Descent Races

Can't wait! (Survey?)

I cant wait for sort of last man standing all out pvp races

Sounds like an awesome race. Definitely going to give it a try when it is available.

Well I am going to buck the trend.

I don't like the idea of this format, particularly because it was made the signature event for the season.

I don't have a problem with the idea itself, and taken on its own it sounds like a fun way to change up racing in the future, and perhaps lead to other interesting races.

Hardcore racers really loved signature races. Being able to improve on a record throughout the season was very popular.

Yes but we liked the exact format, if Signature had been BLAMTCI I doubt we all would like it.

I forgot to mention, dead characters in Descent are still eligible for prizes! Getting to a high level and dying is equivalent to getting there and staying alive.

Honestly.... I don't even know what to say to this.

The most basic rule of racing is you die, you're out.

This looks awesome and I can't wait to try them, however my only request is you disable mirrors being able to drop.
I personally would lose my shit and be very disappointed if the rarest item in the game dropped in a 1 hour race where I can't keep my items.

The chances it would happen to me are slim, but If we have enough people playing surely it'll happen to someone.

omg...omgggg...OMGGGGGGGG

its the enxt day and Im still a bit omg omg, I feel slightly lost cause I just want to play this now, again and again all night, if I had that option I dont think Id leave this chair for the next 7 hours.





As for people who dont like the idea of it, theres nothing wrong with variety. Things have to be tested out, Id rather they threw things in to see what happens rather than rinse and repeat the same stuff every time.

This is potentially amazing, its bringing almost a new game into the game. Im not really one for normal races most of the time, I sometimes take part in peoples practices who do love their racing but I just find the first part of the game a bit tedious, I dont want to do it over and over and over. I know the areas too well, if I go into docks by the time I reach the first pack I could probably give you 90% certain info on where all 3 piers and the empty battlefront trans area will be. Thats an element to racing, understanding the different map layouts and using that knowledge to you advantage, thats both a fun factor in racing for a lot of people and at the same time what makes it so bloody boring to me, to the point where my brain will just tune out.

When you got strong arguments on both sides of a thing then you got to ask yourself can we do both? If you can do both then everyones happy right? Well apparently not but with 4 months of beta left we got to understand that the devs have things they want to try out and put in the spotlight for a moment to get some good feedback on how it actually plays. Im excited about it, Im not a person who was excited about previous races, the people complaining all seem to be those who were into the old races and thats a good thing right? Because you guys already have what you enjoy and now theyre adding something else. Im willing to bet a lot of you doubters are going to get into this thing when it lands.

but you never know, that could be a thing. Obviously all the drop rates have been changed, so perhaps theres actually a good chance youll find a mirror and thats going to make this sick ele cleave sword you found double mega.
