Its literally panning the camera far way to see the whole arena. Likely used to study the puzzle properly instead of guesswork.
This is pure hypocritical, pretty sure other raid teams are also using addons.
lmao it's not only the zoom hack >hitbox pixels visible when it fades out after the wipe >recast times of other party members >ACT, of course
the other party members and, hell, even the other teams participating in this race were probably cheating too.
the absolute state of the "hardcore" raiding scene.
There are multiple catty little homosexuals saying something almost exactly like this in every thread, but none of you catty little homosexuals ever mention what """other""" mods they're using.
So either tell us what other mods they were using or shut your stupid fricking mouth.
If they're complaining about xivalexander, all it does it spoof packets so you don't get animation locked. Essentially it makes your input between gcd perfect. While it does go against TOS, as any modification would, the unspoken rule is to not talk about it and no one will care. I have zero idea what zoom is but I use Alexander because I have shitternet from Burgerland.

Anyone got the mod for instant kill of raids?
Let me edit those files.
0 Cooldown MOD is cool, but instant kill is KINO
To be more specific, XIVAlex only does it buy an amount relative to your ping, noclippy also does a similar thing. It also just affects animation lock, it doesn't magically fix latency. Honestly the animation lock shit is just bad anyway and it makes some jobs hell to play if you don't have an absurdly fast connection, it really shouldn't be there to begin with and its largely a holdover the shitty universal input lag the game had back in the day. It doesn't make it impossible to clip, you still absolutely can especially if you have high latency, it won't fix the fact that you may need to get out of the way of an AoE like a half second before the cast finishes to not get clipped, it just solves a shitty artificial problem the game made itself and animation smoothing while transitioning between attack animations makes it so all your animations still look find even if they're cut early.
Also like, using XIVAlex to "cheat" is basically useless because there's literally no reason to modify the code to let you abuse it unless you wanna double weave with full Haste gear on MNK in Bozja.
I'm not sure about this one, might be older. I know that there was a private tool that did the same back in early ShB as well, I recall seeing a video of it showing Limit Cut cone/line/circle.
Reminds me of a mod in WoW that showed up in late WotLK that would do the same thing and they changed the backend so it wouldn't work. I guess the XIV devs either don't care or can't figure out how to do the same thing.
Ah yeah that thing, I think it got killed off by 3.3.3 or 3.3.5a. If I remember it essentially software rendered 3D warning areas via drawing primitives.

Pity it had to die; it was fun drawing race tracks in Durotar and racing around them since AVR shared it with everyone in the raid.

This is what one of the people in that group tweeted when NA beat them for WF in DSR >"perma ban everyone using plugins"
Imagine all these jp fricks are using behind the scenes while trying to maintain innocence.
Man I remember people actively hating on hackers on Maple. In a fricking korean MMORPG grindfest. So fricking dumb. The hackers won in the end, just look at this shit. This is "legitimate" gameplay in 2023, no hacks. Get fricked, bug purists.
Honestly just fricking let them unless mechanics rely on limited information.
In a perfect world the game would have a FoV slider and zoom hacks wouldn't work, but I'll take the FoV hack even if it means people will ZOOOOM.
Shit like Cactbot is actual cheats.
the fight relys on limited information and they are using zoomhacks to circumvent it. it would be like if you could zoom out the same level as replay viewers in dota 2. it absolutely breaks competitions. thats why its only allowed in replays and not actual matches.
Yeah you're right, is definitely cheating in a competitive setting.
I just don't feel like it's cheaty enough to be lumped in with overlays and bots. Particularly since the usefulness as a cheating tool diminishes after the first clears are completed and tactics are written out.
It's still fricked that you gain such an enormous advantage for playing on an ultrawide monitor over 16:9 if you don't use any hacks.

I find it hilarious that for years FFXIV players made fun of WoW players for using addons, and then they shamelessly use them themselves in a scenario where it's actually cheating instead of being a raiding aid.
Is SE going to do anything about this? Kill the plugins somehow, or just give up and incorporate them in the base game or what?
I remember the first thing a bunch of streamers did when they started playing this game was install a bunch of addons to make their UI fricking moronic looking.
One streamer threw a giant fit when he the ban scare was going around for streamers using addons, but that was kind of typical of him anyway.
It's actually the opposite of okay. >JP has autistic meltdowns over using even innocent shit like gshade >These people embarrassed the entire community in front of the global playerbase
They're going to be crucified.
>>JP has autistic meltdowns over using even innocent shit like gshade
What the frick are you smoking? japs love gshade and have autistic meltdowns about there being no jp support for it so they have to create guides on their own
Did Arthars say anything? He was proud because his SMN that ditched his group was in the world first team that got caught cheating, but he privated his VOD, and I wonder if he knew before he logged off for the night
>s-stop w-w-witch hunting...yamete kudasai
The XIV brims with cheating scum, and is permeated by their rotten addons. Just think, now you're all set to report and ban to your hearts content - report in co-operation with your fellows, your honest raiders.
is this a hack tho? looks more like an overlay like the GW2 ones that don't inject shit in the game and just sycs with what's happening on the screen and this is allowed by the devs in that mmo btw
Yeah but they've made it clear they don't want to put in measures to try and prevent them because they'd be too intrusive, which I respect infinitely more since I rather some frickers run around with whatever plugins than be stuck with spyware on my computer.
In the end the actual problems here are that acknowledging World First races gives too much legitimacy to an ultimately meaningless achievement, the real solution is to either basically just like, try and delegitimize WF racing to kill off this desire of morons to cheat in it, or hyper-enforce it and treat it like they did the Ishgard Restoration rankings, with people making considerable progress CONSTANTLY monitored for a period. Any form of camera hacks also do leave a trace on the serverside, so it would just take a GM watching would 100% be able to tell.
I do think 14 should probably increase the maximum zoom a little bit, but what that one guy did with zoomhacks is absolutely fricking excess and comical.
>Any form of camera hacks also do leave a trace on the serverside, so it would just take a GM watching would 100% be able to tell.
Not in this game where only instanced fights and loot are serverside
He doesn't give a frick unless it's something that impacts other players. There's numerous visual addons like gshade or other addons that replaces SMN's summons with shit like Alexander, and no one cares if someone's using that. I think the only time they banned people for visual mods was when too many degens were posting their horsewienered in-game characters on twitter.
Ryne poster was banned for posting nude Rynes.
The real issue is posting screenshots with the watermark visible. Can't give the impression that the tiddies are official content available in the game.
It has the potential to cause legal issues.
It reads game state from memory in order to draw stuff before it's even telegraphed in the game. The GW2 thing only reads your character's current coordinates, which is an official API.
Yeah it's the same thing.
It's not technically a hack, but it is a cheating tool. The fights often rely on invisible attacks you have to use other means to align yourself to avoid.
One of mechanics in Savage/Ultimate content is the lack of overlay markers for some mechanics. Ultimates have a lot of them. You're not supposed to see them. They cheat by using addon
>sirs we need to come up with new mechanics that make the gameplay more difficult >what about image shape retaining or mandatory choreographic paths >or how about some mathematical problems on the go like that asiatic isometric mmo? >homie just make the boss attacks invisible lmao >genius!
That's the type of shit that's in the game.
It's not the same attacks just invisible, it can be something like In Normal mode, the attack is a stack marker that appears for 5 seconds before it goes off and that's the mechanic.
In Savage, it's a cast you have to memorize for the following minute where you avoid a bunch of attacks while healing and DPSing the boss, then depending on which cast it was you either have to all spread or stack in predefined pairs or you all die.
If you had markers the memorization element wouldn't exist.
With cheats, you have the markers including the range of the explosions.
One of mechanics in Savage/Ultimate content is the lack of overlay markers for some mechanics. Ultimates have a lot of them. You're not supposed to see them. They cheat by using addon
As someone who does not play FFXIV and just trying to read through and make sense, doesn't this completely invalidates the whole point of the Ultimate difficulty?
Yeah. Turns out some people don't enjoy the challenge and just do it for the prestige.
yes but square is moronic so they give every ultimate fight Korean MMO glowy weapons and cringe as frick player titles that result in every moron wantting to do them.
Meanwhile if you do the new savage dungeon they added you get literally nothing
Ultimate mechanics are still cancer but yeah.
So in normal content you have those markers on the ground by default, but they go away on the Ultimate difficulty, correct?
And then those top raiders add them back via add-ons
I see, thanks for explaining.
Man this whole situation doesn't seem very fun for anyone.

Ultimates in XIV are different from WoW. They're designed as endurance puzzle solving dance. I think only few times on JP datacenter people were able to pug Ultimate. At the end of raid they were like a FC (guild) static. gays want to reduce load by using cheat addons when game wasn't designed for them. This is for example how legendary UCoB "dance" looks like

Okay so Ultimate fights are like a big endurance test to see if the players can remember the boss attack patterns and gimmicks without visual aid
So it's not just markers on the ground to avoid attacks, they're like "Hey go attack this orange orb in a sea of yellow orbs" or things like that
Reading it sounds like a neat challenge, like a neat difficulty. But reading through the thread it seems like hell though.

No, you really don't get it at all.
Ultimates are completely different from other difficulties, not just the same attacks but without visual aid. The challenge isn't to remember things, it's to solve the puzzles. If you don't play the game it's going to be impossible for you to understand just how complex the combat puzzles are and why it is so hard to figure them out and execute correctly.
The attacks not having floor AoEs is a non-issue for any competent player - the mid-level difficulties also have that.

It's never simple things like that.
It's things like this: 4 players get a color over their head that makes them take constant damage. If two players with different colors touch, everyone dies. If a player with a color touches a player without a color, the color infects the other person. A color lasts for 30 seconds after you get it, then goes away.
A few minutes after the colors first appear, the boss gives every player an order to have a specific randomized color at a specific time. If even one player has the wrong color or no color at that time, everyone dies. All the while, over a dozen different attacks are happening from two different bosses at the same time, forcing players to dodge, hide, group up, spread out and so on - and in the middle of this they have to somehow get the right colors onto the right people.
That's just one tiny part of an Ultimate.

That's not what it is. Ultimates are a complete reimagining of a bunch of bosses turned into a boss gauntlet that stacks several mechanics that were not seen together before in a single pack, usually mechanics are pure random so being able to set priorities and adjust is king, and the several individual health bars makes holding and pumping dps for different phases important.
In most cases you see completely new mechs just loosely inspired on the older bosses. And ultimates are 16-19 minutes long compared to savage which are 14 minutes at most with several breathing room mechanics.

Both of these are unironically developed by the same plugin author, btw. and that's not even talking about XIVAlex which is worse since it is a literal DLL hack that can be used to reduce GCD speeds below what is humanly possible
>literal DLL hack that can be used to reduce GCD speeds below what is humanly possible
As I know you still can't do that. Plus if it was possible everyone would notice. Your log and DPS.
fixing GCD lock isn't going to make you prog faster, or make you solve mechanics any quicker
zoom hack will increase prog speed exponentially by trivializing solving mechanics, probably by hours/days
not hard to figure out why one is worse than the other anon, unless you're being purposely bad faith

any of you not in a static but want to make one? i want to do TOP. i'm on primal ultros. pretty sure that's the Ganker server anyway. we can bond over not being cheaters.
there aren't any cheats you can use to mess with people, it's all client side modifications, which is why they can't ban you for it since SE won't check your PC for files or running processes (unless you literally stream yourself doing it)
>be SAM >activate Chiten >bait 2-3 debuffs from Gold morons >Crystal alt WHM miracles the SAM's LB >"WOOOOW who could've seen this coming, must be cheating"

No they don't do it fairly often. There's ONE in my datacenter that doesn't even play that often and is stuck in Diamond because he's trash even with the speedhack.
>See someone in PVP baiting to knock people off ledges >They cannot be knocked back or pulled themselves >See people moving while casting LBs that you can't actually move during >See people spamming heals on themselves beyond what is possible >Instant CC upon hitting specific buttons

There's a plugin that automatically pops abilities for you but it sucks against actually good players that will notice and frick you over.
I'm not talking about that.

It's good enough, anon. You're at the mercy of crit variance and party consistency, anyway. Just do your mechanics and keep on punching, shit's not worth chasing.

Mudras have been noticeably fricked since 6.3 launch. They internally changed some code from UDP to TCP and it has caused a lot of issues; that emergency patch a few days after official patch was related to it; but it hasn't fixed all the issues.

Why not just add 0.5 CD for double pressing same mudra un row? So you will never able to frick them up?
I play on JP because I used to live in Japan, went from like <20 to over 200 ping
I absolutely do not care, I'm gonna use it because I want the completely normal Japanese experience I had back, or at least part of it cause it sure doesn't fix any other latency caused problem
If im doing something that assuming I had better ping would still be completely achievable, its still something achievable in game and therefore isn't cheating, hell even with XIVAlex I'd still perform better with better ping because it makes you have more time to move for mechanics, since higher latency effectively makes mechanics snapshot sooner on the player end.
Zoomhacks let you do things with the camera that no matter the circumstances, cannot be achieved in game, therefore it is cheating. Same goes with stuff like movement hacks or teleport hacks, they're not otherwise achieveable in game in any circumstance, ergo are cheating.
Thats how I see it, you can not agree I don't really care either way.

You're using a cheat to cope that your ping isn't as low as it should be, which isn't even true because your ping is exactly what it should be, 200, because you are playing in the wrong regional servers.

YoshiP is also on record saying that 200 ping should have no impact on gameplay but there are mechanics in the game where death is based on RNG if your ping is higher than 150 or even if you experience slight packet loss, let alone the fact that jobs are balanced around doubleweaving and 200 not only makes it impossible but single weaves can still clip at times. The fix is incredibly simple (stop resetting animation lock when packets return, you'll still have the intended natural animation lock) but they refuse to acknowledge it because they don't notice it.

Yes please.
Go back and redo all the "hard modes" into actually hard dungeons and flip some hard mode dungeons into other level ranges.
Then add them to a special roulette with unique token rewards like Unreals.
Remindee that raidBlack person cheating is the reason why we can't move waymarks in combat anymore Reminder that raidBlack person crying about buff windows not perfectly aligning is why every job has been sanded down toghe same two minute rotations, reminder that raidBlack person crying is why AST has had every single ounce of soul sucked out it.
isnt that every mmo? wow players use addons. ffxi players use addons. gw2 players use addons. everquest players use addons. addons are just a mmo thing.
>isnt that every mmo? wow players use addons. ffxi players use addons.
Not so.
WOW developers envisioned addon issue and stated to design game around addons since vanilla release.
In ffxi addons are part of cheats. Basically all cheating allowed because of addons. It's so easy and you can't do anything about it. They're part of gearswap even though you can do it vanilla way by using macro. Basically FFXI addons allowed cheating for everyone. And yeah 95% if XI population are bots. It doesn't have anti-cheat and people admit botting and cheating because >I have no time to play this shit again! RMT all day
banhammer everyone involved for a few weeks
remind everyone again that cheating is not allowed and they will update the tos again to be more strict with cheating like they did with harassment
>zoom is now reduced to 50%
I mean during TEA he "patched" the ability to move markers during combat because of addon gays used. And this change only hurt normal players.
Nothing. People rarely use markers in anything that isn't EX or higher. Sometimes you see them in alliance raids, but that's usually for group placement. It's just some raidBlack person seething about not being able to have a mod play the game for them.
Where are those homosexual weeb dicksuckers who were like "Honorabu Nippon players don't use plugins those are for filthy gainin NA CHEATERS" lmao get fricked
no, the world firsts in WoW have been public since wotlk and wow has functional anti-cheat. there's been some dodgy bans at times from guilds using exploits to disable raid mechanics (killing a player at the right time or standing in certain spots), but nothing like infinite_life.exe type cheats
the only thing people argue is the massive amounts of gold borrowing they do from RMT cartels that they pay back with interest, but it's all kept in-game.
>the only thing people argue is the massive amounts of gold borrowing they do from RMT cartels that they pay back with interest, but it's all kept in-game.
I'm surprised Blizzard hasn't cracked down on that, since it's in their financial interest to be the only RMT game in town.
They definitely don't even fricking try.
They could EASILY look at massive transaction of gil. It's a dead-giveaway.
They could look into it EASILY but they won't do shit as always.
>hasnt cracked down on that
they are very aware of it, by letting a certain degree of "competition" you give people the illusion that they can't do much about it. Meanwhile, even their devs sell carries
There have been numerous instances of cheating over the years but they all got instabanned so nobody really does it anymore.
e.g. terrain/map editing in AQ
not sure about wow raiders but in pvp they cheat A LOT. they used addons that gave you inhuman reflexes on stuns, interrupts, and dispels. it made certain classes like resto druids and rogues in tbc wow fricking unbearable to fight because they can keep you crowd controlled perfectly with the diminishing return counter.
>it made certain classes like resto druids and rogues in tbc wow fricking unbearable to fight because they can keep you crowd controlled perfectly with the diminishing return counter.
Those are just normal addons. I mean PVP's 101. Everyone use them since vanilla times.
you can keep track of the timer but any human will make errors combined with server latency. these addons ignored the human and latency factor making it execute the moment the server packet went through.
Those are just addons though, and technically you could do that shit without addons since there's an ingame stopwatch.
The only real cheat back then was that some people had auto kick scripts, but I seriously doubt anyone uses those anymore because it's really not necessary.
And I guess you could say botting bgs to grind for gear is also cheating, that was rampant back then.
Wanting to be like WoW is a mistake anyway...
It's a bad game.
Why not aspire for something better? Fights for the sake of fights? Not for some stupid...
Zenos is crying...
>Worlds first are cheaters who use third party to get the clear
Wooow! No way! Who saw that coming? It's almost as if XIV lacks an anti-cheat or a vigilant team monitoring such blatant breeches of the TOS!
Hmmm... I wonder what could change going forward! Do you think they'll implement these vital parts of running a fricking live service and quality control to their game?
Yeah! I'm sure they totally give a single wet FRICK and will do that! They love their cul- I mean playerbase!
Cheers XIV sisters we win again!
>wanting intrusive spyware to be forcibly installed on your computer so that people can't do a thing that doesn't negatively impact you whatsoever (or just impact you at all)
YoshiP has literally stated multiple times he doesn't want to completely crackdown on plugins and mods because he doesn't want to put instrusive stuff like this into the game.
YoshiP is also on record saying that 200 ping should have no impact on gameplay but there are mechanics in the game where death is based on RNG if your ping is higher than 150 or even if you experience slight packet loss, let alone the fact that jobs are balanced around doubleweaving and 200 not only makes it impossible but single weaves can still clip at times. The fix is incredibly simple (stop resetting animation lock when packets return, you'll still have the intended natural animation lock) but they refuse to acknowledge it because they don't notice it.
This, it doesnt just remove animation lock, it just mitigates an unintended aspect of the way its really poorly implemented, which is some of the few remaining dregs of the issue that caused the game to have an extra 500ms-1s extra latency on the clientside back in ARR. It's a bug, not an intended feature of how the game is supposed to work, which by that logic means that NOT doing anything to fix it is actually cheating, cause thats the game not working as intended.
rofl they had to know there could be consequences! was this 9th man a long time player? did they think that he would just roll over? if he was new they should've expected this, no loyalty for new members.

well, ain't that a shame. I guess now it's my time to get hundreds of hours of gameplay from the island. you can always unsubscribe and play something else if you're unhappy with the state of the game. You don't have to be shackled by the game, you know. Or you could always keep giving them money while complaining on the Taiwanese basket-weaving forum. I'm sure you will eventually accomplish something by doing so >You objectively make less than the discord troony spreadsheet because they autistically model it every week.

When you push your majority away you become blizzard. That's exactly where SE is heading right now with these moronic decisions.
I would raid if the game had an actual fun job system.
Imagine doing the same homosexual ass rotation with no freedom of choice with static as frick pre-determined builds every fight.
That's not fun. That's boring as frick.
People only defend it because they're pissed off and admitting it sucks means they gotta face the fact that the game sucks as a whole and sunk-cost-fallacy prevents them from taking it out on the devs so they take it out on those who complain.
This.
Instead they just continue to dumb down the game to the point when the actual gameplay is a chore. It's fricking hilarious when you think about it.
Because pic related. They don't want challenge, they want the illusion of challenge and the prestige from beating said challenging content even if they have to cheat to do it. They do not actually pride themselves on overcoming obstacles.
How's it cheating? Not on any side just curious. Does it move yourself for you, remind you how to resolve mechs, or does it 100% exactly do the mech for you and tell you when and where to stand?
Honestly it barely does what having a 80' screen would do, give you a massive field of view, you don't see anything you couldn't see with it.
People making a fuss about it are wildly exagerating and starting shit because nips have always accused western players of cheating in past World First races so now we get a chance to fire back.
ultimates are cheaper to produce than creating a new model and new animations and a new arena. one ultimate might be worth 0.75 trials. they would not be making this content if they weren't able to reuse assets for most of it.
okay? Why not reuse models to make Ex/savage levels fights? there's literally like 7 years worth of random bosses from shit like alliance raids that could be turned into actual trials. Instead all you got is unreal fights.
well, because all of the models with animations ready to make new content for outside of alliance raid bosses already have high difficulty versions. i'm with you that alliance raid shit should have a higher difficulty mode but there's really not much for them to pick from that doesn't already have a savage or extreme. like, i doubt the team internally sees much point in producing an extreme difficulty version of proto carbuncle for example. why bother? how slim is the pool of people that are for extremes and will select that content over doing savages?
Ultimates didn't do shit, morons from their casual Black person sphere kept crying the classes were too complicated to play with. And even with the over moronation then won't even play the game, they are too busy spamming modded emotes.
After they realized the mess they did. I remember to this day the fricktards that played WAR that culminated in this unholy abomination. Crits are important wah wah, we need guaranteed crits waah my FC don't feel good :~~*((
There you go Inner Release, what Berserk too difficult for your simpleton mind to manage it?
Ok lets merge it. Oh shit you don't know how to time your cooldown and manage your rage? Ok lets do it in charges where it only affect FC.
At this point I'm just expecting then to make the PvP combo official for PvE and turn WAR into a 3 button class.
I want another Ishgard Restoration set of content, building that shit step by step was the most this game has felt like an actual MMO in ages. Axe the competitive shit from it though because that shit was one hundred percent bottled.
>normalgay sites like Yahoo News and gamespark published articles about this
That's disastrous PR for the game, the suits at SE aren't gonna like this.
Will this be the final nail in the coffin that will force Yoshida's hand into implementing an anticheat?
oh hey I remember that
when I was progging tea my healer had this shit and still failed that p3 mechanic with circles even after we cleared
i found out only after watching vod of his stream that he's been cheating all this time

>Being able to draw whatever you want or seeing your opponents hand, which is more busted?
Objectively its being able to draw whatever you want, you can force setups that are impossible to counter outside of hyper specific means they'd need to build around.
That makes sense. I can't see where the opposite would be preferable, unless you had a substantially weaker deck and mind reading would be preferable, but then you'd still lose anyway.
>Being able to draw whatever you want or seeing your opponents hand, which is more busted?
Objectively its being able to draw whatever you want, you can force setups that are impossible to counter outside of hyper specific means they'd need to build around.
yami's skill was even more busted than that. he literally changed fate with his conviction. meaning he could change the card into something that wasn't originally in his deck. even yugi was suprised by this in his duel with him.
>I think the Japanese community is less aware of that though.
you mean the Japanese community that sent death threats to the devs until they blocked markers in combat? did you start in endwalker?
XIV private servers don't work because all fight scripting is serverside only so at best you still need to see what casts look like and let debuffs conclude to be able to imperfectly emulate it, which a piece of paper or mspaint can do much faster.
Killing the heart or letting it live made no difference except that Alexander gets the enigma codex which doesn't do anything to the rest of the mechanic until Alexander comes back and starts killing everyone. Killing the heart still fails the mechanic because you don't know where he's going to drop his laser so that means there's a right way to solve it where Alexander stops being an issue.
An exploding crystal still gave the heart a buff even if it didn't physically contact it, strats only put all the crystals right next to the heart now so nobody dies to the exploding crystals by standing on the other side of the arena.
I think this plugin its too hot for the main repository but if I'm not mistaken you can do your entire rotation with a single button. If those fricks already used zoom and whatever troony trick what guarantee they didn't use this one either
Precisely why WF only matters to incel virgins. There's literally nothing you get from being WF in XIV. At least WoW has an achievement for it. In XIV you just have the rewards before everyone else who's dong it.
Top players in EVERY game genre cheat, who gives a shit. The only mistake the other teams made was not cheating harder.
And who gives a shit even harder in xiv of all games.
The new ultimate weapons fricking suck too.
What's the real reward for doing it agian? The dumb ass title?
Fricking hell, you raid trannies are whipped hard.
you can say this about any fricking game in existence, obviously theres a certain amount of information that must be held from the player devs have been doing this since the dawn of time you absolute moron.
Wow doesnt have this issue, you can literally have all the noise reminders, bar reminders, and markers you want in the hard raids and the encounter is still hard. The devs recognize people will want an edge, so they set an upper limit of sorts for what kind of addons can be made and used.
Contrast this with FF14/Yoship who just hopes noone uses addons, and makes encounters in a naive way. The result is illegitimated world first kills . I bet not even one WF kill in FF14 history has been legit.
Considering that even with zoom hacks it still took them 6 days of constantly progging to clear the fight I'd say it was pretty hard regardless of having some cheats to help.
It's factually not cheating in WoW. Blizzard designs the fights around making the addon developers do all the hard work of telegraphing stuff for them.
In FFXIV the fights are designed around the stuff the typical players have, just like what you're saying Blizzard does. For Blizzard it's just that the typical player is an addon user and in FFXIV the typical player (these WF morons are not typical players) don't use addons and actively shun people who do.
Literally the same circumstance.

Yes. Lack of barriers is why video games sucks now. Consoles were mistake.
It's almost as if FF people doesn't want their game to turn into the shitshow that is addons in WoW.
Want to beat a boss? I sure hope you have 10 addons installed for it, the game sure as shit doesn't give you any of the info needed to beat it otherwise.
I don't know man watching all this and like having to balance your game around cheating because *some* people cheat does not feel right
Either they should come harder and ban people who cheat or design content that cheating cannot occur which I don't know if that's possible on FFXIV
>Everyone expected old feast rewards >Nah, have some recolors of ARR armors after two seasons.
I am capped and with several levels unspent and already bought all the stuff I wanted.
That top is so disappointing.
You can tell the majority of the glam you get from the island is female-first from the design stage.
Males are literally a fricking afterthought. It's pretty aggravating to see the small pool of shit guys get that looks half-way decent.
I think this game has some serious issues lately with putting shit on the sides of the arena and forcing you to pirouette your camera like crazy, it's really apparent in some of these later ultimates but I guess it's part of the difficulty
If widescreen monitors have such an advantage I kinda wish I was legally allowed to
I feel like the hp/mp font is a little bit different from what we have currently in game
did they changed that with some expansion or do my eyes play tricks on me
If there's any actual problem FF14 has, its not cheating, its that any high end content that isn't the core Extreme/Savage/Ultimate experience, they have absolutely fricking terrible rewards for the absurd amount of time and effort they take.
YoshiP should stop being a pussy and add interesting gear stuff like trinkets. Change the fricking substat meta, introduce item set. Something to spice that shit up we are in this stale stuff since what? Heavensward?
Fricking SE CEO Black person should get punted from the chair shit is already pure profit venture, invest a little don't need to go in the fricking red expand the fricking golden goose.
the issue with 'interesting' gear means it becomes mandatory. as boring as gearing is, it is possible to get and doesn't actually matter outside parsing
If done right you have access to multiple choices instead of ok this is the only meta choice and you gimping yourself with it. In the end its all math.
Bozja had haste gear but they pussied out and made the Haste only work inside Bozja
The only saving grace of Bozja to be honest, the gear was fun. Sad it only worked there I almost had a taste of ARPG when using it and that was enough to me have joy.
the least they could do is put that into criterion/variant dungeons or something.
we already have basic customised actions just add something more
They could just put the 630 ilvl gear rewards there from the same pool of raids. Its not like you are having easy with the savage version.
the issue with 'interesting' gear means it becomes mandatory. as boring as gearing is, it is possible to get and doesn't actually matter outside parsing
Like honestly if I were to actually look at what all the different forms of high end content are that isnt Extreme/Savage/UIltimate, its Deep Dungeons, Field Operation Raids (BA/DRS), Criterion Dungeons, Full BLU syncing. All of these have basically just terrible rewards and barely any to begin with, or function as worse materia farms than just doing hunt trains, or the gear from them is completely useless. I'd excuse BLU cause its not current content job but its rewards are still complete garbage anyway. If there's gear its almost completely useless junk save the relic weapons (only the final upgrade at 4.55/5.55 obviously), i don't get why they're so terrified of just letting us have more options.
Its fricked up the only time content like this ever actually gave good gear was the original fricking version of Diadem.
>Its fricked up the only time content like this ever actually gave good gear was the original fricking version of Diadem.
and they cucked that because raid trannies b***hed.
I'm still mad they got their way. Relics were a perfectly fine alternative AND required more hours to obtain than savage weapons. There was no need to ruin this option.
i just want more fun skills in pve/pvp. they neutered out all the fun. i cant even have reduced fall damage in pvp anymore on ninja because shitters complain too much that i gank them too hard.
Raiding is so cringe, stinky homosexuals who follow a fricking schedule to play a game repeating the same mechanics every new patch with a twist. Legit scum of any MMO, should always bully these homosexuals to suicide.

"FF14" High-difficulty content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" Fastest Clearing Team Appears, but Uses External Tools? A video believed to be a whistleblower surfaced
A team has appeared that has cleared the highly difficult content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" added to the MMORPG "Final Fantasy XIV", but suspicions have surfaced that they may have used a prohibited external tool. increase.
[2 images in total]
At the center of suspicion is a Japanese team called "UNNAMED_". The team cleared the high-difficulty content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" that was implemented at 19:00 on January 24th in 153 hours from the implementation, and won the top of the "Raid Race" aiming for the world's first clear.
However, in the meantime, images and videos have been uploaded that may have been cleared using an external tool called "zoom hack". Zoom Hack allows you to see the entire field by manipulating the field of view, so it is advantageous to capture gimmicks such as attack signs. In this work, the use of external tools is not permitted under any circumstances, and it is possible that the game was cleared illegally.
Since the team did not distribute the state of the capture, it is said that it may be a whistleblower from a support member within the team. At the time of writing, none of the team members have tweeted an explanation.
FF14's use of external tools became a hot topic during the previous high-difficulty content "Zetsuryu Shisen". In response, producer and director Naoki Yoshida once again announced that the use of external tools is strictly prohibited.
Their mods are trying to sweep that shit under the rug.
Just show they don't give a flying frick regarding US, you can discuss whatever and they won't do shit there.
they can't really say shit because this same raid team also did world first P8S and I'm pretty sure they congratulated them on that shit. So expect total silence from now on
lmao arthars saying they did a great job in the stream before and wishing he had poached some players to his own team and now saying that offline prog/world race is a complete joke
The rolepalyers won't go anywhere. They have nowhere else to go. Every other game with an RP community has killed their community, or XIV cannibalized them.
They do. Almost all my friends who play xiv casually (don't erp, normies with jobs etc) use mods. The guys use nude mods and the girls use weird clothing mods.
moron. Your friends are not normies, they're weird outcasts like you. No normal person uses nude mods, that's exclusively the 0.1% most depraved people. I guarantee less than 5% of players use any mods at all, not counting ACT for parsing(and even that is only the 10%-15% or so of players who run Savage). A good chunk of the playerbase is also on PS4/5 and can't use mods even if they wanted to.
Even my own weird friends don't use mods. They use separate programs where they can load in and pose character models outside of the game, but nothing when actually playing the game.
I'll gladly sacrifice my QoL plugins if it means death to all modbeasts.
Cosmetic mods and there consequences have been a disaster for the FFXIV community.
...and? I socialize just fine without mods. The worst that's happened is someone sent me pics of how my character looks on their modded setups. I said "hot" and moved on.
You don't mind everyone being prostituted up 24/7 and acting haughty and better than you for being "fun" and "lewd"?

They're not going to bother putting resources into setting up an anti-cheat tool, since people always circumvent them, and this kind of shit doesn't affect regular gameplay for 99% of the playerbase.
I'm saying they shouldn't complicate the game's installer and performance requirements for an extreme minority that don't affect the game for the vast majority. The most cheaters do is sell runs, which SE could (and should) outright ban instead.
Cheaters affect the game for me by devaluing my Savage clears and making it harder for me to recruit static members that have integrity. A lot of cheating shitters will be weeded out by anticheat.
Parsegays fricking hate the two minute burst window more than anyone because they're the only players that actually care about it because they want to hold damage so they can go into their burst window again for a higher number
casuals don't give a shit about muh two minute windows because they don't even use any abilities in content they just press 1 over and over
And if you stop being moronic looking for a bogeyman you'll notice the only ones benefited by 2 min design are raid designers that now only need to design mechanics around one single burst window timing. Parsing has nothing to do with this.
What is the pop that does ultimate 5% of the playerbase?
Its gonna be a nothing burger for sure, at worst they will give more preview on 7.0 saying they will address it somehow there and people will forget about it.

There are multiple catty little homosexuals saying something almost exactly like this in every thread, but none of you catty little homosexuals ever mention what """other""" mods they're using.

If they're complaining about xivalexander, all it does it spoof packets so you don't get animation locked. Essentially it makes your input between gcd perfect.

You decide if this is why it is there or not.
It's not a runtime setting moron. It very specifically says that if you modify the CONSTANT in the code you'll be cheating.

To be more specific, XIVAlex only does it buy an amount relative to your ping, noclippy also does a similar thing. It also just affects animation lock, it doesn't magically fix latency. Honestly the animation lock shit is just bad anyway and it makes some jobs hell to play if you don't have an absurdly fast connection, it really shouldn't be there to begin with and its largely a holdover the shitty universal input lag the game had back in the day. It doesn't make it impossible to clip, you still absolutely can especially if you have high latency, it won't fix the fact that you may need to get out of the way of an AoE like a half second before the cast finishes to not get clipped, it just solves a shitty artificial problem the game made itself and animation smoothing while transitioning between attack animations makes it so all your animations still look find even if they're cut early.
Also like, using XIVAlex to "cheat" is basically useless because there's literally no reason to modify the code to let you abuse it unless you wanna double weave with full Haste gear on MNK in Bozja.
nips don't need xivalexander
how about no troon troon

is this also splatoon?
I'm not sure about this one, might be older. I know that there was a private tool that did the same back in early ShB as well, I recall seeing a video of it showing Limit Cut cone/line/circle.
Reminds me of a mod in WoW that showed up in late WotLK that would do the same thing and they changed the backend so it wouldn't work. I guess the XIV devs either don't care or can't figure out how to do the same thing.
Ah yeah that thing, I think it got killed off by 3.3.3 or 3.3.5a. If I remember it essentially software rendered 3D warning areas via drawing primitives.
Pity it had to die; it was fun drawing race tracks in Durotar and racing around them since AVR shared it with everyone in the raid.

In a perfect world the game would have a FoV slider and zoom hacks wouldn't work, but I'll take the FoV hack even if it means people will ZOOOOM.
Shit like Cactbot is actual cheats.
>unless mechanics rely on limited information
But that is exactly what they do.
Yeah you're right, is definitely cheating in a competitive setting.
I just don't feel like it's cheaty enough to be lumped in with overlays and bots. Particularly since the usefulness as a cheating tool diminishes after the first clears are completed and tactics are written out.
It's still fricked that you gain such an enormous advantage for playing on an ultrawide monitor over 16:9 if you don't use any hacks.
the fight relys on limited information and they are using zoomhacks to circumvent it. it would be like if you could zoom out the same level as replay viewers in dota 2. it absolutely breaks competitions. thats why its only allowed in replays and not actual matches.
I find it hilarious that for years FFXIV players made fun of WoW players for using addons, and then they shamelessly use them themselves in a scenario where it's actually cheating instead of being a raiding aid.
Is SE going to do anything about this? Kill the plugins somehow, or just give up and incorporate them in the base game or what?
YoshiP has said that they're never going to put anything in the game that would allow them to detect you altering game files.
>fixing the ping lock is cheating
have a nice day wowBlack person. DBM was mandatory because of the useless devs not making anything clear.
>Is SE going to do anything about this?
No, because most of Crystal and half the raiding side of the game would just stop playing
>the modbeasts and raidtrannies will stop playing
FRICKING
GOOD
so less than a percent of the player base?
>WoWtards start pouring into the game
>chests, add-ons, third party tools start flooding the mod scene
Really makes the noodles ache
I remember the first thing a bunch of streamers did when they started playing this game was install a bunch of addons to make their UI fricking moronic looking.
One streamer threw a giant fit when he the ban scare was going around for streamers using addons, but that was kind of typical of him anyway.
It's JP so it's ok

More like zero eggs
It's actually the opposite of okay.
>JP has autistic meltdowns over using even innocent shit like gshade
>These people embarrassed the entire community in front of the global playerbase
They're going to be crucified.
>>JP has autistic meltdowns over using even innocent shit like gshade
What the frick are you smoking? japs love gshade and have autistic meltdowns about there being no jp support for it so they have to create guides on their own
Did Arthars say anything? He was proud because his SMN that ditched his group was in the world first team that got caught cheating, but he privated his VOD, and I wonder if he knew before he logged off for the night
He was seething at addon shit back during DSR
Is the mouseover plugin considered cheating? It's significantly faster than clicking and console players can't even use it.
Yeah, it is.
Macros have no queue for this reason.
It's stupid catering to controllergays but it's like that by design.
Does that even matter in a gamel with 200 ms latency on every action?
It's ok when Japan does it.
>s-stop w-w-witch hunting...yamete kudasai
The XIV brims with cheating scum, and is permeated by their rotten addons. Just think, now you're all set to report and ban to your hearts content - report in co-operation with your fellows, your honest raiders.

>oopsie woopsie my stream was not unlisted
>I only used it to check it for a friend
>balance troony immediately locks the comment and removes the link
is this a hack tho? looks more like an overlay like the GW2 ones that don't inject shit in the game and just sycs with what's happening on the screen and this is allowed by the devs in that mmo btw
Yoshi-P said last year that third party tools aren't supposed to be used.
>doesnt enforce it ever
no prease do mah shitty fight i rove u rong time
Yeah but they've made it clear they don't want to put in measures to try and prevent them because they'd be too intrusive, which I respect infinitely more since I rather some frickers run around with whatever plugins than be stuck with spyware on my computer.
In the end the actual problems here are that acknowledging World First races gives too much legitimacy to an ultimately meaningless achievement, the real solution is to either basically just like, try and delegitimize WF racing to kill off this desire of morons to cheat in it, or hyper-enforce it and treat it like they did the Ishgard Restoration rankings, with people making considerable progress CONSTANTLY monitored for a period. Any form of camera hacks also do leave a trace on the serverside, so it would just take a GM watching would 100% be able to tell.
I do think 14 should probably increase the maximum zoom a little bit, but what that one guy did with zoomhacks is absolutely fricking excess and comical.
>Any form of camera hacks also do leave a trace on the serverside, so it would just take a GM watching would 100% be able to tell.
Not in this game where only instanced fights and loot are serverside
He doesn't give a frick unless it's something that impacts other players. There's numerous visual addons like gshade or other addons that replaces SMN's summons with shit like Alexander, and no one cares if someone's using that. I think the only time they banned people for visual mods was when too many degens were posting their horsewienered in-game characters on twitter.
Ryne poster was banned for posting nude Rynes.
The real issue is posting screenshots with the watermark visible. Can't give the impression that the tiddies are official content available in the game.
It has the potential to cause legal issues.
It reads game state from memory in order to draw stuff before it's even telegraphed in the game. The GW2 thing only reads your character's current coordinates, which is an official API.
Yeah it's the same thing.
It's not technically a hack, but it is a cheating tool. The fights often rely on invisible attacks you have to use other means to align yourself to avoid.
>sirs we need to come up with new mechanics that make the gameplay more difficult
>what about image shape retaining or mandatory choreographic paths
>or how about some mathematical problems on the go like that asiatic isometric mmo?
>homie just make the boss attacks invisible lmao
>genius!
You don't play video games and you never will.
jheez anon, you're so smart how come you haven't joined their encounter design team yet
That's the type of shit that's in the game.
It's not the same attacks just invisible, it can be something like In Normal mode, the attack is a stack marker that appears for 5 seconds before it goes off and that's the mechanic.
In Savage, it's a cast you have to memorize for the following minute where you avoid a bunch of attacks while healing and DPSing the boss, then depending on which cast it was you either have to all spread or stack in predefined pairs or you all die.
If you had markers the memorization element wouldn't exist.
With cheats, you have the markers including the range of the explosions.
One of mechanics in Savage/Ultimate content is the lack of overlay markers for some mechanics. Ultimates have a lot of them. You're not supposed to see them. They cheat by using addon
As someone who does not play FFXIV and just trying to read through and make sense, doesn't this completely invalidates the whole point of the Ultimate difficulty?
You mean people are calling it cheating because it's cheating?
So in normal content you have those markers on the ground by default, but they go away on the Ultimate difficulty, correct?
And then those top raiders add them back via add-ons
I see, thanks for explaining.
Man this whole situation doesn't seem very fun for anyone.
Ultimates in XIV are different from WoW. They're designed as endurance puzzle solving dance. I think only few times on JP datacenter people were able to pug Ultimate. At the end of raid they were like a FC (guild) static. gays want to reduce load by using cheat addons when game wasn't designed for them. This is for example how legendary UCoB "dance" looks like
https://clees.me/guides/ucob/
What anime?
Yakuza 8: Maid Cafe Boogaloo
Does default Ganker not have WAIT?
>asiaticmoot making any changes to improve the UX on the 4chins
Anon, please.
Okay so Ultimate fights are like a big endurance test to see if the players can remember the boss attack patterns and gimmicks without visual aid
So it's not just markers on the ground to avoid attacks, they're like "Hey go attack this orange orb in a sea of yellow orbs" or things like that
Reading it sounds like a neat challenge, like a neat difficulty. But reading through the thread it seems like hell though.
Well, thanks for elaborating it further. Have a nice evening!
>seems like hell though
Yeah imagine slogging through 20 minutes of a fight and then you wipe because one person didn't Simon Says properly and you go back the start
No, you really don't get it at all.
Ultimates are completely different from other difficulties, not just the same attacks but without visual aid. The challenge isn't to remember things, it's to solve the puzzles. If you don't play the game it's going to be impossible for you to understand just how complex the combat puzzles are and why it is so hard to figure them out and execute correctly.
The attacks not having floor AoEs is a non-issue for any competent player - the mid-level difficulties also have that.
It's never simple things like that.
It's things like this: 4 players get a color over their head that makes them take constant damage. If two players with different colors touch, everyone dies. If a player with a color touches a player without a color, the color infects the other person. A color lasts for 30 seconds after you get it, then goes away.
A few minutes after the colors first appear, the boss gives every player an order to have a specific randomized color at a specific time. If even one player has the wrong color or no color at that time, everyone dies. All the while, over a dozen different attacks are happening from two different bosses at the same time, forcing players to dodge, hide, group up, spread out and so on - and in the middle of this they have to somehow get the right colors onto the right people.
That's just one tiny part of an Ultimate.
That's not what it is. Ultimates are a complete reimagining of a bunch of bosses turned into a boss gauntlet that stacks several mechanics that were not seen together before in a single pack, usually mechanics are pure random so being able to set priorities and adjust is king, and the several individual health bars makes holding and pumping dps for different phases important.
In most cases you see completely new mechs just loosely inspired on the older bosses. And ultimates are 16-19 minutes long compared to savage which are 14 minutes at most with several breathing room mechanics.
Please actually watch an Ultimate
Yeah. Turns out some people don't enjoy the challenge and just do it for the prestige.
yes but square is moronic so they give every ultimate fight Korean MMO glowy weapons and cringe as frick player titles that result in every moron wantting to do them.
Meanwhile if you do the new savage dungeon they added you get literally nothing
Ultimate mechanics are still cancer but yeah.
>use plugin that lets you zoom out as much as you want
NOoOOooooo YOU CAN'T DO THAT ITS CHEATING YOUR NOT MEANT TO SEE THE WHOLE ARENA
>use plugin to reduce GCD lock from ping
heckin fine and mandatory for top raiders
Both of these are unironically developed by the same plugin author, btw. and that's not even talking about XIVAlex which is worse since it is a literal DLL hack that can be used to reduce GCD speeds below what is humanly possible
It's so you don't get locked in you massive moron. Holy shit, you are a stupid fricking Black person.
>playing with the intended JP ping is cheating
>literal DLL hack that can be used to reduce GCD speeds below what is humanly possible
As I know you still can't do that. Plus if it was possible everyone would notice. Your log and DPS.
You *can* set the XIVA values below what's possible, iirc, but it has fifty warning bells that you shouldn't do that or else ding dong bannu.
the shithub readme literally told you not to do that at one point
Did anyone try to do that?
>use plugin to reduce GCD lock from ping
>heckin fine and mandatory for top raiders
Yes, these fricking asiatic devs don't give a shit about the problems NA/EU encounters so people made their own fixes
fixing GCD lock isn't going to make you prog faster, or make you solve mechanics any quicker
zoom hack will increase prog speed exponentially by trivializing solving mechanics, probably by hours/days
not hard to figure out why one is worse than the other anon, unless you're being purposely bad faith

that's just as bad
they're both cheats
stop strawmanning
The game is not designed to have clipping. In fact, DPS checks are not tuned for anything other than perfect dummy rotations.
I really do not give a rat ass about people using cheats but it's always hilarious that whenever this topic gets brought up it's always the type of people who would afk in quicksand/limsa and frequenting RP bar screaming the loudest thinking their opinion worth a shit.
any of you not in a static but want to make one? i want to do TOP. i'm on primal ultros. pretty sure that's the Ganker server anyway. we can bond over not being cheaters.
shamelessly reposting my advertisement/request
based jp making trannies seethe. I hope they use more plugins for the next ultimate.
so how easy is to mod/cheat this shitty mmo? might try it just to have some hours of fun and mess with other ppl
there aren't any cheats you can use to mess with people, it's all client side modifications, which is why they can't ban you for it since SE won't check your PC for files or running processes (unless you literally stream yourself doing it)

I'm not talking about that.
Have you seriously never seen someone speed hacking?
People do it fairly often with DRG LB
No they don't do it fairly often. There's ONE in my datacenter that doesn't even play that often and is stuck in Diamond because he's trash even with the speedhack.
>See someone in PVP baiting to knock people off ledges
>They cannot be knocked back or pulled themselves
>See people moving while casting LBs that you can't actually move during
>See people spamming heals on themselves beyond what is possible
>Instant CC upon hitting specific buttons
It was more prevalent before the PVP changes but absolutely people still do it.
There is no hack for that.
There is, I used to see people speedhack around Frontlines maps spamming DPS LB repeatedly without ever stopping moving.
There's a plugin that automatically pops abilities for you but it sucks against actually good players that will notice and frick you over.
Yeah the cheating is moronic, there's a dragoon on EU that's never getting banned abusing this shit constantly. Thank god the rewards for ranked are garbage still.

If you use Discord, you are cheating. If you were meant to use voice comms, it would be built into the game.
Now use the chat box like you were intended.

I think its because I just freestyle my rotation and dont minmax it with a spreadsheet autist since its not worth it most of the time. I can appreciate SSS more now since a lot of bosses have downtime.
It's good enough, anon. You're at the mercy of crit variance and party consistency, anyway. Just do your mechanics and keep on punching, shit's not worth chasing.

Fat chance

They broke fricking NIN and still havent give a simple notice about it.
I'm fricking malding since the patch drop jesus I cannot Mudra for my life
What happened to NIN? I've been playing it with noclippy and it seems fine?
Mudras aren't responding if I remember correctly. Noclippy has a fix for it.
Is this some fisherprice internet thing? Working like they always did for me.
Mudras have been noticeably fricked since 6.3 launch. They internally changed some code from UDP to TCP and it has caused a lot of issues; that emergency patch a few days after official patch was related to it; but it hasn't fixed all the issues.
Here
That's strange yeah
I keep on hitting mudras and nothing happens
could it be NA specific issue?
do you have noclippy?
I don't use plugins or anything like that
Nah, I haven't noticed the sticky Mudras either.
I still have no idea why NIN's mudras are still not fixed in terms

Why not just add 0.5 CD for double pressing same mudra un row? So you will never able to frick them up?

frick off.
Probably cheating balance discord troony throwing a tantrum
>WTF???? ARE YOU BANNING MY CHAETS???????
>BAN EVERYTHING I WILL NOT SUFFER ALONE
>I need a cheat to make up for me coping about my ping being completely normal
If you're playing on servers within your region there is no issue, no really there isn't, stop making excuses.
But I'm not playing on the server in my region because it's fricking dead.
I play on JP because I used to live in Japan, went from like <20 to over 200 ping
I absolutely do not care, I'm gonna use it because I want the completely normal Japanese experience I had back, or at least part of it cause it sure doesn't fix any other latency caused problem
cheating is cheating anon, no excuses
If im doing something that assuming I had better ping would still be completely achievable, its still something achievable in game and therefore isn't cheating, hell even with XIVAlex I'd still perform better with better ping because it makes you have more time to move for mechanics, since higher latency effectively makes mechanics snapshot sooner on the player end.
Zoomhacks let you do things with the camera that no matter the circumstances, cannot be achieved in game, therefore it is cheating. Same goes with stuff like movement hacks or teleport hacks, they're not otherwise achieveable in game in any circumstance, ergo are cheating.
Thats how I see it, you can not agree I don't really care either way.
You're using a cheat to cope that your ping isn't as low as it should be, which isn't even true because your ping is exactly what it should be, 200, because you are playing in the wrong regional servers.
Alex itself has been used to do extremely shady shit like triple weaving and beyond and it exist on a "well we won't go THAT far with it" mentality.
YoshiP is also on record saying that 200 ping should have no impact on gameplay but there are mechanics in the game where death is based on RNG if your ping is higher than 150 or even if you experience slight packet loss, let alone the fact that jobs are balanced around doubleweaving and 200 not only makes it impossible but single weaves can still clip at times. The fix is incredibly simple (stop resetting animation lock when packets return, you'll still have the intended natural animation lock) but they refuse to acknowledge it because they don't notice it.
>200 ping should have no impact on gameplay
Titan says hi.
READ homie

>but there are mechanics in the game where death is based on RNG if your ping is higher than 150 or even if you experience slight packet loss
Can confirm, I had to develop fordola-tier echo irl go git gud with my ping.
No matter what excuse you want to come up with it's still a cheat and you are using it.
The servers in my "region" are 2500 miles away
>Piss and shit themselves 24/7 about the lack of "MUH HARD CONTENT, GAME TO EZ WHERE MUH RAIDS YOSHITPISS!!"

I genuinely hope they cut funding for Raidtrannie projects and divert the funds to Buuz physics in MSQ cutscenes, these people are fricking drain on this game at this point.
I've been saying that since DSR got delayed. More difficult dungeons and trials.
Yes please.
Go back and redo all the "hard modes" into actually hard dungeons and flip some hard mode dungeons into other level ranges.
Then add them to a special roulette with unique token rewards like Unreals.

Is this the power of FF14 raiders? Unable to clear a simple fight without plugins?
isnt that every mmo? wow players use addons. ffxi players use addons. gw2 players use addons. everquest players use addons. addons are just a mmo thing.
I have never used a plugin and I have cleared Ults and Week 1'd tiers.
Guild Wars similarly, I did not use mods and still did well enough.
gw2 is pretty tight against addons, much more so than xiv at least, you only really get a dps meter which the devs explicitly allow, and only that one
>isnt that every mmo? wow players use addons. ffxi players use addons.
Not so.
WOW developers envisioned addon issue and stated to design game around addons since vanilla release.
In ffxi addons are part of cheats. Basically all cheating allowed because of addons. It's so easy and you can't do anything about it. They're part of gearswap even though you can do it vanilla way by using macro. Basically FFXI addons allowed cheating for everyone. And yeah 95% if XI population are bots. It doesn't have anti-cheat and people admit botting and cheating because

>zoom is now reduced to 50%
I mean during TEA he "patched" the ability to move markers during combat because of addon gays used. And this change only hurt normal players.
what does a normal player need with moveable markers?
Someone fricking up mechanic in pubs. Limited usage to adapt in bad situations.
Nothing. People rarely use markers in anything that isn't EX or higher. Sometimes you see them in alliance raids, but that's usually for group placement. It's just some raidBlack person seething about not being able to have a mod play the game for them.
Cry on stream and say that they'll fix it on 7.0 or some other lie.
Hopes and dreams for 7.0?
Reality check?
he wont, he see raiders as Black folk
same way they reacted to ungarmax. ban people, change some stuff on the backend, tell players not to be shit heads.
hopefully add a restriction that all world first players HAVE to stream it

Do WoW racers ever cheat?
its pretty widespread known that world first racers in WoW buy gold from RMT chinks to fund their world first requirements
Their encounters are designed with their addons in mind.
their cheats are legal so it's not cheating
Given that addons are whatever for Blizz, the only cheating part is buying gold from Chang to finance their adventure. Like ludicrous amounts

this shits legal

Raidtrannies live like this
no, the world firsts in WoW have been public since wotlk and wow has functional anti-cheat. there's been some dodgy bans at times from guilds using exploits to disable raid mechanics (killing a player at the right time or standing in certain spots), but nothing like infinite_life.exe type cheats
the only thing people argue is the massive amounts of gold borrowing they do from RMT cartels that they pay back with interest, but it's all kept in-game.
>the only thing people argue is the massive amounts of gold borrowing they do from RMT cartels that they pay back with interest, but it's all kept in-game.
I'm surprised Blizzard hasn't cracked down on that, since it's in their financial interest to be the only RMT game in town.
the world first raiding guilds are too big to punish for it
they've dismantled a few of them recently. the biggest ones all got hit.
No one can stop RMT. It's impossible.
They definitely don't even fricking try.
They could EASILY look at massive transaction of gil. It's a dead-giveaway.
They could look into it EASILY but they won't do shit as always.
They will just appear instantly again. Fresh 1000 accs. RMT exist if there is market for it.
Trying costs money. Never going to happen when the only goal of games is making as much money for as little work as possible.
>hasnt cracked down on that
they are very aware of it, by letting a certain degree of "competition" you give people the illusion that they can't do much about it. Meanwhile, even their devs sell carries
Wasn't there a thing in AQ or whatever where people were using some kind of hack and clipping through geometry to skip bosses?
yea, you use to be able to modify textures very easily, but the game engine detects that nowadays very easily.
their game is literally made around DBM so addons are pretty much mandatory
Nah. In WoW it's not considering cheating having a team of programmers clear the fight for you.
in the very early days of vanilla, people used to hack the map files to edit out a floor so people can shortcut to a boss in the ahn qiraj raid.
There have been numerous instances of cheating over the years but they all got instabanned so nobody really does it anymore.
e.g. terrain/map editing in AQ
not sure about wow raiders but in pvp they cheat A LOT. they used addons that gave you inhuman reflexes on stuns, interrupts, and dispels. it made certain classes like resto druids and rogues in tbc wow fricking unbearable to fight because they can keep you crowd controlled perfectly with the diminishing return counter.
Yeah there were crazy buddyscripts. Not sure if anything still exists I haven't played in years.
>it made certain classes like resto druids and rogues in tbc wow fricking unbearable to fight because they can keep you crowd controlled perfectly with the diminishing return counter.
Those are just normal addons. I mean PVP's 101. Everyone use them since vanilla times.
you can keep track of the timer but any human will make errors combined with server latency. these addons ignored the human and latency factor making it execute the moment the server packet went through.
Those are just addons though, and technically you could do that shit without addons since there's an ingame stopwatch.
The only real cheat back then was that some people had auto kick scripts, but I seriously doubt anyone uses those anymore because it's really not necessary.
And I guess you could say botting bgs to grind for gear is also cheating, that was rampant back then.
Auto kick scripts ignore fake casting right? Or how it was called when you drop cast or cast something different to bait silence/kick.
Just ban everyone raiding ultimate that's not on a console. All of them are doing it.
>ban everyone not on a console
Won't do shit
anything that relies on parsing or modifying packets can still work through mitm
don't care if they "hacked" it, frick, I even consider carries valid at this point
Only idiots don't cheat at video games
Wanting to be like WoW is a mistake anyway...
It's a bad game.
Why not aspire for something better? Fights for the sake of fights? Not for some stupid...
Zenos is crying...
Its funny that blizzard had to kill all the super zoom Addons as well and basically the zoom. Players got super mad about which was funny.
>Worlds first are cheaters who use third party to get the clear
Wooow! No way! Who saw that coming? It's almost as if XIV lacks an anti-cheat or a vigilant team monitoring such blatant breeches of the TOS!
Hmmm... I wonder what could change going forward! Do you think they'll implement these vital parts of running a fricking live service and quality control to their game?
Yeah! I'm sure they totally give a single wet FRICK and will do that! They love their cul- I mean playerbase!
Cheers XIV sisters we win again!
>wanting intrusive spyware to be forcibly installed on your computer so that people can't do a thing that doesn't negatively impact you whatsoever (or just impact you at all)
YoshiP has literally stated multiple times he doesn't want to completely crackdown on plugins and mods because he doesn't want to put instrusive stuff like this into the game.
This, it doesnt just remove animation lock, it just mitigates an unintended aspect of the way its really poorly implemented, which is some of the few remaining dregs of the issue that caused the game to have an extra 500ms-1s extra latency on the clientside back in ARR. It's a bug, not an intended feature of how the game is supposed to work, which by that logic means that NOT doing anything to fix it is actually cheating, cause thats the game not working as intended.
reminder to treat your homie well
rofl they had to know there could be consequences! was this 9th man a long time player? did they think that he would just roll over? if he was new they should've expected this, no loyalty for new members.
wrong, the zoomhack videos was uploaded a day before the clear

I swear the only thing stopping Yoshi from banning modding altogether are bards.

Surly this time yoshi will see ultimate is not worth it and put those resources into making content the playerbase at large will actually do, right?
Yeah except their idea of "content for everyone" is fricking Island Sanctuary
I like island sanctuary
What do you like about it?
The end-game being literally a time-gated weekly piece of shit?
The fact that grinding for EXP on your island is literally tied to being the most boring shit about it with catching animals?
Or is it the fact that you automate and have no hands-on approach available to you so you're essentially waiting as your sub runs out each month for those tiny as frick rewards?
What do you like about this piece of hot shit?
I unironically think a eureka or bozja clone would be better than this pile of steamy shit.
There's NOTHING to do once you're max rank. You get a few glams and mounts and minions and maybe you can buy a few materia but that's IT.
What the frick makes you go "Weeee!!!" when you go into your desolate island?
Jesus christ, dude. Calm down.
>Calm down
I am calm lmao where is your argument?
Do you just like to think that if someone isn't on board with you then they gotta be mad or something? I'm just trying to understand what the frick is going through your head to make you think Island sanctuary is actually good.
Have you finished it? What rank are you?
nta, but I am rank 12 already and I enjoy it
Again, what do you enjoy about it?
Give me some details. I've caught all rare animals, have all types of materials, built all of the things even the otter fountain which was hard to craft but possible, and all I can do now is wait every fricking week as my workshop does it's thing. I literally don't have to lift a finger to make the content "go". Where the frick is the "fun" coming from for you?
Hell, they could have turned the underwater fishing into spearfishing and that would have been more fun than this shit we got.
You just run up to something click and repeat for fricking hours on end and each time it's capped at 10 island exp per gather.
All true.
>Give me some details. I've caught all rare animals, have all types of materials, built all of the things even the otter fountain which was hard to craft but possible
so have I.
I like the workshop autism. I calculate it on my own and don't just use the discord shit. I like the little collecting I have to do when I'm missing something for my workshop agenda.
I like that I'm passively making gil. it's more gil than a fricking retainer.
It requires a special kind of brainrot to enjoy it. I'm not saying you should enjoy it, not everything is for everyone. I'm saying I enjoy it.
I genuinely don't get why you would get so butthurt over someone else liking something you don't enjoy
Because it used up dev resources that normally go to foray content. We could've gotten hundreds of hours of gameplay from a Endwalker eureka/bozja instead.
>calculate it on my own
You objectively make less than the discord troony spreadsheet because they autistically model it every week.
>Because it used up dev resources that normally go to foray content. We could've gotten hundreds of hours of gameplay from a Endwalker eureka/bozja instead.
well, ain't that a shame. I guess now it's my time to get hundreds of hours of gameplay from the island. you can always unsubscribe and play something else if you're unhappy with the state of the game. You don't have to be shackled by the game, you know. Or you could always keep giving them money while complaining on the Taiwanese basket-weaving forum. I'm sure you will eventually accomplish something by doing so
>You objectively make less than the discord troony spreadsheet because they autistically model it every week.
I quite literally could not give less of a frick
Not trying to shit on you for liking an objectively dogshit part of the game, but I am shitting on you for being a total dumbass.
Your opinion is literally worth less than a raid troony right now. At least those homosexuals try to stand for something that COULD be good.
You're dying on a tiny hill right now, morono-kun.
>You're dying on a tiny hill right now, morono-kun.
I'm not dying on anything because I'm not fighting any fight. I enjoy it, that's it. I don't try to force other people to think like me, unlike someone else
>Unlike someone else
Who?
>just unsub
I've already been unsubbed for months.
I WANT to play ffxiv, I have literal thousands of hours, but when served shit like island sanctuary there is no reason to log on.
same brother, same. frick the island
then sub back when there's something that catches your eye. I've been unsubbed for months at a time plenty of times over the years. Just play something else
>It requires a special kind of brainrot to enjoy it.
Well I guess at least you're self-aware. This is literally the most boring shit they've ever made and everyone was hyped for it when they announced it only to shit it out in such a pathetic state.
It's foundation is fricking sand so you can't even expect it to improve in the future.
Enjoy your shit-eating I guess.
I will. Hope you're not subbed if you're not happy with the shit you're being offered
I like it because it's just a small farmville thing you can do if you want, and it's comfy. And I don't get why you feel this strongly about IS.
you're 100% right. island sanctuary was shit.
noooo you don't get it! i love my wagie simulator with zero payoff! it reminds me of my shitty life!!!
^ average sanctuary enjoyer
Their idea of "content for everyone" is shit like eureka and bozja. EW isn't getting an equivalent because they went all in on ultimates lmao.
>surly this will sell our game!
>went all in on Ultimates
>released one delayed Ultimate from last expansion and one actually new one
They should be releasing no ultimates at all. Frick raidtrainnies.
>raiders engage with ultimates
>casuals all abandoned island sanctuary immediately
Eat shit, nothing but raids from now on.
>raiders engage with ultimates
You mean they install addons to cheese mechanics, then get mad at other raiders when it's found out they used addons too lmao. The high end raid scene in any mmo is a fricking joke.
WF Black folk are a different breed anon, most people are unironically content respecters its just that you have to be peak mental illness tier to be a WF raider so you probably have a proclivity to cheating too.
the high end raid scene in all MMOs are:
>Cheaters that use addons
>Gold Buyers from Chinese Hacking Farmers
>People that sell raid completion runs to others in-game for real Paypal money
>Clique as frick guilds/statics that will also turn on your back on a dime
>small percentage of players get something good
>majority of players get stale shit
When you push your majority away you become blizzard. That's exactly where SE is heading right now with these moronic decisions.
god I fricking miss eureka and Bozja. Only times the game actually plays like a fricking MMO.
What the FRICK were they thinking. I'm still expecting a twist.
EVERY STEP WE TAKE
>Raiders cry for hard content
>SE adds hard content
>Raiders then proceed to cheat said hard content with addons
Why are raidgays like this? If they want hard content so bad why do they cheat?
nice you're only the 50th gay to repeat this already!
I would raid if the game had an actual fun job system.
Imagine doing the same homosexual ass rotation with no freedom of choice with static as frick pre-determined builds every fight.
That's not fun. That's boring as frick.
People only defend it because they're pissed off and admitting it sucks means they gotta face the fact that the game sucks as a whole and sunk-cost-fallacy prevents them from taking it out on the devs so they take it out on those who complain.
This.
Instead they just continue to dumb down the game to the point when the actual gameplay is a chore. It's fricking hilarious when you think about it.
Turns out the people crying for hard content are mostly shitters looking to flash their epeen.
Because pic related. They don't want challenge, they want the illusion of challenge and the prestige from beating said challenging content even if they have to cheat to do it. They do not actually pride themselves on overcoming obstacles.
>sour grapes because he can't clear hard content
lmao
How's it cheating? Not on any side just curious. Does it move yourself for you, remind you how to resolve mechs, or does it 100% exactly do the mech for you and tell you when and where to stand?
Like anon said, the program is basically let you doing maphack on FPS or MOBA
Honestly it barely does what having a 80' screen would do, give you a massive field of view, you don't see anything you couldn't see with it.
People making a fuss about it are wildly exagerating and starting shit because nips have always accused western players of cheating in past World First races so now we get a chance to fire back.
because i like hard content and i dont care what wf racers do. i know i do it legit so i dont give a shit.
If the infringement degenerate billboard didn't kill mods idk if this will
before it was just "ohoho only gaijins cheat we dont care" now its damn our home country cheats we gotta do something now.
Actually would preferred if mods were just for ERP. At least ERP guys they are just jerking off with their bros pretending to be girls.
Ultimates are bad for the game. They have utterly destroyed class design. They should be replaced by more EX level content.
Imagine if instead of the ultimate shit we got 2 or 3 more trials. Maybe even more if you consider how much time it takes to create one.
ultimates are cheaper to produce than creating a new model and new animations and a new arena. one ultimate might be worth 0.75 trials. they would not be making this content if they weren't able to reuse assets for most of it.
okay? Why not reuse models to make Ex/savage levels fights? there's literally like 7 years worth of random bosses from shit like alliance raids that could be turned into actual trials. Instead all you got is unreal fights.
well, because all of the models with animations ready to make new content for outside of alliance raid bosses already have high difficulty versions. i'm with you that alliance raid shit should have a higher difficulty mode but there's really not much for them to pick from that doesn't already have a savage or extreme. like, i doubt the team internally sees much point in producing an extreme difficulty version of proto carbuncle for example. why bother? how slim is the pool of people that are for extremes and will select that content over doing savages?
Ultimates didn't do shit, morons from their casual Black person sphere kept crying the classes were too complicated to play with. And even with the over moronation then won't even play the game, they are too busy spamming modded emotes.
That's bullshit. Even the biggest casual cave aka Reddit hates homogenisation and the 2 min meta.
After they realized the mess they did. I remember to this day the fricktards that played WAR that culminated in this unholy abomination. Crits are important wah wah, we need guaranteed crits waah my FC don't feel good :~~*((
There you go Inner Release, what Berserk too difficult for your simpleton mind to manage it?
Ok lets merge it. Oh shit you don't know how to time your cooldown and manage your rage? Ok lets do it in charges where it only affect FC.
At this point I'm just expecting then to make the PvP combo official for PvE and turn WAR into a 3 button class.
I would prefer if they just made more PVP gamemodes. We need a open world pvp zone.
This might be cool actually, but they're creatively bankrupt.
This game fricking sucks.
I wouldn't mind them if they released good shit alongside it.
leave it to the xiv community to milk a situation by bombarding everyone with cringy unfunny memes
xiv is a cultural phenomenon so you'll just have to deal with it.
sorry "stoney tony" didn't gain any traction.
say that about the billboard thing that was so pointless
this actually has repercussions
pvp is the only form of dynamic content in this game and more steps should be taken to make players want to do it,
I want another Ishgard Restoration set of content, building that shit step by step was the most this game has felt like an actual MMO in ages. Axe the competitive shit from it though because that shit was one hundred percent bottled.
>normalgay sites like Yahoo News and gamespark published articles about this
That's disastrous PR for the game, the suits at SE aren't gonna like this.
Will this be the final nail in the coffin that will force Yoshida's hand into implementing an anticheat?
>implementing an anticheat
Raughs in XI.
This is actually how it feels to play XIV on a ultra wide monitor.
Why did he betray them bros?
I love it when cheaters get other people banned in MMOs.
Mr. Brappy bros... how is he gonna be on his high horse when his team was cheating too...
It's really trivial compared to what was going on with Alexander Ultimate. I think the Japanese community is less aware of that though.
TpS didn't use cheats. Stop spreading this myth.
>TpS didn't use cheats
t. sfia
their addon called out the mechanic before they could visually see it
Couldn't this be done with an egg timer though?
the addon pattern cannot be predicted until the player sees it but the addon calls out the pattern exactly before they see it.
what mechanic are you even talking about
Any mechanic tracking or callout done by an external tool or even a human not participating in the fight is cheating.
oh hey I remember that
when I was progging tea my healer had this shit and still failed that p3 mechanic with circles even after we cleared
i found out only after watching vod of his stream that he's been cheating all this time
>Pegasus didn't cheat during Duelist Kingdom. Stop spreading this myth.
Yugi was using Egyptian black magic to top deck consistently too
Being able to draw whatever you want or seeing your opponents hand, which is more busted?
Being able to draw whatever you want, you can know exactly what someone is doing but if they always draw the outs it doesn't matter
That makes sense. I can't see where the opposite would be preferable, unless you had a substantially weaker deck and mind reading would be preferable, but then you'd still lose anyway.
>Being able to draw whatever you want or seeing your opponents hand, which is more busted?
Objectively its being able to draw whatever you want, you can force setups that are impossible to counter outside of hyper specific means they'd need to build around.
yami's skill was even more busted than that. he literally changed fate with his conviction. meaning he could change the card into something that wasn't originally in his deck. even yugi was suprised by this in his duel with him.
you also cant have another person play your duels for you. its like 2v1.
>I think the Japanese community is less aware of that though.
you mean the Japanese community that sent death threats to the devs until they blocked markers in combat? did you start in endwalker?
XIV private servers don't work because all fight scripting is serverside only so at best you still need to see what casts look like and let debuffs conclude to be able to imperfectly emulate it, which a piece of paper or mspaint can do much faster.
Killing the heart or letting it live made no difference except that Alexander gets the enigma codex which doesn't do anything to the rest of the mechanic until Alexander comes back and starts killing everyone. Killing the heart still fails the mechanic because you don't know where he's going to drop his laser so that means there's a right way to solve it where Alexander stops being an issue.
An exploding crystal still gave the heart a buff even if it didn't physically contact it, strats only put all the crystals right next to the heart now so nobody dies to the exploding crystals by standing on the other side of the arena.
I think this plugin its too hot for the main repository but if I'm not mistaken you can do your entire rotation with a single button. If those fricks already used zoom and whatever troony trick what guarantee they didn't use this one either
Nah manual rotation is good on paper only.
contrary to popular believe you don't always want to do your rotation completely static especially when optimizing for damage in an ultimate.
Wait till they find out every team in the WF races use mods to cheat.
Precisely why WF only matters to incel virgins. There's literally nothing you get from being WF in XIV. At least WoW has an achievement for it. In XIV you just have the rewards before everyone else who's dong it.
Top players in EVERY game genre cheat, who gives a shit. The only mistake the other teams made was not cheating harder.
And who gives a shit even harder in xiv of all games.
The new ultimate weapons fricking suck too.
What's the real reward for doing it agian? The dumb ass title?
Fricking hell, you raid trannies are whipped hard.
>What's the real reward for doing it agian
Unironically the friends you made along the way.
its the fault of the game if adding simple markers and overlays invalidates the encounter. Just means the devs aren't trying at all.
Well yeah, but nobody holds them accountable because the community is basically a Cult.
you can say this about any fricking game in existence, obviously theres a certain amount of information that must be held from the player devs have been doing this since the dawn of time you absolute moron.
>cultist noises
Wow doesnt have this issue, you can literally have all the noise reminders, bar reminders, and markers you want in the hard raids and the encounter is still hard. The devs recognize people will want an edge, so they set an upper limit of sorts for what kind of addons can be made and used.
Contrast this with FF14/Yoship who just hopes noone uses addons, and makes encounters in a naive way. The result is illegitimated world first kills . I bet not even one WF kill in FF14 history has been legit.
Considering that even with zoom hacks it still took them 6 days of constantly progging to clear the fight I'd say it was pretty hard regardless of having some cheats to help.
>everyone openly cheats in WoW so that makes it ok
It's sanctioned by the devs in WoW, blizz will nerf an addon if they think it goes too far though
It's factually not cheating in WoW. Blizzard designs the fights around making the addon developers do all the hard work of telegraphing stuff for them.
In FFXIV the fights are designed around the stuff the typical players have, just like what you're saying Blizzard does. For Blizzard it's just that the typical player is an addon user and in FFXIV the typical player (these WF morons are not typical players) don't use addons and actively shun people who do.
Literally the same circumstance.
FFXIV fights are not designed around addon use and you're a coping cheater if you believe so, they're also cleared by the dev team before release (allegedly)
The second point is a bit sus since they somehow didn't pick up the instance in this fight consistently hitting the buff limit on players
Loads of groups are getting through the enrage just fine using jobs that use self buffs. It's a stupid outdated design decision, but it in no way hinders progress.
>FFXIV fights are not designed around addon use
Yes? That's literally what I'm saying anon, do you have fricking zero reading comprehension. Blizzard designs fights around their players, people using add ons. FFXIV devs design fights around their players, people not using add ons.
Reminder that WoW brain rot causes everyone to make this fight much harder. Simply because all they could think of was how do we make addons do this for us, rather than use the simple and obvious solution in front of them.
Uh bro, that fight was just mathematically impossible.
are you saying there was a way of doing the laserbeams legitimately?
using addons that WF teams require programmers to create is dogshit game design
god forbid people just open the game and play it with no barriers of entry, right? dumbfrick 200 IO player
>god forbid people just open the game and play it with no barriers of entry, right?
Yes. Lack of barriers is why video games sucks now. Consoles were mistake.
It's almost as if FF people doesn't want their game to turn into the shitshow that is addons in WoW.
Want to beat a boss? I sure hope you have 10 addons installed for it, the game sure as shit doesn't give you any of the info needed to beat it otherwise.
I don't know man watching all this and like having to balance your game around cheating because *some* people cheat does not feel right
Either they should come harder and ban people who cheat or design content that cheating cannot occur which I don't know if that's possible on FFXIV
>Wow doesnt have this issue
Yeah, they totally didn't modify environment or delete 'doors' to just walk through them freely.
You are right. These fights should be designed in such a way that nobody and nothing could ever understand what is happening.
Finally someone who gets it. You see bosses are just "functions"...
>YOU MUST DELAY ENDWALKER SO WE CAN HAVE A HARD FIGHT FOR 1% OF THE PLAYERBASE
>proceeds to cheat to clear it
I sincerely hope it kills Ultimates
why the frick are trophy crystals so fricking worthless
when CC was announced didn't they say they would make sure to rotate the wards or some shit
>Everyone expected old feast rewards
>Nah, have some recolors of ARR armors after two seasons.
I am capped and with several levels unspent and already bought all the stuff I wanted.
Upscaling old dogshit gear that had good models but bad textures is unironically a nice thing though
Cheating fricking bastards!
That top is so disappointing.
You can tell the majority of the glam you get from the island is female-first from the design stage.
Males are literally a fricking afterthought. It's pretty aggravating to see the small pool of shit guys get that looks half-way decent.
what
I think this game has some serious issues lately with putting shit on the sides of the arena and forcing you to pirouette your camera like crazy, it's really apparent in some of these later ultimates but I guess it's part of the difficulty
If widescreen monitors have such an advantage I kinda wish I was legally allowed to
this is what xiv looks like on a ultrawide
>6 tanks for alliance raids

I feel like the hp/mp font is a little bit different from what we have currently in game

krauter
>Really wanted the V&C to be done right
>They added the difficulty setting
>They forgot to add the gear reward
If there's any actual problem FF14 has, its not cheating, its that any high end content that isn't the core Extreme/Savage/Ultimate experience, they have absolutely fricking terrible rewards for the absurd amount of time and effort they take.
YoshiP should stop being a pussy and add interesting gear stuff like trinkets. Change the fricking substat meta, introduce item set. Something to spice that shit up we are in this stale stuff since what? Heavensward?
There's a high chance that's just not possible without a lot of back end work which squeenix aren't going to pay for
Fricking SE CEO Black person should get punted from the chair shit is already pure profit venture, invest a little don't need to go in the fricking red expand the fricking golden goose.
If done right you have access to multiple choices instead of ok this is the only meta choice and you gimping yourself with it. In the end its all math.
The only saving grace of Bozja to be honest, the gear was fun. Sad it only worked there I almost had a taste of ARPG when using it and that was enough to me have joy.
They could just put the 630 ilvl gear rewards there from the same pool of raids. Its not like you are having easy with the savage version.
>access to multiple choices
which is quickly mathed out to what is best. which is exactly what you said
the issue with 'interesting' gear means it becomes mandatory. as boring as gearing is, it is possible to get and doesn't actually matter outside parsing
Bozja had haste gear but they pussied out and made the Haste only work inside Bozja
the least they could do is put that into criterion/variant dungeons or something.
we already have basic customised actions just add something more
Like honestly if I were to actually look at what all the different forms of high end content are that isnt Extreme/Savage/UIltimate, its Deep Dungeons, Field Operation Raids (BA/DRS), Criterion Dungeons, Full BLU syncing. All of these have basically just terrible rewards and barely any to begin with, or function as worse materia farms than just doing hunt trains, or the gear from them is completely useless. I'd excuse BLU cause its not current content job but its rewards are still complete garbage anyway. If there's gear its almost completely useless junk save the relic weapons (only the final upgrade at 4.55/5.55 obviously), i don't get why they're so terrified of just letting us have more options.
Its fricked up the only time content like this ever actually gave good gear was the original fricking version of Diadem.
Nothing going to be changed anon. The formula will be same. It's safe.
gear is meaningless. reject the BiS treadmill. embrace the true content: socializing
Sorry man I'm too socially inept and I don't enjoy the prospect of having a dude roleplaying a cute girls ERPing my ass
>Its fricked up the only time content like this ever actually gave good gear was the original fricking version of Diadem.
and they cucked that because raid trannies b***hed.
raiders will throw a tantrum if they let filthy casuals get gear outside of savage or ultimates remember when ARR relics were equal to raid gear
Remember the diadem gear with random stats lol
That shit was badass as raider I loved having a second place to get stuff besides raid.
Shame the other raid trannies asked to shut it down
I'm still mad they got their way. Relics were a perfectly fine alternative AND required more hours to obtain than savage weapons. There was no need to ruin this option.
No we won't.
so with EW being a flop content wise, are we gonna get more exploratory/foray content in then next expansion?
you rike ishgard rebuilding?
do it again but next expansion for new housing area
no because they've already said island sacntuary will continue to be updated for years to come
Anyone have the clip where Yoship said nep was too fat to be a ninja?
>shout chat super active in the Diadem tonight
Well that's new
i just want more fun skills in pve/pvp. they neutered out all the fun. i cant even have reduced fall damage in pvp anymore on ninja because shitters complain too much that i gank them too hard.
why the FRICK did they waste Halone on an alliance raid
filler mommy for filler raid
setting up for the ultimate alliance raid
is it alphinaud or alisae
it's a meme thot wearing a meme outfit
Wrong wig, neither.
What will the GMs even do? Will they take the raiders' TOP tokens and suspend their FFXIV accounts or a couple months and not indefinitely?
Zoomhack (in Japanese) is actually in 12th place on worldwide trends now.
Raiding is so cringe, stinky homosexuals who follow a fricking schedule to play a game repeating the same mechanics every new patch with a twist. Legit scum of any MMO, should always bully these homosexuals to suicide.

"FF14" High-difficulty content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" Fastest Clearing Team Appears, but Uses External Tools? A video believed to be a whistleblower surfaced
A team has appeared that has cleared the highly difficult content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" added to the MMORPG "Final Fantasy XIV", but suspicions have surfaced that they may have used a prohibited external tool. increase.
[2 images in total]
At the center of suspicion is a Japanese team called "UNNAMED_". The team cleared the high-difficulty content "Zetsu Omega Verification Battle" that was implemented at 19:00 on January 24th in 153 hours from the implementation, and won the top of the "Raid Race" aiming for the world's first clear.
However, in the meantime, images and videos have been uploaded that may have been cleared using an external tool called "zoom hack". Zoom Hack allows you to see the entire field by manipulating the field of view, so it is advantageous to capture gimmicks such as attack signs. In this work, the use of external tools is not permitted under any circumstances, and it is possible that the game was cleared illegally.
Since the team did not distribute the state of the capture, it is said that it may be a whistleblower from a support member within the team. At the time of writing, none of the team members have tweeted an explanation.
FF14's use of external tools became a hot topic during the previous high-difficulty content "Zetsuryu Shisen". In response, producer and director Naoki Yoshida once again announced that the use of external tools is strictly prohibited.
twiter trending now this
lmao gonna be impossible for yoshida to ignore it now. they have been deleting threads on jp forum tho
Their mods are trying to sweep that shit under the rug.
Just show they don't give a flying frick regarding US, you can discuss whatever and they won't do shit there.
Did they already congratulate the world first clear? If not the race is still on.
cheaters won, Black person. It's over go home or play a superior game.
at this point they aren't going to say shit to anyone,everyone and their mom who is doing this is cheating and everyone knows it
I don't believe an official statement has gone out congratulating/condemning them yet
after this i doubt the dev team will ever bother again,it's bad enough that they can't just pin this westerners
they can't really say shit because this same raid team also did world first P8S and I'm pretty sure they congratulated them on that shit. So expect total silence from now on
I'm alright with that, ultimate's are a waste of dev resources that only a tiny fraction of the players ever touch
that argument can be made for literally any piece of content in the game
>waste of resources that no one cares about
>big enough spectacle to get a yahoo article
which is it?
YaWho?
Ultimates are the best content this game has and it's a shame people cheat just for first!!!!! clear.
lmao arthars saying they did a great job in the stream before and wishing he had poached some players to his own team and now saying that offline prog/world race is a complete joke
does arthars know there are streamer mods to disable add on overlays for video?
Probably not with what he is saying now.
lol he just said he's doing pr bullshit cause he has friends in the group
Hopefully they add an anticheat and ban all modders. Raidgays are a joke. Modgays are a joke.
YoshitPiss know all the RPs and casuals (80% of the ppl) will just stop playing
morons think they care about non jp players
>he thinks JP players are not ERPing in limsa too
ohohohohohoohoh
The rolepalyers won't go anywhere. They have nowhere else to go. Every other game with an RP community has killed their community, or XIV cannibalized them.
Exactly why it'll never happen. And for what? The 50 people in each region who care about ultimates?
more people care about ultimates than your dumb bawdcats
WRONG
Ass isn't even my favorite and I'd murder for her to sit on my face
ultimacope
Casuals don't use mods. ERPers will make do without coom mods, they can use the models in a separate program anyway.
Only cheaters will leave, good riddance.
They do. Almost all my friends who play xiv casually (don't erp, normies with jobs etc) use mods. The guys use nude mods and the girls use weird clothing mods.
Good example of modding becoming normalised and popular
>My friends
moron. Your friends are not normies, they're weird outcasts like you. No normal person uses nude mods, that's exclusively the 0.1% most depraved people. I guarantee less than 5% of players use any mods at all, not counting ACT for parsing(and even that is only the 10%-15% or so of players who run Savage). A good chunk of the playerbase is also on PS4/5 and can't use mods even if they wanted to.
Even my own weird friends don't use mods. They use separate programs where they can load in and pose character models outside of the game, but nothing when actually playing the game.
>hopefully they ban 80% of their playerbase
sounds based to me
I'll gladly sacrifice my QoL plugins if it means death to all modbeasts.
Cosmetic mods and there consequences have been a disaster for the FFXIV community.
Please explain how. They don't effect gameplay and nobody can see them unless you use Mare or share them.
but someone posted a picture of a modded catgirl on Ganker
Try being social sometime and you'll understand what I mean
...and? I socialize just fine without mods. The worst that's happened is someone sent me pics of how my character looks on their modded setups. I said "hot" and moved on.
You don't mind everyone being prostituted up 24/7 and acting haughty and better than you for being "fun" and "lewd"?
Actively shitting on any smallscale rp venue that isn't another mare'd club?
Good for you.
I've literally never seen this happen and haughty RPgays will exists with or without mods.
God you're lucky. Those frickers are the bane of my existence and it's harder and harder to find venues that don't enable their bullshit.
It sounds absolutely moronic to me. If I used Mare I would be real picky about who I linked up with.
You would think it would be safer to do it like that, but no. Each club needs their own mare accessed through their discord.
They don't fear bans because the GMs don't do shit to them. So that inflates their egos even more
I can see why. Coomers often happen to be the biggest whales.
I wouldn't mind them existing in their own little bubbles, but the Second Life rejects absolutely have to act like mean girls.
They NEED to be unique.
They NEED to be superior to everyone else.
They NEED to be complete c**ts and cause drama constantly.
They're not going to bother putting resources into setting up an anti-cheat tool, since people always circumvent them, and this kind of shit doesn't affect regular gameplay for 99% of the playerbase.
are you saying that i should just cheat?
I'm saying they shouldn't complicate the game's installer and performance requirements for an extreme minority that don't affect the game for the vast majority. The most cheaters do is sell runs, which SE could (and should) outright ban instead.
Cheaters affect the game for me by devaluing my Savage clears and making it harder for me to recruit static members that have integrity. A lot of cheating shitters will be weeded out by anticheat.
Right now all ultimate raiders/savage raiders are just cheaters for me and their shit have no value now.
Cool okay I'm grabbing cactbot right now.
I feel like it's too late in the game's life cycle to bother for them. If they make a new FF MMO I imagine it'll have that shit though.
it's genuinely over for plug-ins isn't it
i hope so just so that the game is worse for everyone who plays it and they cant do squeenixs job and fix it for them
It's been "over" like five separate times nothing will happen
Hopefully they kill FFlogs at least, parsegays are nothing but a blight
seething greylet
Parsegays are an active detriment to the game, it's their fault everything has been sanded down into the same two minute burst meta job
yea im sure squeenix are catering to the plugins they tell people to not use
moron
Parsegays fricking hate the two minute burst window more than anyone because they're the only players that actually care about it because they want to hold damage so they can go into their burst window again for a higher number
casuals don't give a shit about muh two minute windows because they don't even use any abilities in content they just press 1 over and over
no matter how many times you post this Ganker gays are too shit at the game to realize how true it is.
And /vg/ is too shit at the game to even think of it. How does a 24/7 thread about the game end up not playing the game at all?
vg is like a facebook page for ffxiv
no one does things except send pictures to eachother and shit its cringe fr senpai'
And if you stop being moronic looking for a bogeyman you'll notice the only ones benefited by 2 min design are raid designers that now only need to design mechanics around one single burst window timing. Parsing has nothing to do with this.
awww widdle baby mad someone uploaded his extreme fight where he died and got a 3? awwww booo hoooooo
SE won't do shit. This is the beggining of the end. They might as well start doing the fights around the addons
What is the pop that does ultimate 5% of the playerbase?
Its gonna be a nothing burger for sure, at worst they will give more preview on 7.0 saying they will address it somehow there and people will forget about it.
>t. greylet
Yeah yeah, mods bad. Anyone got some fat femroes? Possibly an album?
you can find it in /vg/ thread
That place is full of the worst posters on this entire website.
Yeah, I cheat. What are you homosexuals going to do about it?
*bans you*
no refunds
>get stomped by enemy team in CC
>they have perfect coordination, focus down our threats and cover for anyone at low hp
>every one of them has 2+ minutes on the point
>requeue
>most of the enemy team is on my team now
>suddenly theyre all morons and dont kill focus targets or stand on the crystal while going 0/7
EVERYONE JUST WANTS TO GUT MY FRICKING RANK
Who is constant in both situations moron?
>every win/loss is one persons fault
next time you wanna make a stupid fricking post try thinking next time
Him and the enemy team he just faced, who transformed from an elite killsquad into a bunch of bumbling morons like yourself.
I have a couple of modded hairstyle because the long hair options in this game are fricking shit but that's pretty much it.
The game should let you zoom out more, it's ridiculous how people with bigger monitors have an easier time.
