State of the Beta - Post #3

Sounds good. Looking forward to trying out the new goodies and trying out the new vendor gem system. :)
I'm gonna be brutally honest: playing league style - I would assume that 150ms would be the top end of 'acceptably playable latency', and even that is pushing your tolerance, but you could get used to it. Any higher and it would just feel like crap.

So fucking stoked though...the hype is real.

For all the people asking about a wipe, important parts in bold:

I plan to play the Beta over the weekend regardless of whether there's a wipe next week or lot. There's a lot of cool stuff to test and I'm personally not bothered by playing through again if there is a wipe. Some players might choose to hold off on making characters on the off-chance that there is a wipe, but there's going to be no decision or announcement until the day. If that uncertainty is a big issue for you, play some Flashback Leagues in the meantime and wait for the patch day to see if a wipe occurs.

What the *poop* are these leech changes?
This has been a semi-talking about of GGG for like 3 podcats and 4-5 anns. In what magival way is leech changing that will fix so many game problems (I love being 100-0'd with 0 counterplay options available because "game design" right? Seriously, COUNTER PLAY IS ESSENTIAL IN MODERN, INTELLIGENT GAME DESIGN).

About 30 minutes before we deploy.

"Deterministic Lockstep is intended for users with low latency."

This is bothering me. This is the latest of several times I've heard this. Am I thinking backwards? To me, low latency is good and lockstep should be meant for those with high latency. Otherwise, thanks for the update!!

Act 4 areas and bosses past the Rapture Device are currently scheduled to be added in three weeks.
