Race Event Season One announced!

I would just love to have some events for the East Coast. 4:00 PM is too early as i'll still be working, and 12:00 AM is going to make me too tired for work the next day. The only chance i'll get is maybe on the weekends.

Somebody is trying the League of Legends approach in a hope to earning more money. Which is pefectly fine. However:

Prizes suck I dont care about uniques, I want to craft my items with orbs!
Prizes are casual unfriendly Earning points to spend them for uniques? Really? So If you are 459 poits in the end you just wont get that shield???
Prizes takes too long to get I dont wanna spend 100 hours for one shield. Its not even casual unfriendly , its normal player unfriendly.
Where is inovation? Some people mentioned before..where is kill bosses race, cuthroat race, exp +300% race? Why is everything so dull?
Scrap it
Inflation, seriously???? So instead of making ways to spend orbs you are limiting the gain to them? Now aint that stupid? Just make a pet that costs 10exalts/50gcp/150chaos. Thats the way to kill inflation. Also dont pull the d3 bullshit argument on me how much is economy crucial to gameplay, when you are the ones controling it 100% in the end(You can adjust all rates!!).

Its a shame hackers have to do your job. I expected more.

You should really focus guys.

Here's an idea:

Make RP like the Microtransaction points and have us keep them at the end of every race and season.

Then, there's a shop filled with all sorts of goodies that we can buy with them that we can't get anywhere else in the game. Except, that certain items are only there for X amount of time. Usually just after a race/season. Very exclusive.

It's Chuckie Cheese's model. Go with that.

Does the seasons mean that you keep you character for each race?

Imagine that, the guy whining about everything also visits hacking/bot sites...

The race times seem really strange for people in the central or eastern time zone with jobs. I work a typical 9-5 and go to sleep each night between 12-1am.

This basically means I'll be sleeping or working during every event except those on the weekend.

I realize you do not want to fracture the community by making different seasons for each region but what about a cap on the number of events each player can participate in?

For example, each account can only participate in a max of 50 events per season?

Really excited about this. Races tied together in a season format will really make things interesting, and I like the removal of currency items from individual rewards.

Also, I love all the casuals whining about being casuals. GG GGG for not catering to them. They can still play the game 1-2 hours a week, while people who want to put in the time and effort to practice and get better at the game they love can do so, and be rewarded appropriately.

You really dont have anything constructive to say and if you checked the link i posted you would have known it adjusts the number of particles on the screen. It makes the game playable. I am not using any unfair hacks. I am just using program that makes this game playable on a computer that can run skyrim battles/dragons but cant run path of exile 4/6 man parties. Stop acting as ignorant prick.

This is by far the dumbest move I've seen from GGG so far.

-Unappealing prizes (except to pure collectors, typically in this type of game most people collect things that are USEFUL to their characters, not happening here)
-Hours tailored specifically to nolifers in the EST time zone.
-Retarded race grinding with no tangible rewards for individual race performance.


"HEY GUYS WE'VE BEEN IMPRESSED BY THE POPULARITY OF RACES IN CLOSED BETA, SO WE'VE DECIDED TO COMPLETELY SCRAP THAT REWARD SYSTEM AND GIVE YOU SOME SHITTY STASH ART THAT YOU'LL NEED TO GRIND A FUCKTON FOR INSTEAD, I THINK THIS WILL TURN OUT GREAT GUISE ALSO I AM LEAD DESIGNER FYI"

"OH AND THIS IS TO SAVE THE ECONOMY WHICH IS FUCKED ANYWAY BECAUSE WE HAVE NO ITEM SINKS IN PLACE, BUT WE'RE SAVING THE ECONOMY GUYS, JUST TRUST ME I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING. ENJOY YOUR 50 RACES FOR OUR SHITTY STASH ART!"


Very nice move there Chris.

Go be casual somewhere else. Like, for example, by not playing in the season.

Did you even read the announcement post? They're still testing and calibrating new race formats. But since you've already stated you "dont [sic] care about uniques," why would you care.

You should probably request a refund on that mail-order economics degree.
