    The Hunt. Your Response?

    Usually when a topic gains the slightest bit of traction on here, we tend to get an official response. From dungeons to classes, glamour to music, usually if enough people want a response about something, they get it. Yet the extremely heated topic of The Hunt, of which every other thread seems to be about, has apparently not warranted a response. People are discussing (arguing) about all sorts:

    Will there be changes to The Hunt? Or is the system is fine as it is?

    Are SE looking into way to punish those using third party apps? Or is it something they won't/can't do?

    Maybe most importantly of all, are you even reading all of this?

    I don't want this to turn into yet another debate about The Hunt, we have more than enough of those threads for people to post in. I'd just like to see if someone could let us know what is going on regarding the dev team's view on how The Hunt has played out.

    Thank you

    I think the main issue with the lack of communication from SE is that this heated conversing on the forums has mainly happened over the weekend - a period of time when SE goes silent. I'd expect a reply of some sorts soon enough.

    Can you imagine the reading the CM's will have to do when they get back in? lol

    200 pages all about hunts

    (Although I'm not insinuating people shouldn't voice their concern, that is the purpose of these threads (without decimating anyone ofc))

    Well... someone did a thread complaining about people using third party apps to kill hunts faster and not "legally" and mods closed it because it was a "sensible" matter... so i guess they don't give a f*ck about it... one of the greatest contents from this patch killed in less than 3 days... great job.

    Honestly, i'll try to get 500 allied marks, even if i only can get 7 from my daily hunts, and then i'll forget everything about hunts. Great idea, but poor design and a lot of selfish people cheating to get his items and not letting everyone enjoy this content.

    It is a sensible matter. You don't want other people instigating what the program is or where to find it so you close the thread.

    Please take a moment to think about it before lashing out.

    I found one hunt in Mor Dhona by accident. I didn't even know it was a mark until the legion rode up, so I tamahawked it and started the fight. Never lost aggro and got 20 marks.

    The beginning of that story is what I thought hunts would be like. I've been mostly in ST or ArcheAge so I have no idea how the rest is paying off in Hyperion so I can't judge now

    I hope there are some changes to the hunt. I'm sick of instanced content as much as the next man, but there has to be a way to bring meaningful combat to the open world without cheating. This is why I'm leery about the top end FCs. Much like in professional sports, cheating, bots, and pc-only addons cannot be the necessity for future gameplay.

    Copy FFXI like they should have:

    ZNM System
    Voidwatch System
    Walk of Echos
    Abyssea
    BCNM/KSNM/ISNM/ENM/Etc
    Records of Eminence
    Fracture (pull out of the void into the overworld)

    So many ways to do open world content, but of course nothing XI did was right....>.>;

    Better a WoW clone than an FFXI clone. Besides, making something genuinely original is a lot harder than you seem to think.

    With regards to NMs, they should have copied 1.0's system. One of the few things about that game that actually worked.
