Booing when Coil2 Nerf was announced

[VahnValbosce]

No, you're creating a better game for it. Why, exactly, is artificial difficulty a good thing? Why, exactly, is tying raid progress to the LEAST CAPABLE MEMBER, a good thing?

YOUR SOLUTION: Nerf the entire content to help that 1 person progress!!!

MY SOLUTION: You're holding back our raid progression, we're replacing you for someone else who can clear it or actually cares about clearing it. /kick



P.S. Just talking about how content should get nerfed like this is making me want to quit the game already lol... imagine how many would quit if the entire game got easier.

Ok. Now I'm Done. Bye.

You must have a lot of friends.

You must have a lot of friends.

How many friends will you have in game when this game becomes boring and people quit left and right because they're tired of easy content?

You assume challenging content TEARS people apart. LOL...

Challenging Content Brings people TOGETHER more than it tears people apart. That is the point of an MMO, to work together WITH people to overcome a challenge.


OK!!! I must leave this section of the forums before my head explodes from all the non-sense.

It surely brings people together. All those PF parties asking for fresh players fill the screen, doesn't it? No, wait, they're filling with nothing but i105+ ONLY NO MYTH MESSAGE 1 SHOT ONLY NO N00BS. It's also fairly telling that I never see those parties anywhere near filled either, it's also just 3 players sitting there for hours on end. You're being childish and unreasonable, no one is going to quit the game over any of this.

Nonsense doesn't need to be hyphenated.

My coil group for one of my alts has players of all different gaming backgrounds and skill. We just formed around 2.3, and we're on t8 right now and feeling pretty good about it. There are a couple of people in the group who take a lot longer to pick up mechanics than the rest of us. If we'd kicked them early on or passed over them because of this, we would have missed out on building a couple of great friendships that have enriched my time with this game.

Punishing people because of poorly designed content is asinine. There's a reason people also "boo'd" when they found out that FCoB was designed by the same person who made Titan and SCoB.

(Moved this from my other post because you don't seem to actually pay attention to posts once they're a page back. You ignored mine from like 4 pages ago.)

People are quitting because CURRENT content is easy and new content comes in too slowly. There's not enough horizontal progression to keep the players with significantly more time and more drive to quickly plow through content. If you think more people are quitting because old content is eased up in difficulty, you are wrong.

The same things that make SCoB too easy for the hardcore crowd could be fixed in ways that make them more manageable for people who aren't necessarily super amazing at twitch mechanics or multitasking.

Your "solution" is childish at best. Much like your attitude. Things can be challenging without being artificial difficulty, a concept you seem unable to grasp. The current state of Coil is pure artificial difficulty, it relies on nothing challenging. You just said it yourself, the only challenging part is hoping another party member doesn't cause any of a myriad of insta-wipe moves to trigger.

Now I know the truth. Regular Players get cornered into the "Elitist" category, simply because they can clear content and others cannot.

You call my attitude childish, but you've yet to come up with sound arguments, and just result in name-calling. I run an FC and people APPRECIATE the things I do for them and we talk on teamspeak and joke around together.

YOU are the one calling ME an elitist.
YOU are the one angry at the 1 player who can't progress, instead of realizing that its their problem that THEY need to fix, you want to NERF content for the 7 other players in the group.
YOU are the one assuming things about me, such as I have "No Friends" or that I'm socially awkward and a SLEW of other STEREOTYPES.

It's honestly all hog-wash and blind sighted emotional rhetoric.
