Did you remove /oos or fix desync?

Desync is my biggest gripe with this game, it's seriously off putting.

I play a highly mobile, hit n run Shadow build, but I'm really regretting this choice as it's too frustrating to play in the game's current state. I get my fun from surviving, seeing how far I can get without dying. At the moment I can't challenge myself in this regard, because of the frequent desync related deaths. Every time it happens I just think well whats the point? It's frustrating as hell and I'm not going to continue playing if the game is continually out of sync. Seems like a really poor system to run with a game like this.

It's bad enough a NZ dev can't support an oceanic server, but having to deal with these constant desync issues as well? It's a real fun killer.

Such a shame, because it detracts from an awesome game.

I agree, I play a bow shadow who is very squishy till about lv50+. I kite enemies around and use mobility and cc as my weapons.. But when I place traps and they fly out from 30 yards from where my char is standing it's just not playable.

Not only is is off putting to play but also it's a downer for my future with PoE. I don't mind supporting a game I like and plan to play a lot, but at this point I'm just not willing to invest anything in the game..
And even if it does improve, I will probably wait a long time till I'm certain it's fixed a 100% and it will never return before I even reconsider investing money in the game.

A loss for me as a player for a potential good game. A loss for them on a player and income.

Just posting in here before this thread gets locked - to explain why it WILL be locked, if the current moderator action is anything to go by.

When a thread gets over a certain length the more recent posters, for mostly understandable reasons, don't bother to read back through and see what responses have been given.

If any of the fools in this latest page of responses had bothered to even look slightly harder they would see that half of their whinging entitled complaints have already been answered by the devs, so here it is for you slow, stupid people:

Desync is a KNOWN and ACKNOWLEDGED High Priority Issue

GGG is an indie company with 20ish employees and cannot afford the resources to develop everything to 100% at once so they focus on what the greater player base NEEDS.

Hint: the greater player base does not need desync fixed before server stability. The greater player base does not even know that desync is a problem because they never reach a level where it matters (poster re: NZ server - you got the money, fool? You have any idea of the costs involved? No? Then STFU and GTFO).

GGG have not been "doing nothing" for two years - as they've repeatedly mentioned, they've implemented fixes on this issue throughout this time but it's still a problem!


And one final hoorah for the complaining kids I love so much:

You are not paying for this game - microtransactions buy you ingame digital assets, NOT control over how the game is made, idiots.

The control GGG HAS granted you over the game is to make calm, logical suggestions (that take into account the massive amount of complexity that already exists - so read up before suggesting they add spaceships and runestone set skill paths) in the Suggestions forum.

If you want to whinge... join the D3 forums - they're good for that!

TL;DR - complaining about desync: old news, get over it, already been answered and dealt with.

For god's sake mods, PLEASE lock this thread before more idiots post empty threats about how they're going to leave as if ANY of us care.

Kid - LEAVE. It is not worth GGG's time to have your patronage in exchange for your lazy, entitled whinging. Read the posts on desync before spamming your stupid unlearned view in here. Guess what? Enough players like this game that your stupid opinion doesn't matter.

Thats just a bug and you should report it in the forum for it. Guess you pushed her up there with Heavy Strike and now she is stuck and spams skills into the strange alternate glitch world.

Edit: oh, just realized the video is named "positioning bug".

Snipped QQ

Your post is probably the most irrelevant post in the whole thread, thanks for sharing your mature opinion, while calling everyone kids and idiots. Grow up.

Look at the title of the thread. You're really gonna come in here and whinge about people discussing their desync issues? LOL

No one forced you to click on the thread. Maybe you shouldn't next time if you're going to get your panties in a knot over nothing. The game is in beta, people are going to discuss it's issues, desync being a huge one at that. I only posted to give the devs my feedback and feelings on the matter. If that offends you, you got serious issues.

I don't know why I'm even explaining this to you, you're probably just going to hurl more unnecessary insults like the big grown up you imply you are. Forum ragers are hilarious.

Desyncs happen a few times a day for me. 99% of the time I don't die or nothing happens. However, today for the first time my HC character died due to a desync and I was enraged so I can understand why people complain so much. Its what inspires GGG devs to work harder and fix the desync issue. Until then, I suggest Alt-F4'ing or quickly logging out right when you get a desync, doing that would've saved my ass but instead I did what I usually do: wait for the desync to end. BAD IDEA!

Also, sorry for another QQ story. It seems that these comments are considered annoying and IDGAF worthy, but I just needed to get that off my chest.

My response to you, captain panties, is because your irrelevant post ignores the entire thread and the devs response to the issues you've raised - for the millionth time. My post directly above my response to you abbreviates the devs response for lazy monkeys like you who can't be bothered reading before they spam their unwelcome, useless opinions into the forum.

DW I have enough topics on the d3 forums :)

Aside from your 2 passionate "stories" (a.k.a. obvious complaining), you made me laugh.

No one is saying the dev's are not aware of the issue, we know it's known. We know it's been known for a long time. this isn't what we're discussing. But you're not interested in discussion, so I wonder why you actually browse the forums?

And even though most of the players (still doubt that) aren't having sync issues. It's a big issue that is costing them players by the day. And as word spreads on the problem even for streamers the game is slowly building up a bad name around it :) (280+ pages on the search in general on the forums here on the word "desync")

I understand you're a very angry person but there's no need to be mad, This thread will not be closed. GGG is most interested in this thread, not for the "whining" but the issues that occur, what the situation was, what they are playing, where they're from, etc :) Information is knowledge and communication is key....

Too bad you don't understand how game development works and only see everything as QQ instead of healthy discussion. Also you shouldn't care when I quit indeed, but if you were a game dev your game would have 0 players atm. Just look at how diablo 3 turned out, there are no public games to be found :)

This game relies an active online community with trading, parties and more. If that falls the game is going to fall. In conclusion I just want to wish you the best of luck ingame since I assume you're not having sync issues, may you slay many monsters and I will see you ingame when and if this issue gets fixed in the future!

p.s. Also try not to be such an angry person, since you're already a full adult unlike us kids. It might be damaging for your health at that age, the old ticker can't take as much as it used to!

I find it hilarious that some people take criticism of a game that isn't even theirs so seriously that they get angry, call people names, demand mod action, and even tell people stop playing the game. It's not just this thread either, they do it every time a thread criticizing the game gets popular. Here's a tip: You aren't our boss, and this isn't your game. Stop acting like it is.
If you don't like the thread then don't read it, and don't post in it. And if you do, at least have the courtesy to be civil.

We all know the developers know. Most of us haven't implied otherwise, although some people have questioned its priority with the developers. Even if it wasn't one of their highest priorities before, I do believe it is now.

Beyond that, we are complaining in this thread because it's cathartic. It makes people feel better to complain about an issue that makes them angry. Let us vent.

I really wish I could report everyone that calls others idiots, or tells them to stop playing the game. We really don't need that in this forum, because it's poisonous to discourse.
