Titan [Extreme Mode]

[Goodberry]

Bad design is taking what makes most people rage (one hit kill mechanics + latency) and making it worse. They're betting too high on their "0.3 update delay" fix; I'm sure it'll still be almost unplayable during peak hours.

Bad design is an understatement. "Almost" unplayable? In Europe, you may drop the "almost".

I have already unsubscribed on this combined issue of "server side evaluation of player position" plus "one hit kill mechanics" plus "long latency". Tired of getting hit by that stupid "mini-ray of death" when you were out of the bad even before the mob started casting. If you think of it, it's surreal.

As Danny Glover says to Mel Gibson, I'm too old for this... nonsense.

uhm, there's 1 landslide going behind him, 2 to the sides, and 2 to the front...that's 5 landslides, not 2 or 3.
Then there's bombs in each not-so-safe safe-spot; So pick a bomb, it's gonna be a blast.

You dont help anyone, by carrying them, you make them lazy, overgeared, and underskilled.
Which leads to that awkward moment, when ilv50-55 DF PUG, perform better, in WP, than bought relic +1 party.
Which leads to vote kicks, and bad community.
So it's a term i learned, it's called false kindness
If you want to be kind and helpful, you can still make a Titan party, to give them the chance to fight in a party, that knows the fight; then they have the chance to actually learn it/get better/clear it. If they die, you wipe, so they only clear it, once they are capable.

It's flabbergasting to me how so many people think there are latency or design issue.
Never had a problem really, even from EU.
Then again, didn't have problems in 1.0 either really, but ppl were going nuts about latency there.

The one thing that's sad about SE's design is how pretty much all mobs have a specific pattern for their skills.
Would be a lot more challenging and fun if it was randomnized imo.
Let's hope for randomnized skill order in Extreme modes. (:

Aery, for all I care they may give bosses skills that wipe all the party without chance of avoiding them. It's your problem now. :P

Just like regular Titan, the sales will start high but then go down to nothing. There was a time people charged a million for a Titan run. Now people will do it for free out of boredom and even those that charge don't charge more than like 100k. A few months after Titan Extreme comes out, wins will be cheap/free/easy, just like regular Titan.

That sounds like awesome fun actually, I'd be down for it!

You don't get the point he still needs to collect the money to pay for it.
It is the same as with the Tomestones if you collect enough you get Ilvl90 gear

My post was dripping with sarcasm, sorry if that didn't come across well.
I think it's perfectly fine to sell to people, as it is a service for something they would otherwise be unable to complete.

My cpu barely runs this game and I have lag problems up the wazoo, but I have still managed to overcome this and got a couple relics. The victory was so sweet! Especially since I did it with complete strangers shouting at revtol who were just as crappy as I was. I can't wait to try these extreme modes!

Coil proved SE game plan.
1. Lets make a game causal friendly. Get people Hooked.
2. Add stuff people take 2-4 months for 8 people to beat all the time saying the game is causal friendly.
3. 8 people finally win, and we make the content a lot easier and causal friendly. but still XX% of the player base can't win because of lag issues.
4. There is no lag issue the game is Causal friendly get better gear, (ya know they can't get better gear without getting this gear 1st, Ya I know but don't tell them that they will keep trying and we will make millions.)
