This is a first for me but I don’t normally come to the official forums to make a post. In fact this is the first time I've a been here since 1.0 official forums. I apologize in advance that my English is not exactly good.
There has been an issue that is steadily growing each season. At this point where the game mode is no longer enjoyable. I just want someone from Square Enix to see what is going on because it feels like people who do the report on this don’t really see an impact despite it going on for several seasons. The people who grief in feast only seem to get more bold with their actions. There are some cases where people sit and do nothing. Other times the pretend like their playing but don’t commit to anything.
It isn’t just people throwing matches. People are participating in the act of boosting as well. It has picked up rapidly up this season. From what it looks like any future seasons in feast is doom to griefing and people exploiting the system. I always try to report anything that is going on. I also encourage any players in the community to report if they witness anything. It is just really tough for me or anyone else to feel like it will do anything when we see the same person doing the same thing to grief.
As far as my feedback on what to do to combat issue is maybe remove the rank carry over system. (i.e. if you get diamond you start as gold next season) It will make it harder for people to boost and at the same time making the queues more active at unranked-silver at the start of a season. The people who obtained the rank of diamond don’t really need this system in place. Some others always suggest maybe rank decay or remove the highest rating. If a person already achieves the highest rating on the board they are almost free to grief as much as they want while still being on the leaderboard. It almost doesn’t seem fair to anyone else. By removing this it might help improve the quality of life of the game mode At this point, I will most likely not be playing in the future, but I want to at least do my part and post this here.
