Hype! So glad this one wasn't made voided. Imagine my disappointment after grinding in the Mayhem race for two weeks, and finding my level 88 character UNPLAYABLE in Standart after it was over! Screw all of the haters asking for a Void league, as if that's any more """fun""" than this. If they really wanted this game to succeed, they'd want more people to be playing it, and no mentally stable person is going to waste their time in a Void league, knowing fully well the character and gear will all be destroyed by the end of it.

Something I still don't get is why only the top 5 players of each Ascendancy class get Demis. While I'll still definitely be playing for the crazy loot of Turmoil, many people will probably be turned off by the fact that they can't have a life and need to play 8+ hours a day to win a Demi. Again, if you want your game to succeed, you want people to play it, and this is NOT how you get more people to play your game, just the nolife players at the top who are less likely to buy mtx anyway, as they probably don't have jobs.

All of that aside, aren't you guys afraid that the overflow of loot in Turmoil will damage the economies of the permanent leagues? I mean, 5 Breaches per zone... Jesus... That's literally FIFTY times as many as the regular Breach spawn rates on the beta. I'm a bit worried you may have gone a little too far with this one, but if somebody's gonna be there to take advantage of it, it'll be me! :D

The standard leagues already have garbage economies. Anything you find in the breaches will be worthless compared to the flood of legacy rares and uniques in standard. Even with mayhem level mods, the loot and currency generated in 2 weeks wouldn't make a dent in the permanents.

Can't tell if trolling. Dude you realize that Standard has an already ruined economy full of items that have been flushed down to it by all the previous leagues? If anything Legacy league will be more damaging than this 2 week race. I'm not even going to mention regular HC because that league is dead af.

As for void league I rather have gotten a voided league and this is coming from someone working 45 hours a week. I don't play any of the permanent leagues and only the new ones with fresh economies. I haven't bothered playing HC/STD in years. I find """"FUN""""" in playing in a fresh league and find """""THRILL"""""" in a harsh and hard environment. Mayhem was actually pretty fun and I just wanted a little bit more """CRAZY"""" stuff. I'll still play this SSF HC 2 week, but I feel like I'll be let down after playing Mayhem prior to this.
This kind of events ruin the economy of standart, the most important and precious league, screw the fun, preserve standart economy.

You just copy my massage and post?

I would like to clarify something, since it was somewhat hinted at in the announcement thread. If you die in either of the HC events, is your toon getting in the softcore event or in straight up standard?

Also, good job GGG for this event, any negative feedback is just biased from the previous mayhem event, it is a matter of perspective, if you made this event first, people would've been delighted by the added difficulty. May I suggest however that in the future you make multiple mods present at once, what is really scary in this game isn't any one thing in particular but the combination and synergy among multiple mods. Something like ghosted exiles or breach/beyond, something like corrupted lootboxes could also be fun or something very drastic like all the mobs in the zone are blue or yellow. You could also have every zone roll map mods over the top.

I also would've had a work arround your 3 event max problem, you make a sc ssf league with a death counter, then create 2 leaderboards, one for the people that died and one for the people that didn't, or simply have a red dot next to anyone who didn't die yet on the leaderboard.

The voided theme seem to have been quite of a problem, in the future may I suggest you make a permanent standard ssf league that you cannot opt out of. This way you can have people continue playing their race toons in a ssf setting without impacting the standard/hc economy.

Based on the idea that it doesn't matter where somebody is playing, or what he is playing, I would like to see a permanent racing hub. Something like a permanent leaderboard for all the cool short races we've had in the past. Things like one hour solo, endless ledge and all the hundred others that happened throughout the years. The idea would be that you can login for an hour and do an endless ledge by yourself that would be recorded and put on a global leaderboard. You could put monthly wipes/rewards for each setting to keep it interesting. This would fix the problem a lot of people had of not beeing able to attend despite really wanting to race.

Once again, thanks a lot GGG for giving us something to do in the interim, I hope you knock the next expension out of the park.

SSF HC Event -> Standard SSF
HC Event -> Standard SC
When night falls
She cloaks the world
In impenetrable darkness
I'm ready ! You can start the event right now :D

Also, what happened to the "100 beta keys each day" (for the top 15k players of each league) ?
