Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

^ Sorry I'm not getting banned for that. >_>;

And i seriously hoped that we will get rid of Trolls as soon as this Game is P2P. There bursts my Bubble.

I see nothing trolling about that. My cousin quit very quickly because the current population is either already past leveling, or only care for power leveling. That's not a good sign in an MMO when power leveling beats out normal grinding or leveling in a party. Even if the population is low, level syncing is still a good idea.

I swear the only people against it are those who hate leveling in MMORPGs or hate being social and partying with people.

I don't know i cant say anything about pling its in every MMO one way or another. and doing something about it now would just kinda be redundent cause probably (longshot) 70% to higher already have 2 or more 50s so what would really be the point. and yes i know " what about the ps3 ppl who will join" well its a double edge sword with them unfortunatly the way i look at it. not by pling but like this ff14 has had a rough start i know i hated it when it first came out and so did alot off ppl and all the websites and game shows and yuotube bloggers saying that it still is bad. which causes the game to look bad and the potential ps3 player might not even bother to get thew game.so to them they are gonna kinda be left behind yes because they might not have ppl to play with as much with all the ppl with 50s. but also i will also most likly wrong and alot will join. and they just probably pl to 50 super fast. And it doesnt take much effort to see whos been pled and doesnt know how to play theiir job so just boot them and tell them to learn how to play.

You know, all this PL problems could easily be fixed if the Devs are willing to move away from monster-grind-based progression and switched to quest based progression. It would also alleviate lots of other problems, and also seriously expand on the lore of each place. Win-Win, but it will take lots of time to think out and implement quest series.

Not sure if the playerbase is willing to have a core mechanic change like that though.

Then you didnt play many MMO's at all. I played my first MMO mid 90's and FFXI wasnt the first MMO with Levelsync-System and it wasnt the first MMO which failed at it and made people lazy, so they would stay in the beginner-Zones until the hit the Cap. Thats is very Commen in MMO's with Levelsync-System. "Your Cousin" is guessing out of his personal opinion that FFXIV is in NEED of Levelsync instead of PL. PL AND Levelsync are both Systems which are called "Easy Mode". You swear people which are against it hate leveling and hate beeing social and hate partying with people? Actually i can tell you its the oposite.

i LOVE leveling or why do i have all Classes at 50? Most of them were 50 before PL took Place.
i LOVE partying with other People and experience different Zones/different Mobs and not the same Shit over and over again like "your cousin".

He is complaining about PL-System but want Levelsync? For some People, like me, both Systems are Crap. I dont give a shit about Systems which bring me to the Top in about 1-2 Weeks.

I have actually, and not one of them actually had an exp system where you can actively powerlevel people because many required you to not only be within 2-4 levels of the highest person, they also required you to actively contribute to the battle. (Very typical of Korean and Japanese MMOs.)

Most of them were 50 before PL took Place.

Given your attitude, I'm pretty sure you're one of the Necro-All-50s players, since you know, "Level-sync" is easy mode and all.

God.. reading is hard in this Forum, isnt it? i NEVER said a lot of other MMO's have a PL-System, i said other MMO's have LEVELSYNC System. Whats wrong with People and understanding a simple Sentence? That you are blind you proved allready in the other Thread. But happening twice? meh lol

And the System you described was the actual System in FFXI, before Level-Sync took Place. Good Job you figured how the System have to be! Oh wait.. you actually dont want a System like that.. you want Levelsync. lol

Given your attitude, I'm pretty sure you're one of the Necro-All-50s players, since you know, "Level-sync" is easy mode and all.

What? lol

Of course i know that Level-sync is Easy Mode. FFXI was the best example for it and there are a couple more MMO's which had Systems similiar to Levelsync which also were a fail, since they made leveling way to easy. Same goes for PL-System. It took me 2 Month to get my first Class to 50, with PL-System it took me 4 Days to get my last up to 50. /Irony on "No thats of course not Easy mode" /Irony off

wait I only need 3 more levels then you can abolish PLing
