five extra badges per dungeon you cant get any other way because of a lockout? i could get behind that. that adds up over time. Thats like a full small peice in a week extra, or a half a teir token extra over the course of a week .
Jordan peterson doesnt care about ableism btw. If I use words you dont understand and you ask me, iāll explain it for you
i think this is a great idea.
It doesnt have to be badges, it could be an RNG loot box or gold. Whatever works. Badges are simply my preference in that kind of a structure.
Whatever insures that the people doing more get more than someone doing less. Its a straight up reward for going the extra mile as well as serves as an incentive to go the extra mile.
RDF has its own list of advantages, it doesnāt require any further incentivization and shouldnt get any because it has to stay the lesser of the two options in terms of straight up rewards.
Dont forget, you can always do both.
oh im not disagreeing, i think the badges thing may work out very well.
out here straight up dropping nukesā¦
you perfectly articulated something iāve been wanting to say but unable to work out the correct words!
Great job.
They didnāt do this because they gave a damn about you or your feedback. Youāre not even on this game. They did it because they want to sell boosts/transfers.
iām fine with this honestly, donāt even consider it a big deal.
more than happy for there to be no 5% buff, it was never necessary.
Its not. Its following a very basic principle that works flawlessly - more time/effort = more reward. It also comes with the benefit of promoting socialization. Its kind of sad that we have to be led like horses to water to a degree but it works and the effort goes in so why not.
Old RDF was trying to reinvent the wheel and it simply produced an inferior system and results because it strayed too far from the proven working formula. It was less effort for even more rewards/perks. It probably would have been fine as a simple queue and unite system for X dungeon or a range of them and thats it. Probably a lot less drama too.
Yes yes, PLEASE GIVE PLAYERS REASONS TO SPAM āSOICIALITIANSā!!eleventyone that will no doubt promote āMUH COMMUNITYā
I dont care about any of that.
I like the convienience and social aspects of RDFā¦
- I donāt care about th e 5% damage / HP / healing buff
- I donāt care about the goody bags for in demand rolls (even though i main tank)
- I donāt care about the Daily Bonus (make it a quest that people can complete with or without the dungeon finder)
- Iām happy for cross realm to be a toggle or like queue time based system
- Iām happy for manually created groups who enter the dungeon normally without the RDF get an extra bonus to currency
- Iām happy for locks on heroic dungeons through RDF even when queueing random until phase 2 or 3
iām not against compromise, because at the end of the day i find spamming chat or watching an addon tedious, boring and annoying to the point where when the group is finally formed i donāt wanna be social anymore i just wanna get it over with.
So for me as long as, i can queue up and eventually get a pop / get a teleport to the dungeon and teleport back to where i was when the dungeon is over. I donāt care about anything outside of that!
I already have 0 need to get to know anyone on my server todo any of the content in wrath.
The only thing rdf would change was that i actually ran content with people outside of my guild.
also retail has not move away from LFD, LFD is the go to tool for doing normals and heroics and mythics arenāt listed on it because they consider mythic āchallenging contentā like the 5 man version of raids.
I would argue Mythic 0 could easily be put into LFD now with 0 consequence, but they are on a weekly lockout so it would also be pointless having it there.
Reported
Not because of anything bad
but because mass reporting is the only way to get blizzard to read human feedback and this feed back needs to be readā¦
They donāt provide insight though.
Becuase as far as you know, Brian and crew got marching orders to push boosts and this is a good way to make people use them.
We honestly have no idea their actual reasoningā¦ we have some PR fluff and thats about it, weāll never know the true reasoning.
haha no worries bud, i get itā¦ classic team seems destined to follow the crappy choices of ignoring the community that is one of the big reasons retail headed into the state itās found itself!
it was in for 49% of the expansion, but please donāt let facts get in the way of your hyperbole.
Just dungeon grind with the guild homies. EZ
OP is right, people inevitably take the path of least resistance but that in itself doesnāt mean itās a good system. The analogy OP made about purchasable raid gear is spot on. Once Asmongold said if a rat tail vendored for a million gold everyone would be vendoring them even though everyone knows this would be a bad system. The relentless strawman arguments are just testament to the fact that those here just have their agendas and donāt really care about the big picture long-term health of the game.
This is a good compromise. Let manual grouping reward more badges idc. Iād still use LFD
