Please remove hunt rewards from Cross-Datacenter visitors

[Gokki]

I love the new announcement of cross-datacenter travel, i am looking forward to visit my friends in other datacenters.

There is, however, one big problem: hunts. Be it A-rank hunt trains or S-rank hunts there will be a huge problem with a lot of people wanting to do them across datacenters.

So please disable any rewards from defeating hunt marks for cross-datacenter wanderers.

No , if they take part , they get rewards

It sounds like cross-data center won't be as much of a problem for hunts as cross world was. The way it will work, as I understood it, was that you'd have to log out of the game, and log back in on the new data center in order to visit worlds there, making hunt trains cross data centers less viable.

That said, I really do hate what cross world hunts did the the hunt scene on my own server. I used to participate all the time in Stormblood and was a part of very active linkshells announcing hunts. Now they're dead before people on the server can even load in, and sometimes even if I do find an active hunt, the hunt target doesn't even load in to try to hit it before it's dead. I know several people enjoy taking part in the discord or whatever channels organize cross world hunt trains, but for me, it's a change that's been for the worse.

It's bad enough already within the same datacenter with too many people, with more people being able to participate it'll be a huge mess and will have zones congested and will make hunting completely unviable on PS4 or old PCs and Macs.

So no, i am totally against hunt rewards from people outside the current datacenter.

If they just remove the rewards, it'll go from people doing it for rewards to people doing it to troll. Short of making hunts just invulnerable to wanderers, there's no great solution.

Yo some hunt trains are already borderline unviable on the PS4. We can address the problem by doing what we're already doing: if the train is too big the conductors can call out the next zone and give everyone a minute to teleport in before calling out the mark.
Is it perfect? No.
But I don't believe a better solution would be to limit participation.

I do not think it will be viable to travel data centre for already spawned S ranks since you will need to log off/log back in to do that. However it will be a sniper paradise.

Hunting definitely got less pleasant with world visit. It needs to be limited for world visitors.

It has been bad, especially on Ps4. I’ve had to turn off player names and disable other PCs effects on my screen to make it a little better but I can still load in to an area slowly with people already attacking it and get there to realize the hunt has yet to load.

I’m completely for Datacenter wanderers getting no rewards. And along with it being time consuming to log out and back in just to visit other data centers, I doubt many people will put in the effort to find those hunts and kill them just to troll.

I'd prefer if anyone can participate in any hunt on any server.
We just need an in game tracker so nobody has to risk attempting to spawn an S rank that may have been killed previously
