Update 70 Release Notes

[zulkirjax]

Wait until you see how slow endless fussilable is now. Repeaters are dead. I'm assuming inquisitors are also dead.

At this point, it should be embarrassing, but it appears that it isn't. 3,000 players aren't being kept here because of these events and the game is 18 years old, how much did they give the woman from BG3 to narrate the DM voice in Myth Drannor? Was it worth it not to fix infrastructure/database before fluffing up another seasonal event?

I loved the repeater, but this is ridiculous. My artificer is basically useless after building it around a repeater and rune arm.

Is it me or did the repeating crossbow shoot remarkably slower than before?

Not remarkably but yes, markedly. Honestly.. we're not firing SMG's and data takes a minute. If this reduces lag, I am ALL for it. Plus I prefer the slower-firing sound. The Repeater change is fine as long as they land/hit their target for a die roll.

@colabottles they need to figure out lag, right? So how much did they pay her, that woman? I'm betting it wasn't anywhere near what they paid staff to generate everything yer playing unless they have a bunch of interns.
*assuming you're playing MD; And yes, EG7 needs to put a pause on vomiting content for DDO.

Yeah, I mean we're at the point were lag is wai now. []

SSG has intro'd a lot of things over the decade plus . . . changed, even. Weapon weighting and Tumble come to mind.

Someone should start a list of the sweeping gameplay changes to try to address lag which have all failed! This way, when the bug is finally found and fixed they can start reverting things back to original design... starting with Tumble

Agreed, many in my circle have left game or have turned off their VIP rebew and have stopped spending altogether.

I usually buy all the cosmetic patron coffers, i wont be spending a penny on this new one. The repeater nerf sucked fun value right out if the game for me and i play 95% of the time in heroics and dont plan to change what part of the game I enjoy.

 

[DragonicMeister]

what's the current ruleset for the game as of update 70? is it still 3.5? or is it been upgraded?

You assume correctly. I'd be making better deeps dual-wielding my willie.

Actually, these changes worked! You just think some people just stopped loggin in due to the "improvements", and those fellas are experiencing exactly 0 lag nowadays

Playerbase down 20% since the idea to murder ranged one last time was floated. That makes me happy.

Join me in not playing. Empyrion's fun.

Those re just the ones that have left the game, there are many more that still play but have locked up their spending because of the ranged nerf in heroics. Also, there are some that talked about not spending because of MD rare loot, but I have a feeling those people cant stop spending.

SSG pulled out the big shotgun and pointed it right at their own foot and then pulled the trigger.

Are you basing that off ddoaudit? It doesn't track Cormyr, so all the people over there aren't being accounted for.

 

[Rhaazz]

Nerfs will continue until Moral improves!

Ah, crap. Yeah, you'd be right, then. So much for my impending joy on this game finally collapsing.
