Internet Tough Guy was old long before 4chan.

New to PoE?

Welcome. Have fun! Make suggestions! Make friends!

Don't tease the kiwis!

If your suggestions regard to the micro, then by all means. Wanting core mechanics changed is not welcome.

@Smaggletooth
I agree with P2W and full respec and so on but one thing is imho wrong:

Loot system.
You are here since June, and even then the loot-debatte was not new and I dare to say that in CB the trend was in favor of instanced loot, or at least against FFA loot(+timer).
So I think that the new discussions about the loot system are well justified, I just wish we could keep it in one or two threads instead of 10+.

Well, I admit I am passionate about this game. These types of experiences in gaming are so few and far between these days.
I want the game to succeed, and for this to happen, it needs players. So I in no way want to shun off the new players.

I will say this...new players, please give this formula a shot...an honest to goodness shot.
Play a toon, get rolled on the right side of cruel a2, remake your toon, get rolled in merc, remake the toon and kick ass
All the while learn the mechanics, study the tree and ASK QUESTIONS in the forum.
I promise you it will be a fulfilling experience, actually getting better from your failures. You will be rewarded I promise!

peace

Thank you OP.

This forum needs more posts of this nature.

Bump because its awesome!

Agree strongly with all but p2w and ffa.

P2W exists whether you like it or not. Why not let the PLAYERS profit rather than the farmers?

FFA options seems like a smart choice. Still an option for you, and others have their own preferred options.

If you are new player..you should ignore everything what was said above and use your own brain.. you entered beta test and devs want your feedback.. so tell them whatever you want and ignore these tryhards..

You are welcome ;)

It would be really helpful if we could make a single cite that has a simple easy description of the core mechanics that are necessary to be successful. One that highlights the key terms that people need to look for. How to make that is the problem. :)

We have one, it's here: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/11707

Quoted just to repeat this is beta, nothing is set in stone.

Well, not that I totally disagree with you but let me try hard to explain my side of this

This game is being marketed as a hardcore ARPG and the fundamental mechanics that make POE what it is are these qualities that are being complained about.

I would never join a game that claims to be sololy pvp based with fantasy elements and bombard the forums with topics like "Too much fantasy, make it more realistic" or "too much pvp, I want more pve"

I just feel that if people want to pay to win, or want all of there loot not shown to others, there are other options for them

Again, I am passionate about this game, maybe to a fault, and I do want it to succeed and this would mean a good large player base, and I guess if the majority of people want these changes then it would have to be. Maybe I'm just a dieing breed and need to realize this is the direction of gaming.
