Instanced Raids Unveiled!

[Rentahamster]

I want a challenge because of challenging content, not because of a cap that forces my level 50 PGL to run through content as a level 30.

Which is why the cap is there, because the content is designed to be played by rank 25 characters, specifically, and be challenging to those players. You can't have the same battle content be challenging to both low and high rank players at the same time.

Especially if I want to run through something just for fun's sake.

There's the problem of players using their rank 50 characters to blaze through the dungeons to equip their rank 30 classes, instead of actually earning those items the normal way.

A completely different 3D design hardly equates to a "minuscle" difference. Sorry to burst another big bubble.

That's fine that you think so, but I think think they look almost exactly the same.

Wrong. You are a trolling partisan if ever there was one. Anytime someone says something false about this game there you correct it

Fixed it for you.

That's fine that you think so, but I think think they look almost exactly the same.

And that's why you need thicker glasses. There's no environment in the currently open dungeons that looks even remotely like that. The 3D setup of the area is completely different.

I guess he/she is talking about those glitched videos from awhile back. Honestly, we dont know if they are taking so long because they redid alot of the internal structure of the dungeons as well.

You're basing this on what? Do you have a link?

I'm basing it off personally going there and looking, cant post link though mods don't like it.

I'll laugh my ass off if they did rebuild it, but judging from the Grid one not a single thing has changed, it just got populated with mobs. And I'm assuming the same for the Coerthas. If in 6 months all they can do is 2 dungeons and get it delayed, i doubt they did much rebuilding, otherwise they'd also make new mob.

If he enjoys it, let him. Redesigns will come since the rest of the community pushes hard for it ^^

He's kinda got a point though, since they arent really "copy paste" as some are saying, and they do have different internal structures and set pieces than other dungeons. Plus they are instanced, so this extra time could've been used to improve the structure or add additional graphic touches.

EDIT: They dont really need to make new enemies, just populate them with enemies that arent widely seen at those ranks. Now the boss enemy should be something large/fairly different looking than a normal enemy. Even if its a really big drake, it should have a different skin texture or extra additions to the model since they use that polygon shaving tech.

I went to an optician the other week, and it appears I have perfect vision!

Of course I do, but reality tends to make trolls mad.

[Teknoman]

I'm all for redesigns, but only for places that actually need them: Most of the overworld areas.

Can easy blame some trolls that continue to say "same dugeons retextured", when it's obviously not true to anyone that has eyes. The environments shown in the areas have no equivalent in the current dungeons.

And if you feel underwhelmed for two low resolution sneak peek pictures, then it's self-inflicted, as someone already said.

Well the first one looks like mun tuy cellars, the second one looks rehashed of something else we've seen a few dozen times elsewhere. The enemies in that preview are re-skinned monsters of what little variety already exists in world. I'm not complaining, i'm sharing with you some facts based on what was shown.

Some of us who are underwhelmed aren't dismissing the entire system. We're just not excited based on what's been shown thus far. Each preview is designed to inform, and sell. It's certainly attempted to inform, but I'm definitely not sold. When you have an empty canvas before you, you have every opportunity to paint the perfect picture. The fact is, what's been revealed is either an indication of rehashed content, or the team in charge of putting together previews are failing to do their jobs. The concept excites me, that preview doesn't.

don't agree? deal.
