Path of Exile is a F2P game and has a great online experience!

amd forever, but those days only with riva tnt / voodoo ;]

if that eliminates the issue going on then I’m fine with it, at least till they can figure out what in the hell is going on…

tbh I’m pretty sure they know what’s going on but they don’t know how to combat it which is why they are silent and not letting us know

You could’ve hit the nail on the head. Where making too many games within a given time would be the problem.

Yep. They waited 15 years, give or take, to try after the fiasco of CompuServe debuting Islands of Kesmai, in 1984. Or, you know, those very ancient PLATO dungeon crawlers from 1978 (or arguably 1972) but those were not commercial products.

It’s already at a minute. You’re probably right. I hope Blizzard sells off the Diablo license.

They won’t try if a lazy fix like time limiting game creation works.

At some point your shared stashes becomes your mules, see PoE for reference. On PoE I have 0 mules, why? because I have over 50 shared stashes.

50 stashes is just silly. I tried PoE imo that game is a confusing pile of trash.

Because it’s easier/faster to just hit the play button, it also shouldn’t matter.

Really doubt that’s because of server load. Servers have crashed at both peak and off peak hours. And have worked at both peak and off peak hours.

No, don’t add in that condition. Because Blizzard will be Blizzard and implement it “temporarily” and it’ll just become an unintended feature that never goes away lol.

Also, if they don’t want to add too many shared stashes for some reason, add item stacks to 99/999 or whatever at least for runes/gems/potions/keys/tokens. Anything that would reduce people the need to use mules to create games. But anyway, they should have done it before release. It’s too late now.

Or an option to create a throwaway game that closes as soon as you leave it, reducing server load and allowing you to move onto the next quickly. Could be labeled quick game or something with a check mark toggle below the game creation options.

Rate limiting…

Called it!

Good? I mean. Stop milking 1 spawn all day. Do a rotation.
