"What we're working on"

Where is this post? What ARE you actually working on? Because I think most people would agree that Crucible could use some love, no matter if you like the mechanic or not.

Because what you're actually telling us by NOT changing anythig, is:
- We are happy about the fact that there's hardly any Crucible XP differences between low level zones and high level zones. You are also telling us that you're OK with a large portion of casual players being gated/locked away from engaging in the high level portion of Crucible (because we all know that the low level portion of Crucible is fun enough, right?).

Look, I'll be the first to understand that issues quickly appear when 300k players suddenly test your game, and that 300k players will find mistakes that a handful of alpha tester didn't. But should we interpret your radio silence on the matter as you telling us that "everything is like we want it to be"?

2 weeks in, i wouldnt expect anything more now

I heard they are having this kind of big event in a couple of months. Showcasing some new stuff there, I believe.

Well, it was rather obvious (from one of the announcements), that they extended both previous and this league span to offload their staff in preparation for Exilecon.

you should know better than anyone by now that they do 1-3 patches per league.. this time while they are "investigating" things the patch may or may not come at all.. the "what we're working on" moved to the "live updates" now..

and the league seems abandoned already..

Record number of players in this league. No need to change anything.

GGG bailed on this league faster than kalandra and scourge, just goes to show how much they care after people have spent money on supporter packs

At this point, I would almost bet that Crucible isn't getting any more patches, just a random bugfix or two from time to time.

It is OK... in every game and in rl.. if you don't put the work or the effort in.. you can't expect to get the rewards...

Thats easy question: The Vision of nerfing all and more mtx-es.

UR welcome.

the greater problem is, Crucible is incredibly boring. There is nothing to work to. Even in high level the only thing I'm doing right now is opening skill trees and vendoring the item afterwards, because lets face it, good nodes in the right position are rare as fuck and you always need a whole map to have another try. Maybe in 3 months i build something decent, but i don't count on it.
and outside of that, thats it. Those 30 second maps are not awesome, and the dropchance of the penultimate map? never even seen a fragment of it.
