Can we get a /players 6 command?
" Ok, I'll bite :) As it is you can already make party games with up to 6 players. Non of these has to participate in the killing, nor do they have to take their fair share of loot. Come open beta, you can do this all on your own. Give that, how is it unfair if there was a command that enabled a player to add virtual players to a game instance? Also you do realize that you don't not have to scale drop the same as with real players. I still fail to see the downside, I would even love to see this for party games - 6 guys could play, and to up the fun and danger they could up the difficulty with 6 more virtual players. Still sane exile?

" 1) every Skill can be AoE thanks to Multiple Projectiles Gem 2) even without Multiple Projectile you have Split Arrow and Rain of Arrows, yes Rain of Arrows can only hit on screen, but with Split Arrow or Multiple Projectiles you can shoot off the screen 3) with frenzy you can shoot 2 or 3 volleys very fast (read before taking the 1st damage), when every of that ~10-15 arrows hits one of the mobs with the aura on them thats pretty much reflect damage...Pierce (via support gem or passive) can make it even worse | |
"You can evade reflected attack damage, but not reflected spell damage. | |
"oh ok, nice, then that problem is gone I guess :D | |
"This is not the case, all the remaining damage from flying arrows is applied at the point the attack animation finishes, so it has already happened by the time you fire again, regardless of attack speed. The only exception to this, to my knowledge, is possibly in the case of lag in getting the damage packages to the client. | |
"You lose all credibility if you propose that the easiest and hardest difficulties would offer the same rate of progression. "Every league in PoE is ranked. The entire game is meant to include this aspect, as it's a core feature of the game. I would bet heavily that GGG won't change this just for the sake of allowing another feature that would require even more development and testing time, when they already have a system in place to handle the concept. "The fact that an exploit is possible doesn't mean it should become a feature. If anything, we should be making requests to disallow the exploit in the first place.

" Sure, you can still exploit the game. Someone will always find a way to do that. But at least it is a bit more work and harder to do than if it was a slash command. "That's how you die properly, Sailor Boy.."

" Because it is "hard" it is fair? But something that is easy, and anyone can do is unfair? I think you need to explain exactly why its is unfair (or not). Still sane exile?

" It's nigh impossible to make them offer the exact same rate of progression, but there is absoultely no reason why the easier have to be far better than the harder. Best availble rate of progresson should be in the the hardest setting, but it should require really stong characters and very experienced players to achive. " Not talking about unranked leagues, just an option to remove your character from the ladder. That should be an option even if they don't offer selectable difficulties. The system inplace does not deal with the problems. If you had ever played a game with difficulty settings in addition to "higher levels = harder" you would know how well it works. |

" Ofcourse it can. Why couldn't it? Because you said so? |
