End game problem, and say no to vote kick! Plz

I know you're trying to come off as being on the high ground with your condescending tone, but there's a 1000 char limit on posts, and you can only bypass that by posting and hitting Edit to paste in the text over the amount. But keep on teaching the basics of paragraph construction while not realizing why the poster actually posted so many times.

Alright, so maybe I was a bit hasty with my sarcasm. I'm not so small as I wont admit that. However, I stand by the rest of my statement.

but if you use the duty finder to get that new player bonus

FYI.. No one will do that in CM because the "bonus" only applies to XP and CM is a lvl 50 instance. No one is gaining XP from it.

However my opinion on the vote kick feature is that it should be implemented. However you can only use it to kick someone after 3 wipes on the same boss. That way it's not beneficial to vote kick someone for the sake of watching CS but to kick someone that is actually making the group fail. Also after 5 minutes of inactivity from a player a vote should come up to kick them automatically.

I still think SE needs to make it mandatory for people to watch the scenes the first time through, like when you first start the game you have to watch the opening movie the first time.

This will force people to accept the fact that the cutscenes are part of the game. Also anyone who reports someone for watching the scene should be suspended because you know for a fact they grieved someone for it so that is more against the terms than the person who was watching it lol.

I agree with this 100%, its the only way to be 100% sure no one misses any game content on their first playthrough. I'm dreading doing those quest after reading threads like these because my options when I get there are, skip scenes and not know whats going on or why I'm fighting this guy and that guy, or watch the scenes and get left behind to miss fights entirely or whole sections of a dungeon. it's a very unfair position for a new comer to be in and one that NO OTHER final fantasy game in history has forced on players.

If I have to watch that stupid opening scene anytime I reinstall or go play on a friends PC, and have to watch that intro movie everytime I create a new toon or join a new server then why not make it mandatory for all scenes when a first timer is present. True people will still complain but in the end every member of the team still got to experience the same amount of content, and vets still have the option of forming their own parties so they can speed run. Sounds like a win win to me but I am sure someone will nerd rage me next for supporting such a radical idea

So long as watching the cutscene does not count toward inactivity then that would work. In Prae I watched the cutscenes and got pulled through the dungeon. I got locked into cutscene after cutscene pretty much as they ran through and only spent a few minutes moving out of a 30ish minute run. They just kept coming back to back for me and the only choice i would have had was to skip or watch so I did almost nothing but watch cutscenes for the whole dungeon.

This kind of sucked also since I missed half the dungeon essentially. I think that ring should be put on people like when you start an instance for each cutscene. Cant move from the ring till everyone is present.

These Duty finder complaints are hilarious. The answer is simple when it comes to a random match making. MAJORITY RULES. If majority wants to speed run and you don't. TOO BAD. If majority wants to watch cut scenes and you don't. TOO BAD. If you want to be guaranteed to have it your way make your own group of like minded individuals and proceed to do so. Stop being a whinny child.

Vote kick is a much needed feature of this game. I see ppl go afk mid dungeon far top often. They need to impliment anti abuse measures of corset, like no kick until 10 mins in, auto remove or allow kick if a player has not moved/used any skills in a certain time frame, things like that. I have played many games that have a kick feature, it is not abused nearly as often as people would have you believe.

There is no majority in "mandatory" only fair. In fair there is no majority, no opinion, and no one rules. I'll stand behind mandatory scenes because its a fair option. That situation the girl above you described as being pulled from one scene to another and basically watching them for the entire dungeon is just as bad as skipping them all entirely. Why should it be one extreme or the other? Mandatory middle ground, its fair and no one gets reported for childish mess that way. Voicing your opinion on a forum is not childish, reporting a player for not playing the game your way, IS

Game will become F2P before long anyway.

For future reference OP, you can make your initial post and then go back and edit it and add as much as you want. That way you can avoid using all your posts in one thread.

I don't play games like this a whole lot because of things like this. There's always those super gamer nerds who forget this is a game and is supposed to be fun. I don't have time to sit at home and stare at a screen all day. I have a life, job, family, and college to worry about. So obviously if I'm making time for this game its to have fun and I'd like to not be bullied like a middle schooler. I'm making the assumption most of us are adults or soon to be so start acting like it people. If you don't want to watch the cut scenes at the end then go fix something to eat, play another game, go to the bathroom, play with your genitals. Just find something to do for the 30 seconds it takes the newbies to watch the cut scenes. Its not that difficult people.
