Petition for the Devs to listen to actual pvpers

[Moonlite]

Is it just me or does this just come across as I want to create as many opportunities to steam roll others? Anything that allows steam rolling will be removed. This game is the poster child for casual friendly.



PvP popped before exp, it wouldn't be the end of the world. Not sure why people would want tomestones removed? We never had trolling when it was just tomestones.



A rework of all the maps to reduce from 72 to 24 would be nice. When we had 24 you could get pops at night. More maps/game types is work and they seem to have a limited amount for pvp. But if mode was smaller maybe they could have 2 or 3 maps that are the same.



Also you semi new devs/community team almost never come here. We are thee far reaches of the FF community.

Unfortunately, a lot of your changes DID exist, and most were removed shortly after ShB launch. I personally like the 8-man premade, could always queue with FC mates, and never faulted anyone for grouping up with other decent PVP players for a better chance at winning and generally having more fun. The issue is MOST people are solo queue-ers, and being as uncoordinated as Frontlines is, people got steamrolled by the premades, and instead of grouping up themselves, they just asked for them to be gone until they were. Grand Company allegiance was a thing too, but what ended up happening is this "All the good PVPers are on X Grand Company" and a lot of the time even in solo queue the skill of the teams would be heavily skewed. Not to mention at the time of Onsal, a lot of people grouped into the same GC(self included) so we would have a better chance of being on the same team, so that got removed.

Crystal Conflict MAY get a team ranked mode IF it get's popular enough. Problem with last team ranked seasons is there wasn't enough people participating per data center to make it remotely enjoyable. Feast probably won't come back if this new mode explodes. 1v1's "might" work with how the new jobs work, will have to see if it's balanced enough for that.

I personally still want exp and tomes from PVP, I just think the gap between what get when you win, and what you get when you lose, should be widened to make people want to win. There is something to do with the backend duty finder code as to why they couldn't put all the PVP in one big roulette button, but maybe this will happen in the future. Probably more Frontline maps in the future, Rival Wings I think they are still figuring out as it isn't a popular mode.

So the population is pretty thin for team mode. Originally I had hoped when they mentioned cross data centre it would take place at the duty finder level. That clearly isn't in the cards. I wonder if they would pick one data centre for team and everyone would have to slip over to that one for team matches. It would be very clunky system. But I think if all PvPers were region NA. EU, and JPN instead of data centres they would actually have a very healthy population.

Would creating a team based FL and a solo/casual options help ?
