Jan 14: One-week HC Race

One thing I think the people who complain about the "no-lifers" dont concider is thoes same "no-lifers" are twords the top of almost every short term race as well. In most cases the more time you spend doing something the better you get.

You could make the race 100% equal for everyone and thoes no lifers would still win. They have played the game more. They have learned to almost perfection how to micro each pack of mobs. They will click a half a second faster. They will know exactly what spec to use. They will know the exact number of mobs to kill in a pack before going to the next to make it the most efficient.

Now some people can play as well as these people. But lets be honest here. Thoes people arent the ones complaining.


PS. The longer these guys play in one sitting the more chance they have of dieing. Simon is a great example. He got to tired and didnt leave the game in time. 1 player down who spent alot of time and he certainly isnt the only one.
died twice to de-sync f this game, they need to impliment a safer way of de-syncs

only beg for they (GGG) make races for people who DON'T play 24 hours continues


if all races will be by the highest level win i think i will never participe the no life people always win.

and yes i know they do 1h or 3h that's good but i mean the longest races.


Thats kind of the point though, how could you do a long race and not have it decided on highest level ranking, without making it stupid?

They do short races for people who dont have time to race for a whole week, and week long races for those with a lot of time to spare, seems perfectly logical to me



i quote my message and you'r

also they can do less exp in the races limited by hours played in the last 24 hours (not connected because people can disconnect and connect again)

8 hour played = -25% exp
10 hour played = -50% exp
15 hour played = -75% exp
18 hour played = -90% exp

and people who don't play maybe...

10 hour whit no play the game (race and normal league) = + 10% exp during 2 hour
15 hour whit no play the game (race and normal league) = + 20% exp during 1 hour

etc.... only find the equilibre for make and equal posibility and not base all race win in who make more hours playing.
I cant believe people are suggesting to introduce diminishing returns to exp gain based on how long an individual has been playing. Some players are just really passionate about a game they play and take days off work in an effort to participate in these long races, why should they be penalized.

Some people will complain about anything.

Fun isnt it? Had 0 close calls in over 40 levels, then a sudden death when running through ruthless ship graveyard (always skipping this zone). 2 or 3 monsters in screen at the moment of death (and none of them close)... though i had a pack of rhoas and some undead sailors after me.

The guy who was doing the 100 hour marathon just had his stream reported and it automatically got taken town. It will take an hour for twitch.tv admins to be able to fix it, since apparently they don't have 24/7 customer support.

Now nugiyen's steam has also gone offline...

Someone is going around and reporting the Path of Exile streams. Maybe Blizzard is upset that there is another D3 competitor? I don't think it's a coincidence that they are releasing the PTR for 1.0.7 so soon to the open beta.

Lmao, this is the stupidest thing I've read yet on these forums. Are you that delusional? I like PoE more than D3 but please you are a stupid piece of shit if you really think Blizzard gives 2 shits about PoE and that they would spend time "Reporting" streams. Wow You are an idiot.
