What is Desync? (A thorough explanation)
|
Your explanation on how it works is right, but the comparison to D3 is bullshit
Many areas in PoE are pretty open, even more so than D3, and you still desync all the time (Such as getting charged by a Rhoa in Mud Flats) D3 has charging mobs too, it has indoor environments with narrow corridors, where you can funnel mobs through doors, such as Act 3 Keep, it has extremely fast moving mobs, skills that hit while moving (har har Whirlwind), and where is the desync? Nowhere, it works flawlessly So this whole idea that PoE desyncs because PoE has more "obstacles" and GGG wants to have a more tactical game is a bad excuse Ill be the first to criticize D3 for being a failure of a sequel, but in this regard, it is miles ahead of PoE, and GGG is obviously doing something wrong Last edited by soranamae#7017 on Feb 20, 2013, 10:18:08 PM

" by the same logic, you should stop posting about desync because of your other 1 billion posts and/or replies about it. All the things I want to remember are in the places I'd like to forget.

I already knew all of this but it doesn't make it any better, really. The current level of desync present in the game completely kills it, to all but the safest of builds. There's a big reason why life is the most popular thing to sink points into. You need a safety net to accommodate for how bad you are constantly desynced from the server.
It isn't like it occurs sometimes, it is occurring almost constantly in some fashion. GGG needs to get on it quickly or they risk losing customers. I, myself, am on the verge of taking a break because of it, however unlike myself, many others they lose won't come back. "Danger is like jello, there's always room for more."

" Apparently you're not following, or your reading comprehension is a little below the Mendoza line... Starting Threads =/= Posting in Threads. Bananas =/= Tomatoes Since you and that mkaddage guy seem to stalk my posts, I think I've gotten a good grasp on your thought process. It's sorta like watching monkeys playing with sticks... You think they know what they're doing... Then they shove the stick up their ass. Last edited by StinkFinger#4623 on Feb 20, 2013, 10:27:24 PM

" Posting good and thorough insight regarding a complex topic like this twice is better than mindlessly crying about it >9000 times like you did. GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

" know what? you're right. no one even comes close to how perfectly logical and reasonable you are all of the time. I am sorry I got in your way. Please continue to steamroll your infallible logic in all forms and fashions. Besides, I think this thread is read worthy, and I don't want to derail it for the OP.

" Of course you do... You guys love the "apologetic" threads. I sure do love the "bolded" line in the OP... HEY GUYS EVERY GAME HAS DESYNCS... ITS OK. If every game had desyncs like this game did, the online gaming industry would have been dead 20 years ago. Last edited by StinkFinger#4623 on Feb 20, 2013, 10:36:16 PM
