    Your first large paragraph hit the core point of the game on the head.

    The whole part about making friends and playing together is what the game is trully all about, and I guarantee you what 95%+ of the people who played this game more then 1-2 weeks have been doing since they started. Before people rage quit because soloing sucks they should try getting into a linkshell that does events in thier time zone or like you did form a static group.

    Game is horribly boring solo while you can do it square puts up barriers like crazy to push you away from it, but the game is pretty fun when you are with others chatting, talking on vent and what not while playing.

    So many people come into this mmo and try to play it like a mainstream mmo (solo until endgame mentality) and you simply cannot do it, at its core it is designed to cater to a completely different play style. Basically in short this game is designed for grouping, with soloing as a last resort when you have limited playtime.

    If people came into the game thinking "Ok, I have to get into an active linkshell, and I have to group up while leveling" probally a 1/3 less of the people who dropped would of... either that or they just would of never bought a group focused game.

    Unlock your view. It's the same thing you do when you view lock someone then autorun to autofollow them. On my 360 controller I click down on the left stick, but I'm not sure what the keyboard button is. It's probably something on the numpad or near the ijkl camera controls.

    This.

    I see so many complaints of things that aren't really broken on here. With a good LS the grind up to 50 (well 42 so far) isn't boring. I just wish more people would use the party search function that's in the game. Having parties in there would alleviate some of the pressure to find a good linkshell, and might help some new players stick around until they do. Until that happens, though, any bored newbies on Cornelia should hit up xatsh for a pearl XD.
