Announcements - More Information About the Upcoming One-Month Event - Forum

I would prefer to open the whole thing with a bang and have all of the mods on for the first day or two. I also definitely want to see tempest + warbands together.	Posted by Xaelyin#1966 on Sep 17, 2015, 7:48:41 PM Quote this Post

So basically each week is either warbands/tempest + flashback. Seems fine to me, but wouldn't complain if warbands+tempest were both permanently on. Prizes seem fine too, although a different skin seraph set that were unique to the league would be ideal (could even become kind of a tradition if this kind of league were run say twice a year) (As for those going a bit offtopic we all have our differing opinions on league length - I also find 3 months a bit too short tbh - but at the end of the day GGG has decided to stick to the 3 months like previous leagues, and we should respect this decision. I do, however, think they should announce league duration dates earlier though, I personally think that if people know the duration they will plan around it rather than feeling 'tricked' when they are told only two weeks to go to the end. I don't want to be negative but I think leagues die down near the end no matter the duration, so they may as well announce a date earlier allowing people to organise themselves).

Sounds awesome! Especially the fact that both leagues have the same rewards!	Posted by JuicedG#4675 on Sep 17, 2015, 8:50:03 PM Quote this Post
Thank you for not making me play in a league I don't feel comfortable with or spreading out the challenges to both leagues. I love you GGG-senpai, I'll buy a new supporter pack asap <3 \| I made this \|	Posted by GolumAmicicide#2199 on Sep 17, 2015, 9:24:58 PM Quote this Post
Thanks for NOT making me play hardcore if i don't want to, just to get a reward.	Posted by arherter#3366 on Sep 17, 2015, 10:38:25 PM Quote this Post
Tempest was a good league for other parts than that people abused the Laboratory to spam 20 instances if there was a good tempest. It often felt that people got exhausted from grinding same map over-and-over. Warbands - well - was just the worst league ever. I never met single commander and felt like we Warbands players didnt really get anything at all for the league :/ Nice to see the GARBAGE warband end already and new stuff come out^_^ Best Cudez ps. the everlasting question: could we finally get some sort of AFK trading system?!? In start of OBT support package page there was a promise that "with your support we can improve game such as make a viable Trading system into-game"^_^ Who Are We? Where do we come from?

Looking forward to this. Missed the last flashback event so i'm super pumped about this one. I like the setup for the leagues and start date as is personally. GJ GGG, No complaints here :)	Posted by Demonbane13#7955 on Sep 18, 2015, 2:08:34 AM Quote this Post

I am not a 20-year student anymore, who has a lot of time but does not have money. Situation is actually opposite right now, not so much time and some money. Me and my friends have been actively supporting you GGG, knowing that Tempest will last ~4 month or at least 3 month and a half (actually league is dead not the time it is officially shut down but the time it is announced). So, in a month and a half we were able to achieve only lvl 95 on Tempest and had goal to go to lvl 100, but then you decided to shut down tempest. Decision is made, and there is nothing I can do about it. What I can do though, is stop playing, because 1-month league is too short for people with full time job to achieve everything they want. So, thank you GGG and goodbye. Described my situation perfectly. One month leagues don't interest me. Way too short for anyone who has a life outside of POE. I haven't played POE in over a year before Warbands/Tempest. I came back to the game expecting the current leagues to be a bare minimum of 4 months, based on the words of a GGG employee. Then I find out the leagues will end after 2.75 months? Sorry, but I'm just going to move on. Fallout 4 is coming out soon and I still haven't played Witcher 3. My gaming time can be spent better elsewhere. Temp leagues can't be less than 3 months in length... That is simply ridiculous. People who have jobs obviously can't play all day long. And for those of us who fall into this category, it takes about 2 months for us to finally get our builds and gear put together. That leaves us with 3 weeks to actually play the characters we spent 2 months putting together. I was expecting these leagues to be longer than 3 months, not shorter. Hell, I was halfway expecting they may even last longer than 4 months. I'm just going to move on. Thanks for the great game GGG. You guys are still the best game developers out there for sure. It's just too bad you don't care about your semi-casual players. Final thought: I think 6 months is the right length of time for a temp league. At least 5 months. 4 is bordering on okay. 2.75 is unacceptable. What's even more unacceptable is giving us a 2 week notice before shutting it down. This is what drove a well paying customer from the game. Good luck in the future! Hope you guys can stay in business with your 1% super hardcore no-life play 24/7 players. This. Misinformation - intentional or not. It just doesn't fly with me. Had I known the Awakening leagues would be this short, my wallet probably would not have supported the game as heavy-handed as I did - heck, I probably won't even have a chance to find my own divination card in the Awakening leagues. How silly is that? I'm not going to support the next expansion/thingy unless we know the end date from the start, and it isn't something randomly pulled out of a hat to cater the elite players. I also think 6 months is much, much better. Have 1 months/races and all that elite stuff we "normal" guys with a life outside being chained to a chair can't participate in alongside to cater the "pros". Make an effort to make both the elite and the not-so-elite happy. It's very possible, and quite simple.
