Now that I actually know, I can work around it better (and can lament my losses even more coherently!) and have managed a total of four Godberts and no Bahamuts. Sad

Yea I'm still playing the Noobiscuit League until I feel a little better about my ability and my cards. I'll probably also smash a few HMs and hope for some card drops there too.

Practice makes me rage so hard FFF perfect!

I think my ability is pretty limited by my cards. It's hard to do much with a handful of one-stars when a lot of the opponents in the Saucer will happily drop 3-5 star cards like it ain't no thang. It's why I wanted the Godbert and Bahamut cards - to get an early leg-up so I can fight on their level somewhat.

... Of course, if I could get the Onion Knight card from WoD, I'd be the happiest little Lala at the saucer. EAT SIX-STAR, YOU JERKS. Angry

I've seen some people RP at Gold Saucer. It can work but if you try RPing -right now- prepare for wait (for others to make it in) and possibly not very... it's more casual than story-driven?

I mean sometimes I don't even load people who are right next to me @_@; I have to move around before their character can appear on screen.

I definitely think it could be fun. There's even a little bar on the second floor by the GIANT CACTAUR, if I remember correctly from my wanderings for the aetheryte. Not to mention all the walkways to sneak away to for quieter conversations (or stealing a hug or two, I think I saw an embracing couple on one of said staircases).

It's definitely a great place to do RP in and it has so many avenues to have it.

It's just so congested that it may have issues with coordinating something substantial, at this very moment.

Hopefully they beef up how many can go in, etc. :V

Same here... I'm waiting for lower congestion so I don't risk getting yelled at for RPing in public. Because heaven forbid anyone say anything over /say ever... *Rolls eyes*

It's even worse when they report you for spamming when they're going at 5 shouts/minute. That happened to me a lot on GW2.

It's even worse with the Simon Says-style dancing GATE, at least it was when I did it on Gogon on Zalera. It was like people JUST discovered emotes and had to spam ALL OF THEM ALL THE TIME while they waited for the GATE itself to start.

Wow, non-rpers are really unobservant.

I haven't even tried getting into GS in Balmung. I already know my poor creaking, ancient laptop won't be able to handle it even if I did get in. Besides, neither of my characters have a plausible reason for being there so I'll leave the fun times to my main. Even if it does mean getting bombarded with all the goldbot tells that are so much more noticeable after a week on Balmung (and seriously, I only got one goldbot in the last week and I've been on pretty well all day. Go Balmung)

Well shit.

It's unlikely that they've only just discovered emotes for the first time considering you need to use them to advance through the main quest. I've also seen plenty of role-players spamming emotes during that particular mini-game so let's cut the crap and not so subtle sniping at the expense of people who don't role-play, yeah?

Balmung isn't an official role-playing realm. Nobody has 'more right' to be somewhere and not get disturbed just because they happen to be engaging in role-play, especially when the area in question is bustling with activity.

Should you be able to role-play there? Sure! Though you'll have to grit your teeth together and acknowledge that people running around doing their own thing is part of the package. I don't buy into the idea that they're 'ruining immersion' either - there's a chat filter for a reason and you can place problematic players on ignore.

I sincerely hope people do start to RP there; it's a wonderful opportunity to spread RP out as many players have wanted to - we just need to take it. I understand it's easier to stay in Ul'dah rather than move another city, since it would basically be the same RP just dressed differently, and you always know people will be in the Quicksand, but at least the Saucer offers many new scenarios and a fresh environment. And it still has bars if you want that.
