here is where the ddos right now is so stupid. If they had half a brain they would ddos on the 7th. You know how many poe kids would rage if they couldnt play day 1?

/e I voted : Neither ( I Do Sleep)


i would rage pretty hard

this, pretty much 100% chance that 'someone' will attack their servers.

I feel like incusrion and delve were fairly stable starts this time around. Certainly they had a ton of server load issues every new league before them and it would pretty much take 24+ hours to have be able to reliably play.
I rarely am around for the exact start of the leagues and it was nice because I knew people wouldn't really be that far ahead of me with them disconnecting constantly and sitting in ques. :)

What is a smartphone. Never heard of it :wacko:
But seriously i agree with the "boe hoe" crowd when did blizzard release some amazing new content where you dont have to pay for.
And then after several years they come with a mobil game. :evil: seriously ……

Grinding Gear on the other hand release every 3 months new content. And you can like the new content or not. But the fact stays: They are bringing it!

Oke the start is not always smooth. But then there is a hord, a stampede waiting for the server ports to play the games new content :drool: ,
No server can handle that. Consider it as a "black Friday". You can see how some shops handle that. Not!

So GGG does in my opinion an outstanding job

I totally agree with you. I was just quoting the latest Blizzard's Masterpiece @blizzcon 2018. And keep in mind that i was a fucking addicted d3 player. I reached max level with my monk, much before Blizzard introduced the "paragon" bullshit. I dont know if somebody here even remember what that means.
I made so many Alkaizer runs i almost lost my mind. And it was good for me, because I made plenty of level services in my Diablo 2 experience and playing endless exp and mf runs was exactly the idea I had of Diablo.

I loved D3 and I saw Blizzard destroying it, patch by patch. Omfg, i was so proud of my D3 experience, I had #1 Europe Giyua Helm for my Firebats build (still have it on a mule) and I remember how many hours i spent in the fucking bounties, untill I found a DAMN GODLIKE Grandeur Ring, was broken as fuck, a trifactor 6% crit chance, 49% crit damage and max attack speed (if somebody still remember what it means). Trophy link: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=70657389&f=69&o=0

And then it happend. Mama Blizzard started to listen to the moans of random players. Blizzard didnt understand that games like Diablo 3 and PoE are made for damn addicted players and not for people who play 2-3 hours per week.

They almost removed the dmg reflect. They nerfed to the underground the arcane sentry damage. They killed totally any challenge you could find in the game. They removed even the need to play in party. Do you remember how many topics you could find here on jsp, "Looking for Perma Frozen Sorc for Uber T10". You needed to be in party to complete the endgame content, now everything is easy shit.

They removed trades between players. People cried for that. And how did Blizzard resolve the problem? Instead if simply "admit" the mistake and reintroduce the trades, they hid the mistake making the trade useless increased by 999999% the chance to find the items you need, with a totally senseless "smart loot", they introduced the bitch KADALA, who can provide you a full builded character able to run the end game content in a very short time.
We removed the trades and you dont agree? dont worry, you have your full builded character in 5 minutes. You dont need to trade, click here and get the items you need. Just bet with Kadala, there's a smart loot system waiting for you. Kadala is the "Hero Editor" program for single player Diablo2.

So I followed my friends and I installed PoE, with ZERO clues of it. Zero. I still remember when i was in act 1 and my friend on teamspeak said "ok Medio, now press P and scroll down with your mouse wheel". The 2 seconds i took to reach the maximum "zoom out" were enougth to forget Diablo 3. "This is what i'm looking for", fuck Diablo3.

Last year i got my 40/40 challenges on PoE quickly, so I gave an other chance to Diablo 3. I reinstalled it. I reached the endgame in 3 days with an Archont build. I uninstalled it.

If Blizzard will ever make this Diablo4, I'm out. No more money for those losers.
