try near everyone got killed by overlapping purple circles, leaving me and one tank alive. 3 of the dps began cursing in the chat and force-disconected after the death. I raised my co-healer and we brought everyone up again and finished with only one dps. Sometimes people are just in for a faster run, facerolling on the keyboard to get their tomestones and think they can act whatever way they want. The best way to prevent this is to be an encouraging person yourself too. Kindness can create kindness. Be kind.

Coming from PvP games myself, I found the community overall golden and can count the bad apples I encountered ingame on one hand.

But I am purposely avoiding anything competition or high performance related. From my past online game experiences, that's where the drama lies.

The community in game is usually great. This forum is rather hit and miss, lol
Glad you are enjoying yourself :)

Go read the thread "i so mad cuz i cant deeps without 3rd party tool" - you will slowly realize the toxic disgusting attitudes from WoW are coming here.
