Feedback and Suggestions - Petition to get GGG to add Nascar-Style Racing to PoE. - Forum

" CycloneJack wrote: " gibbousmoon wrote: GGG can make it like a 10-race course that takes about 5 minutes per race, but if you win enough some of them will be cut out, so it will only end up taking 10-20 minutes, depending on how you place. The gameplay works like this: alternate R-click and L-click to make your rhoa run, but not too fast, because you want to keep it in rhythm with your rhoa's feet. If you go too fast, your rhoa gets tired and has to stop to catch his breath! And people can use D and F to change lanes. Because this changes the core controls of the game. A better example would be that players race through a series of Circular Maps (Tidal Island, Fetid Pool, etc) while running through beneficial Tempests to gain buffs and dodging hazardous Tempests that debuff you. Buffs and debuffs are persistent and stackable, but one debuff will terminate all of your buffs, and vice versa. At the end of each map is a mini boss to defeat. At the end of X number of maps you fight the main boss. For each debuff on you when you defeat a boss grants a chance for better loot. Notice that the core mechanics of the game still persist. Movement is not changed, combat is not changed, you are not adding any new key presses. The primary purpose of the game is also still in tact: kill, reward. Ah, but that would be moving backwards. You are suggesting that GGG incorporate killing monsters into this expansion. As an earlier poster said, GGG is helping the ARPG evolve. I agree, and am suggesting they take the evolution further: Instead of removing some of the monster-killing, they can remove all of it. This should make the game even more fun!

It WAS pretty funny and well written. == Officially Retired 27/02/2019 == Massive thanks to GGG for producing such a fun and engaging game, it has taken up faaaaaaar too much of my life over the last 5 years. Best of luck in the future! Last edited by CaptainWaffleIron#2395 on Mar 12, 2016, 10:45:04 PM	Posted by CaptainWaffleIron#2395 on Mar 12, 2016, 10:30:42 PM Quote this Post
Would be more fun than lab. 10/10 would play. ProbablyGettingNerfed - L100 Occultist Vinktarded - L100 Pathfinder GoogleDiversityHire - L100 Necromancer 3.13 was the pinnacle of PoE. IVYS+1 Gang 4 Life.	Posted by TheAshmaker#5078 on Mar 12, 2016, 10:41:08 PM Quote this Post
Another great advantage of this brilliant idea is that we should disable checkpoints and portals during the race. That way softcore players will experience the same adrenaline rush as hardcore players after they have successfully completed the challenge!!! This is extra brilliant because it completely ignores the fact that some softcore players might possibly like playing softcore more than hardcore and we can't have that!!!! Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired!

maybe the race track can be along a river so you can fish while racing?	Posted by pandasplaying#5756 on Mar 12, 2016, 10:49:27 PM Quote this Post

But since you replied to me anyway, I'll add another criticism:there were no Nascar races in any arpgs before, but there certainly were labyrinths, traps and gauntlets.
