The Multi-box Thread: How it ruins the game.
|
Ok, I dont see the problem with multiboxing and what I read here, and I really do is just:
 But let me explain: If I am able to play 2 Hours more then an other guy I will get more Items. So more playtime results in more Items. Should I blame people that are able to play more? No ofc not. It does not effect my play at all. I can still find items, and I want to find / craft my Items. Yes its frustrating if you grind for hours and no upgrade coming but buying one? No WAY! Its much more rewarding to finally find or craft an Item then just buying it. And that people are more efficient by using Multi Accounts then me playing solo or with friends is ok. I don't play for currency so I do not care. They have zero influence on my game. Its just a stupid QQ thread in my eyes. This happens if you have a lot of people that are just buying stuff because its so much easier. Remove this thinking that you have to buy things. This mindset killed D3 too. The AH is an option not the prime way to get items. But people don't want to understand. Ofc buying is more efficient but look at this way. Most efficient way to get sex is to pay for it. This whole dating and talking stuff is not efficient at all. But we still do it. So plz stop crying because some people are able to use a more efficient way to grind currency and Items then you. If you play for trading, well then just do it too. But keep in mind. Every player that is able to spend more time then you will get more items and you don't flame them. Strange that there is not QQ Post with a topic like "Streamer X sells much more because he has so many followers. This Guy is killing the game because if 5000k viewers just buy items of him I loose X Amount of currency" But I feels this will be the next QQ of the month spam in Forums Why you should try Harcore http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/209310/page/1

" Following your logic. So what's the problem in people paying real money for items or currency then, if you can afford it, clearly it's more efficient. Doesn't affect you, zero influence over your game. |

" Very sound conclusion. For years i searched for deep truths. A thousand revelations. At the very edge...the ability to think itself dissolves away.Thinking in human language is the problem. Any separation from 'the whole truth' is incomplete.My incomplete concepts may add to your 'whole truth', accept it or think about it

" One is against the ToS, the other one isn't. Aside from that I couldn't care less. |

" Both would be QQ threads. If someone wants to spend money he will do it. The thing still is you are not forced to do it. And not a big influence on others game too from my point of view. But I am the minority. I want to find/craft things by myself and not just pay for them and with that drastically reduce gametime to to get my perfect stats. But I am the minority in all games. Yes one of the 4% ME3 players that finished the game on hardest difficulty. So one of the 4% who really beat the game.

" Indeed, but that wasn't what tadl was arguing. I can't be entirely sure about the design intent, but as far as I can tell the game was designed specifically as a single character ARPG. I really have nothing against legitimate multiboxing, it's just that I think legitimate multiboxing would be quite rare and that there are many potential problems associated with multiboxing that's not so acceptable. There's also this: "While we haven't disclosed figures, we have banned a lot of accounts since we entered Open Beta. While there are limited ways people can actually cheat (maphacks, botting, input proxying across multiple sessions), these do have high impact on the game economy and we're working on improving our detection for these so that the zero-tolerance policy can be felt across the whole game." What exactly is input proxying across multiple sessions? I can't be sure, it seems a bit ambiguous. |

I lol'ed.
@OP: I heard all your arguments before, long before actually, maybe you remember: Jews are too rich, honest german people can´t compete with them. Jews cannot be outbid, so they run the economy, actually they are the economy, exploiting the german people. Jews need to be banned from our realms. And so on and so forth. The guy making these statements had a silly haircut and a funny beard. One more hint, you might had heard from that person in your history lessons, you just got on par with him.

I have been trough a lot of this kind of disccusions when I was playing Lineage 2 where multiboxing became a real plague, in the end it destroyed the game. The problem is that no matter how accurate are ur arguments and how well u explain how multiboxing destroys games those ppl just won't understand.
I have seen enough topics like this one to notice that for some reason multiboxers juts dont get it. I remember when i did my topics on Lineage forums about multiboxing and how I was attacked by outraged multiboxers that seen nothing wrong with it. This people don't understand the concept of gaming and are just plain lazy or sick to be better that others so they do anything that grants them advantage. Im sick of this kind of people, and Im sick of multiboxses, they seem to be everywhere those days. I suggest you to do something with them, cose I know what will happen, I have seen it already. Casual players will stop playing, competitive ground will require u to be a multiboxer to be any threat, and economy will collapse, in the end only multiboxers will stay playing solo with their multiboxes and every normal player will just move on, thats what happened to Lineage 2.

I have nothing against multibox, but I think quantity bonus should be reduced from 50% to 16%

" 90% correlation. These people were so 'wrong' that pretty much anything associated with them is now 'wrong'. And the result of ppl like this is that the double thunderbolt and a certain salute, which are very cool, are now likely to land you in jail. Once again i reiterate something i said deep deep into this topic; the free market is a broken system. Those with a lot of money, power, and those in the media can exploit the hell out of the system at the expense of others without. Is it their fault? They are just succeeding where others are failing. Blame is just easier than fixing the fundamental issue. Dont hate the player, hate the game. For years i searched for deep truths. A thousand revelations.
