LITERALLY A BIRD posted:Back during ~*Boss Week*~ Tacitus and I met a gentleman who was really mad about the banners. REALLY. MAD. Just SO drat MAD. He COULDN'T GET INTO THE BANK. Because there were SO MANY BANNERS. HE COULDN'T COPE. And whomever was posting those banners was GIVING SFD A BAD REPUTATION. Like, he knew that it was JUST ONE GUY and not THE WHOLE GUILD but the guild reputation was BEING TARNISHED. Bird, you and I both know that banners just loving dump system memory, so I'm not surprised that guy was upset with our little stunt. So many additional polygons to render!

CLAM DOWN posted:Combos are not remotely the same thing as rotations. Like not even close. I'm not sure how someone can make that comparison, they're not even a similar thing, they're completely different concepts. Precisely this, unless he means to say he is telling people in Mumble when to throw down particular combo fields and when to use finishers, and "rotating" through them. If that's the case, then that is excessive to the point of being obsessive.

MysteriousThing posted:Thank you for dredging this up for me. This is worse than I feared. They are as of that post doing things the way they should have in beta. I took a look at that link provided for you. A few posts in, I noticed this: Moka.9641 posted:“Omgz skill lag, why not fix already, so easy, my grandma can do it, QQQQQQ, buy better server QQQQQ,”-Random GW2 player Which sounds like a simplified version of this: MysteriousThing posted:Yes, I agree with you up to a point. I think, maybe, listen to the people in this thread for once and understand that throwing money at the problem isn't going to fix it, but instead some hard work fixing faulty code to allow it to perform better with the equipment they have. EDIT: Oh, I see you presented this exact same point on the official skill lag thread (which you posted in but still needed people to cite for you?) and you got the exact same response of "optimization and software updates are far better than just throwing money at the problem." I honestly have no idea what you are driving at with this other than to stir up poo poo and/or validate your viewpoint (which coincidentally earned you your most recent probation, best I can tell).

Secret Sweater posted:To be fair, money could possibly "fix" this problem. What some games have done in the past is buy the additional processing power to alleviate the symptoms while they work on the optimization aspect of it. Once they patch that, then they dial back their computing power. Anet just didn't choose to go that route, so here we are. A fair point, yes. But, even in this case, they aren't upgrading or improving anything, just simply broadening their processing power. I will agree with you that yes, this can and does work, but as you state, it's a temporary solution to a long-term problem. Still, they are telling us what's going on, which is a far cry above the poo poo that other game companies pulls on us (EA being a prime example). Tarq posted:In the end they might have to get creative like CCP did in EVE by slowing down the server heartbeat in order to have a slower but lag free battle. Granted that solution might not work for this game, but illustrates the point. That actually wouldn't be so bad if handled correctly, though I'm sure a ton of twitch-gamers would cause a shitstorm about it. Sole.Sushi fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Oct 28, 2013 |

Secret Sweater posted:Whenever I do fractals and we get the archdiviner I always jump inside of him cuz it's a gamble on just making the encounter a lot faster, but that's about it and it doesn't seem to depend on everyone else doing it. I have seen groups ask everyone to stack inside of him before, though. I usually ask everyone but the guy with the hammer to get on it to increase the chances of it happening, but apart from that there's no real reason to have more than one guy if you can make it work.

SFD has also had an ongoing policy since fractals were introduced that if you want to do fractals, it doesn't matter what level you are. Are you level 1? Let's do it. Are you the only person with no AR at all in a group? Everyone does something you can handle. Fractals, more than any other dungeon, create an atmosphere of elitism and exclusion, so we go out of our way to make sure you won't get left behind if you really want to take part of it.

RPZip posted:C in ancient Latin is always a hard C, which is pronounced the same way a K would be in English. The correct Latin pronunciations of Cesar, Cicero and Tacitus are Kesar, Kikero and Takitus. Which would be fine if anyone said it that way, either. EDIT: most often it is said as "Tactic-us,"

Honestly, Anet should have seen that problem coming a mile away. People--lots of people--take PvP very seriously, and giving them their own instance that isn't tied to a jumping puzzle would have been smarter.

Alteisen posted:I know the boss, I've fought her plenty normally. "Beat dungeons slightly faster with this one weird trick that Anet HATES!" I don't mean this to sound mean, but you have a habit of overreaction. One weird trick no longer being viable changes nothing about fighting the spider the normal way, so honestly what are you upset about? You said you have done it plenty of times, and that you know the fight, so what about this is setting you off? Longer fight time? No "easy mode?" No dungeon is so difficult that it cannot be done the way it was intended. Dungeons have bugs, sure, but no dungeon is impossible as a result of these bugs. If you are having trouble doing a dungeon, find a better group to run with: Goon Squad is full of people who know what they are doing.
