TBH, I wanted RDF when I was leveling more than when I hit 80. At 80, there’s no trouble finding things worthwhile to do. Leveling? Gawd. I missed RDF badly. It made leveling so much less annoying. For me, the only joy of leveling was building up professions as I moved. The gear was garbage. The lore (outside of the dungeon chains, ironically) was uninteresting (until TBC). iunno. could just be me. but the last time I ever thought leveling outside of dungeons was fun was my very first toon in ought 2008 when I first discovered WoW and it was like I was in a 3D RPG world for the first time. That “WoW” factor went away with my first leveling experience though. it’s definitely not why I’m playing classic. not sure where that puts me in terms of the majority of the player base or whatever.
Isnt that what spamming random dungeons with RDF is though?
Yeah, so? The problem is getting into the group, not the dungeon itself.
Sure I’m not saying that isnt an issue for a smaller realm. I’m just pointing out his argument is kind of moot there.
At least there is the opportunity for socialising in dungeons whether the group is found via RDF or not.
It is true that the Wrath crowd is more social than Retail which has absolutely dead global channel except for advertisement spam.
It’s sad, leveling through rdf was a fun experience and it will be again when it’s added in.
Leveling with RDF wrecked my immersion. I like to feel like I am in the game and stuff like RDF ruins that.
It literally still is; I just leveled a troll druid using it on Dragonlands
And chatting with people a continent away in LFG chat is okay?
And inviting random names off the LFG list is okay?
Inviting people literally a continent away and talking to them in part is okay?
“muh immersion” lol
Anyone else find it interesting how there’s a sudden bombardment of RDF threads by toons with less than 10 posts on the forums?
It’s the reason why the Dungeon Finder was introduced. Everyones done leveling alts, very few do it, and so the people that are leveling and or like to lvl alts are having a hard time finding dungeon groups
Yep, there were a few days without RDF threads, and suddently, there’s 20 active again.
And there are like 2 or 3 people keeping them active, and their profiles are hidden.
according to to multiple census sites My server Atiesh has less than 2k horde on each day and 13k alliance.
we also need RDF
Kind of weird both sides seem to do that huh? Lol
hmm, insulting and nothing constructive added to conversation… anti rdf troll. gotcha.
maladath is NOT dead, it has a vibrant economy and tons of people sitting at flight points and camped out in the cities doing nothing waiting to raid log. alts arent getting leveled en masse because of lack of dungeon finder, and people are choosing to run with guildies instead of fight through hours of lfg spam waiting to get a group
anyone find it interesting that 90% of the anti rdfers are the same dozen alts?
why is it okay for anti rdf’ers to hide their profiles or post on alts but not for pro rdf’ers? oh and what about the anti rdf’ers tracking people down to home servers to troll them in LFG chat, swamp them in whispers and accuse pro rdf characters of toxic chat and getting characters silenced by reporting on mutiple alts?
yeah sure, you have to accept there will be some idiots on both sides, but accusing everyone of the same crime isnt very wise.
For someone with over 3k posts, it’s a very weird take to act as if RDF threads are new. Been pretty consistent for over 6 months now. There’s absolutely nothing sudden about players wanting to tell incompetent devs that WotLK should have WotLK features.
My profile isn’t hidden.
The irony.
