Pickup poll
It's been explained to me that many of the balance changes for FF start making sense if you primarily look at pickup games. I'm curious what the divide is on that, so I made this poll.
EDIT: If you don't play FF as much as you'd like, select which option would be representative of you if you could. So if you only play 2 games of FF in a month, but both those games are pickups, don't select "sometimes" or "rarely", but "yes." Last edited by chilledsanity; 08-14-2010 at 08:06 PM. |

obviously this is only representative of those here on the forums...
*edit* thus not including many regular but casual pubbers + a good few pickup players that don't ever check these forums. Not sure how it'd swing the result.

Surely the poll should be, what % of FF do you spend playing pickups?
I dont play pickups often but I play pickups more than I play pub. |

It's still a bit early to call the results, but I think it is revealing that the majority of posters have played pickups, with about half of them preferring it. This explains a lot to me. I personally feel like many of the balance changes for the game are insane, but I'm also in the minority here. The fact that I don't play pickups may explain this, since it looks like the majority does. My guess is the gameplay changes are made primarily with pickups in mind, then everything else trickles down to other game modes. |

Pickup community sucks. If there were less faggots, I'm sure the pickup community would be larger, but that is not the case.
