To all those who claim bnet P8 would be broken free items.
If the argument against P8 bnet is mainly the drops not the social aspect (which is just heresey because playing P8 with 2-3 friends is much more fun then P2-3 with 2-3 friends)
But the point is- is P8 on offline broken? Your arguements fall flat if it isnt. Those that play singleplayer. Do you feel as though the lvl 99 grind is pointless, too easy, you have all the GG drops in the world and just want to quit the game bc of all your drip?
I seriously doubt any offline single players only would say that the game loses all meaning or even that they are rich beyond all means and P8 should be removed from singleplayer/offline?
This is the angle thats needed to sence dissenters- they are all 100% trolls profiting from multiboxing/botting. This is the smoking gun needed.
Singleplayer/offline players speak please. We are listening
Even if we assume p8 is broken, which I don’t feel it is personally, you can’t trade items so drops/runewords and well rolled versions of all those things are extremely rare. So even if we work under the premise that players8 breaks loot balancing it doesn’t matter because the lower global drop totals and inability to trade still make the entire loot gathering process on SP very long
I used to think we should do p8 online. But what i’d instead like to see is a flattening, such that it only takes 4 players to get the “p8” effect in terms of loot, and make the even levels do something.
As it stands now, i have a friend that i’d play this with like crazy, but we only ever play together in the beginning (outside of trading/sharing items) to level up, because the game disincentivizes us to play together. It is actually MORE efficient, for the 2 of us to make 2 separate games, and run 2 separate chaos runs, for example, then to be in the same game running chaos.
Troll rule #1- sidestep the question irrelevant banter.
YO- P8 BOTS / MULTBOXERS ARE ON BNET AND EFFECT ENERYONE AND THE ENTIRE BNET ECONOMY.
Everytime some dude buys runes and trades them where do those runes go? Hmm i dont know INTO THE ECONOMY.
The question here is “IS P8 OP FOR OFFLINE” if it isnt then it cant be innately OP in bnet.
But the question was directed at singleplayers who- if they feel they get too geared too fast or level too fast- is it btoken for them alone or not?
Answer is no. Im waiting to hear from ONE solo singleplayer that says otherwise. Not one responder to this post can confirm this. They all spout air and diffusion tactics to try and hold onto their multi boxing edge. Trolls allmof them
Isn’t your post an attempt to make a point about online play by comparing it to offline play?
Not that I care about P8 online at all nor the fact that bots will abuse it. I don’t care, but you’re trying to make a comparison between two different scenarios to bring a perk online because if they say it isn’t an advantage offline, then why can’t we have it online. It is just a disingenuous way of going about making your point.
Regardless the devs said they would never have P8 online because they think not having it forces us to play with each other more and invite more friends, so they sell more copies.
And the entire bot argument should be null and void. If P8 online was a good thing and even if bots could abuse it, then it should be online. Bots should not dictate features of the game. Blizz should handle the bots, not let botters handle them.
Offline does not matter to anyone buy the single player on that PC…which is why you can use hacks, cheats, mods, anything you want to alter the single player experience. You can even download mods to change the difficulty, drop rates, or give yourself god mode.
Its not broken but its certainly powerfull boost to xp gain. I play offline often with /players x setting and you can level up much easily and you get a lot more items.
This is the person that can put it simply- we need P8 in online. Imagine leaving singleplayer with P8 because you cannot get what you need. Exact opposite to what the multiboxers who own the online economy would have us think.
Its mostly a tragedy to experimence weaker enemies when you jump from singleplayer P8 to up and down cruddly inconsistent P1-3 rando bnet limp worm games. Good trading with an inflated economy due to P8 botters though!
Its plain as day. We need to keep this at the tip of our minds
Well, removing players 8 from offline will make it unnecessary more difficult for single player.
Adding players 8 to online only just makes things easier while adding another nail to the coffin to encourage people to team up and clear content.
I mentioned that I played single player for 2 years before converting online. I’ve only done like a total of 150 hours of farming online since March and have more items online than I have in single player.
Instead, the game needs to better encourage team play by ensuring loot for all players. It’s the lack of loot compared to soloing that is causing players to not play together.
Most of my “wealth” accumulation online from trading away from farming as well as quicker access to gear that allows me to farm more efficiently.
For single player, I farmed NM Andy for SoJ’s to get a few Anni’s, respected my full dex bowazon to do ubers for some torches, etc. Then have chars to farm Travincal, farm cows, farm L85 areas and farm LK. Online allows you to specialise and play to your strengths.
