What's the point of ranks?

[Punxsutawney]

So you are telling me.. that TERA today is going to be the same as TERA 2 years from now.... No my friend, you are clueless

And from I have heard and read, TERA is fairly average. Can't believe everything you read, but if the majority of people say mediocre, you have to start believing something isn't quite up to par.

Umm I dont Read it, I Play it. Also what is this whole crap about tera today goign to be same as tera 2 ?

If TERA 2 sucks because they repeat the same as TERA 1, they they no worse than SE, but thats what SE did, they messed up on XI release and now they've messed up on XIV release. TERA on the other hand did not mess up they know what should be in an MMO of 2011 and did it correctly. SE did not.

Come 2015 or whenever when new MMOs come out they should be good for their time.

You wanna reply with more silly comments or just stop all together?

TERA 2? Never said anything about a TERA 2. I said you think TERA is going to be the same as TERA 2 year from now (as in 2013) figure it out not 1 year from now but 2.. And you are playing A FGT version of the game, you see what 10% of the game and you are basing that it has tons of content... Please, you may be able to pull the wool over an idiots eyes, but not mine..
But i don't really care, everyone is sick of you coming to the Lodestone forums and whining.. Just play tera and leave FF14 to those that don't want to complain about it.

What the hell is a FTG ? I'm playing the full game, its out in Korean dont you know? I'm playing the full game and Im quite far in, theres just so much to do. Instances, PVP, endgame, legendary beasts (these are NM's and theres more than 5 lol)

If people are sick of me, put me on your ignore list. The developers need to know why XIV sucks and why everyone quit. If people quit and didn't express their opinion, SE Would not know where they went wrong would they?

And if you ment TERA in 2 years what is that even supposed to mean? Its getting a addon in April, it gets monthly patches which are SO much bigger than XIV's, that whole producer list is like 1 patch in tera lol but takes SE months to get through it. Theres also Expansion pack coming out in Summer, so by time NA/EU is released it will have all that, so in 2 years its going to be insanely packed with content. And XIV will have just finished fixing its battle system lol

Then you aren't even playing the NA version of the game, so your posts mean little to me. The game won't even be the same in America..... And you post proves my first statement to i quoted of yours. That MMO progress and get bigger as time goes on. Which is something you have not given FF14 the benefit of the doubt on. FF14 is brand new..... it will get more stuff to do as time goes on.... Go read my first post to you, it's the first one with your name in it. If you would have read it fully to begin with, you would have got the point... and none of this would have even started. If you like tera, good for you, just quit coming to the lodestone crying about FF14 not being tera, because we don't want it to be tera....

PS FGT = Focused group testing, it's when they get a group of players together to test the game, which is what they are supposed to be doing with tera in the West, if it has begun i have no idea. But i had no idea you lived in Korea, so it's my fault for assuming you were actually testing the NA version of tera, since you are posting in the English section of these forums, and i am sorry for that

I read a comment elsewhere on the forums that there's really nothing different to do between rank 15 and rank 50. That there's not much to the endgame. Are these things true? If so, what's the point of having a system of ranks besides an illusion of actually doing something meaningful?

This person has a point, and lol at all of you people not seeing it. There is nothing to do. There is no difference between 15 to 50. The only difference is the time you spent wasted on leveling maybe 1 or 2 more classes to 50. There's the illusion of "lolendgame" but really... those armor suck ass. The only thing that's worth it for me, from my point of view is the Dodore Doublet since I like Blacksmith. Even then, this piece of armor will be outdated by new armor when the level cap is raised.

Those of you that like to play through stories and quests might be good, but they are few and far between. A cutscene every 5 ranks and a fight about every 10 or 15? And sidequests that offer nothing interesting but a page or two of some bullshit that won't matter in the end.

As pointed out by the OP, there really is no content in this game at the moment and really, the only thing to do is level up to 50. B. O. R. I. N. G.

SE needs to step up their game if they want this MMO to be at least competitive when it enters the market, come PS3 release. It's already had bad reviews, which would only hinder its already waning existence into obscurity.

Sorry but i'm not giving any high and mighty attitude. I just shared my experiences of ffxi. And just saying what I like. So far you are giving that attitude. And really what is the big difference between ffxi and ffxiv?
races are identical as are the jobs/classes. Worlds are pretty identical. Alot of mobs are the same.

How is me saying I was not into end game because of the attitude of ppl is giving an high and mighty attitude. I have ADD and a plesent perk is the smallest things can amuse me. Like I have fun playing with me 1 year old nephew cuz I personally like his toys. And they are fun and he is fun to play with.

I'm happy with simple stuff. Is that so wrong of me?

I'm not like everyone. Nor do I need to be.
