"I played other games, other game content is harder."

"Let me educate you on what this game's hard content needs changed."

Thats why I have never met a raider that comes out with this silly idea of auto LFG. Like seriously, every single person that comes out with this idea eighter confirms he did not know about raid mechs or after some discussion sporadicly says that they don't want those raids included in auto LFG anyways coz toxicity/dead content. (Take your pick, just do not include third option which is "you were just right and raids wouldn't work with auto LFG" this one is a no no xd).

And as you can see I do not include Raids here cuz I do not have the "10k KP" required to even know where the heck they are..

You already included them.

You can assign people to do special mechanics by telling them before going in. And you can know who know the mechanic beforehand by asking "Any first time / not knowing the mech?" These things should be a norm.

Nope, when I go into instanced content I want to play and clear it in the time I expect. I am not there to explain mechanic to first timers, thats what training runs are for.

16 minutes ago, Winston Lycan.5729 said:

First, you ask if anyone not know the mech. If there is, you tell them mech, and lay down the markers. Second, you split roles. Third, ready check and thats it. It only costs you 3 minutes instead of sitting half an hour in LFG.

So sorry but I really prefere waiting this over exagarated half hour on lfg than teach every newcomer mechanic and endure wipes they cause, coz this will certainly take way longer than 3 minutes.

And like, what is GW2 mech, again?

And here I was thinking I am writing with someone that actually knows the game enough to create such ideas. Not surprised tho. Well answering tour question there are quite plenty mechanics... Pylons, tanks, pillars, wisps, lamp, kite, ano, greens, golem, off-tank, orb, hk, black kiter, claim, dispel, mortar, reflect, cannon... ect ect. But as you said you didn't even knew that, than what we are even talking about.

Just like most other MMOs, you can queue as alac DPS or quickness Healer. Raid finder does not mean that it will queue 10 healers in the raid and hope it will work.

Edit: Lost Ark queue actually did that, and everyone fking hate it.

 

You still need to know whos going to do special mechanics as well as if all roles actually know how to play their class. Also it would be nice to actually know who have knowledge of the encounter so some kp system would be a must.

Imo, if a-net would even consider to put resources into auto lfg that would need to be expended like this, than effect would be worse/similar to what we already have, so I would really prefere to put resources elswhere or to improve LFG system we have now.

Exaggerate much?  They released some challenge modes specifically because the game has a reputation for completely ignoring hardcore players.  And they balanced a spec that was grossly overperforming, but which happened to be popular among players who wouldn't notice the difference between 30k and 40k DPS if you gave them a DPS meter.  Somehow this ruined the game for you, huh? 🙄

I never go with the groups asking for KP or LI. I already played WoW and FF14, so there are many more raids that harder than what we have in GW2. 1000KP just to do IBS5? Pffft. My guild leader can lead a non-experienced people who only has Rare equipment to clear the strike.

But you do realise that not everyone want to spend 3 hours clearing silly strikes?

9 minutes ago, Winston Lycan.5729 said:

The problem is not the Inspect. We need the Fractals / Raid / Strike finder. WIth it, you have to be forced to play with strangers, and everybody knows their responsibility to explain the mech or watch others action carefully to not mess up the mech. LFG can stay, but they can throw the "Training" section out. Nobody ever LFG in that section and it just creates a feeling that people should be "trained" to do the raids.

Yeah, imagine raid finder, 10 mixed ppls, half of them dont know the mechanic, only one can heal, no one can alac or quick, no one can do special role. Who do you kick and why? All have right to be there and yet you have 0 chance to clear the wing.

So I'll stick to kp. Slow time of a clear is one thing but what you are proposing just won't work, unless you have some miracle up your sleeve.

Giving an actual argument about why you disagree with someone is too difficult for the average GW2 forum user. Nope, gotta turn off your brain and rely on emojis.

Giving a searching tool a try is too difficult for the average GW2 forum user scared of emojis. Nope, gotta turn off your brain and create "I hate silly emojis" topic again and engage ppls into another pointless discussion.

Note that for instance I use confused/thank you emote if someone already answered someone with the thing I would wrote and there is no need to waste time repeating the answer. So I dare to say that it is your brain that is shut to notice that there are many ways to use this emotes.

[Whats Your experience of Fractal CMs + UFE Groups?]

For me it's kind of a mix. Sometimes i ran with total noobs/ppls that tried to be carried that wanted me to have 1k, 2k, 5k, 10, 15, 20 ect and sometimes all players were doing good enough no matter how much ufe they had. But for most runs I can see the diffrence in time of the clear between low ufe and high ufe groups. High ufe groups generally tends to know their professions and encounters better which resoults in faster clears, but as I mentioned at the beginning there are exceptions.

As for toxicity, i met them both in low ufe (lying about skill/build/experience) and high ufe (complaining bout 1s cc too soon).

As expected, people in this forum live in another dimension and play another game, they are simple too casual to even detect any bugs and when they do, they think it's a feature lmao.

Literally go to the bugs/professions section and read guys, it's not that hard, I don't have to just copy past here, you should be able to do this basic thing, right???

Maybe yeah, I should stop the copium.

If you expected this than why do you even create this topic? Only to insult other players mr/ms elite or to see your own words without answers?

Dunno if something changed but when I am discussing something with others and someone ask me for an example, I do not start flaming on them, you are not in the bum den so please start acting like normal human being.

Lastly let me remind you that forum serves as a place for discussion not as a place for throwing tantrums, so next time if you will feel a need to "vent", go outside and live a little please.

 

[I miss Factions]

I throwed original Guild Wars soundtrack into my custom  GW2 soundtrack playlist. Nothing compared to gw1 but it's still awesome expirience to roam new Cantha with old good soundtrack playing. Maybe you should consider creating your own custom soundtrack to help you deal with nostalgia. Maybe it will also make you enjoy gw2 more.

I just started playing again after being gone for 8 years and also noticed some unfriendly and arrogant people now, especially in dungeons. 

Since I've been gone so long it's obvious that I want to watch the cutscenes since I don't remember everything (and the story in my opinion is a decent part of this game), and people sometimes write "skip cutscenes or get kicked". It's also ironic that the same people are also the ones that won't even greet others when the party is forming.

 

I suspect Fueki and Danikat are right, with Steam having access to the game more players of "another type" started to appear.

I am afraid that it is not that simple. It may be obvious to you but not for others. Most ppls run dungeons for gold/currency, not for story and thay want to finish them as fast as they can. So unless someone wrote in LFG that he is ok with watching cutscenes or gave you premission (If you asked) than you are expected to skip them.

Best way to aviod such misunderstandings is to (as I mentioned), ask if you can watch cutscenes or create your own LFG with the information that you will be watching them.

Ppls afraid of a emoji again? Haven't seen this one for a little while. Have you already started reassuring yourself that everyone who gives you confused face is eighter a troll or lack brain to answer you with a post? Well I am sad to disappoint but most ppls using emotes are eighter too busy to answer or someone else have wrote what they had in mind already so there is no need to write it again.

But yeah, keep saying that ppls using this emote lacks brain are uninteligent or stupid if that let you sleep at night. It is you who have a problem and can't stand a silly emote to the point you must make a thread about it. xd

Well you wanted raids and you get strikes .

The old gg (company) knew that few people are going in CM , so they dont have to worry about dificulty and accessibility (wing 6/7).

I will not allow the old gg to forget about the Sollari incident

I really do not know what you talking about, and I don't even want to, since you use your old, way overused tactic, that is jumping from topic to topic once you can't defend the claim you are making. I came here to talk about toxicity, not raid sellers or raid economy. If you want to talk about these, go to the topic where ppls are talking about this, unless they chased you away with logic like they usually do.

Now excuse me, my shift at work is over so I can finally play GW2, instead talking about it.

We could, carry on convincing Arena to ban raid selling in the topic about raid selling than, coz you kinda missed this thread.

Just for the God sake use better arguments coz this ones here didn't even managed to convince me, and I do not like content selling eighter. xD

For TEN YEARS raiders have existed and were working towards game domination even when raids weren't even a thing. Thats a good one. I want to see developers face once they realise the errors of their ways after reading this one.

Too bad  raiders  spent 10 years telling other  people to get gud and theres no need for an easy raid mode (tried to protect their raid-selling-bissness) . 

Uuu "Tin foil hat" time! Ahh this pesky raiders and their atrocious buisness.

You know what? If there weren't ppls willing to pay for carrying throu raids than there would be no raid-selling-buisness. 

And as Yellow Rainbow actually stated, this game is rather easy, so why not put this little effort to do content themselfs and let raid sellers starve?

Also this sellers you mentioned really need to suck in their buisness. If I were to sell raids, I would rather tell ppls not to get good instead encouraging them or I wouldn't get many clients don't you agree?

Edit: 10 years lol xd  this nasty nasty raiders sect, were milking gold from ppls even before a-net came with the idea of raids. Nice.

I just don't like when people call casual, all names including trash player or lazy player or whatever the elite class think that they are somehow superior to other gamers.

Agree, that calling ppl names is bad, but why do you think it's always raiders who are swearing on other ppls. It's not like casuals can't be toxic eighter, but no you separeted ppls into two groups and it's always the raiders who are toxic. Not just Toxic ppls in general no matter of the content they play. It is always the raiders.

It's convenient to make that "casual - rider" divided here, but that's not even what it is, it's more about "players understanding the game's mechanics - players not understanding the game's mechanics" divide. The situation you're trying to outline here also goes "a bit" different, where the players weren't exactly being told to simply "l2p", but instead got provided with direct -and not exactly hard- ways to improve their gameplay and subsequentially (or even completely separately) increase their success rate. Then the response is what you're trying to do here: WOAH, YOU'RE HELPING TELLIKG ME WHAT TO DO?! SO TOXIC!  But explaining the game's mechanics isn't toxic, you're free to do whatever you want with the informations you get though 🤷‍♂️

Yeah but why using logic. This is better. xD

Player that know mechanics of the game + Giving advice how to improve = Toxic Raider. (No matter if said person even touched raids)
