Square Enix PVP Response is as out of touch as their NFT announcement

[Bureda]

Punishing players because of spamming emotes but not hot fixing clear bug abusers and sanctioning cheaters.

- Players frustrated because of the toxic environment that the dev team has created and now are punishing the same people they want to appease via neglect and not hot fixing.

- Releasing a competitive/ranked mode without supervision or response.

- Releasing a new mode and revamp without the EXPECTATION to do emergency patches and fixes to make sure the hard work succeeds and doesn't go to waste.

- Players frustrated because of clear cheating, bug abuse and class disparity.

- Devs clearly have not tested or played their own game.

- Crystal rank is more boring than watching paint dry.

Once again, threatening players with sanctions and trying to shift blame when they should be the ones held responsible.

Just, wow. Lmao.

I'm not sure how testing would prevent player from abusing the system and/or cheating. But also taking that aside as someone who took some time to look into those testing procedures in other games like say MtG... Let me be frank no matter how large a test group would be you'll always be under prepared for what will actually happen.

Yes you're right. Devs were out of touch. They did give playerbase way too much credit of trust. They should have treated every single one of us as potential ToS violator and install spyware onto our PC/consoles. That would have solved everything.

It doesn't take a large player base to test Silence, or WHM bug abuse or RDM 2vs1 capabilities. Have fun blaming yourself, not my cup of tea sorry.

Spamming certain emotes during a match to get players attention is fine.

Spamming "Nice job" and "Thank you" while losing or at the end of the match....You're basically the reason we have no real chat and I will report it every single

Both silence and poly are broken skills.

The only reason why quick chat is annoying is cause there is a sound associated with it.

My god I can not stand the sound attached to things like "fall back."

Right the balance is so easy to achieve as proven by any PvP centric game from Fighting games to Mobas... Oh wait, those keep struggling with that as well and their sole focus is on PvP. And even they don't release daily patches and fixes to address the balance wher it takes anywhere between week to months before they adress the issue. As for the threatening with sanctions... Are you drawing the connection between poor balance and the portion of playerbase inability to behave? To play the game without resorting to cheating or griefing other players?

Tell me you've never played a other PVP game without telling me you've never played another PVP game. Other story based mmos hotfix so called competitive and moba games straight up disable certain broken champions or bugged champions. Just, stop. The fact of the matter is this new revamp has been handled poorly and there's a myriad of ways if could have been handled.

honestly, if you remove chat, you should also remove the ability to report people for being abusive in chat

What about that person who dies 20s into the match and then proceeds to never leave spawn again and spams "Good match" 24 times in a row? People got banned for it 2 expansions ago and the emoting/jumping/fireworks were also added to TOS long time ago so I don't know why this is suddenly an issue to everyone?
