Square Enix PVP Response is as out of touch as their NFT announcement

And I'm too many years into playing MMOs to believe that.

Then you ought to know that if something like cash shop had issues that shit would be fixed within the hour. The clap back needs to be real and standards need to go up. Giving the PVP community scraps and people being grateful for it is wild.

I'm not sure how testing would prevent player from abusing the system and/or cheating. But also taking that aside as someone who took some time to look into those testing procedures in other games like say MtG... Let me be frank no matter how large a test group would be you'll always be under prepared for what will actually happen.

Yes you're right. Devs were out of touch. They did give playerbase way too much credit of trust. They should have treated every single one of us as potential ToS violator and install spyware onto our PC/consoles. That would have solved everything.

Then might as well take pvp out of the game if they cant stop cheating in pvp .

I'm a curious kinda guy, so I'll bite. What's your rank and how many games you got? Helps set the foundation for understanding your point of view in a way.

Isn't rank quite literally irrelevant? Like, the overall sentiment seems to be that match quality/player skill doesn't actually increase as you go up in rank, plus you've got these stories of people literally just spam queueing their way to crystal. Seems quite meaningless to the argument

People have short term memories. Crystal players are absolutely better than bronze players lol. For the most part though yes ranked is kinda whatever. Some people will get hard stuck, but if you're at least decent you'll climb pretty easily.

I take zero pride in being crystal. Honestly. I feel like I got conned and had the cheapest sex there is, probably have some sort of disease. The other day I solo pushed the objective to 83% only contested by a ranged person that was trying to keep their distance and not enter the crystal, both teams were fighting on the speed tracks of Palaistra.

This is a mandatory bump. Hey Square Enix, how about you start listening to your community. :clown:

NICE INVESTMENT SQUARE

More active booting and disqualifying people for using exploits/bugs/cheats, simply stripping ranks off their gameplay and giving them 1 year quarentine from anything Ranked, pve content included.

More harsh take on people abusing or overusing the chat system in CC, especially when it go wrong and they are displeased and not even trying to fight back after to be taken to a harsh course... eg. exclusion from ranked pvp taken in doing such and repeated spam nice job, when it is going bad for the team.
