There are still people who get mad about DPS meters in MMORPGs?

Countblanc posted:It's stupid because you can tell when a tank and a healer are loving up and tell them as such, but if you tell a DPS to actually push buttons instead of watch netflix you can get banned. No, you can still do this, you just have to know their class well enough to see what they're doing wrong. "Hey idiot stop spamming bootshine" etc. I like the policy because I want to run chill lowbie content to unwind after work. Countblanc posted:Also, ALSO, this is important, but doing the biggest numbers and then ribbing your friends about it is cool. You can also still do this, just not by saying it in game. You can probably do it in whispers/FC chat and not even get banned for it because who would report that. Xavier434 posted:I have found that this scenario is not a drawback in practice as much as it is in theory. The practical problem is that there's 2-4 DPS on a Dungeon Finder team, and it can be hard to tell who's failing without a DPS meter to say so. Especially a team-viewable DPS meter. For FFXIV, they do so much stuff with party voting already, I'd like to see them have a button to vote to turn DPS meters on for this dungeon.

Welp. Til they fix the halfassed controller support I'mma have to put this game off. I use a wireless keyboard/trackpad combo, not the best thing to play games with.

Yeah this is something positive that the meters can provide for sure. I still think that they do more harm than good though. You know what might be a reasonable compromise? Have the meter but instead of showing the results to everyone only show it to members of your guild. Most of the toxicity comes from groups with pubbies anyways so maybe that would mitigate the problem enough to the point where the pros start to outweigh the cons. futile posted:There are still people who get mad about DPS meters in MMORPGs? Not as much these days. I think it might be because most MMOs either don't include them anymore or only show the information to the individual player.

No one has said u mad but someone sure has made up a bunch of stuff since he probably got called out once for being a bad dps

After talking it over with drinkfist we will be requiring DPS meter use in all guild dungeon runs and all sponsored events.

Did their last argument boil down to they have no friends or no nice friends and can't deal with them knowing their dps?

I can only get hard if someone is yelling at me about being last in dps meters, so this is very good news.

DPS Meters are fine. 1) Play With Friends. 2) Play With Like Minded People. 3) Stop being a poo poo Lord.

If I am not pulling my weight on a DPS meter, I just say its bugged and continue watching The League.

Third World Reggin posted:Did their last argument boil down to they have no friends or no nice friends and can't deal with them knowing their dps? The argument actually boils down to "the community is poo poo" and how lovely you think it is. If you don't like having dps meters built into the game you think the community of every mmo is loving awful, and if you like having them built in it's because you live in your own aspie's bubble and never interact with other people. It has nothing to do with whether you want to be good or poo poo at the game.

Post your ig name or get on CTS mumble and find the skyforge channel, it's way down toward the bottom.

I have never been in an mmo where the random pubbies you met in the world weren't absolute shitlords. Utopian mmo communities don't exist, you just huddle together with like minded people aka friends.

The core problem is how communities behave when given this information to work with. In regards to Skyforge's community specifically, I don't think they will use it very positively outside of guilds.

So, I have a weapon set that looks neat, but I've now got some better poo poo that looks less neat. Is there any way to transmogrify/apply the appearance of the old weapon on to the new one?

If you're playing the game for the ~*~community~*~ and you think DPS meters are going to something transform them one way or another you're deluding yourself. They're already garbage, the only difference is now you'll have time to think in advance all those snappy comebacks you'll have when they point out you're playing like garbage. Which they already do without meters, so get over it.

I unlocked slayer and had to quit it after a single fight. I guess I'll comeback to it after unlocking more talents and such but hitting for 200-300 after hitting for 3-6k on a berserker is not fun at all.

Yeah, I logged in to discover that I was guildless and wondered if Drinkfist had kicked me for not building enough house. Of course the servers were just making GBS threads themselves and my guild info showed up later.

Didn't even know this game existed until seeing this thread so I wasn't able to pick up a Founders Key on the store. If anyone has a spare code from a giveaway they didn't use, PM me and I'll gift you a Steam game or something.
