Yes, we can guess the season end date but an official communication just like how its done in the past would be appreciated. So, we can prepare in advance. Esp for those yet to finish their season journeys. Its a basic expectation.
Considering theyāre not telling us a lot of other things, donāt hold your breath.
Notifications and communication are encouraged and appreciated and good etiquette but those are not on the current business path.
Honest question⦠why is it important to know the end date of this season? Are you someone who just started playing and are wondering if thereās enough time to complete the season journey for the rewards? Other than that I canāt think of why it would be important to know an exact date. Itāll end when it ends. Itās not like thereās some cash prize at stake. Nobody is going to be famous for grinding out an extra 100 paragon in Season 30. Start thinking about what youāre going to do in Season 31.
For me personally, the end date will help me know when to practice for next season start.
Thatās not your thing, fine. I enjoy the season start, and the lead up to it.
Thereās no altar is non season, but there is one in the season. You can simulate the altar on non-season, but itās not really the same thing. Double massacre bonuses + double massacre XP altar how you approach leveling. Itās also why you canāt really do level practicing with the PTRs.
And just for getting muscle memory back up, you want to practice as close to the new season as possible.
But outside of that, just for the general audience, itās just a sign of general communication between the devs and the community. It might not be technically important to your character or account, but itās just a sign of good faith when the devs keep communication channels open.
Its basic courtesy and i can fix a time in my busy schedule to trash the less useful stuff i am not carrying over to non season. Its hard to find time.
Sorry⦠that just made me chuckleā¦
You have the time to play a massive time sink of a game for months and now, after 11 weeks itās suddenly āI have no time, Iām too busyā
Again, why wait? Pack up your stuff you want to transfer and call it done. There are no prizes for playing to the last minute. The season is over, accept that reality and move on.
New changes to class balance, hence usually i postpone the sorting and trashing till new patch info is releaed. Foe example, i may have a very good ancient ulianna glove. If ulinna class is going to get a great mechanics change next season, i may keep it for non season play. But whether i should trash depend on the upcoming class balances.
You do realize you have 30 days after starting a season to deal with your carry over stash items mailed to you. Thatās plenty of time after the season starts to deal with it. I easily manage to take care of it after about a week after the new season starts and I do it on all three regions (NA, EU, and Asia). Itās not that hard⦠less than half an hour per region.
How long does it take to make a forums announcement, or hell, even a tweet, with āS30 ends on XX/XX/XXXX at XX:XX based on time zone Xā?
Probably less time than it takes for you to defend them on their obstinate refusal to engage in common courtesyā¦
I for one would find it interesting to know the end date.
I play the entire season and have never gotten more than half way through all the tiers.
At the moment, I still sit at 9/10 for the tier after getting the suit for the necroā¦
No biggie, but to know when the end of season date is, would be a nice to know thing.
Some people do enjoy pushing the LBās. This usually means burning several hundred or thousand keys. Knowing when the end is, gives them a time frame for when to start pushing.
Some people have jobs and real life commitments. Knowing the end date gives them a reference if they will have time to finish what they want to get completed for the season.
I want to actually play the season when it starts, not sort out last seasonās goodies.
They should just add a season end date in the character selection screen like they do in D4, how hard can that be.
Based on previous experience, Season 30 will end on 7th of April at 5PM (CET/PDT) - ± 1 hour coz of daylight savings.
If they will need a patch for S31 (in case it isnāt just a server side switch), it will drop Tuesday evening/early Wednesday (for EU).
Good luck finishing all your season goals.
Imagine any professional league in sports not having a āseason end dateā⦠it just ends when the higher ups says itās time.
Didnāt we get about two days notice before last season end?
Wellā¦
The only other Sunday available for the season to end is today, i.e. 31st March. So, on the assumption that the season doesnāt end today, itāll end next Sunday.
They could anounce it with anouncing next season.
Iād like to know because I prefer to clean up stuff in season itself rather then when mailed.
If the season was to end today, it should have ended on Asia region 2 h 40 min ago - but it did not. However, I remember Season 27 ending over 3 hours after expected time (both on Asia and EU), so⦠¯\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
They donāt bother communicating with players, because we donāt matter. At all. Especially D3 players
The gacha game version of Mortal Kombat on mobile has timers ticking down to show how long before a tower has before it ends⦠best implementation IMHO as it eliminates any errors with timezone conversions.
And itās not the first game to do this.
So we should expect season end in less than 12hrs I guess
I havenāt cleaned my stash either. I guess I have the time for stash tetris considering Iām skipping S31.
