How does the green text of guild differ in sociability from then blue text of, for example, a battlenet community?
Obviously not, because nobody agrees with you.
So in order to be more social, players need to group up with a select number of individuals and ignore the thousands and thousands of others around them? Wut?
Yeah choosing your pug based on knowing someone is good is bad unless your in a guild with them then its good.
Pugs already take my sanity over the edge. scottish accent âIâm giving it all sheâs got captain!â.
That is a silly take. The shape of the game, the tools the game has the rules we play by shape the community what type of players and or what people are willing to do. Just because you got the option to do it. Does not mean that option is a good one. You can add tons of options to the game, but if the game does not push you to use that options for a edge. The players will not use it.
Lmao, right? Even if theyâre in my guild Iâm still not taking gutter trash into my pug.
Silly take? Did you know that the vast majority of people in FF14 pug? Did you also know that the game has such a strong pug scene that the game has built in features and filters to pick and choose the people you want to play with in said pug?
Once again, Iâm not sure you fully grip what you are complaining about here lol.
Eh, have you played other mmos? Let me teach you how it works.
You do a pug. Find people that are good. Add them. You can msg if they want to do a group if they are on, or get them into your guild linkshell whatever. They are not always going to be around, so you do more pugs and try to find more people. Build a network and start a guild/group with that.
it snowballs when other players do it, and also it helps build guilds up blah blah. Point being you understand all this right?
Like I literally explained FF14 in the post above this one lol.
Funny part is you can do all that in WoW too.
Um are you really going to compare 14 to raider Io and wow? We both know the tools 14 use is not even close to the same as wow.
Uh, how so? Itâs even worse lol. You can literally filter what job you want in your group.
that is not even the same thing. What the heck are you talking about?
Blizzard simply needs to get over their love of systems and STOP implementing them. Give us an expansion where we can go gear chasing and not need some stupid artificial power to make game play feel good.
Lorewise, I am a God-tier Paladin at this point who has saved the world like 19 times. I shouldnât need a magical necklace or a spirit guardian blessing to access my full toolkit.
??? ive added 4 friends through pugging this xpac and we plan on continuing to play in shadowlands. if you pug you can choose who you want to play with. Its blizzards issue for making terrible classes or adding mechanics in the game that will sway peoples opinions on picking up certain players. pugging on my enhance sham? very difficult cause they are garbage.
off track but why would i bring someone into a group that hasnt timed a +7? failing isnt fun, and i dont have all day to complete things. so when stuff fails its a waste of time
It is the same thing. Lol wut? You are talking about using a tool to filter players, FF14 has them built into the damn game.
I am not saying that people donât do this. Iâm saying that having it require by more people to build groups this way would help the health of the game and maybe even the community. That is what I feel.
You clearly donât play 14. Since I do, and do both end game and group content pug and not in it. I sure do see game features that show me what achievements players have done. That score showing if they done the content before? Ya sure does have that right?
Come on you canât be serious. Also, pugging in 14 has way more risks as you are well aware. You get more bad groups in ff14 than you do in wow due to lack of addon support.
But want to know best thing about ff14? if you call people out for doing bad. It is reportable.
How would forcing guilds instead of friend lists and bnet communities/in-game communities change the community?
By having more social connections? How you act can reflect on getting good groups or not.
How does that give me more social connections?
How does it give me more social connections than I already have? It seems to give me less.
No you donât lol. Kind of why those filters are built into the game. I mean at this point you are just being 100% disingenuous and itâs pretty pathetic.
No, they just get kicked without anyone saying anything.
