From time to time, when i read few things full of nosense i tell myself to pass on it. Just to keep my inner peace. Because some people are fool enough to lead you to the path of insanity even if the beginning of the conversation wasn’t the path they are arguing about.
And then there is you with this priceless description of profil
“Well, I like games. Since I was a little brat. And in some cases I liked it way too much. Therefore I wasted my life on way too many games at times as well.
Which again means no Girl. No Life. No Kids.
And now I test out a promising game called Last Epoch. And I am one Founder. And want more Packs.”
Honestly, I bow out, you won. I won’t argue anymore, you’re full of nosense, not only in this thread but on everything.
You know nothing about me and I find your attitude entirely insulting and degrading to members of this forum. You have made gross generalisations and you have done nothing constructive here but moan about things that we are all already aware of and while we may feel impatient and disillusioned by the same things, we are positive and respectful.
Making assumptions about my personal life and insinuating that I have had a lack of father figure is about as gross and inappropriate as you possible can be. You would NEVER say something like that to someone face if you had any civility in your bones.
Please guys calm down, these discussions going into dirty places will not bring the patch any sooner
The fact is, we are two months late for the patch and there’s no official communication about it. Is up to EHG, but we will be all in a range from faithful and optimistic to disappointed and concerned.
I am somewhat in the middle, I can understand there’s some delay, but I cannot understand the lack of communication, so I’m a bit concerned, still somewhat optimistic, this is far from burning all my good will with EHG.
The people on the forums are the most dedicated portion of the player-base who will hold more polarized positions.
But, if I were to guess, I would say that the majority that is just apathetic about this / lost interest.
I myself would have enjoyed better communication from EHG but the reality is that probably there is not much to communicate.
The problem is that saying “we made a patch that prevents 4 out of the 7 currently known forms of item duplication in our networking protocol” does not make for good communication.
From the Kickstarter forward, EHG promised an “endlessly developed” ARPG (ala PoE) supported by cosmetis (also ala PoE) - early alpha/beta purchases even came with “currency” IIRC??
No-one needs to buy cosmetics in a single-player game where they can edit their character to give it ANYTHING THEY WANT do they?? That means they’d make NO MONEY AT ALL
Multiplayer - and server-side character storage and protection against duping and other nonsense which goes with it - is ESSENTIAL if EHG are to fullfill their original promise - the thing we all bought into it on the basis of.
This really isn’t that hard to understand - we didn’t buy an offline-only game - that’s not what we were sold and EHG’s business model is dead without it too…
I also need to take up this idea that they are “flooded” with people wanting to get into the multiplayer test - because that’s clearly and easily proven as nonsense.
To properly test multiplayer you need 100s and then 1000s and then 10s of 1000s of players - Steam shows no more than “hundreds” playing LE at most - let alone in the CT specifically - so I’m not seeing that as an issue (and or I don’t see 20 people as testing anything useful)
Even if it was the biggest secret test with secret players playing secretly in their 100s - EHG employ over 50 people (just based on LinkedIn) and I’m wondering what most of them are doing because they can’t all be software developers or testers working on MP - the artists aren’t involved in that - the level designers aren’t - sound and character model and - well - most of them - what are they actually doing?
As I’ve said many times now - I’ve played a fair bit of LE and I like it but it feels more and more abandoned - even if MP turned-up tomorrow there’s so much more to be done - PoE and D3(now 4) have had more updates in the last year than this ‘new’ game and so until I see something to the contrary I’m kinda moving on…
To help out answering OP’s question…Mike said this on todays live stream:
‘’…its not a full dev blog, but […] on tuesday we will be releasing a detailed timeline with specific dates for multiple events leading up to and including multiplayer release with 0.9… ‘’
to get the real responses you have to be a faceless redditor on another forum such as user Welltoothistaken to get a reply from the lead dev, here you dont really get that luxury
It would be really funny if they launch mp broken… even though it was delayed.
I wonder what mental gymnastics will the unpayed janitors of this forum have to perform in order to justify a broken and delayed mp, besides the „small indie team” argument, that they already use ad nauseam.
Yes, you are right. It was a tiny little burst from me that. Maybe unnecessary, but still…
@Wouistitie You are aware of the fact that you do not just say the things to me only, right?! When you say those things, you are actually saying it to each and every one of us all who has passion for this game, and who has actually played and playing this game. The only thing you are doing, is to complain and throw garbage not only at me, but at all of us. Not sure what you are even doing. Why are you here, at all?! Please, just go. In fact I wouldn´t mind you just being banned from both here and other games, because when you are like this in this forum about this game, it is surely not the only game you are referring to. Please, why are you even bothering to be at any Game Forum at all?
Still thinking about it ? 3 days after ? Seriously ? I didn’t even remember of you until your message. Go outside and take a breath you take things too much Seriously bro.
It’s internet over here you will die earlier if you don’t take distance from it
I realise the team is small and that creating a multiplayer is really difficult. It’s just a shame that the game is missing this perfect time to release a miltiplayer mode. Diablo 4 is not here yet(not that I’ll buy it for the money Activision will be asking), PoE is having a horrible season and there is no other competition in site. With an MP this game would soar so high right now.
Personally I completed the story(what was completed at the time) with 2 characters and then put the game away because I mainly play games like this with friends.
I’m realising there is not much sense to my post, apart from wanting to say “too bad” and I hope the game goes viral whenever multiplayer is release because it deserves it for sure.
Sorry, but why are you still here? I genuinely thought you were already banned from this site (for life) which is only appropriate for you to be. Why did you sign up here, like at all?! You don´t play the game. You don´t even have any kind of Title on this forum. You are not being nice, not even trying to. So please, share with us all and tell us all, to why exactly you are here for to do and wish to be doing.
