The Hunt - a game breaking feature

[arctic]

I've already cancelled my sub.

I cannot stand to see the community acting this way day in and day out in each zone I am in. And it is always... ALWAYS... the same. Someone pulled something before others showed up and the next 30 minutes is nothing but name calling and whatnot.

That's such an extreme case of sensitive - I sincerely hope you never accidentally find yourself in the middle of a competition or confrontation.

People who are against this, ask yourselves:
Do you really want to play a game in such an easy way as to be able to obtain literally everything you need to get to the endgame content without using any skill? You don't need any kind of playing skill to zerg down a mob.

That's so elitist and short sighted. First off, it's still not Coil gear. If you're really a min/maxer elitist then you shouldn't feel threatened by the same ilevel gear since the stats still aren't as good. Not everyone can get coil gear, and they've already said these hunts have been introduced to help gear the community for the next wave of content.

The community is getting geared, granted there might have been some short shortsightedness on how far people are willing to take trolling, and how self entitled people are for things they did not find. But that will be resolved with time.

You can't get upset that people are getting gear. That's just ridiculous. No game (aside from guild wars 2, probably) keeps the same high-end gear through out the game. I remember working my butt off for Dark Light gear, now it's an instance trash drop. Should I quit because my high-end gear is getting less shiny because people can get equivalent ilevel gear with not as good stats? If people get stuck on old content because they can't get the gear then people will quit, then who will you flaunt your high level gear to? That really will be the death of the community and the game.

How far are you guys willing to take these complaints? You aren't required to participate and the instances are all still there, they haven't gone anywhere. How much is this really hurting you aside from your - I dunno ... warped pride? If everyone really is doing hunts and you can't find anyone to not do hunts with then, maybe it's just you with a problem?

I don't really expect everyone to have same level of indifference that I do towards hunts, but do have trouble understanding how this is "the one thing" that is generating so much drama and is "ruining everything" and anything related to this game for players.
