[FEEDBACK] UNSYNCING + DIFFICULTY SCALING

[SaitoHikari]

Well, you ARE in the most populated server in the game.

The whole unsyncing thing probably has a lot more to do with people in less populated servers actually being able to find people to do the content with than anything else. It's not like people actually queue up to do outdated content synch'd, and if new players do and it turns out they don't meet the expectations of veterans, we end up with a dumb forum thread complaining about why most DPS are bad and other similar crap like that.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

DEAR SQUARE-ENIX AND YOSHI P:

I REPRESENT A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE ON BALMUNG WHO HAVE REPEATEDLY EXPRESSED THE FOLLOWING:

1) UNSYNCING IS REPORTEDLY "BREAKING CONTENT" AS MANY PLAYERS CAN QUICKLY ACQUIRE ITEMS BY SIMPLY UNSYNCING. IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED THAT THE UNSYNC FUNCTION EXIST, FOR PLAYERS WHO SIMPLY WANT TO SEE THE GAME OR PUT "TRAINING-WHEELS" ON THE FIGHT, BUT THAT ITEMS/REWARDS/TITLES REMAIN FOR SYNC'D FIGHTS ONLY.

2) THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE A VERY DIFFICULT MODE FOR PLAYERS TO SPEND WEEKS, AND EVEN MONTHS, ASPIRING TO BEAT. GIVE THE GENERAL POPULATION A STORY MODE AND EVEN A HARD MODE BUT KEEP A VERY HARD MODE FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO BE THE FEW WHOM PRIDE THEMSELVES UPON HIGH-SKILL LEVELS, BRAGGING RIGHTS, AND POSSIBLY SPECIALIZED LOOT TO SYMBOLIZE SUCH ACHIEVEMENTS.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK IN TRYING TO FIND A BALANCE IN OUR BELOVED FFXIV.

I don't know who you are, I play on Balmung.

But, no. If you don't like it, don't do it.

Where is the dislike button on this thing?

[SenorMartinez]

Bragging rights have expire eventually. Does it make you mad that people can get their kirin in one day? Yet the world continues to turn, good job on the unsync, I don't need to deal with that old content crap now. Much appreciated

[Nektulos-Tuor]

I actually hope Unsyncing also rewards experience so we can power level new players and old ones.

Its just Ramrodicus, you can ignore him. His schtick is typing in all caps trying to be funny i guess.

He used to do it in shout all the time back when 2.0 launched.

Why didn't I put two and two together. I remember Ramrod's infamous shouts in Mor Dhona before HW dropped. God, it was annoying. I'd take the Naul puns over that any day.

[Xanikk999]

From someone who has typically completed the hardest content in WoW when it was available, why the heck does it matter if people complete obsolete content by overleveling/overgearing it years later?

How does it effect your personal accomplishments and your personal gains? Is your happiness limited by how exclusive your accomplishments are? I would take a hard look at yourself. The majority of players do not care if people can easily power through old content when it becomes obsolete.

I represent a extremely big amount of people from several servers that love this new unsync'd function. This has allowed my FC and several other groups the fun of running things like EX primals and Coil when normally cause of their "being grown ups and having jobs" would not be able to waste countless hours trying to perfect the dance routine needed for such content. I love the fact that you have lot's of gear for those "leets" that currently play the top hard levels and understand that someone being prideful over years old content equipment need to grow, get a life and move out of their parents/grand parents basement. Keep up the good work, but maybe make the raid stuff hard and not just some orchestrated dance that anyone with loads of free time could do, thanks!

[Alistaire]

About the only thing I think shouldn't have been made available for unsyched runs was Savage Second Coil. Those were prestige titles and I think they should have remained that way since that was kind of special content to begin with.

Even without doing those unsynched it's a whole different experience doing them @ lvl 50 with ilv 130 gear than i110s as originally implemented.

As for OP, completely disagree, not that I have to, since there's no way they can "unopen this can of worms" even if they wanted to. Which they shouldn't.

Stuff

Maybe im reading it wrong but you seem to be just taking a shot at raiding altogether.

Also way to stoop to OPs level with the insults.

[IceAngel]

The stuff part was just trying to encompass both Raids and the new EX primals not made to be an afront to that. And I thought that's how they communicated...how are they to understand me if I don't communicate on their level of speech?
