It's Time To Reconsider Removing Crossworld Hunting

[Jojoya]

Maybe players from other servers shouldn't try to turn themselves into the enemy? I've seen plenty of fights in shout chat when I'm out gathering where an off-server conductor attacks a group of folks who got people together to take on a Hunt target, because our targets were "reserved" by the train for later.

Yes, we had train issues before cross-world, but at least that was us fighting among ourselves on our server and we could pass the word around about people being jerks.

I have yet to see any fights between players from different worlds that weren't also happening as fights between players from the same world before world visit.

It's not a cross world problem. It's a personal problem.

Sorry, but you can't "reserve" hunts for a later train. Hunts are kill on sight by SE's design. SE not only never intended trains to exist, they dislike the trains immensely.

If someone finds a hunt now and wants to kill it now, they're doing nothing wrong. The moment you scream at another player for killing something outside of train is the moment that player can report you to SE for a 3.2 violation and you get yourself a ban. No group of players "owns" the hunts.

Why do we have relatively little hunt drama compared to Aether and Primal? Because we respect that both free hunts and trains have the right to exist. If 3 hunts get killed outside of the train, we don't throw temper tantrums and go on witch hunts. We simply run the train as 9/12. We're still getting 9 times the reward compared to the 1-3 times the reward the others got.

I miss the days when I found an A rank and some people would just up and we'd kill it.
Now its like a conveyer belt and it took all the fun out of it for me..
So I haven't been joining the trains at all, but I couldn't even if I wanted to because i'm still on PS4.
Everytime I gather something and the train is there everything turns into extreme lag its awful xD

If you get the chance to play during off peak hours for your data center, try a train at that time (as long as it's not reset day). I do most of my conducting off peak so those players also get their hunts in. Train size usually runs 16-30 players so it doesn't feel like a zerg fest, you get to see the mechanics, and people are more relaxed.
