I mean i and others play this game every day just like we have for the past how ever many years and its fine.
Dont get me wrong ive experienced bugs and annoyances but when those things relate to years old content versus running ur weekly m+ its hard to really care.
My average m+ and raid experience is just fine and basically bug free.
It doesn’t but they don’t really search for them either. As long as i dont stupidly publicly post a screenshot or stream with my character name in it, they will never know. Nor will they actually care as long as im not using them to cheat.
Edit: or talk about using them in game and get reported.
I think I prefer the actual rotations in 14. More and more WoW specs are getting homogenized into builder/spender rotations where the vast majority of your time, as well as the APM, is being taken up by 3-4 buttons.
i mean a lot of classes in FF14 have 1 2 3 combos that take a lot of the rotation too.
According to an article written 3 days ago, WoW still has more subs and popularity than any other MMO.
But don’t worry. I know you won’t let something pesky like facts get in the way of your witty comment.
This may sound like a wild concept, but in a game that has a paid subscription model that generates hundreds of millions of $ per year, no bugs should survive longer than a few weeks at most.
This is why you have internal QA testing to catch these. The age of the content should not determine the importance of the error. If it’s wrong then it’s wrong and it needs to be fixed because someone is paying to experience that product.
M+ is an infinite scaling mode, once you get past a certain point it’s not surprising ppl are picky.
It already did more than enough damage to class design.
Mostly the Ranged Physical DPS because a lot of the RNG baked in.
That’s nice. Which part of that changes what I said?
The sword that is clearly tacked on to gameplay meant for a dedicated caster. The job is designed to spam magic most of the time, and without procs it takes 18 GCDs to be able to swing the sword at all. That is an issue when the class in question uses magic and a sword. It’d be like if Ret could only swing their hammer once per 20 uses of Exorcism or Holy Shock.
And ninja, and reaper, and viper, and monk and… well dragoon is more of a 1-10 combo.
And literally all the tanks.
Well let’s have a look…
We have over 7m active subs right now. 3M and 7M are not the same. So what it changes is your comment into troll bait… or a lie… take your pick.
If you are only hitting 3 buttons for the bulk of your time, you are doing something severely wrong lol.
The 7 million number is literally made up but if your defense is 4+ million vs 254 million accounts…lawl. You should try and rethink your strategy. Use peak subs, 12 million, and it’s still a joke.
I dont think you will find a single piece of software anywhere let alone one as complex as wow that does not have bugs.
We put a lot of pressure on the devs of this game to ensure a good experience but lets understand that at the end of the day its a jerry rigged 20 year old video game that was never meant to be the definitive mmo we all played forever. Its a miracle raid and m+ is as consistent as it is. I mean these desync issues are the worst technical issues we’ve had in multiple years.
I never said they were the majority of the rotation, just the fact they had the 123 combos.
Further more, the 2 minute meta sucks. No class will truly feel unique because all CDs have to line up for the burst every 2 minutes for the group buffs.
And i see your comment about the 12 million subs being a joke, no game has really come close to those numbers of ACTIVELY PLAYING SUBS (not players, lots of games done that, people PAYING MONTHLY)
lol are you serious? xiv’s game design is stale and boring at this point. they never switch anything up and have actively made class design worse.
no way this is serious. and i’m a huge xiv fan too.
I didn’t say 12 million was a joke, I said 12 million vs 254 million accounts is a joke. Probably should try and read.
And if you think some sub-par anime version MMO, with fewer players than blizz has subs, you are obviously willfully ignorant. So talking to you is a waste. Bait someone else. I’m not interested. Not like you have facts and statistics to back up your BS anyway.
I never claimed 14 had more subs so…wut?
