Hunts were a terrible/irresponsible idea

[Moqi]

I wished they worked like leves. It's a very neat idea and I loved hunting in FFXII, but atm it's just another Odin. Rush there, hope you get to see a glimps of the mosnter and hope it's not dead yet. No thank you.

I think most people complaining have outlined they like the hunts and think it's a good idea. Unfortunately it's current incarnation has too many flaws which ultimately have rendered it unplayable for the vast majority of people.

Finding it fine since we re still on the rush of players that came back after a new patch have been released, just give it a few more days

Are Sands of Time being removed from the rewards in a few more days? I must have missed that announcement.

Semantics. It is not "Open World" in the sense that it is not roaming the open world. You induce an instance of the specific chest/mob(s). And a random person walking by can't help you with a leve mob.

yes? and that's exactly what people want. when you're walking around the world map for it to seem more lively populated by players doing things but you're also not having to compete with everyone that just happens to be there.

benefit of both worlds. what exactly is the problem you would have with that system besides semantics?

And you generalizing an entire system based off of 4 experiences in one world out of 60+ is supposed to be more valid?

I'm sorry that your server is full of people like that. I'm sure they didn't materialize out of thin air when Hunts arrived. They were like that well before, and will continue to be like that. So all of us should suffer because Sargatanas is a bad server to play on?

I can name 50 instances in the last two days in Goblin where people DID wait for EVERYONE, LS leaders /shouting in the zone for people to come to the hunt, and to BE IN A PARTY to get full rewards because they die fast, telling people which aetheryte to port to if there was two in the area. I have NEVER felt such a sense of community in this game in the 9 months I have been playing.

So your bad experiences is grounds to put an end to all of this?

This just shows how wildly experiences differ. Do you notice how there aren't many people from Goblin posting on this thread? It's because they are (for the most part) all working together in-game right now and all equally reaping the rewards. I know because I have experienced it for the last two days. I would be right now if I weren't at work. Your server being bad =/= implementing a system that was quite literally asked for by the people in these forums being bad.


HP scaled up on hunts and this system is perfect IMO.

rendered it unplayable for the vast majority of people.

If you think "forum posters" are the vast majority of people......

So I just noticed that the cap for marks is 4000. Am I the only one concerned that the relic quest might involve hunts?

With my luck I get 3 marks a day, could you imagine if you needed 4k marks for an item related to the relic weapon questline and the most you could get is 3 a day.

I hope SE reads these threads and comes up with a solid solution.

Yeah an Odin level shit show every 3 hours, fantastic. Honestly how are you going to argue against anecdotal complaints and then offer anecdotal success stories?

Oh yeah, then I'm sure all these fair weather fans will be still talking about how wonderful the system is. "It's so much better than ATMA farming guys, I swear!"

Stop being such a drama queen. I have every right to vent my concerns with this system. I've been one of the more, shall we say, well spoken people here? I am not reducing my complaints to tirades of abuse at the development team nor am I complaining for the sake of it. I'm expressing concerns that I have every right to share.

And, you know, stop being a hypocrit. You say I'm generalising based on bad experiences but you're doing the exact same thing to me. So you've gotten lucky with the hunts or you've had some occasions where people have waited. I'm so happy for you! Read through this thread and you will see it is clearly the exception. Stop being so delusional.

We told you that this would happen. That putting progression level gear on NM's would create spawn-camping and tag fights. If it hasn't already started, next there will be camping bots. It was a bad idea in the first place to make them open tag instead of force pop.

[odintius]

Honestly thought it be better if they made it a Free company in mind have it were the nm scales how many FC memebers are participting. Then when the party are all in the zone the nm will spawn somewhere in the zone which only your FC can claim giving a decent challenge not this zerg crap we got know. I'm find having open world nm at same time were anyone can help but they need more FC stuff imo.
