Servers in Danger of Crashing RIGHT NOW!

[DkDerek]

I don't even understand why this is up for debate. I've come to the conclusion that the engineers working at SE are like, first years. Literally everything that is implemented into this game, is horrible. It's 2015, and I still can't send tells to people inside a duty. Other games are bringing people on different servers together, while I can't even communicate with someone in a duty Lol.

And really, 4 bosses for the end game. Even WoW gives at least 10 per raid tier.

We get 4.

Yes and they get 0 dungeons, twitter integration and garrison s***.

Yes, because WoW puts ALL of their current focus into their raids, neglecting everything else. FF spreads out their content resources over many aspects of endgame, not just raids for shinies. Try finding a story close to HW's caliber in WoW's current expansion, WoD. Every game company has their strengths and weaknesses. I could literally point out a weak point in every MMO I've ever played.

If I recall, SE actually does have the capability to allow /tells in dungeons if they wanted to. There was a big debate about this during the ARR release. I believe SE's stance was they didn't want people harassing fellow players in /tells during or after the dungeon for subpar play, or something of the like. I don't agree with that, as you can still do that in party, but it sounds like a stance SE would take. They do everything they can to ensure this game has a friendly environment.

P.S. I believe something like 6% of people cleared up to Final Coil in ARR before HW came out, or something of the like. So they'd be using a lion's share of their resources to design extensive raids for 6-10% of the population. I'm a fan of raiding/challenges, but this is not that smart from a business perspective.

Hey that's mean, they also have great major patches (as a dev called it) that include things that everybody wanted like selfies and twitter. Here is an "interview" with a dev about one of their patches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQR9XWGFkj4

Better than the actual interviews. There was one recently which has the players in an uproar. Anyway, I was simply pointing out to certain players that they don't know how good they have it here right now. You are playing probably the only current sub MMO among a saturated market of F2p and lackluster MMOs. Some of these MMOs are decent, but here you are given new QUALITY content every 3 months. A substantial chunk of it at that. There are some people in other MMOs who wait a year for new content. There are some people who have to pay real $ in the cash shop to buy items that will give them an ADVANTAGE over other players. Cash shop here is purely cosmetic. All the complaining lately on the forums... I understand people often complain about something they are passionate about but please... take a step back and breath. Think of the great game you are currently playing.

I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting progress in the sphere of MMOs though. Yeah this is nice and it looks nice, but did they try to improve MMO gaming as a whole where they could? That's what millions of dollars are invested into an mmo for, isn't it? To make something better than the other guys and make theirs look like old news?
Hardware is improving all the time, and it's certainly improved since the time of WOW, but we're being restricted to WOW tier stuff by way of hardware some how? How does that make any sense?
