I was excited until that, then my interest evaporated.

I had every item for my build within 24 hours of the new season, and the only thing left then was to grind paragon levels and ancient versions of the same items. Left me feeling like, why bother? With every patch, D3 improves mechanically and becomes increasingly shallow and easy. I was doing...

So, a couple of months later and the server still has no players. Currently there's 1 player online. I asked a guy who tried the server. Sometimes it soars as high as 10 for a bit, but generally there's 0-4 peeps on. Also, they implemented non-classic features like special mitigation for...

Yeah, what's the deal with that? They promised a big reveal and then the subreddit went private just before it was supposed to be posted.

The server offers precisely the same content and features as P99. Instead of offering something slightly different, for which there's a demand, the guy decides to offer exactly the same thing, for which there's obviously no demand. He's allowed to run whatever server he wants, but what he's done...

Killing the deck is better than doing nothing, but one really has to wonder why they chose that particular change. Somewhere, a professional game developer in charge of one of the most popular and profitable games in the world sat down and decided that this was what should happen to the card.

US peak hours. Literally zero players online. But at least nobody's boxing. That would ruin the server.

Obviously about 10 people want that. Great success.

I'm disappointed that people waste their time developing pointless garbage when they could be enriching the emulator community with useful, original material. I don't even know the guy's username, I don't give the remotest fuck about him on a personal level. However, his efforts are useless and...

P99 wasn't built up slowly. It had 100+ players from the start, and within two months it was in the several hundreds. This server started in June and only ever has a handful of players online. Like right now, during EU peak, it has three players and a GM on. I glance at their website with the...

It's a common sentiment from players who aren't hardcore or much good at the game but still think they should be at the top. They don't want to play on P99 because you'll never be anything there without being at least a little hardcore, and they don't have the nous to actually multibox properly...

It's completely hopeless. The owner isn't receptive to any arguments, it's out of the question. I explained to him in detail that his server will never be anything at all unless he enables boxing and he just kept banging on about how it's only a matter of time and bla bla. Months after launching...

People really want a Titanium server because it's the only thing that's genuinely good. The Mac servers have all kinds of problems when played from a PC. Also, on TAKP I was looting fine steel weapons off level 10 mobs, I wonder if that sort of inaccuracy persists throughout. Aggro barely...

With 3-boxing, I bet you'd have players in the triple digits after a month. That's assuming your server is of decent quality, not like the abomination that was The Sleeper. Even that server, with its unspeakably low quality and certifiably insane owner, attracted over a hundred players (not a...

Yeah, nobody is honestly going to be able to get a foothold doing the exact same thing as P99. Who's gonna come to a no-boxing server with a tiny population? Allow boxing and I'd play it in a heartbeat, it's the very thing I'm looking for. Without boxing, not only is it virtually unplayable...

Considering the fact that the server is currently pre-Kunark and appears to release new content at a rate that would have PoP several years away, I see no reason not to invest the little time it takes to toggle focus effects off and remove craftables from several expansions down the line. Having...

Why on Earth would they not choose to disable stuff like focus effects, PoP-era cultural gear, etc. when they're still in pre-Kunark content?

What's the technical reason that the PC client can't be used? I just couldn't deal with shit like having to manually stand up before every action.

Is this still only playable on PC with that really buggy hackjob patch where a bunch of shit doesn't work?

I really hate the paladin secrets. It pisses me off that there's now a top tier deck using them. They're really shit design compared to the hunter and mage secrets, both of which can be played around much better and can be turned to your advantage. Like you can bounce your Healbot, or give your...

This is so shitty.

You either didn't read my post or failed to comprehend plain English. You're basically saying I'm full of shit and then in the next breath agreeing with what I wrote.

Depends if you're talking arena or constructed. Arena you can technically play forever for free, although it's generally unlikely that a new player has the skill and experience to do 'infinite arena,' i.e. win enough games in each arena run to make back the money it costs to enter. You need to...

It's cheaper to design zones without flying grids, 3D zone borders and the roughly 30% more content you have to put into a zone with flying as opposed to non-flying zones where anything inaccessible (think about all the mountains and shit in every zone) can be left a crude cardboard facade...

Tavern Brawl sounds like a mildly interesting minigame that won't have the slightest influence on competitive play, i.e. Tavern Brawl results won't be taken seriously or matter in any way. New rules every week means a total lack of any metagame, poor balance, and just general randomness. It...

Anyone on EU? I have the pack daily and none of my friends play this game. Larsen#2974

In a recent poll, four out of six professional players ranked patron warrior as the best deck, and the remaining two players ranked it like 2nd/3rd best. They all had paladin at the very bottom. It's completely absent from tournaments as well, and has no good deck at the moment. An absurd...

The paladin class is fucked right now. It already had only one viable deck, and it wasn't exactly dominating the meta. Now that patron warrior is the best deck in the game, 1/1 minions are literally worse than nothing. You will lose if you have 1/1 minions in play. This essentially invalidates...

I think these PvE adventures are some of the most unenjoyable gameplay I have experienced in my entire life. I despise every single second of it, yet you absolutely have to do it. So unbelievably tedious and irritating.

Quick Shot is an obvious example of Blizzard sacrificing the quality of the game (i.e. balance) to squeeze a little more money out of people. This card wasn't designed because hunter needed it. It was designed because everybody and their fucking dog plays face hunter, including every casual...

They're also fixing major problems as soon as they occur and patching bugs every week. While not perfect, Nostalrius is the best vanilla server that has ever been made, which is why there's such an absurd amount of people playing on it. The bugs and scripting issues aren't that bad, none of it...

What kind of xenophobic bullshit is that? Your biggest problem with the server is that there are Europeans and language-based communities? Are jews also causing the server crashes? What a disgusting mindset, holy shit. It's a globally available server hosted in Europe, there'll be people who...

FTFY

Yeah, the people who got even a slight head start have benefitted so extremely from it. I missed the first day and have been stuck in the main wave of people. If I'd played on day 1 and got to level 10 before it got really bad, I'd probably be level 50+ by now. Instead I'm 31, and leveling takes...

I occasionally glance at their forum just to chuckle at the memories of the big 2013 Kegz meltdown. Clearly the server is 100% dead, I'd be surprised if it has more than like ten players. He's the most incompetent, worthless GM ever and his project will go down in history as an example of what...

It's a little too convoluted. What's necessary is basically the same thing they did to warlock in order to compensate for a strong hero power: weaker class cards. Instead, hunter has insanely strong class cards.

Funny that hunter has turned out to be the no-skill faceroll class in both WoW and HS.

That hero power just puts out too much pressure for a non-card source, allowing the hunter to simply play a single 2 or 3-drop per turn and put out as much pressure as decks that play two such cards per turn. The ability to deal 2 per turn no matter what means even your bad draws perform...

Is this the same near-unplayable hackjob PC client as the original EQMac server?

Nerfed cards can be disenchanted for the full value, i.e. 1600 for legendaries.
