Are we really gearchecking speedruns for storymode dungeons now?

[Devostif]

From what ive heard, an upcoming mmo is going to make people basically answer a questioneer about their playstyle (hopefully a psych evaluation as well)what they like doing in an mmo etc. and group them with like minded people. You will still be able to group with friends and quest and do other things even if in different playstyle groups. If implemented correctly this could be one of the best things to happen to mmos in quite awhile. Imagine playing with like minded people and playstyles without having too worry about someone insulting you or judging you for how you play.

Doesn't matter where you go, or who you surround yourself with, there will -always- be haters/insulters simply because there are people out there who get off by being a.holes and d.bags. It's just the way it is.

wow i go in a group and the tank is in full gathering gear or the healer is in crafting gear when asked do you want to change they say excuse me so yes i think a gear check is needed the group was wiped because people don't know how to gear, and where are all those people who said game was easy before launch ?

i don't think it's elitist to ask somebody to at least be reasonably geared to run even a random duty finder if you feel that is wrong then you are just as bad as those i mentioned and have no respect for others because you think the world revolves around you and thank god for blacklist.

Has it really come down to this?? Half darklight and an ifrit weapon isn't enough? Really???


Half of the first dungeon is done with freakin cannons anyway... unreal...

Oh, did you not see the guy on our server demanding Relics for CM runs? apparently CM requires relics... who knew?

BAHAHAHAAHA! This is why I prefer crafted stuff!

I totally agree with you, I'm just trying to be optimistic that it might balance the numbers out little bit. Also hoping that if a person gets enough complaints for obviously not belonging to a certain playstyle, that they will be placed in an appropriate one. I know all too well how some gamers can take a logical and good idea and totally warp it into the exact opposite of what it was meant to be.

i found it sad that people have loose of sight that the point of a game is have fun... and because they need to do something a lot of time it's forced to be boring and not fun... then let's speedrun it.

Playing efficiently, playing well, and playing to the best of my ability is fun to me, as well as to a lot of people in this game. Why is that concept lost on so many people here?

What is it about making a grindy dungeon take even longer that is so fun to you? Why try to do the dungeons to begin with? Is it to get gear? Because that gear makes the dungeon faster, which should be making it less fun for you right?

Do you also tell your boss to pay you less so you have to work harder and longer for the same reward? Or do you want to make as much money as you can in as little time possible?

[Zumi]

The solution is don't join the leaders run if you don't meet their requirements. If they want to gear check people for faster runs that is their choice. If you don't agree don't join that run, use DF or make your own or join another there are a lot of options.

[Melithea]

Speedrunners should make their own groups and stay out of the Duty Finder. Problem solved. I mean, do they seriously expect to get a full party of people in full darklight and relic weapons in a PUG? I think I'm going to stop reading the forums for a while, you guys are making me dread end-game. Not because of the content, but because of the players.

[davidbowie]

speed runners are the first to complain about end game and they have no gil because they spend all their time trying to hit max level, every mmo has them go check out the forums of wow,swtor,guildbores 2 and so on.

i have choose to not push my leveling i still have not broke lv 31 playing other classes i am in no hurry to be the first on any server or the best i wish to enjoy the game i feel no need to be better than anyone only thing i strive for is personal best and when i do party with people i know my class and am prepared and play it well i show courtesy not arrogance and stupidity but then again i know what being mature means and thats something square enix can't teach no matter how many attempts they make with emote missions.
