so you want the game to be exactly how you like it? 'free to play' game is a business model requiring steady influx of new players. this == cattering to 'noobs'. deal with that. GGG to survive as a company HAS TO listen to rants such as mine. if these start to repeat itself they will have to cave in. no matter what 'hardcore' and 'pro' players think/whine they are in minority and they are NOT the source of GGG income. if you are anywhere near the IT industry - calculate OPEX for software company of 20 people and realize that money has to come in from somewhere.
MT model requires people to not get pissed/scammed for long enough to not quit before doing micropurchase. desync covers the first, second is covered greatly by knowledge-deprived economy. and i do not see me stopping voicing my opinion AND playing the game at the same time - this is a free to play game that i once hoped to turn awesome. it has been a downhill since open beta sadly.. |

" sure they have to pay their bills but the first goal was and still is to make the game they always wanted to play. that's also the reason why they care so much about their player base. sometimes too much for my taste. " there is a difference between pointing ggg to the problematic parts of the game and blaming them for it. give them a chance to fix the game until release. " we all do know it's the case. chris stated their release plan, though not on this site imo. " they didn't focus on certain parts, every programmer has it's own job and the guy doing the core engine can't be assigned to do some textures. " wrong, ggg does a great job fighting rmt sites but they keep their actions in the background for their own reasons. please stop generally blaming players of cheating and spreading fud. " new players are always welcome but poe already has a stable fan base which has donated alot in the past and is still donating. othwewise hey couldn't have hired a new programmer some weeks ago. age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!

Hopefully it'll be a pleasure to play?
What is supposed to give us pleasure exactly? The content added in this patch is pretty much none existent..1 new skill gem that only a few people will be able to use and you gave a boss an already existing skill to use as well as some adds. Damn the excitement is killing me. But you did manage to stream line your code a bit, congratulations. |

The work on optimizing most or all of the art assets in-game was alone enough to justify a patch and represented a massive amount of man-hours spent re-coding a whole lot of stuff. Keep harping, though: I have to think GGG has seriously thought on all this, but in the light of what this patch will (hopefully) accomplish, I think Chris and Co. can be forgiven for not fixing meele, wealth-creation, sporkers, etc.
Game crashes are game-killers. RMT does not crash the client (though it does hurt things, I'll grant you). GGG is putting their focus where it should be...for now. :-) " |

Too many ungrateful dicks in here. This is a great patch, stop feeling obligated to bitch like GGG owes you more then they give. This company especially being what it is/started as has supported this game amazingly.
GGG, the ADA of gaming....huuuur i gotz mai skilz.

Awesome as always, GGG. Keep up the great work and please ignore the hate. We know you're working on it. As always. ;)

" Amen! I get people being frustrated over long-overdue tweaks, but let's face facts: 1. This game exists. 2. It is more-than-functional. 3. GGG is not Blizzard. It does not have Blizz-esque resources. It has a limited staff. 4. GGG is privately-held. Chris has the gold. He makes the rules. And it will remain privately-held. And if Chris ever sells out, we all walk. 5. The game looks gorgeous. 6. Gameplay is quite acceptable. Yes, melee is bonk right now, but we are in the biggest open-beta in history. GGG is still working things out. 7. This company is the most-accessible I have ever seen in gaming unless the CCP of the last two years beats it out there. 8. Chris seems to be a very-smart and very-nice individual who attracts like. 9. The pay-for-free-non-play-to-win is more-than-novel and is worth supporting. Ergo... GGG does not need to not have the good things it's doing not taken into account. Let's get out of ourselves and take in the entire picture. Peace - out. |
