Further Update to Map-only Uniques

Bad call imo. The best players should be the ones with access to the best uniques. Docks and archives farmers still have great access to currency drops to be able to purchase the best uniques with enough grinding. Risk/reward.


you are completely right.

and i never really had a problem with the drop rates.. i have had a shavronnes drop when i played just me and my friend. we sold it and split the money half way.
the only thing i dont agree with is the fact that content is locked away from the majority of the players. and yes of course people will say its not as long as you play enough and reach the criteria and bla bla but ye meh ive repeated myself too much now so ye im just going to log in and play the game.

Everything flows, nothing stands still.
Everything flows and nothing stays.
Everything flows and nothing abides.
Everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.
Everything flows; nothing remains.
All is flux, nothing is stationary.
All is flux, nothing stays still.
All flows, nothing stays.
Nothing endures but change.
There is nothing permanent except change.
Nothing is permanent except change.
The only constant is change.
Change is the only constant.
Change alone is unchanging.

So correct me if im wrong but the whole point of GGG trying to implement this idea of map only unique drops was to encourage people to play the high level content.

Instead of "fixing" YES "fixing" the map problems i.e. fucking near impossible to even get to high level maps (76+) unless of course the stated parameters are met (6 man team, no life, social network game of trading and spamming) they create a bigger issue which luckily they have somewhat resolved...

basically Chris... WHY IN THE WORLD dont you put in a damned cap on the lowest lvl map that can drop... same as the highest lvl map drop cap.... its really not at all unreasonable to make it +/- 2 lvls of the map you are in.

OR simply just fucking let us play the game... the full game... i have never ever played a game that didnt allow me to access certain content... because of the game designers preferences to gaming style. NEVER EVER... its just ridiculous.

Chris you DO realise that people wouldnt be complaining about no progression and hardly no content to play at end game if you just allowed everyone the access to high level maps.

its just ahh i dont know.. you know them ones when you just feel like picking someone up and shaking them in the air because they are just so stubborn and ignorant, those times they just fail or refuse to see the bigger picture.

you guys have made an amazing game that sooo many people want to play and one that is growing at a very alarming rate (the rate that your servers werent even prepared for so many players) but you dont allow 90% of the player base to experience the content.. the exciting content.. i dont even know what bosses there are on maps past lvl 74.. cause ive never dropped those maps. whether you realise this or not (seeing as your whole team has NEVER tried to play this game on a "medium budget PC" which unfortunately is probably 70% + player base... this game is not optimised yet. i can run this game on full details.. then switch to lowest details and it works WORSE.. thats right WORSE on low details. i dont know what kind of bogus optimisation that is.)

really i am sorry for all of the things i said out of rage and anger in the previous thread. but its just frustrating to have the funnest game infront of you and not be able to access the best content of it. like really when you released the info about new maps coming out i really didnt give a shit... and i dont like saying this but i hope you feel unappreciated for that.. because i am sure 90% of the player base feels unappreciated for not being allowed to play that content.


You have to work for it, boy. Not being able to easily obtain end-game items and content is what makes it that much sweeter once you do. Don't always try to take the easiest way.

kamil: I can see in your profile that your highest standard character is lvl 82. Thats achievable in 3 days of playing. And you want to play lvl 77 maps? What else you want? Chris surely delivers..


I have a level 76 in Domination. Play solo, self-found. Level 76 was not achievable in 3 days. Level 76 to Level 82 won't be achievable in 3 days either. Getting to 76 was more Piety/Catacomb runs than I care to count. What's more, in all the runs I have found a grand total of 19 level 66 maps. That's a pathetically small map pool to start mapping and the 66 map XP will be just as bad or worse than Piety/Catacomb.

I really wish GGG would get off the "must trade, must group, must map" train in order to get past level 75 and find the top-end rare/unique items. It sucks being stuck in level 66/67 content that's too easy while waiting on RNG to give you maps to progress, especially when the good items are gated behind 68+ content.
Ok I checked your profiles and you all from softcore.. We can hardly understand each other, different worlds. That was misunderstanding.. Have fun taking shrines and dying every minute..

edit: lvl 80 is obtainable in 3 days of playing.. Currently almost lvl 82 nemesis, leauge exists one week, dear boy.

You know finally make going to the super end game worth something, and then u change it so any scrub with rarity and the docks waypoint can get the best items in the game again. FAIL!

Before you go throwing mud, see how far you can get..

Solo
Self found
No trading at all, even selling for orbs
Without ever logging out of a bad situation
Direct path, no WP grants, no Rushes, no farm safe spots.

FYI, 88 before dying to a bug that I could have logged out of.

Now, I'm a baddie bad, a scrub.
Rate yourself now.
Casually casual.

why must humans always create division?

how many sides does a globe have?
..."0"


yet we have managed to separate/divide ourselves more times than we can count.

state, country, region, religion, wealth..... the list goes on and on dividing ourselves more and more until we come to a place of total seclusion deep inside. to the point where all that remains is comparison and the analysis of our made up separation.

i have strayed away from the topic of the game so i will stop.. this post is more suited for a different place.
