Time vs. Reward, and The Feast Tickets

[AdamZ]

If you check top 100 from previous seasons you can see players with only 100 to max 300 games, some in top 10 are even around 200

On primal the average games played by the top 10 was 608 for season 3. Now that average dropped to 439 matches for season 4, mostly as a result of win % in the top 10 going up, thanks to top players being able to ride Garos to wins.

Generally under 200 (outside the top 10) matches would be a very high win %, with the player generally riding a fair amount of luck to get there (they still need to be skilled, but luck plays a big part of it).

Even if you can do it in say 300 matches, say you average 7 min a match, 5 min in que (which would be fast for all but healers), 1 min start of match wait, and another 1 min to get out and que back up. Thats 14 min per match, or 4,200 minutes or 70 hours. Of course that increases to 93 hours at 400 matches and 140 hours at 600 matches. This is assuming again 5 min que times, if we go back to after the first week or so in season 2-4 (outside of Garo) que times all but dry up. Making the actual mins need much much higher.

You on the other hand, deserve nothing. Be happy with your ticket.

Lol, is your e-peen going to be hurt that much if in season 8 someone has the same reward as you had in season 5? Would you not be e-peening with the season 6 and 7 stuff by then?

You sound like someone who gets mad that other players in Overwatch get Golden Guns 2-3 seasons after you got your own. You wanna talk about entitled? LOL.

I'm pretty sure this is about Ffxiv and Feast, not about Overwatch. He's got top 100 rewards you'll never get because he worked for it, unlike you who feels entitled to getting those rewards with little work.

I don't care about season 5 rewards. The PVP is diffferent now. You wouldn't even clear bronze in season 1 or 2 by the sounds of it. And yes I am entitled to the rewards. Me and the other 100 who played during those 8 months and got them. As opposed to you sitting and whining on the OF.

Your own inadequacy as a player is at fault here. Calling people elitist or being proud of the stuff they've earned is hilarious. Realistically I doubt they will make previous rewards available through the ticket system. I almost feel sorry for your lack of ambition, I do however wish you luck for this season.

This is it exactly. With this system, why should I or anyone fight hard to get in the top 100 if i can just make less effort across a few seasons, then buy the season 5 trophy? Why would i even care to try in S6 when the reward will just be a reskin anyways?

We're at odds with the idea because it's a direct circumventing of the seasonal competition, and the rewards available only during that season.

Lace the only reason why these guys are coming out the woodwork is because PVP used to be a mode only for people who actually liked to PVP. People who didn't need an incentive to play. These guys want a participation medal for logging in and doing 60k damage in a full 8 medal match.

I wish they'd remove the rewards, the exp, the tomes. Let's see who's left. Majority of the top 10 players for the past 2 seasons couldn't give a damn about earring, they played for the sake of the pride of being a PVPer, and the respect that came with it. Square enix should be listening to THOSE players not these OF knights who want an incentive for everything. What the hell happened to the thrill of just competiting against another player?

[ThirdChild_ZKI]

Oh I know. You could say having the foresight to see this happening (the moment SE caved on the top 10 minion) has been quite disturbing.

I do really love PvP in this game, but work/real life circumstances have not permitted me to rank top 100 in any season (I boycotted S4). Yet I honestly don't miss, or really care about the previous rewards. I can still log in and play and everything's fine even without having top 100 rewards.

But if it's THAT important for some players, then fight for it. Show how badly you want it through action, not panhandling.

[RedHerb]

I'm gonna be 100% honest. Some of you are just making PVPers look bad with the way you're reacting to someone asking for the ability to work and earn something they want. Calm down...

I've been PVPing for 3 years now and I've been doing it since before there were incentives as well, however I do feel like these options should be available. Options are good. If you don't want to purchase the outfits with tickets then you don't have to.

I'm 100% for purchasing it with tickets and I have plenty of friends who agree.

Im sure you would be considering you haven't received a top 100 reward before. And your friends? Mine are here disagreeing with OP. Where are yours?
