0.4.0c Hotfix 12

Ok so a t15 map, where you can get oneshotted worths 1 cristal more than a tier 1 map 0 mods, whats even the point lil brother

That was a terrible way to "believe" that it solved the problem... it actually helped those who exploited the Holten vulnerability. Terrible idea.

why exactly are people complaining about it now? t16 6 mod gives 6 crystals. you can build it yourself now.. stop crying. only people who need to cry are the people who were making a ton of currency resetting holten.

I don't even know what I've just read - how did you come to that conclusion? I am pretty sure the people who were making a ton of currency "resetting Holten" are very happy, because they already did it (you just had to do it to setup the temple), you did not have to do it all the time.

People "complain" about certain players farming ungodly amount of currency using clearly unintended (as the nerfs show) and overpowered strategy and then GGG nerfing this strategy (I don't think those players did anything wrong by the way, it is just GGG's mistake). But that doesn't change the fact that they did it, economy got obliterated, and now GGG is nerfing the "catch up mechanism" for players that were not abusing Holten, and buffing already created set ups - that were created by abusing Holten - by boosting the number of crystals they get from high tier maps (so they can re-run their already set up temples more often). So not sure where did your take come from, but it is completely delusional. And it is a valid "complain", as you put it.

Overall those are good changes, just not for this league: this is basically league-ender for people that were not doing the temple-snake strat, as now they will need what? 50-60 hours to set up the temple to try to catch up to the economy (althogh there is a chance that by the time the set it up, no one is playing anymore anyway).

I must say though, this was one of the worst leagues in how it was "managed" by GGG. Every decision they've made seemed to reward the players abusing the OP strats while throwing the logs under the feet of players that refused to do it and tried to play the game other way. It really does feel like you need to be for lookout every day on streams & YouTube for any new OP farming strategy and start doing it right away, otherwise you won't be able to catch up the economy EVER. If you're playing trade ladder, you cannot "pick a mechanic" to play (Ritual, Breach, Essences & Spirits, whatever), you have to do the OP things.

Another thing is: the big problems were with the two mechanics they've added last league (Abyss rare monster extravaganza) and this league (Temple snake) - clearly those mechanics need to be better tested in the future (I know the game is technically in EA state, but the leagues are run and played "as if" the game was fully released). So either react to those anomaly strats faster - don't let people farm it for a week and THEN nerf it - or test the strats better.

also crazy to say "you can earn more crystals based on tier and modifiers" and then its like 1 on lowest, 2 on maximum... like what ? and T16 with 6 mods supposed to get 6 crystals?!? wat?!?

all these fixes are nice for NEXT LEAGUE maybe, but this league is a goner

So your decision is to limit/punish regular players that didn't exploit the temple... and buff temple for all those who did and have already set it up.

Clap clap clap.


Is there anyone on the wheels in this company? A LOT (too many) of stupid decisions have been made lately towards game direction and balance.


And this season, firstly with abyss nerf and now temple... but MOSTLY is how you deal with things in general. Clearly, you are your own worst enemy.

I'm quitting this bullshit, not going to waste my time in a game were they clearly take us for fools and don't respect the player.



0.3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 0.1 >> 0.2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 0.4 (unfair broken league since the start for the 95% of player base)

Why so much crying. Yeah, this league failed, so I dont play it anymore. They removed (half)deterministic crafting, they made bad design decisions with temple, obliged people to grind again and again to recieve random outcomes. 0.3.0 was a great step forward, now we are a step back, so I vote with my playtime. People got a lot of divines? More power to them, it's not like they became new real life billionaires, it's just a game and it's all going to disappear in 0.5.0.

big joke 2 energy.

I want to know if GGG's employees will profit from this.
It's so disappointing.

Please help for Intel GPU players...

nerf the medallions so these idiots loose the unstoppable vaal temples
