Leaving the game

[SarcasmMisser]

I just wish they added some truly extreme solo content. I would LOOOOOVE to see the tears of these "great" players who think regen isn't MP ineffecient when they realize they're only skill was getting 7 others who weren't completely retarded to static with them. Plus, it gives the added benefit of anyone being on a 24/48 shift to actually have some challenging content with endgame rewards.

You're berating people for enjoying hard teamwork in a game where difficulty is always a team effort, what's next you call footballers bad for depending on their teammates? I play hard single player games when I want hard single player stuff, you should too.

I have no trouble accepting difficulty as is in any game, unlike people here who continually walk into team-based content and pout when they actually have to depend on others.

So many people here need to just accept the game isn't for them and move on.

Did I just read someone complaining about this game being too difficult? Wait for half a year and the content will be nerfed so you can do it. Heck, you can even farm gil to get others to do all content except the latest raid tier FOR you so you do not even have to actually play this game.

You do not have to have all the best stuff the very moment it is released. End game raids shall be exclusive for a while for the very best to prove that they are the very best. I am not elitistic, but I think people who want rewarding challenges shall get rewarding challenges and that people who want easy stuff that gives them rewards shall get that content. Currently this game offers both which I find wonderful! I do not want to change that.

This I agree with... It would make some people face the facts that they are relying on their team mates way more than they should and make them evolve as playersand also learn to appreciate their team more. Alot of people seem to think that their team should be atleast as good as them when in reality one shall think that they should atleast be as good as their team.

I don't think the team reliance would be so bad if things hadn't devolved into a hub game, where it's difficult to really meet and get to know other players.

That is what the group content grind used to provide... you know... a community. This game seems to have the static cliques that have formed... and players leveling up are in DF... and finding a new group really isn't so easy... especially for players that have limited play time.

There's PF... but without meeting the iLev requirements, you won't get in... so to get those it's lots of grinding tokens... and luck in the DF. It's kind of difficult to transition from the 80 percent hub game to the 10 percent team based game =/

Levi, Coil and Animus. You have 3 choices for weapon progression.

Levi and coil are ruined by echo and fast gear progression. If you try to PF/DF it there will be mostly i90+ people who have no clue how to play their class, because they started playing just a month ago and zerged everything up until. In 2.1 4-player dungeons were harder, hm primals were even harder, ex primals - very hard. People had to learn their class and dodging step by step, not like now.

If you've beat hard content in his 95% of the time it's cause you have a guide or the fight memorized. That's not good gaming. Like I said I play call of duty, hop on that with me if you think you're good at video games. You'll quit after two rounds. Memorizing exactly when and where to move is something you had to do in Mario, it shouldn't be something you have to do in a game as good as ffxiv.

i dont know why people post on the forums there leaving no one gives a hoot about them leaving lol

Some of us aren't assholes as rare as that is in this type of game. I've been running t5 since I'm super behind and can tank to twisters flawlessly. Using DF all I see is people IN DF quitting after 1 run while talking trash to everyone in the party. Like we dont know why theyre in DF. Its almost worse when youre not at fault, just wait on the whiny bitch to quit. Lot of angry basement dwellers ruin the game for everyone else

[QUOTE=HeroSamson;2050802]I come to conclusion that you guys are no gamers but spoiled too used to getting what you want you keep begging whining till they break down and give you it for free with out hurdles to jump, then the next thing they make you'll cry again and next the cry again.

because you want it handed to you, like I said no hurdles to jump over for your gear or items.

Sorry bud, some of us were gaming while you were still a twinkle in your mums eye. An old rpg 40hrs to beat, another 40 to beat it down hard. I've been in t5 at least 15hrs, prolly a good 12 of that was talking or blaming people. I've never had 1 boss take me 15 hrs, even before mr happy guides or even written guides. In metal gear solid there was a boss you had to disconnect your controller so he couldn't read your mind. There was never ever a guide for that youngster

And everyone that says its not hard, yeah going to work everyday and being a contributing member of society is hard, being a fuckstick in a video game thinking you're good cause it's your life, yeah that really isn't hard

I call BS.
If you can memorize a map, where shit spawns, and where people are going to be camping you, you can memorize "hey, this boss always does this mechanic that kills me after x move" and not die.

If you're remotely "good" at a video game, memorizing the boss fight should be the least of your concerns, especially when knowledge on basically every single one of them is easily accessible.
I can spend 5-10 minutes learning a fight and not repeatedly die to the same exact thing.
The only legitimate concern in your entire post is depending on 7 other people.
THAT part sucks and at that point its not you holding everyone back.
"I can dodge an extremely predictable attack," does not translate to "I can dodge an extremely predictable attack only because I play this game 21 hours a day and I'm awesome at life because of it."

Even without a guide, how can you NOT notice that y move comes after x move and still get hit repeatedly? That's a fundamental of gaming.

EDIT: MGS will tell you to unplug the controller if you use the Codec. It tells you in the game. -_-

"I can dodge an extremely predictable attack only because I play this game 21 hours a day and I'm awesome at life because of it."

I have a bumper sticker on my car that has this exact quote on it.
