    Sometimes i think this game is made for solo players. I lost my hope on this game as MMO not only cause of this CT restriction but in general.

    You came to the conclusion that the game is made for solo players because of grouped content? Interesting...

    Anyone would come to the conclusion after playing this game for a few hours - you know, the forced solo storylines in almost every other MMO you could actually be with friends? Even 1.x had a few "get solo!" but you were still able to help your friend.

    Even Yoshi has said he wants to design this game so solo players and players who like to group have "options" - well, where's our option to go into CT with our full group if we chose to do this content? I know you'll defend anything SE does, but did you really think about the reason people are upset even if progressive wise this content does nothing for coil beaters/farmers? It's more about the fact the game forces you to be solo more than it does to actually be grouped and even then the forced group is 99% of the time 4 man.

    A handful of quests that you do by yourself dictates the entire game being single player? Weird.

    Your option to go into CT with your full group will come after 2.1's release, just like it's been stated by SE. I think it's funny how I'm apparently defending everything SE does, when infact I'm just not getting mad over information that was never stated in the first place not happening the way I expected it to.

    But whatever, stay mad at nothing. That's always helpful.

    'Stay mad', you can't really peg someone's emotion through typing.

    over information that was never stated in the first place
    Oh, also I'd like to see where SE stated that despite any other content you can make premade parties for, CT was going to be different just because it's 24. I mean, the DF lets you go in with a premade setup all the time, where did they say in all the times the past year they mentioned CT that this particular one would work differently?

    Since as far as they stated they said you'd go in with 24 people and that each "team" will split up and come together at certain points, nothing about 8 premade, 16 random people.

    Burden of proof lies on you. SE has always just stated that CT will be 24-man content. They have never said that we'd be able to form 3 full parties and enter just like that. If you can prove me wrong on this, do so. Until then, I'm going to be in the mindset that everyone is just getting worked up over absolutely nothing, like always.

    Could you stop being a blind fanboy for once? You are just as ridiculous as the people who get mad over grass, just batting for the other team.

    Can someone please tell me where this is stated? I see that it's implied by Yoshi's "will not be available at 2.1 launch", but I'd be interested in seeing any more information on the subject. Considering that the logical assumption I'm sure myself and many other people made was that full alliance pre-mades would be allowed from the start, as it stands it's a frustrating move to myself a lot of other players.

    It was assumed that you could only take up to 8 people because Yoshi said in several live letters you queue with up to 8 and get matched with 2 other other groups.

    I suppose I may have missed that. I'm still not sure why this inability to bring a full alliance is the case though.
