Can we delete hardcore league because it splits the already small community?

This game wasn't made for SFL. Is it that hard to just not trade with people? We don't need 6 different leagues. Other than increased drop rates what would be the benefit of SFL? RNG is already RNG. I just don't understand all this massive "QQ I quit no SFL" like it was ever promised in the first place.

Edit: I'd rather them work on balancing a cutthroat league than a SFL.


No power trading / flipping so that only the rich get richer would be the point.

All players in a SFL league would be playing on a much fairer basis. Finding / crafting / owning godly gear on SFL would be vastly more rewarding than just trading for all the best gear.


More rewarding and vastly harder, even with buffed drop rates.

And then we could say, a lot of players would just quit the game, whereas, not including SFL, just means that people occassionally moan about it, where, those who really want to play SFL, do so.


Your assuming that people have not quit the game because of a lack of a balanced SFL...

This argument has poor logic. Where would any of the temporary hardcore leagues go then after they end?? To default? It's just not comparable to a SFL in such regard.

imho, all this demand for Self-Found league stems from the (current) terrible implementation of trading, and the fact that people (myself included) just can't tolerate it.

I'd use a well-implemented, sensibly-designed automated trading post tomorrow if it was available, but I've joined the trade channel precisely one time - just so I can say that I stared into the abyss.

Make a game balanced around trading, don't put in auction house because too WoWlike.

No SFL because 'ZOMFG, that's too WoWlike with BiP loot'.

The reasoning given behind development decisions is pure LEL.


More convenient trading is coming in ~4 months.

No SFL because it wouldn't make any sense. Is your point that you want to compete on the ladder? If you don't belong to the .1% of the no-lifers you can't do that anyway.

In his reasoning, Chris mentions that trading is a vital part of the game. The hardcore economy differs a lot from the softcore one, while playing self-found has no impact on the economy (and the other way round) at all. Your argument in the opnening post seems invalid.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

Yes, it is completely comparable to sfl.

Both hardcore and SFL are smaller groups(I assume) that want separate leagues to play. Both groups COULD play in softcore exactly how they play now. Its exactly the same.

Then perhaps, MierenEronaile, I am influenced by previous attacks on Hardcore players that Bhavv has made in the past, on the forums, and he will use any way possible to attack them. Whether he is talking about SFL or something else.


Paranoid much?


Not paranoid, just saying that your previous history influenced me. I don't see what this has to do with paranoia at all?

The problem is that argument about how hardcore players cant play softcore cause they cant trade with only other hardcores is true of a self found players ability to group as well.

Chris totally missed this in his argument against sfl - SFL does not = solo, and you cant group with people and maintain the purity of SF because you cant know the others dont trade.

Just like a hardcore player couldnt buy loot safely in softcore because the loot could come from people who die.
