Except Mosaic, which breaks the game if you have 2 or 3 in your game FUN
Well JSP is still there and an auto bot magnet, so there is that. Iirc in the old days we never had raining Annis, like confetti on carnival, like we had since launch of D2R.
Well they made hell a lot easier esp. HC with the charms, pretty unchallenging.
Moasiac was added last ladder, not the upcoming one.
Really? What happened to d3 with it’s 29 seasons of new add on content and new set item EVERY SEASON for the past 13 years?
I know and it’s still there and will not be removed.
I know one change I would like to see:
A list of character types [Paladin, Assassin, Soceress, etc] with check boxes next to them. Once the box is checked, that type of character is allowed to join your public game.
That way, if you or I didn’t want to deal with a D4 runeword covering the screen like mosaic, we could uncheck the assassin box and no character with mosaic could join your game. Either that or remove mosaic.
Good idea, or just give us Path of Diablo and Project D2 in D2R graphs with 2 guys who love the game and actually play it themselves AND update it constantly.
Yea sure fix stupid stuff by implementing more stupid stuff.
Only thing that would need a fix is the control of bots, that would solve many issues. Remove Mosaic and TZ’s, revert FHC, work on the chat and we got a way better game already.
And let’s be honest they won’t do the effort hire people to prevent bots. Getting rid of JSP and RMT is not really possible but by getting rid of bots would have a big influence of how people get their hands on all the OP items and yet it’s free money for them…
Jester, there are several points you made I agree with … I was also being a bit facetious.
JSP will never go away unless they make their own trade platform. However, having a chat monitor to ban chat spammers and rmt game name makers, would be a great start to disallowing access to the RMT’rs. They do not need to hire anyone … use the interns.
I agree with your points on mosaic, TZ’s, etc. An easy option to help in getting rid of bots is destroying enigma. And, yes, they will still have bots as sorceress, I get that. However, it would be a much smaller pool of cheaters to monitor and make it easier to catch them.
Once caught and banned, blizz should send an email to their isp provider showing that they are violating TOS and stealing by monetizing intellectual property by using their isp. And fearing their own lawsuit, most isp providers would ban that ip themselves.
are you sure, because i still pirate things and get an e-mail saying they know i downloaded copy material but they never do anything about it, i’m sure it would be the same for things less important like video games.
I’m not sure if we would get rid of RMT that way, it would make using a functional chat enjoyable but you just need to type D2R items into google and the first 20 results are RMT sites and not informations about D2 items.
Enigma is OP and marority including me won’t disagree but the real problems are bots here, enigma wasn’t supposed to be 8 times on one account in a season and unless you use RMT or JSP you won’t get your hands on that in a single season even if you play 6 month while just having 5h sleep a day and never clean your apartment and not having a job.
But removing it because it’s so easy to get your hands on that because there is a messed up economy due to bots (JSP, RMT etc.) is the wrong approach imo.
And that is basically what I mean, most demands are problem solvers that create new problems or make it worse and I really don’t like it. All these things even started to influence the people who just do ingame trades. Heck I got a Soso torch for a 45% Wt.
One thing I see a reasonable feature is a SSF ladder, and not for the sake for getting rid of bots, but everything comes with a downside and in this case you split SC and HC into SCSSFL, SCL, HCSSFL and HCL not even mention NL. With so many different opinions we just end up having less and less population on each mode.
The main problem are bots in regarding to many problems.
Yea I think so too it would reduce the abuse of it. But I also think that many people on JSP will still use it due to the possibility of carrying your wealth from one season to another and also rare early founds. I would appriciate a legit ingame trading platform but this wouldn’t be a problemsolver imo.
DLC. It was the newest title of the franchise and therefore was updated. Remember 1.11 1.12 1.13 and 1.14? That’s how blizzard works with p2p titles
ISP’s are not responsible for what their customers do. ISP’s are also not forced to make decisions based off another company’s TOS.
Most bots don’t use enigma, they use a sorc, so the item’s removal would have little affect and most would just switch to a sorc. Why would someone build enigma for a bot, when they could simply sell that jah/ber.
Obviously you do not play much. Hammerdins are still the most prolific bots out there and they use enigma to teleport to areas fast. Javazon bots use enigma, mosaic bots use enigma, otherwise they couldn’t teleport to the areas. Be for real.
And yes, let them switch to a sorc. It’ll be a smaller pool of potential bots for blizz to screen and ban. Makes their job even easier.
As far as isp’s go, they sure would if their customer proven to theft as well as copyright infringement and they are notified of it and now know they are being used for illegal activity, they sure would disconnect them. It has happened many times.
I mean, seriously?
Just because you assume everyone in every single game you’re in is a bot doesn’t make it so. The vast majority of bots are all sorcs becuase teleport is free. There are no mosaic scripts though one could be made, but why would you? Risking an enigma from a ban isn’t smart, just to have overkill on players 1.
But they’re never going to screen anyone. They might adjust ban waves, but that is so rare it simply will have almost no affect.
That doesn’t make them legally responsible for their actions. They certainly could disconnect them, but legally nah.
Good thing you made it obvious at the outset that you are talking directly from your @$$ and are a clueless noob, in case the reader was unfamiliar with your username.
Don’t get sucked into arguing with him tbh, waste of time. Most of the rest here at least have opinions based off facts or stick to their known subjective opinions. This dude just pulls fake info out of his butt.
all they need to do is rework TZs the way that they are challenging and forcing you to play with other people, tune down mosaic ( change “+” elemental dmg to “-” elemental dmg as a starter), add some utility runewords every ladder
this is D2 not PD2, PoD, PoE. This game was in good enough shape for 20 years that we got D2R. We don’t need lazy a$$ patches to make any in-game challenge even easier.
99 used to be an achievement
holy grail used to be an achievement
playing with others was fun
now we have TZs and you have to fight to get some TZ exp or play solo with fillers.
Fixed the “playing with others was fun” for you.
you can always go single player and play there
also remove your opinion from quote please. I strongly disagree with this 
if you don’t want to play with others, play single player
The game before TZ and after TZ always had builds capable of solo taking on P8 content. There wasn’t a challenge forcing you with others even at that point in time.
Don’t think mosaic needs to be tuned because it is OP. Should probably just be deleted because it is an eye sore, and it works outside of the norms of the game. If they want to fix MA sin, then fix MA sin that is cool, even if it is just as viable as it is now, though with tuned down graphics.
99 was never an achievement. It was simply an accumulation of time spent, previously it just took more time.
Holy grail is still an achievement. Just because TZ’s provide better chances doesn’t mean that a holy grail is suddenly easy.
Playing with others is still fun. Sorry, but your old baal run wasn’t that fun either tbh.
As for TZ’s and focusing experience and racing, do as you please. I’m not so sure why so many are infatuated with lvl 99, it isn’t impressive but to each their own. But during ladder if you’re not first you’re last period. And simply existing as a level 99 character offers very minimal differences when compared to 92.
Yeah you really don’t get how things actually work lmfao. JSP and discords have made much larger groups of people with similar interests. You’re sitting on the outside judging cuz you can’t get a p8 game to save your life, and jealous they’re so far ahead of you when they’re simply playing better. And bots aren’t the ones randomly joining games lol, it is normal players trying to mimic P8 is all.
