I'm so Glad that I declined...

That's my problem. They didn't removed it... They forced you to group play with this IIR.

IIQ is generally considered better than IIR. They removed IIQ and added an equal amount of IIR. Additionally, all monsters got their HP buffed in party play. Parties got nerfed, if anything.

...my payment plan for Eternal Supporter pack.
I really am. I had a feeling that patch will be a disaster. So I quickly sent them an e-mail to decline my payment plan.

Holy banana, it was one of the best predictions I ever made which saved me quite a lot of money actually.

I'm a solo player. Period. From time to time I play with a friend... but I still play 98% of the time solo.

Why? I can play in my own speed and time. No need to wait for others, I can rush, or explore, or do whatever I like to do. No need to wait for others, or don't do things I want because others want different things.

Will solo play be available after this horrible patch? Yes it will.

Will solo play be viable or competitive? Hell no.

Thanks for killing the gameplay for some of us GGG.

Well... Just another badly invested 250$.

You will be dead wrong.

The amount of times I heard this under this long, long beta period...

Let's just say. I'm usually right.

This isn't the case about right or wrong. It's about numbers. Numbers don't lie.

Now, knowing GGG for some unknown reason tries to force every1 into group play, and predicting the New Tree will follow the same pattern...

I will be right.

If for whatever reason turns out the Tree is super good (I doubt to be honest), I'll be sure to apologize

PS.: Love these forums. Same old fans keep barging in the topics defending the game.

The simple fact it needs to be defended is a clear sign that the game is heading in the wrong way.

because they want to encourage group play? Remember how miserable partying in d3 was?

I play solo mostly and I don't see all this end of the world stuff that people keep going on about.
Can you explain it for me?

I feel you... I almost decided to go for the $12,500.00 pack, but I decided to give it a test run first with a divine pack. Check out my thread http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/546071. It's a huge petition atm, and I even had it in general chat, and it was moved to "suggestions" for obvious reasons. I was even scolded a few times in-game for having posted my link every 3-5 minutes. First time a GGG representative told me I could only post every 3 minutes... then later I almost got chat muted, and I was told to post only every 5 minutes, but other people were able to spam chat about racist crap and other ridiculous things... yea, I am glad I waited things out. God forbid people try to do positive things for once... I am so disgusted with things atm.
