Sorry man, I gotta eat too
wooooaaaa brooooo you can call them subhuman but you CAN'T bring up their IQ what if their feelings get huwt
This is how I feel anytime with public PFs. 9/10 players always fucking up the same mechanics. But nothing makes me more mad is when someone joins a clear party without even getting to the last few mechanics AND ADMITS TO IT. Pretty sure I got reported once for going off on a guy who did this to us in P1 savage with the other pubbie defending him. I'd lose my mind in solo PF and eventually get myself banned.
The devs are gradually adding NPC party members to early game main story dungeons so you can do them solo and in the most recent two expansions this was already implemented from the start. Even for the main/side story stuff you need to do with other players there's a duty finder queue system that will match you up with randos so you can complete it and afterwards move on.
That's what makes you mad? Try having pubbies constantly join your clear/farm party and admitting that they've never even attempted the fight at all, let alone never bothered watching any guides for the fight.
They're starting to make XIV's basic progression increasingly soloable. The fun you'll have a result may vary.
Yes, and they are actively making it more solo-able all the time. All of the required stuff you can get randomly matched up with people to complete with (usually) no issues. If you want to do the actual fun stuff, you will need to branch out and find some people you can tolerate to do stuff with you like savage raids or other side content. I would try and find a small Free Company (guild) to take you under their wing to help you out if you need it. and by all means, stay away from the Novice Network!
The free trial is free, so no big pressure if you end up not liking it.
This game's forced party content for basic progression is easy and you have a match making system to easily get you any people you need without any fuss. You don't need friends constantly hovering around you to get through FF14 at all unless you want to do content that requires brain cells, but even that can technically be do through PUGs.
I've had these yes. I give them a chance or two but only because my fc members are like "Awww just give them a chance!", then they're surprised we have to start from scratch. I think we only managed once to do this in the WoL Extreme fight somehow.
This is what erks me the most. I know its been said quite a few times already, but the overly kind attitude that the community have is extremely gay and borderline creepy. Absolutely hate having to hold back, it feels like having a gun over your head.
See, I don’t think being critical is a problem. There’s a difference between “Hey BLM, you need to move, you’re causing wipes” and “fucking dipshit uninstall and kys irl”
The Novice Network is a great source of comedy. Use it to answer questions you’re too lazy to Google, take anything said as definitive or authoritative with a massive grain of salt and laugh at the unpaid jannies seething and raging over the dumbest shit.Yes, and they are actively making it more solo-able all the time.
