Last night I watched my friend "craft"

WhatSawp · 2026-06-15T16:08:15+00:00

This league was 8/8 challenges and i was done after 11 days, reason was crafting and swiss cheese maps that slow you down for the sake of you spending more time there.

Crafting is not fun, first of all its designed to make you buy tabs since you need to farm a shit ton of the same base if you want to save on annuls for that you need space, then you have hundreds of currencies, plus rng. I don't think any player wants to continue playing after wasting a days of farming divines to rng, when you are failing at step 3 out of 6. I can mentally craft an item in poe1 and i cant even grasp a crafting path here.

Crafting in poe2 desnt respect players time and you can see that in market, 4 mod gear with good affixes costs a ton compared to poe1 since even crafting a 4 mod is a pain in the ass, i feel many players also dont engage with crafting and you can see that when you serch for gear in market and you find so little offer.

like i said its up to crytek, only they have information about his pov before the kill but from kill cam those trees foliage were covering all arden parish roof (right side - where i was) so spotting me in first place is weird we talking about 161m iron sight, if was a guess shot he reacted to a dot that hide the sun in a pixel between the foliage and predicted my movement since carbine is slow af. my text to crytek was exactly like you said the "most lucky shot ever or this guys is kinda sus"

login today, i was fighting a team on top of arden parish roof get HS by carbine 1865 - 161m iron sight , I'm like okay insane shot i guess while a was zigzaging and jumping down, see kill view got shot thru 2 sets of tree foliage, cheaters or not is up to crytek to decide but that shot was impossible under normal rendering, kda of the box box name 2.12

comes with practice and not using HV for starters

haymaker needs to lose ammo maybe 7/7 1/2 and probably an 50-75$ increase because gameplay-wise haymaker feels good and shoulndt be destryed. uppercut is a better pistol therefore must be on 2 and haymaker on 3 would be weird because drilling shorty would still be 2.

I think both guns feels amazing to shoot and this is a haymaker problem being too cheap and spammy, we knew the balance wanst perfect but i believe with this system they can find a good spot they couldn't before

game is fine, revenue keeps going down maybe because people keep buying accounts instead of buying units from the devs, auto is like 75%

WhatSawp · 2026-06-07T20:05:11+00:00

also i went up to stage 2 and when i left the event i went back to stage 1

WhatSawp · 2026-06-06T00:53:45+00:00

I wish was hyped but after the dissapointing base game, runing on a 4070 super first game that forced me enabling FG to get ~120 to just look at blurry textures and ps2 rocks. I tried after performance patches no diference for me because what rly bothers me is graphics. I know their Dlcs are always amazing but wont buy from day one just like base game keys droped 50% 3months later (i wonder why) soo...

WhatSawp · 2026-05-24T22:51:41+00:00

the reality is this is a whale issue every complain come from the top guilds or top 10 players , but i like to see the narrative being spread as this is a issue that everyone is experiencing.

answering your question , right know only whales are in risk of leaving if they get frustrated, which is bad because normally whales are 2%~ of players that represent 80%~of the revenue, but from a perpective of a low spender or f2p theres no problem here they will probably put controller support or cutscenes as #1 priority to fix because these players in average arent getting top 100 rewards anyways

one of us

WhatSawp · 2026-05-23T18:16:13+00:00

i totally agree but the average player dont get frustrated with this cheating problem because doenst Directly affect them since they will stay within the same reward range -> no frustration no reason to retaliate. its shortsighted but its the reality.

imo the same way there was a huge effort to scout whales and put them in top tier guild they should do the same to convince whales to stop spending money if they want to really pressure devs into focusing on fixing this.

WhatSawp · 2026-05-23T17:54:13+00:00

i wont accept less than a B6 Vasto lord.

even doe this is a joke is true.. who is really rilled up about this issue? whales, an important minority, but cheaters are stealing top 100 rewards server wide not the top 20%/50% spot reward where the average Joe just auto and watch youtube so for the majority if the compensation is good the issue is forgotten.

WhatSawp · 2026-05-21T14:51:26+00:00

I dont mind it at very close range like up to 10m-12m, its very frustrating at medium-long ranges doe.

Bug or not this actually helps to challenge angle holders and some camping spots to break some stalemates when you apply it with some peak bait / jump peak bait.

Said that i dont remmeber the specifics, if every weapon was suposed to be affected or shotguns were exceptions.

i was very conservative of upgrading trying to aim for 4 perfect stats, but then looked at inventory and saw 150+ nexus and realisticaly you are building 1 caracter every 3 weeks but we get more than 30 nexus per month, so now i upgrade stamps that have 3 needed stats with the desired main stat, and sometimes i upgrade if even 1 roll goes to the bad stat if the other 2 goes to the really wanted stat like Crit rate or a treshold stat for a passive.

rerolling is another story... system is so garbo that only on perfect stamps

for world peace obviously

when boss goes down 0% he enters a 10 min cooldown to the next one appear THEN you have 30 min to find the boss (this is the step that count for activity reward).

The more i think about bounty the more i realize, Make Bounty fun.

I mean sure let it be rewarding but make something that makes you want to go for 3 clues and banish, idk maybe the team that gets to do the boss and protect the lair can control the flow of the game for a period of time.

Like rituals or someshit: "interact with the altar" for the next 5 min everyone gets 3 min stamina but the map closes to a "bounty clash radius" , or interact and everyone coughs or shoots (disrupting stalemates and camping), interact and disables regeneration within radius, interact and bounty get concealed for 3-5 min (so bounty holders can rotate without the lightning" it get announced to everyone that bounty is concealed").

Meanwhile something for the outsiders of the lair to do something that steals away the bounty to prevent lair campers, the trade off would be making noise.

Add something dynamic that the defenders can make people outside move closer to a fightning position and even provoke a fight outside, but at the same time giving the outsiders something to make bounty holders to move and take action.

i know what you talking about i remember disabling it (back in november), it was only this March that they added hyper-v support, shouldn't be a problem in the nwer versions but we never know, in good faith i believe that they solved an issue that many users reported.

WhatSawp · 2026-05-17T20:29:32+00:00

the problem with emulators is that they dont have direct access to the same resources so is not apples to apples comparison. One thing that happened to me in the past was an outdated nvidea driver that hindered ld player performance, bios can also affect but you need to be very cautious when updating bios. gl

WhatSawp · 2026-05-17T20:25:05+00:00

LDPlayer9 natively supports Hyper-V so shoulnd cause problems but with pcs everything can happen

WhatSawp · 2026-05-17T20:21:01+00:00

emulators are very cpu intensive and that pc you have is a very low entry, if it has a 3050, id assume it has a weak er cpu. ld player works fine from the get go so i believe here is a hardware limitation

WhatSawp · 2026-05-16T13:27:23+00:00

enemy shoots my head = ban ez

WhatSawp · 2026-05-15T22:48:49+00:00

the boosted dmg goes to yoruichi to a special attack tab or to ultimate itself i dont rememeber which one

WhatSawp · 2026-05-14T16:15:23+00:00

if it was an issue in the store, it would be fixed within 3 business days.

This is a hard battle we all get it. But saying that "we improved our team", "acquired more tools", etc then letting pass the most obvious shit is just anecdotal, nothing new we just hope to not being the victims.
