Thread: If SE can't handle exploits now, why will they be able to in 2.0?

I do. More of them know how to have fun, versus the hardcores who take the game way too seriously.

LOL nobody gives a crap about you! Loser. Go make a theread complaining about revealing clothing. Why havent you quit already since those items werent removed. Waste of space.

Cat's out of the bag now...now everyone is gonna know. Thanks guys. ._.

Presumably they'll be able to handle these 'exploits' because they'll have a public test realm.

These exploits are more just balance problems that cannot be fixed with just internal QA.

Well the problem is, they don't know about an exploit until players start to exploit it... So how exactly are they supposed to stop it before it starts? Testing? Yes, but sometimes things are missed simply because if you put a system into the game and test it to your hearts content- you still only have a limited amount of time and players to test it, then when it's released a much larger sample group is given the system to play and /will/ find the easiest and best way to beat it. You call it exploiting, I call it strategy. That is why they have to fix things, because players are finding a strategy that was unintended in the first place. I didn't do the event because I didn't care about seals and I really don't give 2 shits that people were getting tons of seals before and now you can't, or that other players have things that I don't. See what a big boy does?

From previous experience on many other MMO's if there is an exploit you will either be rolled back or banned. Its interesting the SE in FFXIV is afraid to do anything.

(Abusing) Exploits are against the ToS. It's not SE being a jerk if they did do something thats them upholding their ToS.

I may just be lucky but I'm actually coming out with more seals now then I was before with all these crystals. Was usually getting about 12k per 18:00/0.00. Now I'm hitting about 15k+

It's not an exploit. It's only an exploit if the system wasn't working as intended.

I bought a bunch of SB gear and made lots of gil off the materia I converted it to.

Is that an exploit? I don't want to spend seals on things I won't use and will only clutter inventory.
