Cut scenes

[mouseno4]

Gotta love those idiots in Castrum Meridianum raid, pulling bosses mid cut scene.

Just finished that raid and for 2 bosses i was not even present for. Why? Because they were engaged mid cut scene. Only a couple people died due to the fact that only one healer was present, but hey they survived just barely and killed the boss. Whats more, i got credit and enjoyed the story cut scenes.

Hey, its only an easy raid after all, and besides if they want to be all ''gogogo'' and die, they can be my guest!

Did they at least know you were new?

It is pretty blatantly obvious when it says ''viewing custscene'' right across my name. That and constantly being way behind everyone else. You would be pretty blind to miss that.

But hey, i aint complaining. Not one bit. I still get credit for everyone else's hard work, just as much as they do. I am happy to sit outside the barrier just so they can finish the raid 3 minutes sooner.

Well it's still a thing of politeness so they get a heads up. But alas people shouldn't go rushing in without making sure everyone is good.

I agree. It would be very polite for them to wait the 30 whole seconds it takes to view (and sadly read) the average cut scene in this game. But alas, we are living in an age of GOGOGO MUST COMPLETE THIS YESTERDAY gamer types.

In the end, we both end up winning. They get their raid done a couple minutes earlier, and i can watch and enjoy the cut scenes.

I don't think most people really care if you are new or not. They'll normally be a group who queues together and recruit one or two extras so they can just clear the thing on their own anyway. Frustrating for some people who want to watch cut scenes and do their story quest properly but that's the fault of SE for making story quest dungeons into farming dungeons for end game. Of course there will be people who do it several times a day and just want to get each run over with while going through the motions.

I am pretty sure the cut scene only plays for first timers. Still, in almost every raid is at least one or more first timers.

If i were SE i would have placed the ''circle boundary'' on the group preventing movement out of it until everyone was out of the cut scene. But my guess as to why that was not implemented is probably because people would complain and bitch about it ''slowing things down''. Which of course is ludicrous, as those watching the cutscene are excluded from the boss fight/trash fight and those rushing it run the risk of wiping if too many are watching the cut scene.

Still, its the risk they take initiating a boss with a few players absent.

I'm sick of all these cut scenes in dungeons. It is so over the top and annoying. There is always someone who needs to sit there and read it. From what I understand you can view these while not in the dungeon so please stop wasting peoples time.

And se I don't need a cut scene every time I do anything in this game.

Maybe you would be happy with a different game? The cut scenes are awesome and the story is great.

Um, play a different game? MMO's are about story, sorry that the story they are trying to tell interrupts your day. Also, a real pitty that someone may actually want to ENJOY the game they are paying for, how inconsiderate right? I mean, wow, there's only a large community of players you could get that have already seen the scenes or may want to skip them anyway and enjoy them later, but GOD FOBID someone actually want to enjoy the game.
