Are implants being talked about again or actually coming soon? I thought they went back to the drawing board with those and then quietly discarded the idea.

I'm trying for a good mirrorball and had 4-6 Triumvirates, we should arrange a trade! ... oh wait Regarding targeted farming, a very limited amount of that sounds ok for me, but any implementation the forums ask for ends in targeting every legendary in the game at your whim and getting it...

I really hope Blizz doesnt cave to the group of people that wants to target their specific BiS items asap and "be done". That's MMO thinking based on the expectation that there will be a content update with a new tier of +gooder like WoW taught them. It's entirely ok to 'be done' with an arpg...

That is actually what is happening. You are just forgetting that not everyone puts in their three months at the same time so obviously the servers arent shut down just because *you* are through with the content. You can see how every game out there moves away from servers that are based on...

Tbh I would be fine with getting a *good* Blackthorne piece once in a while, the set bonus is decent. Unfortunately the RNG only delivered bad ones so far.

I thought FF14 2.0 from last summer was 'ok'? I'm sure everyone talking about FF14 at this time talks about that incarnation of the game. That's what they said in the TOR meetings before release, see how that went down in the real world. I'd be surprised if people arent asking for more content...

I'm at 4 piece Firebird (that I'm not using except for the shoulder since it rolled well) and zero Tal Rasha for my wizard. It's all RNG, the question is do you have fun killing shit? playing just for upgrades for a "main" is as lost cause past two weeks or so, you either just enjoy mindless...

From all these comments it seems the main issue was with zone tunnels in newbie areas and presents a problem that would've been easily solved even in 1999 - place one (1) firepot or torch in the corner. I'm hoping anyone that gets paid to design games realizes that little detail and we get...

I can only speak for myself here but I'm bitter about the the '2-months wonders' because the industry has adjusted to it and usually puts their MMO into low-cost maintenance mode after the first quarter - financially sound decision I guess but it sucks for me because I'm looking for a long-term...

What I actually wonder regarding future updates is how Blizzard plans to do the season legendaries. Theorycrafted that a bit with friends while doing rifts and we came to the conclusion that the best way would be craft recipes that are on their own loot table during the season. You dont have to...

I'd love me some support on the level of PoE, but this isnt an MMO with a sub or living off a gem store kinda deal. I dont think Blizzard is going to put out enough updates to keep someone interested that just plays this because it's Blizzard. It is a decent Diablo game (now, imo) and I wouldnt...

Same as death penalty in other MMO games, the more organized/connected/high-level you are, the less it matters.

Pretty much, yea. They need to take Butler off EQN and get him into this asap to open the project up to a larger potential player demographic. Someone get on the batphone with Smed to make it so. No, really.. take Butler off EQN, pleeeaase...

Yes. Not sure on that actually since they're all on my friend list anyway and I can do it based on that. If you can quick-join clan member games but not community games that might be a difference.

Is there any real advantage to using a clan instead of a community? Seems like half the posts here are about the problem with the member cap, and afaik communities have no or at least a much higher cap. Only issue with communities I am aware of is that you cannot autojoin the chat. I'm mostly...

The boots that allow you to walk through mobs are something you can get used to, if you dont need a set item on that slot (until you get ice climbers, I guess).

I assumed that was just the underlying static water being revealed as the dirt is mined away, not that actual water flowed into an opening (which is for later when they make voxel water).

You have a persistant character, but you dont actually have a complete persistant world from my understanding. You travel on an overland map to certain locations that then feature a playable area (kinda like BG or Dragon Age Origins). Although housing appears to be limited by available space, if...

There are many suggestions to "fix" 2handers that skirt the issue of sockets on weapons still being too strong. If they give 2handers a second socket they most likely force anyone that's not dual wielding into 2handers. They should just nerf gem effects on weapons or make weapons not have any...

Looked at it years ago, expected them to get a cease&desist from CCP and shut down. I am surprised they are still up. Not interested because of that.

Yea I wish this had a Fallout theme instead of zombies. Otherwise sounds good, has many EVE-ish elements apparently. I'll probably pony up the early access fee.

Changing gems in weapons would be one of the most important things imo. The crit damage gem invalidates many interesting 1handers and all 2handers because it's way too strong compared the rest of your entire gear. Even worse for classes that can DW. A diluted pool is fine, you need lots of...

Mana screw is a weak spot in MTG that newer games avoided (WoW tcg did it well), but you dont need to add random land draws to deepen the resource mechanics. I think a 'colorless only' 0-10 scale is too shallow. It'll be difficult to differentiate cards through cost alone fairly quick. They...

Pretty much my thinking - I'm looking forward to this but right now there is simply nothing to discuss except things that are more appropriate for the Landmark thread. I hope we'll get solid info in Q3/4 but wouldnt expect anything before that.

That, and killing tons of demons for random loot IS the game. Too many people are going at it with MMO expectations. Same as those asking for a menu of fixed items from Kadala, I'm glad Blizzard doesnt go in that direction.

Do you mean that you would petition for some rift fragments and a few mill xp if you could, or am I missing something?

Not a bad suggestion really, a weapon without a socket really is hamstrung right now. Or change the weapon gem effects to something less gamechanging (maybe even simply give them the regular +mainstat bonus, quick and dirty fix). I dont even think you need to rebalance any content with that...

No trading is unfortunate but I think this is better then D2jsp or the AH. The lesser of two evils I suppose. I play with buddies and while we cannot trade stuff we find while alone, at least during the multiplayer time the option is there. I'm hoping they consider trading within clans...

Reading everything you describe makes me wonder how you can start that post with "it's an MMO a la UO" ... anything past the first dozen or so words sounds nothing like UO =x And dont take that as hating on the game - a few posts earlier someone (maybe even you) quoted a post from their...

I usually kill large groups and elite packs and dont bother with the odd single mob or those with tons of hitpoints - it's definitely slower that way but more enjoyable. I would probably quit otherwise because just rushing the bounty while bending over to squeeze another second off the run...

Have they mentioned whether the patch includes the fix for the Malthael craft mats? Would really like to try out that bracer.

Treesong that's roughly what I took from their initial descriptions in the past, and it's a matter of opinion where you draw the line of what is an MMO(RPG). The bolded part is important to me personally and SC and SotA are both taking a big step away from that. The way EVE does it is exactly...

The two reasons I'm not all over this are that I'm no fan of Richard Garriott and I'm hesitant to see this in the same light I see Star Citizen because he might just use this to fund a space trip, and the fact that nothing indicates that this is a full-blown MMO with a persistant world. Now the...

Someone mentioned it a while ago: They should simply introduce offhand items that go along with 2handers in a similar way to how quivers work with the ranged weapons, instead of fucking with the actual 2handed item values. It avoids the crusader issue and allows them to balance those offhands vs...

I dont want to get into the meta debate except to say that everyone playing around and even building around popular decks usually diminishes them enough eventually, especially with new cards thrown into the mix every 4ish months (hoho, like Blizzard could ever manage that). However, the...

I was really hoping the changes to loot would mean people stop trying to find loopholes and focus on playing the game for loot. Stuff like that just gets loot drops from chests and breakables nerfed just like it did at release. Yay for the 1% pushing blizzard into negative changes, I guess...

I like rifts for the random monster mix and environments alone. While Bounties guide you all over the existing campaign map, most of that has fixed map layouts and monster combinations that became bland back in summer '12. I'm not sure what's better lootwise but I find rifts more interesting...

Blizzard only provided the IP and maybe some art (although I see tons of TCG art in newer Blizzard products so its probably even the other way). The TCG was made by UDE and then Cryptozoic, who are now making the HEX digitial card game. I wouldnt expect any release schedule that's acceptable for...

Confirming legendaries from Horadric chaches, I had that shadow clone thingie pop out of one. Is there any write up on when smart loot kicks in and when not? You make it sound like it's impossible to loot stuff for other classes - I was under the impression loot is still random and you can in...

That chat needs a friggin autojoin toggle. Wouldnt it be better to just use a community, chat issue not withstanding?
