Would you want PoE 2?

Jonathan Rogers stated in the recent Baeclast#32 that their engine is very good and he actually got visibly annoyed and frustrated when it was brought up explaining he really dislikes people who complain about it because issues are generally server side related and not engine related.

The idea is most people including yourself have no clue on how to distinguis engine issues from server side issues.

Check out the video and you may learn something.

Yeah I saw that podcast but still.. people complain legit.

go to your hideout.. stand still..spam one skill.. and your fps drops by 30%.. is this server side? Seriously? yeah I mean who would be happy about that. :|

Or when you run around monsters without killing them and the fps also drops by significant 20-30%... server side problem? I dont know, but rip fps anyway..

PoE 2 has no room in my plans right now, not in ARPG gender at least.

PoE 2 would have to bring something completely different to the table, not just new lore or graphics. The game would have to be fundamentally different. Maybe VR experience? Or 1st person MMO like play style ? Something like Wildstar from PoE lore, but it's a bad example as that mmo failed :)
That's the problem, the likelyhood of PoE2 failure is way too high. Continuously building PoE 1(current) is still better choice as long as the devs aren't out of steam to produce new stuff and improve the game.


For me, PoE would have to be 1st person VR experience :)

People who think this is going to be solved in 4.0 are dreaming... Maybe we ask the dev from the video what he expects kappa.

Yes. They should. People leave POE because of the weird dsync lag (yes, it still exists) and the fact that it looks old. I come back to it every year or so because the game is awesome but the same problems still occur which totally kills my drive to play it. The game mechanics are incredible but it feels bad to play.

Which dsync lag? Server are fine, sync is fine. Must be at your side.

Graphic is fine. No need to add more fancy effects if just 0.001% can use them at their overcloaked I9 3x Titan XYZ who payed more then other for their cars.

Btw why do you want a better graphic engine if your IPhone can't even hold a stable connection? :)

Real: I had 1 DC the last 3 leagues and it was a server-crash.

I do any bet your builds are just to terrible (like dual Poets Pen bunny jump spammer) playing via W-Lan with 500 ms ping.

This game will never get huge unless they ZOOM the **** out. I mean until they can pull that camera back some, then it'll keep turning people away.

Troll?

POE 4.0 will be the POE 2 ... it has been confirmed that the 4.0 is to "counter" Diablo 4. So we can highly suppose that there is a graphic/UI rework with it.

That sounds awesome, cant wait to see it!

I'm not trolling. Anyone coming from Diablo is going to be immediately turned off by the superzoom this game has. It's literally so zoomed that it really limits any kind of tactical gameplay elements.
