I have Mahjong Enthusiast, but not Mahjong Master (getting there), and I have disagreed with almost every decision Square has made for the last several years, including decisions regarding Doman...
Other games (Battlerite is the one on my mind) leave the "casual" and "ranked" queues separate, but track rating in each mode separately, and allow players to be matched cross-queue. When a team of...
I'm hopeful that something will be done soon, because even casual healers are starting to realize that their role is defective and optional. I've had way too many dungeon runs recently where the...
The rating-based achievements are awesome—the titles mean a lot more if you have to actually be exceptional to wear them.
I keep going back and forth on hints. It seems weird that XIV is missing a lot of common assists—highlighting tile copies on mouseover, wait previews, furiten warnings that appear before you own...
I would rather not play than play with bots; it would be pretty frustrating to get pulled into an AI game without opting in explicitly.
"When I play, the number goes up and that makes my brain produce the good chemicals"
I wonder if "instantly enter Hypercharge" would be too strong (or too weak) of an effect for Analysis+Chainsaw. The inability to "pool" Heat makes fast on-demand Wildfires pretty unreliable—providing...
Click on them and kill them. The enemy team has no tank, so their melees will have to take some heat when stepping up, creating kill opportunities, or leave the ranged to get dived and instantly...
Maybe so. I don't think the system should ever differentiate between 2nd and 3rd place, though, except maybe in extreme cases; that's how you get 2nd and 3rd slapfighting each other forever,...
I think removing the reward completely would dramatically cut Frontlines participation, and since you need 72 players to start a game, things could be very bad if the population takes even a modest...
15 seconds per discard or call seems pretty excessive, and often leads to games running extremely long, even when you compare it to typical over-the-table play.
Most digital clients use a shorter...
I've been playing mostly BRD, and the thing that frustrates me most about Purgation is its range. I wish I had a tool that could nuke and disable the enemy backline while standing in my own team's...
Before responding to this thread, please consider that OP provably lies about their winrate and has abandoned more games than most players have entered. They should not be trusted and are not...
Why is there a 30 second wait time at the start of every match? You can't discuss strategy in any detail, and you can't job change like in Frontlines; when you add the intro animations and the...
164 wins, 100 losses, 62%. Totally checks out. /s
Total speculation: It's possible that this was done to mitigate against third-party tools. There are addons that show you who's targeting you, which would be a substantial advantage (preemptively...
I really hope they tighten this up for next season. Hand out rewards however you want (as long as it doesn't become the giant mess that is Frontline Roulette), but the matchmaker needs to be able to...
I don't want this to come off like a taunt, since you're clearly having an awful time, but the way you talk about your teams and your sessions makes your low winrate seem completely plausible. If...
I don't know if combo consolidation is ever going to happen—no one posting here is likely to care too much about low-level combat feel, but I can see new players being pretty whelmed if jobs like PLD...
This system works because 5 human players are (generally) more engaging to fight than one giant boss with a completely scripted timeline. I don't think I'd ever want to see PvE kits stripped to this...
I think some people have been using achievements to get a rough estimate, but if you've played any Feast (or the Fold, god) in the past, it'll be inaccurate. I wish they'd add full stats to your PvP...
I've started watching enemy MCHs for Bioblaster Ready; it's depressing how much you can restrict them just by being aware of the tool combo. Unless they can sneak out of objective fights for a duel,...
I do not think I'm good—I'm a middling BRD at best. I miss my teammates with LB constantly, freak out and panic when trying to target people in crowded point fights, and sink like 50 silences into...
This is used to coordinate a surprise target switch, so that the target being bursted doesn't recognize they're in danger until it's too late—preventing them from pulling away or using defensive...
