Fire team finder improvement

From what I see there is average wrongful labels or tags 🏷️ used. It appears many people don’t fully know how to use it such as, when people don’t clearly say which encounter is it but starts at random encounters. Sometimes encounters 2 or final. That ambiguity of tags I think confuses some users. Or sometimes you see ‘Chill’ and ‘Fast’ at the same post that is contradicting. Or a fresh start of an activity the fireteam leader doesn’t know how to summon the fireteam so he send individual invites, I understand an on going session they have the only option is individual invites. Or people who join doesn’t know how to press Ready or Leaders who don’t sent a invite to a full fireteam even within 5 minutes. So I think we need some sorta solution for people to explain or understand how to use the system. [spoiler]Moderator edit: This thread has been updated with tags that are more appropriate. Feel free to private message the moderator who moved your post, link to topic, for further clarification about why this topic was moved.[/spoiler]

  • Best way to improve it is to completely remove it from the game and implement the legacy LFG system form the app. Done.

    • Fast is fast, chill is not "slow paced" is more in the sense of "chill, nobody here is going to scream at you"

        • Can’t really improve something if no one plays the game

          • Fireteam finder def needs improvements. Some things are just confusing due to the nature of the activities though. For example, is the first encounter of VOG opening the vault door or defending the confluxes? Depends on who you ask. I know what I think, but the answer changes how someone thinks every encounter after that is labeled.

            • Fireteam Finder in general needs some massive improvements. Why can the encounter number go up to eight? Name one Dungeon or even Raid that has eight encounters.

            • The problem is certain labels could have been better defined. # checkpoint caused confusion during Rot9 since newbs didn't understand 1st cp was predefined by the community as 1st encounter. SotW for example had an added reward chest for its opening encounter and players labeled it as 1st cp/encounter rather than fresh run. If its reward looks like it came from a secret chest, it isn't an encounter. The way they have the feats set up in FTF is wrong. Those should be in the titles tabs since the other one only allows 3 selections. Guaranteed T5 loot drops with 4 feats. There's nothing confusing about the titles and tags from the player perspective, some people are too lazy to describe where they are; the whole thing is a potluck. Sending invites for a fresh run prevents players from getting lost in transit which happens often. I send them for those because I'm busy customizing so it's faster to just have them join. No "I" in team correct? I also send them when I'm farming an encounter so I can keep the post up as is, hopefully with them not leaving it and forcing me to take it down so others aren't mislead. I think I'm gonna start threatening boots from now on when that happens so they rejoin it. Your whole post looks like victim shaming. You need to realize this system is in place because carry services can't advertise on it. It's a QoL feature for the mods who had to deal with the reports and bans back then. We, the players, are the victims of the carry services. Quit shaming us.

              • Theres a lot of tags issues. Especially for a non-linear raid like desert perpetual. One thing i have noticed over the years is that lfg has its own language and this messes with newer people. Like if I see a quick tag I understand that they probably mean sweaty and speedrun-light quick. Newer players who dont know the terms would just think they mean no wandering, or with some hustle. Chill doesnt mean not being sweaty, but just a laid back pleasant attitude. When I see 'chill quick' i dont see a contradiction, I take that to mean they want sweaty fast top tier players with a laid back attitude. I've often thought someone should make a beginners guide to lfg terms because most of the times I see people on here complaining about bad lfg experiences its because of someone misunderstanding a what a post advertising. Granted you'll never stop people who dont know what to do joining know what to do posts.

                  • Chill and fast is not contradicting. That means join my post, the raid will get done even if you know nothing, and you will get your loot. Chill does not equal 3 hour run. You should NEVER be summoning with fireteam finder. It frequently breaks voice chat, if players are loading into something or orbiting they often get lost and never join. Always invite each player manually. source: 2000+ raids via fireteam finder.
