We dont want RDF in Wrath

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

I thought i’d throw my 2 and a half cents into the mix from what ive been reading on these forums.

The main arguments ive seen about being for/against RDF seems to be convenience vs community.

Those in favor of RDF seem to be so because they want the game to be faster pace for:
The convenience of leveling faster in dungeons,
The convenience of not having to walk to them,
The convenience of not having to take the lead and form groups because they are a less-desired spec,
And the convenience of filling positions faster if someone drops out.
The ally meme is even no Razor Fen Downs, because they cant be inconvenienced to run to RFD either from Darkshore/Ashenvale or Dustwallow.

Those against RDF seem to be so primarily due to community related reasons, and i tend to agree.
I like the player choice aspect of being able to open LFG and potentially see a familiar face and go “oh yea, lets grab him”, or “oh, god not him”, or being able to fill the group with classes we want instead of just praying we get a person with 1/2 a brain every single time we wanna go do a dungeon.
I like the time it takes to get everyone to a dungeon, it provides downtime to potentially chat to my new groupmates instead of “pop ok we’re in, gogogo.”

These are just my thoughts, but i’d really dislike RDF coming back and i still, even after 12 years, dont understand the push to keep turning WoW into an Action MMO instead of an MMO RPG.

I also wonder how cordial people could be in requards to this topic, because every post seems to devolve into vitriolic flames and sh*tposting.
^^^^^ This proved to be impossible, as people appearently think my opinion is an affront to the very fabric of who they are as a person and gamer.

People want to play the game while waiting for a dungeon, not sit in a city and constantly spam the chat. If people want to be social, they will be social. Most people are social with their guild members and not with randoms. That’s just how it is. I have friends in real life and I don’t care to make small talk with randies. Wrath dungeons with random people will never be a social experience in 2022. Ever.

Nobody want to sit in a city spamming for players…

Nobody wants to run to the dungeon. Every group I’ve formed has been filled with lazy selfish players who ask “Can i get a summon” because they want to continue questing…

PvP players can now queue from anywhere in the world and Teleport to their BG. What happened to making their way to a City to play in a BG…

Yes, theres a HUGE difference between sitting in the city waiting for dungeon que pop and sitting in a city finding members.
You can play the game while doing either so i find that point moot.

Source: “Trust me bro”
Thats not the experience ive been having

Didnt say anything about a social experiement. Nice gaslight though

Then summon them or kick them and find someone else

Proving my point that RDF supporters cant be inconvenienced

Read it again… slowly.

Not only do they want to continue questing while someone else and myself have to make the journey, they selfishly continue questing until they are finished and then take the summon. That’s disrespectful to the groups time.

I’d like to be questing and get teleported to the dungeon also…

No one is stopping you from not using the Tool. Your ability to recruit from chat channels isn’t being taken away.

You right. Abit of that dyslexia kickin in, my bad.
Still wrong about RDF though.

Thanks will do! See you there

Nah you wont. RDF was legit my bottom line. Only reason I came back was because my buddy mentioned it wasnt gonna be in the game.

But here’s to hoping you’re wrong raises glass

Only smooth brains keep repeating the same trolling line over and over.

Guess you cant be inconvenienced to come up with something different each time.

At least this is more original.
Knew you could do it if you tried.
Might even steal this tbh.

We dont want RDF in Wrath

So, who is this we that you speak off? Because you do not have permission to speak on my behalf.

Also, what is wrong with posting in already one of the existing threads?

How does a Dungeon effect the community? Back in The Burning Crusade or Wrath of the Lich King (Not talking about classic here), there was no server communities apart from within your guild, because there was that many people playing it was almost impossible to keep up.

So, in otherwords, rather be salty and do the same thing as forming a raid, pick who you want, but kick out someone else because they are either undergeared or haven’t done the dungeon before.

I’ll put it this way, even if RDF did get added in a later phase, it isn’t going to effect anybody. The only community that is within WoW is within the guilds. Not the players. Whether you all accept this or not, RDF isn’t something that is going to effect anything.

Also, the reason why I want RDF, in my own experience, because I am sick of the toxicity of the community declining you because “Oh, lets grab this person who is in full tier” instead of grabbing anyone. (I know, because the previous guild I was with did this, and I left the guild. I don’t like the toxic behaviour of people)

Also, Wrath Dungeons are basically so easy, you do not need to be geared at all. You can basically do them naked if needed and still easily clear the dungeon, especially in Heroic.

Also, I’ve posted this in another thread, I’ll also post it here, the server I’m on, Remolus, it is the only Oceanic PVE server, and it is Alliance Heavy. What are you going to say for all the Horde players on this server who want to play on a PVE server? Tell them to “git gud” and make friends, or tell them to transfer to a PVE Server in NA to deal with latency issues, or to tell them to transfer to a PVP Server?

How the hell is RDF an Action MMO? Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. You do know what an MMORPG is.

And that’s the problem with you min-maxing people… can’t get an invite to Deadmines because I’m a ret paladin and you rather wait another 20mins to take a warlock because tHaTs ThE bEtTeR DpS AnD wE cAn CLeAr ThE DunGeOn 1 miNuTe EaRlIeR

And when that happens, without RDF, most groups get disbanded because another member just leaves due to not having enough time to spend another 25 mins to find a new healer/tank… walk outside again to summon (or they wont come), or dont wanna join because we already started… thats it, time wasted. At least with RDF someone else will automatically join and we can continue without wasting too much time.

Yeah on a mega-server this happens a lot :smiley:

Not related to each other.
Classes we want = EVERY class and spec are viable in WoTLK especially low level so stop this “bUt I WaTcH tHeM oN YouTuBe AnD hE sAiD ThAt”-min-maxing culture thing, thanks! A warlock (meta class, yes) can be braindead too.

Not everyone has that much time and still wants to play this game. Also, you DO NOT HAVE TO use RDF when it’s implemented. You can still grab your friends along and find your people.

You.
And you won’t have to use it. Others will use it.
