SE better do something or the game will drop dead

Maybe you should read then, inform yourself, and actually understand my point.


Xoo specifically said:



Regardless of how many have left (which is a fact and I never argued this point), the very fact that people ARE joining the game and there IS new blood coming in totally negates their WHOLE point which was 'there is no new blood to speak of'.

So where in my post am I uninformed? Oh wait I'm not, because I never said anything that isn't already known! /rolls eyes

the to speak of is opinionated and does not say any at all. yes, a few new chars are coming in, but not enough to maintain the player numbers where they are. there is not enough to speak of when the overall numbers continue to fall.

i understand your point. too bad it's still wrong.

/facepalm

If someone says there are no new people coming in, and there ARE people coming in how am I wrong? They never started how many, they never said there weren't enough coming in for it to be game saving. They said there were no new people coming in.

This is in fact wrong, therefore I am not wrong in my statements. If they wish to restate and say there are not enough people coming in to make a difference, or not enough to save it... etc, then yes they may be correct. But to flat out say there are no new people is not a correct statement.

You can dress it up any way you like, and I am not saying YOUR statement is incorrect. But it does not change the fact that the way they worded their post was incorrect.

In all fairness, while people have left due to *insert reason here*, there has also been an influx of new players as well. In the last week we have had at least 4-5 players join our LS that have started recently and are (in fact) enjoying the game, plus I have met others that have just started as of P2P.

Since you are not playing the game anymore and cannot see this, you cannot state that there is no new blood entering the game.

As a paying player who is in the game and can see the player base; yes, there is new blood entering the game.

So no, your above comment is not a fact; therefore you make your point moot.

Apologies for necroing this thread...

What you can't seem to understand.

I can say this SE has never mentioned anything about merging servers. They would solve a lot of their population issues on the individual servers if they did this. It would also make us players a lot happier to have more people to play with.

Just bec this has been said before doesn't mean the OP cant express his opinions. If you do not like what he has to say then dont read the thread period. You guys are no better by repeating what each other say over and over again like a bunch of monkeys playing "monkey see monkey do". That gets just as old as making multiple threads concerning the same topic.

I can say this SE has never mentioned anything about merging servers.

And I can say you have no idea what you are talking about. It has been mentioned multiple times.

Ok so where exactly did they mention server merges? Other than 2.0 which doesn't help people now.

Guys did you forget the number of RMT's still playing the game in all the servers? Go co-mingle with them I'm sure they would like to "be friend" you and party with you. Now there's someone to play with... :P

You were warned. I gave you 7 pages to make your point but the people have asked and the people have waited. time to give the people what they want and just because you decided to personaly attack yoshida and his direction of this game no mercy.

to make it eaiser on myself let me post this first since this whole post will probably make these opinoinated people head expoled (BooOm)

Ah, but this game certainly is like no other in the fact that it was released with very few ends in which to substatiate the need to go out and progress your character, save for the simple sake of grinding levels - if you find that experience fun. For those that don't mind it, or one of the few that actually look forward to it, what 'content' this experience amounted to was diminished with patch 1.18 and the onset of powerleveling and the linking system.

So you get there, to Lv50; Possibly you get all your jobs to Lv50 - and you do repeated Darkhold runs because there is an outstanding set of gear inside that fits the needs of all the jobs except Gladiator. Did you get it all? Let's say you did because you like the game, play often and want good gear. How much time (and headache, if you don't run with a static group) did that consume? For anyone, I can tell you it was days upon days. Come 90 days later, with 1.19, that gear is all for naught. The materia system. Twenty-four hours later, the question is, "What Darkhold?" - so it remains.

And for everyone with a Crab Bow +3? The dated gear/materia system and Ifrit. From these trends in development, I can't see how SE is even hopping on one leg as many times as they've shot themselves in the foot and their own attempts at content to the ground. Unfortunately, it hasn't been a single-action revolver, it's been a cannon that has taken players down with them.

This is why, in my opinion, I say they do not know what they're doing and do not hold much hope for 2.0. I doubt I'll even try it.

I'm with you on one thing: Wasting my time trying to state the obvious to you. Yoshida's influence has not made the game better. The number of people still playing the game directly reflects this. Now, who's at the forefront of v2.0? That's right: Yoshida.

What the hell do you mean you "prove your expectations"? What kind of statement is that? And as I said before, Yoshida's efforts have not maintained the playerbase, much less garnered any new blood to speak of. That is a fact and that is my point.

It's funny that you give no credit to SE for ruining their own game. Viewpoints like mine exist because SE failed to fix, (and in some cases added to), major flaws in this game.

why does he keep saying SE failed?

So first off you fabricated your own definition of fail(very cute but wont save you). Now lets be realistic SE at the release did not meet their projections or meet the expectations of thier players. in turn the development team was fired. Did SE....fail? Hell no, did the first development team fail yes.Thats why they fired them. Just like any job you have expectation that you have to meet and if you don't you get fired.(which proves that SE knows how to run a multi million dollar company). Then they brought in a whole new development team with Yoshida as the leader. The reason you even played this game is because of Yoshida and his determination to keep it alive and to put this game in the direction it needed to be in. now lets chop and screw these would-be opinionated post.

Evidently you have never been part of a developement team or created anything because i have to sit here and read post like "SE failed to fix(and in some cases added to),major flaws in this game."Lmao.....bruh this isnt your favorite perfect fit apple bottom jeans this is a game. no matter how much you try and fix a game there will always be flaws and things they will always have to fix. as you go through the process you make mistakes and you learn (thats life where do you live at)but since you brought up flaws 90.0% of them are opinionated(pop goes that bubble) because to determain what you call a flaw you have to have somthing to judge it with or against(please name a game so i can roast your further). just stating its a flaw because its this way or that way(which is all that rabble in the first post)but not stating why they did it and what would be consider not a flaw and the time frame it would take to implement it in the game is obvisiouly why you have the multi million dollar company and they are going to fail. Se has this or did that herp derp......yep you have plenty of evidence to prove your point.....(crushing dreams every where i go). for you to even prove half the crap your posting you would have to see thier acutal statistics not some made up projection you thought up because it sounded good in your head(if i use the word fail alot that will make my point valid....sounded better in my head....im glad where all not this dumb).

Then you had to say playerbase lol seriously dude you wanted this roast. i agree there has been a drop in players but to go as far as to say yoshida failed(bruh where do you buy your pedalstools from because from up there you look really big and everyone else really small) yet again another one of your very inaccruate made up projections. people come and go for whatever reason. they consider that when they develop their statistics and projections. guessing you never been in a buisness meeting before. so if they are goin with P2P they already figured out how they will survive without you and your buddies :-) lmao which makes your point pretty much invalid. also just to let you know your on an NA/english forum..... this doesnt make you think at all....i will give you some time......still nothing....??? The player base is Ea/japan!!! not america lmao you can tell that just by the forums. first off eveyones supposed projection of player base is biases that doesnt even include the real player base Ea/japan. then this is also another situation where having the actual statistics is required which.... you have none of. so what are we arguing that you guess this game is goin to fail (or use your definition) already failed.... nothing else no real evidence just a random thought and will be treated as such. i wouldve even given you credit if you stated some pros/cons, factual reasons, or at least a logical decription (that is not in the imaginary realm of perfection) of what you wouldve like to see but you didnt. its "im the player they shouldve had it done like this when i bought the game and since they didnt it failed". well why do you feel they shouldve had this done? is it because this is what they said was going to be there at the release? wake up call everything doesn't happen like you plan as you can tell with those subpar opinionated post.....but no where near makes it fail and thanks to the rest of the people in this forum i didnt have to post the actual producer letters, twitter feeds, dev post and outlines that prove what you would-be QQ'ers want is in fact already in development or been considered. so like a baby it cries all the time. you give it a bottle or you let it cry its self to sleep. QQ on, it aint goin to change a thing see you back at 2.0 (tucks QQ'ers under the covers)



P.S. glad does have gear in Dark hold....how long have you been playing this game again??? guess you dont include weapons and shields as gear.....
