Please let PS4 parse our dps like pc

[Niko_Kishiko]

All of our dps data is being uploaded and PC players watch their dps like a hawk and upload it. This is fine, I would just like the option to also be able to watch my dps.

I just started doing Eden and ex'es and yep my parse is hot garbage from what some pc players must have logged of my performance.

Please give ps4 players a way to track their dps. Even if it's just our dps that would be fine. I don't care what others are doing really. I'm just trying to improve my own crappy play.

I've passed the stone, sky, sea thing it's not good enough. I practiced on these before I went in to ex. It's not like being in the fights at all because there are no mechanics to dodge.

I know "get a PC". I can't afford one. Yes, I I'm a loser that sucks at life and need to get a job.. this is not an option for me at the moment as I'm a gimp (gimps have a lot of time for mmorpgs)

Moving on. Fflogs is an enormous part of XIV endgame. Accept it and give us the tools to work with it please.

FFlogs is not made or supported by SE, it is a third party tool.

Support, a personal real time parse would be a wonderful addition to the game in terms of self improvement. For all the naysayers concerned about toxicity, it won't change in the slightest.

Yeah, a personal parser would 100% do no harm, especially not if they treat it like they do current parsers, i.e. if you harass people over it, Mjölnir will be swung.

It will change. Right now if someone calls you out for low dps you ask how they know. When they reply that they run a parser you can then report them for 3rd party software and they will get their account suspended or banned. Because of this people keep quiet. This does not apply to static groups.

If they allow parsers then it will turn into "must have minimum dps >= X else kick".

Not sure if you ever followed the Japanese server raid groups or not. They go by the "follow the mechanics and stay alive and we win".

Oh please, the Japanese also have a blacklist where they put all the players who lie about their performance and are holding groups back. It's pretty much common knowledge and I wish all DCs would do this to keep these type of players out of my way.

Also the 2 excuses brought up this time are funny.

"I was top tier in another game" Cool, I was a top tier Formula 1 driver, obviously mean I'm a top tier NASCAR driver and should win alot of races. Oh wait, different means, different rules and different environments. It's doesn't translate 1 to 1.
"I'm top tier but just not interested in Savage" I could beat Floyd Mayweather in a fight but I'm just not interested in fighting ya know.

tl;dr It's not how it works... It's not how any of this works.

You are aware that your words there make you sound, right?

You can't say, "Keep these type of players out of my way" without sounding like an 80's sports movie villain.

Using a program not supported by, and in fact is against the rules of, the game to "improve" is exactly like using steroids to win a weight lifting competition.

A parser is more like recording one of my fights and then reviewing it later to see all the mistakes I made to then act on them. If it was steroids, the parser would let me compete with DPS players as a Tank or a Healer. Get your damn comparisons straight.

Also I outdps'd more players than I care to mention on Warrior during HW and SB. Am I wrong in wanting those players effectively being awful out of my way?

[Lynesse]

Hugs!

You're learning! I don't think anyone's going to judge you.

Someone uploaded a run that was, like, my second ever time tanking Ghimlyt? I was in i360 gear. I spent the entire time in Shield Oath, clipped my DoT, and was super nervous. One of the DPS died at the end. The healer died at the end, too, but was raised. The whole run was a mess.

But it's up there.

It hasn't stopped anyone from acknowledging how much I've grown since then.

[Crushnight]

everyone having their own personal dps meter that only shows themselves, sure i'd love one, constantly having to ask my friends am I doing decent? is a small hassle and as cannot see i have to wait for them to be online whereas this would allow me to do it in my own time.

Make it so it is an opt-in situation as well, so by default your personal dps meter is turned off so only people who want to see their own numbers will use it.
