Making fun of others is not helping your cause a bit. Hardcore and Softcore are exactly the same game.

^^ lol

They are......

There is absolutely not one thing different besides the death penalty. If you think my advice means any less because its coming from someone in SC. You are badly mistaken.

Enjoy docks btw, back to my stash of maps which is already above 50.

Peace.

How much quantity are you running with again?

supposedly this doesnt affect map drops, however my experience of playing with high quant parties is that maps drop a lot more maps when the average quant is higher. They drop more stuff, hence, they drop more maps.............

AFAIK it still affects map drops when farming outside of maps, (someone correct me if I'm wrong). ie Docks or Temple

I only asked the question as that seems to be the pressing issue for this one player.

Have fun, SC must be so thrilling.

I too am constantly running out of maps, and it is highly disappointing. The main thing with ARPGs is the addictive nature to keep playing, because of the constant forward progression.

Bad RNG in the map drop rates just seems... contrary to that. I just ran 3 maps and ended up with 0, and now it is giving me the feeling that I shouldn't stay logged in.

You should understand that different people enjoy different thrills. If you enjoy the thrill of being "exiled" to Default on death and playing super-safe defensive builds to remain alive, others enjoy experimenting more and venturing off through the skill tree, which might not result in optimal builds, but makes the game more fun for that certain user. And this is just an example. As Open Beta continues, there will be more and more people like this, increasing diversity of PoE player-base a lot.

My opinion is that you shouldn't discard other player's opinions, just because they seek their thrill somewhere else. And I say this even as I (not entirely though) disagree with SL4Y3R and (not entirely) agree with you on the topic. But we need to keep this fair, gentlemanly and civilised.

I agree, enough with the HC/SC debate, it is pointless for this threads purpose. I don't dismiss his opinions because he plays SC, he has just done nothing to contribute to the thread, only boasting because he has tons of maps, that we all must be wrong. I'm STILL waiting for someone to give me a reason why RNG dependent end game is in any way fun or well designed.

Actually, you, the OP have done nothing to contribute to this thread.

I have:

suggested/agreed with selling lvl66 maps for a chaos.

Agreed that reinstating MoC at a mlvl of less than 64 would be a good idea. As it would be random, and have a higher chance for map drops.

Stated several times that Docks is not the best place.

While you simply continue to grumble about solo play vs. group, brought up SC/HC for some reason, and thought farming for 5 runs was plenty to get what you wanted.

Instead of complaining in here all the time. Go farm. Hell, prolly could've had quite a few maps by now.

I've tried, it's just too boring and not fun. Reminds me of D3, falling asleep at the keyboard after 1 run of A3.
