It's about time to add Coil story mode, isn't it ?

Now that has got to be against the forum rules. If you are going to argue a position, at least have a little intellectual integrity. Posting false quotes is a terribly immature way to send your message. I've been very civil with you.

I find that tends to happen when people are losing an argument. I haven't paid attention to it though so I have no opinions myself.

But I naeled it on the head.

Do you require 7 other people to be perfectly in sync with you or know the mechanics in order to beat that boss?

I didn't think so. Sometimes it's not about you. Sometimes it's about the people and internet connections around you that you cannot control.

Isn t this the description of online gaming ? O.o
i mean if you cant do online-game basics...it s maybe not the game that have to change ?

What is this "play for fun" you speak of? I wish I could play for fun instead of getting yelled at for doing something wrong on my first attempt.

...I still have issues with my first group for Titan normal. >_>

I am of the mind that the playerbase, all players, shouldn't be excluded from a great story if they do bother going through the means to get to it and through it. A story shouldn't require people to experience blood and sweat to get to that point. Loot (like High Allagan gear, for example) should require a great deal of time and dedication to obtain. Story and difficulty of content shouldn't be considered synonymous. No loot tied to the story experience - I like the OPs suggestion.

And some of you guys foaming at the mouth fighting against this suggestion - man alive. Cool your doggon heels. GEEEEEZZZZzzzzzz

I am curious about something. When Coil was originally released, how many people played it for the story and just considered the loot a bonus thing?

I'm curious though, how much of a challenge would you want it to be? There has to be a challenge to it, else you can just read a book or watch a movie instead.

I dont think you can define what motives people who run coil only loot or story . I think it s a whole , loot , story , challenge , team work etc....

So true, I and a lot of others still did sky in FFXI after having everything from that place.

As much as it is a privilege to enjoy the end of the main story and its fights. Or the cutscene after a final boss...
earn it , and enjoy.

At first hell no it's about the clear and the loot. I didn't watch t9s CS until after my 7-8 clear.

But a year later when the drops are useless, the story is the main attraction. (Or gaining access to the next coil)
