Can't make a full premade for Crystal Tower...

[Zfz]

Our FC was talking about arranging for Server First or even World First on CT (not that it really means much, when you're organizing teams that have most of BC on farm to do CT...) and then this hit us. :3

Not being able to arrange a full FC raid is just...sad...I suppose Square Enix wanted premades to mix in with solo queuers to average out the alliance standards.

CT should be full FC! Thats why FC exists anyway, to play with your friends!

[Taruranto]

I honestly can't tell what it worse, SE not managing to have an alliance system by now or people defending this.

[Edewen]

oh well. had a good run for me. but my auto renewal is shut down until this reverses, and i dont mean 3 months later in 2.2. CT was my light at the end of the tunnel. Hello trainwreck

I honestly, really really hope that they pull a "due to player feedback, we have pulled Crystal Tower from the 2.1 patch in order to address the need to pre-make groups of 24. This will be re-introduced when the feature is available, which is set for 2.4"

Surely it's what everyone wants.

I'm still shocked why so many people have such a phobia to play alongside unknown and new players....

Have you been through the duty finder lately? Its a nightmare! I dont want to be forced to play with 16 unknown people. Pugs are vile, I cant communicate with them on voice chat and what happens when kiddies rage and quit? Or play stupid just for some trolling fun? Can you imagine the fights over gear? Its a nightmare. Games like WoW give you the option to do this, but you aren't forced to pug with randoms if you don't want. And that's the main point. SE is FORCING us to random pug it. And its wrong on so many levels.

This is the worst idea ever!

We want to play with ou friends! Thats why FC exists!

If it stay this way, we will just queue up an leave until our 3 PT are finally together in the CT.

i wonder if that is a wise decission to make.
since there is a penalty awaiting you for leaving.

i'd just take CT for what it is and enjoy it, no matter if full FC alliance or not.

yea, SE could have done a better job, but look at it from a point of CT being part of the DF.
this way it's easier for the DF server to grab players.
if everyone is going with their FC alot of the less fortunate players will be left out needing to wait for the DF to build groups forever.

just look at how long it takes to build just one group using the DF, now imagine 3 groups.

yup, "if I can't do it with my FC, noone can! waaaawwaaaahh"

[Orophin]

I'm personally not in a FC that can field a whole alliance for CT, but I'm still disappointed that whatever 8 man group I end up with is going to be matched up with 16 other completely random people. There are other people on my own local server I'd rather group with than some of the asshats I've heard about afk'ing in CM and stuff.

no please - explain it to me.

how ON EARTH can it be more complicated and more time consuming to program an alliance feature while programming the whole freaking Crystal Tower?
