Dev decisions get away from the player demnads ( Parser PVP Goldsaucer diadem ect.)

[Laladyn]

Its just stupid. So much waste of resources for a Instanced Striking dummy, that most people will dont even know that it excists, where you have to travel to a NPC and talk to it to acces it. I get the crycry i get bullied when people see my dps argument but you could just add a personal parser if thats the concern. There are so many ways to implement it.

I dont understand the decisiions they do any more. It feels The devs have drifted away form the playerbase and dont know what people demand.

A other example is the Gold saucer , its good and fine but why arent Trple triad, chocobo racing and Lords not in Duty finder, why do we have to stay in that goldsaucer and are only abel to play people on our server and not datacenter wide, thats what basicly kills these games and its tournements.

Next example Grand company restrictions for frontlines people shouting at yoshi from begining that its bad, and it didnt got removed till now, they rather have the lore intact instead of fixing the way to long qeue times for frontlines.

Also PVP, the new Feast mode will have AGAIN 5 different Queues, didnt they learn from Wolvs denn 5 Queues is to much, it will take forever to find a mach. ALso you only can queue solo OR in a full team, we cant even queue as duo if we whant to.

Then there is Diadem that couldve been total awesome exploration contend but it became a instanced hunt that made savage alex totally worthless to do, back in the day they said raid tier gear will be the strongest in a content cycle but look how it is now you get thrown at with 210 gear in diadem and get upgrade items from void ark, wich leads me to the next point, the relic. Could they really not think about anything better then the same quest steps minus the awesome Chimare and hydra battles, then Fate grinding and stone/token grinding, i mean cmon.

Well what i whant to say is i think they lost contact to the playerbase and what the real demand there is, how to implement stuff, and what fun means to the players.

At some point SE will have to give up babying everything trying to attract new people, and realise they are losing more established players than there are new people joining

I gotta admit i have to agree a lot of their decisions make zero sense, don't even get me started on this mentor system.

How about, instead of creating a whine thread about why the devs aren't listening, actually post constructive criticisms in separate topics? Like... do you really think the US community team will take a topic like this seriously when it has garbage grammar and spelling, a metaphorical splatter of random topics, and a general attitude of malice towards the devs as if they're intentionally trying to screw their own playerbase?

Come on, now. If you want people to take your thread seriously, be serious about your presentation.

English is not my native , i think i got my point accross, if the devs ore anyone will care is not my concern i just tryed to voice my opinion. Maybe itll make a difference maybe not.

Well to be fair, he is saying that the devs have ingnored those constructive threads, which for a large part they have. The striking dummy is such a half measure with too many resourses used to create that half measure.


Also there are what, four different language forums? One must have perfect grammar in one of those languages to post a legitimate concern? I think the team is aware that every poster here does not have english as their first language, are you?

(Current unfounded gripe: I wonder if you will be abe to take your mentor into the training dummy?)

The problem is people do not know what they want a lot of times. There have been times that suggestions I felt were good ideas in wow which did get implemented in the future ended up turning out to be total crap after the fact. Suggestions from the playerbase is a highly valued asset but to take as the holy grail and primary source of inspiration for advancing this game is something that did not work for other mmo's. They need to have ideas that they drive and not let the 400k playerbase all try to steer the wheel. It spreads the development team thin implementing all of these ideas left and right and not focusing on the core gameplay. Plus the random match making on all the mini games is a bad idea imo. We need to be able to race chocobos with people we know for no reward or develop tools for the community to be more vested in the server.

When are we getting Lord of Vermilion Spectator Mode?
