It's only been 2 weeks

People have skipped work to level to 50 and complain about leveling speed. Then they hit 50 and speed run everything and even complain if /gasp you watch a cinematic. I've even seen people say stuff like "looking for x class, must know fight and be geared" wtf? Really? I hope this isn't the crowd that influences the game's direction. I left WoW because of that kind of mentality. Let's play the game for what it is and not change it to MMO's we just left.

They only complain about reach lvl 50 for 1 class/Job?

That laughable because they still need to level the remaining 7 class to lvl 50 before they're actually done.

A lot of players are from WoW and expect the mentality for endgame to be the same...I'm sorry I like to take my time exploring and enjoying the game for what it is :p

A MMO Is what YOU Make of it, stop worrying about what other people do and require, and go out and find friends with the same play-style and mentality as you!

What you are complaining about is dumb, as really, you are expecting the exact same from those people. Expecting them to play how you do, and cater to your gear level, and play style.

The less time you spend caring about what other people are doing you dont agree with and more time finding a decent bunch of people the more fun you will have...

Yeah, sadly, this is a game where you see people saying "No noobs for X" despite being two weeks old. Dumb.

Content locust, it is what they are called. Jumping from any new big named mmo and rushing content, then complains, then moves to the next mmo.

XI was never like this, at least not on the server I played. But the MMO genre is very different now.

For stuff like hard primals you do have to be geared and know the fight in order to actually do well. Well Ifrit hard really isn't that big of a deal , but the other two can be painful if people don't know what they're doing in it. Worse if they can't get past the DPS barriers.

But knowing the fight is as simple as watching a video, I actually wound up in a party with the party leader asking people to watch videos if they could while we waited on filling up the party. Even after that we still went over everything before starting.

What you're seeing is just the people who made it to the milestone of 50 + gear first and are trying to find people who will make what they're doing less stressful.

I ignore the shouts. granted my highest level is currently 26 and I'm not even working on the class I plan on playing most... but one day, one day I'll have an end-game-ready whitemage and they will bow to me.
well.. they won't, because they're most likely on my blacklist.

I do believe you've miscounted. You mean the remaining *18* classes.

Really? Because I'll tell you, I was seeing this kind of thing even as far back as CoP release on Kujata.

These kind of players won't last very long. Just ride the storm and it'll calm down in a few months.

There is very little incentive to level every job though

It's funny how hypocritical this thread is.

The game is two weeks old, but the community isn't. Even if you rolled a new server, many previous 1.0 players rerolled on new servers. This same elitism existed in FFXI and in FFXIV 1.0. So that's really it, the games two weeks old, but the community is 3 years old (just 1.0) or more (ffxi).

ITT:

Bads talking about how bad they are because they can't get the right gear. This happens in every mmo, deal with it or quit.

/sarcasm

Why do people care so much about how others play the game? Some of us can't stand leveling and play for the endgame content, so we rush to the max level and rush to get gear. While others enjoy leveling and don't care for endgame so they take their time.

I see what you're saying but a lot of people are put into a position where they are grouped into pugs to complete their story line quests. At endgame, these pugs can have annoying people like OP mentioned which ruins the experience for those just trying to play casually or complete the quest line.

18 classes technically.

DoH/L are classes too ; ;

There is little incentive for now because we still have not obtained the 2nd Jobs for Gladiator, Pugilist, Marauder, Lancer, Archer, Conjurer, and Thaumaturge yet.

Also, as level cap increase we can expect more cross-skills that are in higher level of the classes which may be very handy for Jobs and classes that will use those cross-skills.

and there is still the arrive of Musketeer and the two jobs that class will have as well.

ya but they're more like professions you do in any other MMO to make things and get rich by selling stuff you get from them.

Same old method of crafting and gathering stuff for leveling them but with the addition of large amount of exp from leves and GC supplies.

I also see what you're saying. To be honest I never ran into that issue while leveling, but if the OP or anybody else wants to watch a cut scene then just watch it, nobody is forcing you to skip it.

Nope. If anything, the DoH/L skills are more complex than the simple combat in the battle classes. DoH/L are full and complete classes with their own stats, own gear, and you need to be thoughtful if you want to be any good. Sure, just like any battle class such as dragoon, you can play while being a complete noob. Crafting is no different. Unless wasting money, ingredients, time, and creating low quality stuff is fine, you need to actually play them.

It's not like any other professions from other MMOs.

This has been the story for every single new MMO that has been released after WoW. At this point it may as well be considered a fact of life in an MMO. Kind of like gold spammers. All you can do is ignore them and move on.

tis game has more elitist jerk community then wow.
Its been 2 week yeah but leveling is fast in game, its not that players rush, its just too easy to level.

If only we could go back to the way it was, the people man the people.

I agree 1,000%.

I don't understand the mentality of rushing to a level cap in the first week. I don't get all the rushing. Its an MMO, you're supposed to take your time and make it last.

You can't enjoy the game if you're rushing to level 50 in a week. Stupid.

You kind of have to have pretty good gear to do some of the stuff, like if your doing titen (hard mode) for example, if your tank is using AF1... hes going to get 1 shot'ed after the heart phase... I can understand why people get mad when certain gear is expected to raid certain encounters, but I also understand wasting peoples time because somebody is trying to tank Titen hard mode in AF1 gear.
