lol really?

Are u really suprised people dont want a carebear league and an AH?So ye D3 admits it has some problems and all u wanna do is copy their problems?

The thing is D3 doesnt have many good parts to copy ...we already got the shiny light when unique drop but other than that....we dont really have any choises..


Blizz will be attempting to put the loot find back in aRPGs. Something they obliterated.
GGG could have learned from their mistakes and beaten them to it. Instead, they thought to emphasise the problem even more, then go one better and actually gate content behind shopping.

Both companies could, should learn from the mistakes and successes of themselves and each other.
One appears to be doing that, to a greater extent.


this is true based on whats been previewed. However PoE will release in what? A month? When is the D3 expansion coming? Next year?

This game has definite problems, D3 has far deeper problems though, and despite being out for more than 6 months longer than PoEs open beta all we have are promises that certain parts of this game are going to be added to that game, added long after this game goes to full release and we get a load of changes to this games problems.

the lack of communication from GGG means we dont know if the problems we care about are being fixed, so we come here and post to put pressure on those issues. But dont lose sight of the fact all Blizzard have done is announce something, that game is still a million miles worse than PoE right now and you are going to have to wait longer for changes to D3 than we are in PoE.


u ninjaed my thoughts lol

Meanwhile every time a mechanic remotely similar to that in Diablo 3 is suggested on here it immediately gets trolled into oblivion



so true...

endless dungeon

random map waves

diablo 3 took all the good thing poe has and made it better

but one mention of an endless random monster wave here in PoE and you get no responses

Derp
The rest of the 'end-game' content will be available along with a heap of new stuff when the game launches in a few months time. From what I've seen it's going to be awesome. - Michael_GGG
Looking forward to reaper of visas releasing myself

That way the trolls can go back home.

wat
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
so anyone who suggests random dungeons with waves of monsters is suddenly a troll >_>''

diablo 3 has loot 2.0 and is actually doing something about customiaation

same can't be said with PoE uniques...

would add tonnes of complexity if uniquues CAN actually be different

e.g. roll an extra line.

endless dungeon / random waves at ANY Time > mapping bro

or do you enjoy RNG being your end game?

Endless dungeon is the lazy man's mapping. PoE already had it in closed beta. The expansion is coming in a year or so, maybe wait until it's out before judging it. Not sure how people can get hyped about Blizzard games anymore, especially after the D3 disaster.

the concept of it is what is intriguing

and what they say they eventually do...

not that excited about the actual content until i see it in person

only thing i am excited about is account bound MF... which is tonnes better than picking and chooosing ANDVARIUS rings on all your characters over making higher powered characters.

Does anyone ever talk about the elite monsters in D3? I thought it was really cool how they get different mechanics instead of just "oh look this one is faster/more health/more resistance/more dmg"

theres no endless dungeon or waves in d3. There is waves in the unique crypt map in PoE, you know, actually in the game right now. They have endless ledge and descent, which have a chance of being added to the full leagues long before you see a Diablo 3 expansion pack on the shelves. You are measuring Blizzard Promises against PoE reality, and not even doing a good job of that. D3 are also adding maps, why not talk about that too seeing as everything you mention that has been promised for D3 is either already in PoE or will be before its a reality in D3.

loot 2.0 is a clusterfuck, if you go and look at the items they are previewing to show it off they are complete dogshit jokes for build defining items. 'Chance to spawn a hydra on kill' really? Thats a build defining unique that puts PoEs items to shame? Get real mate the items in d3 are a joke, will always be a joke, theres no builds to base items off and theres no items to base builds off because theres no mechanics in the game to support either.
I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)
