But in both cases, it's bad for the game since low TTK gets even lower. They make the game less accessible for the average user with each update. And for some reason people celebrate the low TTK. People need to realize that games like this do not survive without a casual playerbase and Ironmace is doing almost everything they can to make the game unappealing to the casual player

[@grindtoothmedia120]

@@anonanon8252History shows this to be true of games that hinder new player growth. When the sales drop far enough, the devs will be forced into monetizing the game in other ways, many of which tend to divide and upset people a great deal more. Also, above average players that believe themselves to be superior now, end up being fodder for the top 5% dominating everything. Eventually, you end up with a dead game full of sweaty whales dictating what constitutes fun. If new players can't get into the game and feel like they have a chance at progressing and improving, they'll bail and denounce the game as gate kept by sweaty no-lifer gamers. You might not like them, but the casual new player is the pipeline to keeping this game alive well into the future, if you push them out at a high enough percentage, the game will stagnate in growth, then decline rapidly. Everyone loses in the end.

I still dont think the game is in a place to be released on other platforms, currently they have a dedicated player base that can and will test changes for them, whereas on Epic / Steam - if people have issues with the game at the start , then thats it they most likely wont come back.

[@anonanon8252]

Another idea I'd had for making the game less "caters to sweatlords": all rarities of gear have the same number of random modifiers, likely 3 per item. Base stats per rarity can be a little higher per tier of gear. The fundamental change would be the pool of rolls available for each rarity of gear. Green gear would have all possible rolls in the pool. Blue gear, you remove a few of the bad rolls from the pool, like interaction speed, buff/debuff bonus, etc. Purple gear, you remove a few more of the bad rolls from the pool. And so on and so on. This would allow them to make epic and legendary gear ACTUALLY feel that way since when that gear DOES drop you know you're getting a REALLY good piece because there are few/no bad random modifiers in the pool. But it also allows the casual player to get that amazing gear in blue and green form, it would just have slightly less base stats than its purple/orange/artifact counterparts, and be a lot rarer to receive since there are more (and worse) random modifiers in the pool. I wish they would experiment with this for a season.

Dude i couldn't agree with you more. You hit the nail on the head for every issue, they need to just hire you at this point.

[@Wulfrim]

I don't know if you already know but throwables like axes did get nerfed. They have an equip time now like crossbows. Bows also got this, so slayers like me can't hotswap to bow from windlass like before. Still doesn't stop a barb from having 12 axes ready at the beginning of the fight, but at least they do have to slow down considerably to reequip more

[@anonanon8252]

Spuddy you hit the nail on the head--the first week of wipe is fun and then the issues with the game become exponentially revealed. Watched your stream today and you had the best idea I've heard: just have gear affect PVE. PVP is based on baseline stats so it can actually be balanced. There's simply too many variables for them to have base stats on gear, random modifiers, varying rarities--there's just no realistic way to balance that, it's the same issue with WoW PVP. Something is going to be insanely broken, and something is going to be borderline unplayable. It's a really bad way to design a game. The current system is bad. It makes the PVE boring because you just walk over it (or ignore it entirely and lock it behind a door). It makes the PVP frustrating because in most cases you either get steamrolled or it's you steamrolling someone else. It's very rare that a PVP battle falls somewhere in the middle. So if they made PVP just utilize baseline stats and values for each class, they could actually make the PVE difficult and balance gear around it. They could design maps with a PvE focus and allow the PVP to be an *element* of the game. Right now, it feels like the PvE is an element of the game, when it should be an important part of each dungeon, and the PVP is..... well, it's something.

[@TheSpudHunter]

Well written man, I doubt we'd see such fundamental changes though. It's a complete 180 for what they've been struggling to accomplish for ages. I hope something good comes of it.

[@anonanon8252]

One further thought: currently, dying in the dungeon is insanely punishing, since losing your gear weakens you in PVE but more importantly in PVP. You just lost a fight to someone, and now the next one will be even harder. Contrast this to a game where the gear only affects PVE: it's still fun to kill a player and take their gear because you can either use it to be stronger against monsters, or sell it. Looting gear is fun because you get stronger against the primary element of the dungeon, the PVE. Dying isn't as big of a deal because yeah, the monsters will take a little longer to kill, but your chances of killing another player are not decreasing every time you die. Gear changing hands is a GOOD THING in a game like this. But the current system only allows the strongest players to accumulate infinite wealth while the average player struggles to assemble a competitive kit, just dying to PVP again and again. It's a system that will only ensure that there is no casual playerbase for the game.

[@son_done]

[@snakyjake9]

Long term IM won't have a choice to do anything but map rotation, unless they never want to make a new map ever again. In my experience, trios want rotation the least and solos want it the most. If it were up to me: Solos: full map rotation, with either 3x3 or 4x4 GC Duos: full map rotation, with either 4x4 or 5x5 GC Trios: no map rotation until Frost Mountain is finished, providing a more comparable experience to Forgotten Castle.

[@saint_snow]

12:26 oh no that's also what happens in crypts too since they changed the circle timing a couple hotfixes ago. The one after they made just crypts available towards the end of last wipe. You now just spawn and have to start making your way to the circle or where you think its going to be becuase the first circle encompases the whole map. You have some time to loot as you go along but you really have to be aware of the circle over the course of the match. Because otherwise it's essentially chase the circle to be there towards the end or else you end up having to frantically find portals without being able to A. loot fights you won or B. fight at all at the end bc if you do, you all end up dying to zone. The only map this doesnt happen on currently is frozen caves because it got no changes other than a couple of statics removed. So the zone timing is fine.

Gobolin cave....god what a mixed relationship, on the one hand it's chaos...on the other hand i'm a cleric and i haven't been able to get out more than 3 times. it actually reminded me that the meta hasn't changed in the slightest, that speed is king for every single class, no exception. 4. The Squire is dope, gives classes more variety, i hope they have him increase his inventory and the quality up to Whites as you complete quests for the other merchants....granting loading up as anything but the fastest is a terrible idea.. good news and changes, though i still wish they put more mechanics into the combat system so it's not just speed/kite meta as it's been for months. and yeah francs are still busted on the fact they hit so hard while haviing NO MOVEMENT DRAWBACKS unlike all us casters.

[@e3.14c4]

Here's to hoping they use that data they kept showing off like it meant something. The seemingly constant whiplash of coddling outcries instead of looking at the health of the game in isolation of player trends, is the main reason I am still skeptical. Active playerbases are good and all, but the formula for the game has staggered so hard off of the playtests that it almost feels alien to play. The pitch of a medieval dungeon delver that becomes entrapped by the appeal of it's plunder is slowly becoming tarkov skyrim, so much so that I played quake champions instead just to get a feel for it again.

I think they should have a "ranged" slot. It holds arrows for rangers axes for barbs and knives for rogues and whatever for fighter.

EU server balance is already shit a day into the wipe xD, everyone in high rollers rocking +30 and sometimes +40 on main stats for their class + the extra bonuses from the gear. Tried playing legit 18 hours after wipe and I'm getting rolled by +2 all attributes full gear banobos, dunno if there is some trick people are using or if the no life is this insane. At least normals now has a place for you to gear very slowly an not get one shotted. I give it 5 days so most people get level 15 and access to Market, then it either balances itself out a little bit or complete chaos. Edit: I agree with Map Rotation now that the Ruins are gone

[@grimmow187]

yep my thoughts exactly. i'm just thinking here why are the levels still a thing, why not just unlock everything from the get go? because its not fun to play as lv1 against lv 20+. like whats the point on putting perks behind farm? and the new multi classing suggests that you need to level up multiple classes to access more things. you know a lot of people don't have that kinda time. are they saying casuals don't have a place in this game?

Which means low hp phys dmg classes are in the gutter here. Which means warlock and wiz are needed in all comps late game. Warlocks have a waaay easier time getting their movespeed up, they profit the most by far from the extra addi/tru magic dmg they added and if everyone has more hp, the. Warlocks insta heal is waaay stronger all of the sudden. Which brings me to wizard. All attributes is insane for wiz for general stats. But more importantly u get so much knowledge and with that memory that u can run spell overload with 10 spells and just have double the spells at no real cost (cuz in bis ur gonna have that memory anyways) OR U just run arcane shield and ice shield, u build some armor and health and u can auto diff every class not running a shield cuz magic missile has the best dmg in the game. U can get loads of effective health this way so bis wizard is just gonna be tank wizard u can melee down...

I wonder what would happen if someone was blocking and you put the explosion spell right on their shield and they dropped the shield on the ground like "HOT HOT HOT!" would the explosion still be on the player? or on the shield on the ground?
