Real Patch Notes

[Jennestia]

One thing I do not like. If you kill/defeat ifrit with everyone belonging to the same company, the rewards are increased. The population on servers is already low enough and now my LS will prolly shun me if I choose a wrong GC. This bothers me.

That would be a player problem and not a problem with the decision to make GC specific runs yield more. They're thinking long term.

Agreed.

In the long term it will do even more damage, because PS3 players that might not know this therefore as soon as they can, possibly with no linkshell, and choose a GC they want only to not get accepted to runs because they chose the wrong company.

We need clarification before the patch to ensure that we can still get the gear with differant GCs, just gil/DM/seals doesnt matter as much.

They are both the same problem. Even if there were 1 million players, you still segregate based on GC and effectively divide the population due to extreme gear/loot rewards. It may still be easier to get a group granted but the segregation is still there. It is just worse in the current situation where we have less players.
