Very good decision. Agree 100% with your design pillar regarding encouraging social interactions. That’s what brought me back to classic
god bless blizzard
no RDF now
no RDF tomorrow
no RDF forever
Omg I love the social interactions I have when finding groups!!
“LF all for SM monastery”
“heals”
“dps”
“dps”
“dps”
“i can tank”
“ty all for group”
“gg”
YASSSSSSS THE SOCIAL INTERACTIONS GIVES ME LIFE
C O M M U N I T Y!!!
I hope blizzard will police the cesspool that is the LFG channel… RDF > LFG any day!
This. Not sure how spamming in /LFG is any different, except that you have to try and look for legitimate requests and responses amongst the jungle of gold selling, boost selling, and random other hot garbage. That is community to people, apparently?
No RDF is like life at high school before cell phones were invented
This is such a colossal mistake.
“inv”
–20 minutes later–
“Ty for group”
Amazing community interaction. So worth the time wasted. /s
Yeah except now instead of being able to connect with anyone at the click of a button, you’re all alone in this world ( of warcraft)
Ahhh the kids that were once in their mom’s basement and are now adults in their mom’s basement that don’t mind begging for a group for 2-3 hours per day. So much community
Social interaction isn’t about meeting your next BFF in SM. Social interaction is about:
- Having to message people and introduce yourself in order to get into a group
- Negotiating what items will be reserved, MS>OS, free roll, tank tips, etc
- Not bailing the second things don’t go well, because finding your next group requires more effort than just clicking a button and going afk
- Not being a jerk, because you know that will kill your reputation
- Starting your own group with your own rules and comp if you’re unhappy with the current group
- Chatting and shooting the breeze while waiting for the group to fill
RDF kills all of the above
If you just want to kill some mobs and not waste time with logistical stuff, Diablo and Retail are both excellent games to check out
tank, heal, dps
Not needed when you can get in group fast.
Not an issue when replacing is fast.
Plenty of jerks with no LFD, basically nobody cares.
Im not a control freak i just play videogames.
Are you serious? lol
Basically all LFD does is removing incoviniences and improving gameplay. It even improves things to people that just wanna level quickly instead of paying boosts they spam lfd.
Delusional and dishonest to state otherwise.
All my homies hate RDF.
Yes, social interaction is not needed when you have RDF. That’s why RDF is a bad idea
Yet we have none as for today either, gear res isnt a social insteraction its just an incovinience people create so they waste less time doing groups for dungeons.
None of these occur today.
They Should add cross server functionality to the LFG tool when sign ups are low or certain servers will suffer.
