took a break for 2 days becuase i coulnt find a single person to help me kill diablo in norm on my sin ( i dont want a rush i just wanted to play with people)
came back today… made a game killed “kill diablo” clear the entirely of choas except for infector of souls and his pack… no one joined… left and rejoined hopefuffy that put it on the game list?
nope… 20 more min killing randon stuff… im done with d2 today
you wonder why no one is playing??? its because if i wanted to play single player i would play my single player characters.
its just a shame there isnt a single person in north America at the same point in the game that i am
well according to you hot mess of a game list that is… seeing as you wont list my game or show me act 4 games
30 minutes i waited… for a person.
fix your game list or just take down the damn servers
Are you playing hardcore ? if so it would be fun to play with you i don’t mind starting a new char just killing stuff walking around no tele just fun !
LoD had social features??? I don’t recall that when I played back in 2002 when 1.09 came out. My social features were walkin’ down to my roomate’s dorm and saying you want to run some baal?
As for needing help with infector on normal… yeah he’s a butt and you don’t have many options as a 27ish assassin… especially if you’ve done the ‘meta’ thing and gone fire traps.
Chaos certainly kicked my butt a few times when I was soloing with my Sin… so you’re not alone in that regard.
Uh yeah /f m and /w worked way better in LoD. The channels were also way better for finding baal runs etc. Played in ~2005 though haha. Not a fan of how they screwed with private channels in the remaster.
the reason why people who farm like that are frowned upon is because one…you ruin any chances of that group continuing in that game causing them to create a new game when they to the point where said farmer farmed…2nd it creates it more difficult to kill…ive seen multiple games named split mf-xxx,u mf i chaos-xxx…so instead of invading other people made games so you can achieve your /players 3,5,7 loot go make/join split mf games
How does setting game difficulty to /p8 prevent you from playing with others? Are you suggesting such a command would prevent others from joining the game?
As for your inability to find anyone, are you playing classic? Non-ladder maybe? HC ladder seem to have at least some activity in all acts in all difficulties for now at least…
unfortunately they didnt implement the IP problem fix and the chat commands are gone basically, not like in LOD anyways.Unfortunately for all of us that wanted to let this game get big each day they dont fix the ip issues the more players they lose.New players to this game that cant find games to play in are going to leave.Its already happened,the lists are much shorter and games that even show up have been open for hours.Ive joined games where it said 6 people were in it and the game was dead.I really hate to say this but I know its the truth cause I love D2, when d4 drops we will have a diablo game full of players again even if the game doesnt live up to the d2 name.I played d3 when it launched and even though I didnt like the game nearly as much as d2 I could always find people to play with
Player command on bnet would most likely have a beneficial effect on party play
People wouldn’t be forced to play with eachother, therefor people that do actually wanting to, which mostly likely would end up being more pleasant adventures
Ie: your game consist in completing act 2 hell and forward and a dude joins to kill mephisto
With p8 that dude would just do it alone, not engaging in a toxic behaviour induced by lack of game mechanic
People would then be more prone to create games and join games if they know the probability of having an a-hole ruining being greatly reduced
My friend most players are using 3rd party communities such as discord or jsp to host and join private runs. These runs are superior to pub games. They run longer, no harassment via hostyle or abuse, and positive coop play. I like many dont waste my time with pub games.
The current lobby system for me is also not working to get some trading done. To me that is also a big part of this game. Finding items and knowing other people are interested in them. I already was at point that I hardly pick up stuff anymore.
Today I will make a trading account on traderie and hope that sort of works. For now, I just solo level up till 93 and be done with ladder, I think.
The build I am playing is great a new fury/fire build not possible before 2.4. However the whole ladder experience so far feels like almost 100% solo self-found… but then online
i don’t mind starting a new char just killing stuff walking around no tele just fun !
