Blizzards new LFG UI is just the Mythic+ tool

While I could not care less about rdf being in or out of the game, it for sure is not more social than rdf based on what happens on retail.

I have a sneaking suspicion here that the issue isn’t RDF itself, but the cross-realm aspect, and that they’re unable to remove that from RDF, but are able to remove it from the Retail LFG tool.

Gonna have 3000 people request to join even though it says to whisper w/ your gear score and it says LFM X-cleave only. no rogues!

LFGBB will just use this tool and parse mroe information since the addon is better than blizzard

I have done mythic raiding in Legion and used the tool a lot for mythic+, there is nothing social about it because no matter how you get to the dungeon its up to the players to be social in the dungeon, not some tool.

This is actually less social than RDF or, alternatively still less social then spamming LFG for real.
my only hope is that people use it, probably won’t and it’ll devolve into gold selling and boosting adverts like the retail one was for the longest time(it could still be I haven’t checked)

So give us cross realm.

Servers have 5x the population they did back in 2005-2009. We already have cross realm and its called layers.

It is garbage and should be trashed. Just bring us LFD please, none of this nonsense.

Categorically worse than LFD, nice hijack from Retail M+ finder.

Put LFD in. True to WotLK and what the community, aside from the noisy minority, wants.

Can’t wait to sit in cities and refresh this tool over and over instead of playing the game, kind of like how it already is now

I’ve never understood why Blizzard creates a problem that doesn’t exist, uses the players as a scapegoat to justify the existence of this problem (which doesn’t exist), then proceeds to waste development resources and time on something to fix the problem (which doesn’t exist) and that new something ends up being worse and looking worse than the original thing they claimed was a problem and it doesn’t even fix any of the actual issues :slight_smile: Good thing the retail LFG tool which enabled boosting to become outrageous has just been put into wrath classic to give them a better avenue besides a chat channel to spam.

The team needs to flat out stop hiding behind “some changes” and “heart of classic” and just come out and say they want Wrath to be Vanilla but wrath content. it saves so much time and let’s people stop pretending the team actually cares about making improvements we desperately need. The fact that a certain developer said on twitter he “doesn’t see an issue with the classic auction house as it is” tells me all I need to know about whether or not this team is playing classic and how many addons they use if they do.

Clicking “apply to group” is the social interaction blizzard and the anti rdf crowd want.

but look how polished this tool is! you’ll be, like, "WOW LOOKING FOR A HEROIC UTGARDE GROUP REALLY SUCKS BUT THIS LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE TBC VERSION".

It’s very similar, but in a nutshell, yeah.

Indeed.

This is where people fail to understand RDF - it solved the issue of “class discrimination”.
Everyone had a chance to get in, but now, nothing really changes.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m VERY happy with this as it’s better than nothing and I’m tired of using Bulletin Addon.
But proper RDF still would have been better.

Nonetheless, I think Blizzard could count this as a win.

better than trash is still technically “better” but man oh man does this tool very much miss the mark and create more potential avenues for abuse and boosting services then RDF would ever have.

We are going to need some WA’s for this tool tbh, with an ability to sort out certain verbiage.

This is about what I expected. When will they realize so long as groups can only be formed manually it’ll continue to be nothing but buying and selling of dungeon runs. And elitist gatekeepers.

What a colossal waste of time and resources. Blizzard you have an authentic tool from Wrath that works perfectly for Wrath.

By the way, so no teleport to instances? No random dungeon rewards?

So lowbie dungeons will continue to be nothing but boosts. Max level dungeons will continue to be bought and sold. They artificially slow player progression by removing the rewards. And players get to fly afk to instances for more wasted time.

I was looking forward to rolling on a fresh server, but I don’t know if I can support this company anymore. This is a complete joke.

So when is the news that dungeonboosting does not work anymore? Because if not this tool will be full of adverts like that.
