Combat GC restrictions in frontlines

Oh yes because everyone is here since beta and everyone reads the forums. Nonsense.

You know if the PVP menus in game weren't organized by Grand Company and achievements and everything else I might agree. However, even in game, never reading interviews or forums or reading quest texts, a rational person would notice the tie. That doesnt make it right, or anything of the sort. But it is obvious.

I give up on you.

You do realize all I am trying to say is, instead of asking for them to change something that has been worked on for a long time and clearly planned to work this way, to ask them to make it "user friendly" for people to swap GC to play with friends. Its much easier to allow that than to change the very foundations of what they planned frontlines to be. Letting rank transfer makes sense and shouldnt be as much work as redoing everything about frontlines.

Eh... That's not exactly a strong argument.

If you're from the past and cannot keep up to date on something you enjoy, there is no real way of knowing this was coming. The skills menu indicates nothing, nor do achievements. Those are just there for completionist to suffer with. Quests and the sort even give the exact opposite impression; the whole "And now the Grand Companies are fighting again" is literally coming out of the blue with 2.3. It's had no build up in previous updates. Nothing in Wolves' Den indicates such a change, if anything it gives the opposite impression as well; it isn't Grand Company v Grand Company.

That said, it's 2014. Seriously. Who the hell isn't able to keep up to date on this kind of stuff? You'd have to be damned casual not to have been looking for Frontlines news where ever you could, and if that's the case, I doubt you care about switching Grand Company and losing your does-nothing Rank. You don't even need every single person to keep up to date on this sort of stuff. None of my FC/Friends do, I've literally organized it so we're all in the same Grand Company for Frontlines since before we started PvPing. I completely agree with you, I have no idea why this is such a surprise for some many here.
