Desync in PoE vs other games

It's the same, but they changed it so it resyncs more often. So instead of noticing the desync when you are already dead or after X amount of time, you notice the desync when you are dead or after Y (less than X) amount of time or if you are stuck for Z amount of seconds.

Only if you're "stunned" so if you take Unwavering...

You won't get resynced...

LOL

It's like they really don't think stuff through...

i know there are lots of threads with desync problem.. but still they are complaining how hard is it to fix ect... ect.. ect.. ect.. LoL has similar sistem and i don't want to compare games but Riot is praticulary same as GGG.. they both have 1 game that they realy put hard work in it. BUT LoL did not have desync problem from the release while GGG has same problem with desync and still releasing content with that problem.

If they dont know how to fix that desync i would strongly recommand to ask for help from employees of riot or blizzard or any other company for advice, and don't feel ashmed. Blizzard is expert at this that is for sure(even tho i don't like their games)

i have played diablo 3 only beta.. and there was no desync i saw, i didn't even know what desync maent untill i encountered it in PoE.

yep blizzard is an expert in making games with no desyncs but with a lot exploits and cheats...

i remember the AH exploit in d3, where you just had to turn the time on the system clock in windows xD

not really a good example. and you cant compare moba games with arpgs, right...

Desync was better at the end of closed beta than open. I haven't played post release yet because I keep hearing from players that it's just as bad as ever.

I've read the posts. No other game I've played online desyncs as bad as PoE. I don't want excuses. I'd even prefer a permanent delay to my actions rather than this pathetic system at the moment.

Honestly it hasn't gotten worse or better...

It's been the same rampant desync in Lotto Closed Beta, Pay In Closed Beta, Open Beta, and Release...

This is totally not true. The issue has gotten MUCH less severe over the life of the game. I have no idea why you keep saying this. You used to desync no matter what you did, all the time, constantly - as in ALL THE TIME. That is no longer the case, it clearly isn't because if it were NOBODY could reach the top of the ladders on HC even with ALT+F4 and nobody could stream the game, also reviewers wouldn't be giving the game a score in the high 80's. Yes it is still an issue, yes you can continue making a hundred posts a day about it and screaming all you want. But you can't say it hasn't gotten better, that is objectively and subjectively not the case.

If you *are* experiencing issues like what I described, it is *your* end not GGG's fault. You can easily deduce this from the facts I laid out previously - specifically the fact that tons of people stream/watch streams - if it were the case that desync was as bad as it was in CB, nobody would play this game, because it would be unplayable.

Maybe my experience with CB goes back farther than yours, not sure.

'WE DON'T WANT TO CHANGE THIS, IT RUINS THE HARDCORE EXPERIENCE GUIZZZ!!' I guess dying to issues completely out of the players hands is acceptable though right :)

It has to do with the way PoE is coded. It isn't an issue with servers or something else, go back to page 1 and read Chris's response on the subject.

Real hardcore too...

Especially when you can just Alt-F4 and not die...

Or when aren't fast enough to Alt-F4, you don't even lose your character...

Plenty of ARPG's have/had "Hit/Miss/Dodge" mechanics... And of all those, not one of them desyncs anywhere near what PoE does.

Also in those game's "hardcore" when you die, you actually "die"...

And are they free to pay ? From a indie company with limited funds and manpower? ( at least initially)

One thing confuses me.about chris post

League of legends also uses.movement prediction
Also, If you hold the movement button down and drag it around the screen you can also control your champion like an ARPG regardless of ping

Yes, even at 250 ping you dont have to click and wait for the server to respond. Your character moves instantly

There are hundreds of games online that don't suffer "desync" anywhere near as bad this game...

When you mention that to the apologists or GGG...

The only response you'll get are "excuses".

Quit the game then as soon we can get rid if you whiners the better the game will be. And btw scrub before you start to slack off HC players maybe you should play it? But I heard dominion was really hard with desync and all?

Typical "Desync Apologist" reply and criteria...

Gets mad, insults anyone who they perceive is criticizing the game, and has the "supporter" title..

3/3
