DEVS - Please allow cutscenes to not even be loaded/auto-skipped

[LordWyrme]

The reason is given as PS3 players and old HDD's on PC's by slower loading times. Speed runners find this to be an issue. Said people get excluded due to dated/slow hardware.

Which makes the people doing the excluding complete and utter failures at human beings, and all around douchebag elitests for choosing the least important thing to exclude someone from a run for, but wait this is the same endgame where all the toxic layers continue to encourage the other toxic players and the new to endgame players to become toxic players by being continuously rude, beligerent, intolerant, and abusive to anyone who doesn't speed-farm x dungeon exactly like they do. Discussion over.

That's just a downside of using a controller which can also be used on pc

Apparently the number of PC users who use controllers is very small, as I have never encountered a "walker" who didn't end up being a PS3 user. It's a very reliable way to identify PS3 users.

I agree, I've had to shout that I'm looking for CM runs (while everyone is running Prae) and it's kinda awkward. But, it's even more awkward when someone invites you to Prae instead and you have to tell them that you can't run it because you're a PS3 user. ._.

Ok, so why can't you run Prae? I'm a PS3 user and I did Prae regularly with no problem and hell, I probably even got out of the cutscenes Faster than at least three or four other party members except for when first timers entered Prae. I just think you need to find people a little less picky about who to run those instances with.

Either you're pulling numbers out of your ass or you've got some magical PS3 that no one else has. The load times on PS3 are retarded and add about a 2 minute overhead in Prae runs.

Ummmm, no they aren't. Not unless you live in the middle of BFE on dial up Internet. My PS3 has yet to give long load times, but I'm also patient enough to tolerate load times since it is just a game. And my PS3 is nearing four years old, maybe the problem isn't with the PS3s entirely since the game was designed with The ps3 customer base in mind.

This. People who aren't on PS3 don't know the pain we go through. It's annoying as all hell and needs a simple fix. Otherwise, we get alienated - however little it may be.

I guess I'm glad I'm not on your servers then, cause I never got alienated due to playing on a PS3, he'll most of the players on my server were elated to have me come do something with them, except for a former FC of elitests, but that was my own faux pas.

Well just know that on Ultros, it is extremely difficult to find a speedrun group willing to accept PS3 users unless you start the group yourself. And when you announce "PS3 players welcome", it gets even more fun because the amount of PC people who will willingly join drops to about zero.

I've never seen anyone say anything about PS3 players ever whether someone slow loads or not. I think we should be able to have a no cutscene option but this whole "PS3 players are being victimized" seems false.

PC player who uses a PS2 controller here. For some reason the game was exponentially more fun since I switched from keyboard. I highly recommend it.

Are you a PS3 player? If so, do you party up with random people in your server to do speedruns? If not, you truly don't know how it is.

Bump it up!!!
