I did think it was a little odd that the K/J TERA had cross server LFD and NA/EU would not. I guess that answers that question.

These are great features that keep the game population healthy and make leveling up for new players so much more face paced months and years down the line when the base population has been maxed out for a while!

I'm glad you included this feature for launch, because it will really help people with diverse schedules. I also hope in the future we can have some sort of mentoring program so that we might assist our friends who pick up the game at a later date or help reroll someone who changed their mind. These are both great features that strengthen communities. Please consider a mentoring system!

I didn't read the blue post about 2-3x drop rates as being part of the LFD tool bonus. I think they were stating that the drop rates in general have been boosted.

All the servers are in the same data center, so they are all on the same time zone, so people are equally grouped. There is no worry about east coast/west coast time zones ruining grouping abilities.

Well, it doesn't explicitly state whether it was in regards to all bosses or just LFD bosses, it was mentioned in the LFD announcement though.

Why couldn't you just listen EME? There were plenty of people that didn't want a dungeon finder at all, there were even more that didn't want a cross-server dungeon grouping tool. Instead of a compromise you decided to make it cross server.

Why?

So does this system teleport your whole party into the Instance? Or does every group member have to hoof it to the instance?

So.... A LFG system that doesn't give bonuses for people who "want to remain in server"...

Yeah, there will be pretty much no one using this system.

Cross server will be the exact same thing that WoW has with the constant bad mouthing, trolling, and general lack of responsibility.

I miss when MMOs had a community involved and weren't a series of mini-dungeons you queued in to.

Honestly, I'm okay with it IF there's actually a incentive to use the LFG system ON SERVER.

Otherwise it will just be dead.

Inb4 100 pages of rage lol! How about this - make a group with people from your server then queue for the instance thingy - BAM, now you're playing with people from your server!! You guys just complain about everything...

Cross-server instance matching is great for queue times, bad for keeping people accountable for their actions (which ultimately sours the experience long-term).

Hopefully EME isn't opposed to having BHS change this system for us if need be.


Nothing is ever perfect just pick right leader and boot the offending party member. SInce everyone is kinda new whats the beef.

AN ADDTIONAL THOUGHT:

We appreciate the community's feedback and we are, as always, listening to them closely.


I hope you limit how many times a player can query on a daily basis.
