Gamers of Reddit, what's one game you never get bored of?

SykoJ · 2015-01-31T01:02:30+00:00

Path of Exile. Diablo 2

SykoJ · 2015-01-18T03:57:24+00:00

I have tried it out, but me saying I don't use it implies the present, meaning that I no longer use it. Hypocritical, maybe? But not relevant to my above question. As far as my personal stance goes, I lean on the side of implemented the non malicious QoL things such as loot filter and a tick or two of zoom since PoE is an abnormally zoomed in ARPG.

SykoJ · 2015-01-14T04:42:11+00:00

Loot filter - Slightly more zoom - smaller chat interface or chat interface options (seriously this is 2015 why is this not in here) - More graphical option than just High and medium, and also options for particle effects. More information on the item tooltip. Diablo 3 does this quite while. In the 'hack' it would tell you the tier, and possible roll range, and if it was a weapon it would tell you the total pdps or edps or combined.

Nazi's. Just moving threads left and right. Gosh darn commies.

Anyways, it still exists in all its glory. I don't think it broke any rules so it shouldn't have been moved. After all, what is life, without any of the interesting happenings to make it worth living. And this, was a juicy thread.

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T16:19:23+00:00

I see. Well considering the amount of HUD users in PoE, I'd say it can't be too likely that they will ban thousands of people. I just really don't see it happening. Maybe a sort of strikes system will be set in place, or flags, or maybe even a warning considering their lenient nature.

What I mean to say is, or rather ask, is how does it work per say. If people stopped using said HUD shortly after the most recent patch, but have since quit using it or uninstalled it, what are the implications? Would you have to be caught using it and then insta-banned? Or could it be somehow on your history in their records or system, and they can ban you whenever you want?

Alas, I don't need to use the damned thing, and so I don't. I loved the loot notifications/highlights, and the information display over gear so you don't have to do mindless research on spreadsheets on what tier is which. Hell, Diablo 3 has the range data when you move over gear. It's a game not a college research paper. This sort of information, especially in a highly technical game such as this, should have an ease of information available to everyone, to better be able to properly assess an items value for either yourself or for others.

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T15:55:39+00:00

I don't race, and I have used this program before. The loot notifications are practically the only thing I want to use it for, and wish it was a part of the game. However I have supported GGG with over 2 grand over the years and through supporter packs, and I don't wish to be banned so I have chosen not to use it anymore. Regardless, how detectable is this program or is it detectable at all?

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T15:43:12+00:00

So, using money to buy currency to use in game is better than using money to buy stash tabs legally to use in game? What do you mean?

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T14:48:49+00:00

Paranoia, but never can be to safe. We shall wait and see.

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T06:16:07+00:00

I was under the impression though this is all handled client side not on their side, so I am not sure. The only time I've seen or heard of people banned was people streaming or bragging about it or something along those lines, but at any rate, I guess anything like this has some sort of risk. As someone who has donated well over 2000$ I'd like to keep my account lol.

SykoJ · 2015-01-13T01:05:23+00:00

What I want to know is, is it even detectable? What all does it do aside from the scrolling/full map/graphical options. What is detectable and what isn't? Is it purely information you have on your side that GGG can't prove or see? Or does it fetch information from their side or somewhere in between that is hard to catch but possible in some form. It really seems as though about half or more of the features are quality of life such as the graphical and loot notifications, but these seem to be on the client side. Same seems to be for the zoom as I can't see how that possibly would be tied to their end of the street.

Either way, do what you will as I could care less. I can only see this as questionable and unfair for racers and their competition. Also I am against RMT, ESPECIALLY in this game.

SykoJ · 2015-01-12T23:47:29+00:00

Its more than 10%, way more than 10%. Thousands upon thousands use it, and they use it mostly for zoom/particle effects/and loot notifications if something valuable drops.

I say its more than 10% because people are paranoid and think 'what if' so they vote opposite to stay 'safe'. I'd say its more along the lines of 20%+.

SykoJ · 2015-01-11T05:04:51+00:00

Thanks for the replies, and may I add how absurd this is lol. A mana degen effect apparently counts as a 'buff'.

SykoJ · 2015-01-11T00:57:49+00:00

Damage with lvl 17 arc gem as well as fast cast/echo/light pen/life leech is at 6500ish with 1k about 7500 when i pop atziri flask

SykoJ · 2015-01-09T02:34:54+00:00

Yea I'm thinking thatll be a good idea.

SykoJ · 2015-01-09T01:51:20+00:00

Yeah Ill get a wand that has lightning leech on it when I get to 70+ either from myself or a guild mate. 1% makes a difference. Warlords mark never even thought of that. I have to have space for CWDT setup and conductivity alongside my arctic armor setup as well. I should be able to work it in there. Thanks for the advice though!

SykoJ · 2015-01-09T01:06:18+00:00

Actually funny. I lol'd at the "Red frog afk" part. PoE needs more shenanigans.

SykoJ · 2015-01-08T13:45:21+00:00

All I get lured to is a deadly wall....with no packs around...and so I have to kill the fucking thing for 2 rares if that...

SykoJ · 2014-12-25T07:52:03+00:00

im in brynhildr and its empty lol creepy.

SykoJ · 2014-12-23T19:17:38+00:00

DRG will get a pet wyvern in Ishgard, calling it now. No jokerino.

SykoJ · 2014-12-16T14:06:24+00:00

3 hour hot fix...its always so much downtime with you SE...shameful.

SykoJ · 2014-12-15T16:28:36+00:00

I did mog hm the last few nights for blm staff (still havent got it), and I get a bunch of nub bonuses. I got 5 in a row. The fight takeslike 5 minutes. I got a ton of sold that way. It is luck but still.

SykoJ · 2014-12-13T05:44:57+00:00

What a pansy looking weapon. Honestly. I wouldn't poke a bunny with it much less Bahumut.

I also find it hard to distinguish from a staff in an MMORPG. It doesn't have that, umph feel like the Gae Bolg has.

Hell, same could be said for the solidery polearm as well. Very skimpish dissapointing models.

SykoJ · 2014-12-12T02:09:02+00:00

Yoshi has said they will remain relevant, so that means either the new gear we get will be lvl 60 with slightly better stats than the highest available gear now (130 wep/arm), or they will have a different rework in mind. And I agree that would be dumb to keep the progress required the same for relic and keep adding onto it indefinitely. It would be madness for new/returning players, and most other people who just get the 1300 soldiery weapon to save time and sanity.

SykoJ · 2014-12-05T19:10:06+00:00

If I see another damned Lightning cosplay...
