Why are we finally getting a mod to clean up suggestions but they are more full of trolls than ever before

@frosty creek has always been a annoying troll

frosty creek
#

2 suggestion in a day and its spam ?

#

wow

strange sable

Also probably 7 by the way he talks

@steady cloud is just obsessed with p2w games for some weird reason

Man... in this life.. you have to live and let live

He admits to spending 10k

On games

lucid root
#

why do people with a fortune always play the worst games, like some mobile kingdom builder or something

shadow scaffold
#

Ofc he will want to do the same here

#

And suggest it.

white cliff
#

Yet he’s not self aware enough to understand why it ruins a lot of games. And the ramifications of being a whale in mobile games?

glacial bridge
#

people who play games dont need to throw fistfuls of cash to have fun. people who are incompetent use money as a way to find fun since they cannot compete on an even field

white cliff
#

DnD is a dev passion project not a cash grab.

lucid root
#

more money spent does directly equate to more fun though

vivid rover
#

if i was a dev and saw whales waving 10k$ each at me id grab the harpoons and implement some p2w

#

and this is completely normal in korea

#

you guys are naive

white cliff
#

Good thing you’re not.

#

The game was designed because they where sick of the culture and games being created.

#

Check out any interviews or QnA’s.

vivid rover
#

thats a PR statement, you cannot trust anything companies say

#

their actions will speak for them

mystic skiff
vivid rover
#

nobody cares not about money

glacial bridge
#

we could all come up with cash grab schemes if we wanted to.

vivid rover
#

they have families to feed and mortgages to pay

#

we arent all in the position to grab cash, it takes an opportunity

#

and almost everyone would take it

strange sable

smoky yoke
vivid rover
#

its fine to be optimistic but stay cautious and dont treat PR statements as ground truth

white cliff
#

Most of, if not all of the devs came from high companies and titles, to create a passion project that was in opposition to the Korean work culture, and game design. Although that mortgages and food are evident, I don’t see why they wouldn’t be. The passion behind this speaks volumes, and they would take whale handouts. That for one is very clear.

vivid rover
#

i would milk whales for all theyre worth if i was in their position

white cliff
#

You should watch interviews and QnA’s like I said before.

vivid rover
#

free money is nice

white cliff
#

You should listen to the story of Otto the tavern dog.

sacred hill
white cliff
#

Again, good thing you’re not a game designer.

#

this is why i posted a suggestion this morning about focusing cosmetic purchases to Tavern decorations. We want ways for individuals to give extra support to devs but I dont want to see cosmetic skins inside matches

#d-and-d-suggestions message

strange sable
vivid rover
#

games that let whales spend infinite money are massively popular and successful

white cliff

Producing a good game makes money.

vivid rover

it wouldnt kill anything

you cant eat pride

And this is why you’re staying blocked. 🤷🏼‍♂️

strange sable

Not worth my effort.

sacred hill
#

diablo immortal is still alive?

white cliff
#

Not explaining it for a third time.

vivid rover
#

diablo is a huge success, the entire series

#

earned so much money and will keep earning

#

same for future titles

glacial bridge
#

diablo immortal was a financial success. its also the go-to example for a terrible game that highlights developer greed at the expense of their fans

agile condor
#

Yeah, sounds like Darker is their best player

glacial bridge
#

diablo immortal has stained the Diablo franchise as well as Blizzard

vivid rover
#

certainly hasnt stained their finances

#

thats all that matters to companies

strange sable
#

Would you rather be wealthy while having a good game and community, or very rich and have a game that is looked down upon for greed

glacial bridge
#

thats also why i'm looking to play video games like dark and darker instead of Diablo 4. miss me with that sellout shit

vivid rover
#

very rich, 100%

white cliff
#

When you’re promoting corporate greed.

vivid rover
#

in the first place whats so great about having a game to your name?

white cliff
#

Instead of making good games.

vivid rover
#

you can do all sorts of things with all that money

glacial bridge
#

im just one person, but i'll vote with my dollar regardless

agile condor
white cliff
#

None of it goes towards salaries I’ll tell you that.

sacred hill
vivid rover
#

who cares if im rich? lmao

#

people still buy it

white cliff
#

You aren’t rich though. You are a dev in this case.

strange sable
white cliff
#

It’s like talking to a wall.

sacred hill
vivid rover
#

the devs are entirely uninvolved in deciding how the game is monetized

#

corpo decides that

strange sable

You can converse all you want, but I do not think Darker's worldview will be adjusted. I almost feel like hes trolling you guys or being semantical about the whole thing.

mystic skiff

I think we all just block darker lol, dude is just a massive troll

agile condor

Blocked as well

I mean, you guys think the team of 24 devs is gonna count votes and decide on the price date and model of making money in the long term? Lol

agile condor

Loll

as long as russians dont revolt against putin they are complicit

watch for the timeout

this ought to be an intellectual and productive discussion...

its like the nazis in germany, they were all guilty for not rebelling against hitler

not just hitler himself

@rose sandal

Idk if this is against the rules, but its massively ignorant thats for sure...

@agile condor is the one who brought up politics and probably supports putin

anyone moral stands with ukraine

end of story

strange sable

<@&988703997378584596> look what darker is saying man

i think darker is an example of what happens to someone when they don't get their monthly dose of dark and darker

can you say that you stand with ukraine? say it i dare you

Y’all for real, just block him and move on.

mossy ruin
#

Did anyone ever run into Rangers jumping up on torches near ramps and being practically unreachable? I wanted to record it and report but he got down.

#

Did this get shed light by anyone?

robust salmon
#

it's not unreachable if he got up there

mystic skiff
#

I mean, if rangers can do it cant others get there too

fervent crag
#

Crouch jump up there

mossy ruin
#

Well he was shootinf

robust salmon
#

there are many crouch jumpable secret spots u can get to, you just have to discover them

smoky yoke
mossy ruin
#

Its unreachable alive, yeah i meant its overly advantageous imo

smoky yoke
#

and thats why as i said ranger has more advantages than others
especially in maps with very open area

tawny lagoon
#

Elevation in general seems a bit too powerful

robust salmon
#

u play a lot of things to ur advantage in this game, i've been that ranger and i've also fought them, best strat is to just go away

tawny lagoon
#

Both PvE and pvp

mystic skiff
#

I mean its an advantage for everyone, no? it would be a different story if only ranger could do it

Yea

I agree, the wheel map when added back to high roller was incredibly hard to push against three rangers.

#

Verticality seems to have a ton of power, as it does in most games.

AI are a big part of the game.

smoky yoke

#

i somewhat agree. i care more about what im doing and the other players. ai needs buffs but its not at the top of my priority list

mystic skiff
#

some of the AI is just to easy to work around

frosty creek
#

it dont have to be big loot .. maybe 1% better loot only ?

smoky yoke
#

and possibly avoid people cheesing at the top of objects
you could like stand there even in some chests and not getting hit by mummies/other mobs

smoky yoke
mystic skiff
#

honestly once you know how to cheese, you can beat almost anything easily accept ghost king

glacial bridge
white cliff
#

He’s saying in the tavern there should be an npc which can be killed, if it’s alive it increases loot drops by a percentage.

smoky yoke
frosty creek
#

ok so there is cat in lobby when waiting for full players (16)
i suggest add pug
and make both attackabel
if cat alive when game start every one get little bit better loot in game ! very small

mystic skiff
#

I dont see the point in that

#

unless you just wanna see a cute pug

smoky yoke
mystic skiff

if you want better loot go to high roller or hell

There’s already a cute dog though.

it was fun when someone "attacked" the dog
and then everyone in the tavern, focusing on that player, everyone stabbing the one who even dared to touch the dog lol

was really a fun moment Skull

I meant to put a comma there

You can beat almost anything easily, EXCEPT ghost king

you can beat almost anything easily; accept GHOST KING!

accept him into your heart

Never beat him

I will never accept him

What about.,.... accept the DRAGON?

thats the first 2 days of release, just hoarding things and not using them

#

Gotta have spare sets for when I die back to back

#

I feel like this game is comparable to high stakes gambling, in terms of the adrenaline high you get from it

#

And just like the gambling addict we play until our stash is wiped

#

The gambler always plays to lose YoloRage

#

Go outside and it's an mmo EyesShake

strange sable
#

@wary shell could you explain what that spell would do in the suggestion?

lucid root
#

Crapload of damage I'm assuming

wary shell
#

its an AoE that emits from the caster, does damage and pushes enemies back

#

it does good damage in dark souls, but its certainly not necessary for this game

strange sable
#

no

#

I really like the idea of being able to decorate your tavern/table

lucid root
#

Yeaaah, maybe you can get banners behind you for killing each boss

strange sable
#

@wintry forge why are you against this?

#

Would be cool if they made a whole area to keep your stash and NPC merchants but that would be a lot of work

agile condor
#

Idk think I'ma downvote as well lol - just don't care about stuff like that right now

strange sable
agile condor
#

If anything has more suggestions than troll suggestions, it's minor changes for 3 years from now lol 😄

lucid root
#

Then if you kill the highroller variant your banner turns kinda red

agile condor

yeah so for the 2.5 seconds you're in the tavern, you see a flash of red

For a second I thought it said potentially removing EyesShake

mint ravine

It was an idea.
During non PlayTest periods.

I don't want to take away anyone's ability to express idea's.
Especially as we do have some very genuine inputs.

However this system does get abused frequently and ends up in an argument here.

If anyone has idea's on improving this section, I'm open to it, feel free to DM Me.

@granite plinth battle passes are bad, and don't really make sense cause are only always against to the consumers

white cliff
#

Anything that turns green should be put into a separate channel to be looked at permanently and for review, and the others get removed.

#

Simple.

smoky yoke
#

yes

#

i had a suggestion with 100 positive thumbs up but rip
people trolling flooding and probably it wont be seen Skull
not even sure why people wanna troll, or trying to give bad suggestions on purpose
just to ruin the game or something 🤔

granite plinth
#

Like, you wave in the game etc

#

And if u kill someone, an animation of a garbage bin falls on top of them

white cliff
#

Not every game needs a battle pass.

#

Fortnite has clearly left a stain on the industry because of profitability. And it’s been so successful it’s confused and convinced consumers that it’s the only viable solution; and one they want.

smoky yoke
#

but i hope the gestures will be free at least
and i hope they just monetize on skins only

white cliff
#

Buy my $70 game, and then pay $20 for content that you should already have but is locked behind challenges and it isn’t guaranteed unless you time sink into the game. When is this something consumers decided they wanted?

lusty wren
#

Damn troll messed up my 100% upvote on my suggestion 😄

smoky yoke
#

if they add microtransactions for cosmetics i hope
cosmetics wont have stats
and i hope no fomo
and i also hope there will be at least as percentage 80% free cosmetic as majority
while the cosmetics with real money just a minority

#

maybe they could use like the DRG model where they give tons of free cosmetics when big updates drop but also with a normal cosmetic pack just to support devs potentially

#

in some games the majority of cosmetics are just behind a paywall rip
like 90% paid
and 10% just obtainable in game

rigid prawn
#

DRG should be the industry standard for battlepass systems

#

Fuck i want dwarves so bad lol

white cliff
#

Why am I forced to play for content I already bought?

smoky yoke
rigid prawn
smoky yoke
#

like, its not even a battle pass anyway

#

they never called such i think

rigid prawn
#

its called the "performance pass" i think

#

buts its pretty obvious what it is lol

smoky yoke
rigid prawn
#

the problem with battle passes is the FOMO

white cliff
#

I’m not saying don’t sell skins or have transactions.

#

I just don’t like the industry standard battle pass.

rigid prawn
#

but DRG allows you buy things in the BP after its over with the ingame currencies to counteract it

white cliff
#

It’s not advantageous for a consumer in any way.

smoky yoke
#

also i think in early access i very doubt they will start to charge for dlcs, or skins
maybe they will start that when the game will be fully released probably

#

ah i dont like battle passes as well

#

they look like mobile stuff battle stuff

rigid prawn
#

i wouldn't fear any toxic industry stuff from the D&D devs, theyve made it pretty clear they hate that shit

smoky yoke
#

just a weird kr4p to force people in buying those because of the fomo

white cliff
#

No I don’t expect it either.

#

I’m just discussing why I don’t want a battle pass as it was a suggestion someone made.

#

And we are in fact in said channel.

by doing the surrender emote and dropping the stuff manually 🤔

white cliff
#

Small sample size, but it is a positive rate.

#

Is it green though?

rigid prawn
#

yeah i feel like including any sort of monetisation model in your suggestion is a guaranteed way to insure you get 40+ downvotes

mossy venture
#

d be dead be fore that

rigid prawn
#

i put a suggestion to make races have 0 ingame effects and be earned ingame with the OPTION of monetisation and it got like 4 upvotes but in discussion people seem to want it

smoky yoke
# white cliff Is it green though?

not sure what it does mean the green bar in the suggestions btw
i made a suggestion had 102 positive reviews but isnt green or at least maybe it was

sonic pendant
rigid prawn
#

i think its quite literally our business since it could make the game unappealing if done incorrectly

mossy venture
rigid prawn
#

discussing it now gives them and idea of ways they could do it without pissing us off lol

#

cause at the end of the day they will need to make money to keep the servers up

#

if you want to play the game for longer then 2 years

smoky yoke
#

so not sure why races shouldnt have other stats

#

the other ones

rigid prawn
#

i think classes should be the main driving force behind stats and abilities, but minor racials like WOW might work if they arent to heavy

#

the only exception to that rule would be once again dwarves

smoky yoke
#

i like dwarves

rigid prawn
#

since you are changing the hit box dramatically it needs to be done right

#

i want dwarves too dwarf barbs would be a blast

smoky yoke
#

yea but people can also aim 🤔

#

honestly it would be easier to make headshots to dwarves as in most of people tend to hit the torso or even lower when they attack

rigid prawn
#

its easier to hit the head of a dwarf no doubt, but a dwarf fighter with a pavise could be op

smoky yoke
#

lolol

#

unbreakable dwarf

rigid prawn
#

and how do you handle tigh areas like the secret paths you have to crouch through

#

a dwarf wouldnt have to crouch so would move full speed through them

smoky yoke
#

yes another advantage of dwarves prob

sonic pendant
smoky yoke
#

i guess races should have an advantage but also a disvantage

#

so its balanced

#

and dwarf seems to have either both of those

smoky yoke
rigid prawn
#

i think if its a full size humanoid its just a cosmetic difference really, but dwarves, gnomes and such are bitch to implement

smoky yoke
#

dwarves i imagine them with dual axes/greathammer only

rigid prawn
#

maybe a subclass for barb

#

causw dwarf ranger could be really annoying lol

#

or god forbid a dwarf wizard

wary shell
#

hasted dwarf barbarian EyesShake

smoky yoke
#

dont know but i like variety as in diversity
universal hitboxes are probably good to follow i guess

rigid prawn
#

for balance its the easiest

smoky yoke
#

the pacifist dwarf bard that want just to loot

#

and sing

rigid prawn
#

i think mordhau did an alright job with its implementation

smoky yoke
fast lily
#

Dwarfs would have a smaller hitbox.

On this topic, the skeleton skins didn't feel like they had a huge impact on the gameplay loop despite having a stat-shuffle on it tbh.

rigid prawn
#

yeah i ran around as a skeleton on every class and didnt really notice a difference

smoky yoke
rigid prawn
#

for minmax it might might matter but in games like this is the difference of getting oneshot by a little or oneshot by a lot lol

smoky yoke
#

maybe dwarves could just jump a bit higher so they can at least land headshots too to humanoids

rigid prawn
#

jump distance and height would have to be consistent for balance i think

smoky yoke
#

not sure if they would ever implement dwarfes

rigid prawn
#

but having the ability to sweep the legs out from someone or higher damage to limbs to compensate the fact your hitting legs with 70-80% of your swings could be a balance point

smoky yoke
#

the dwarves doing headshots in the humans feet

rigid prawn
#

getting a headshot as a dwarf could be an achievement lol

fast lily
#

I like the idea that humans = no stat changes.
Any other race = An upside + a downside that doesn't ever make it BIS for a specific class.

For example;
Humans - No bonus
Elves - Slight movespeed increase, slight HP decrease
Lizardfolk - Increase swim speed, decrease land speed.
Dwarves - Decreased hitbox size (both a positive and a negative), increased mining speed.

smoky yoke
#

or bandages Skull

rigid prawn
#

yeah it would have to stay small changes or you would get things like that one suggestion to add nightvision to lizardman race lol

#

dark and NVGOGGLES

smoky yoke
#

i think the hitbox for dwarves it would be still balanced as in humans would very land tons of headshots to dwarves probably
but i think dwarves might also defend themselves properly with their kit or abilities

rigid prawn
#

its would have to be tested thoroughly, i can se the dwarves being either OP or useless if done incorrectly

smoky yoke
#

they should make it more darker

fast lily
#

Kobold - 1/2 HP, 2x movement speed, constantly screaming

goblins would be cool too but i think it could also be a good enemy type

# mint ravine It was an idea. During non PlayTest periods. I don't want to take away anyone'...

Please don't take people's advice to just delete the ones that get lots of down votes. Just because there are people on Discord that vote on suggestions and don't like them doesn't mean they are all bad ideas and the devs won't like them either. This is one reason why this channel gets lots of arguments, because people on this channel criticize people who get lots of down votes, whether or not they are trolling.

@mint ravine I don't see how having two servers is better than one. In q-and-a I asked Graysun if the devs read all suggestions, and he said they do, and he writes down his favorites. Maybe the slow mode could be extended to 2 hours. If people think of more than one suggestion in less time than that they can write it down so they don't forget about it.

Devs already answered about necromancer in their q&a.

Q: What about druids, monks, or a necromancer?
A: We want to have them. We want druids to be able to turn into animals. If we add monks, we will have to think about how we punch and kick in the FPP view. As for Necromancer, I don’t know if that’s what the name will be, but there must be something like that. It’s fun.
Recap of q&a can be found in dev-qna channel, but no one bothers to look there

I was referring to seeing repeat posts, not specifically necromancer.

Thoughts on these ideas to improve the suggestion channel?:

  • To keep everything organized suggestions with a rating of 15 or more should be archived in a different channel

  • Furthermore Suggestions with -30 or less should be deleted to remove clutter

  • Suggestions should be put on an increased cooldown timer to prevent spam. The current cooldown timer is 5 minutes and doesn't prevent spam.

  • To deal with trolls, there should be a new troll 🧌 reaction. If a suggestion gets voted over a certain threshold (such as 10) with the troll reaction it can be deleted and the suggester can be temporarily muted from suggesting and reacting to suggestions for a set time (such as 48 hours).

  • Wardens should not be the only people who decide which are trolls and which are not (even though I am happy mods such as Teddybear have been helping) because it can be hard to tell who is trolling unless you are actively looking through suggestions and the suggestion-discussion channels. For example the suggestion "put a soap bar in the game that removes some bad buffs from u to encourage players in taking showers too" is easy to see as a joke or a troll, but the suggestion "maybe add some elemnts which are able to be only unlockeable with money so it helps the dev and admins a bit out to flow more money into the project and improve it further maybe make a new class which is slightly better than others so ppl have the incentive to unlock it with money i think that would imrpove the game a lot and gave some better cash flow for the whole project" is difficult to see is a troll unless you know that suggester has actively been suggesting ideas that the community dislikes in order to make people upset.

I am against removing suggestions based on their rating. I also think that idea with troll emote will be turned around and trolls will end up using it to remove any or all suggestions that trolls don't like

On the one hand, I don't think most of the absolutely terrible suggestions are trolls, so they can't really be removed as such. I think people really are that out of touch with the game that they don't know what a reasonable, decent suggestion is.

On the other hand, I wish they'd take the hint that what they're suggesting is horrible, and re-evaluate their understanding of the game and the direction the game is going before making subsequent suggestions. Just because something would be cool or another game has a feature does not mean it fits this game's style or balance.

# wintry forge Just because some people think a suggestion doesn't fit this game doesn't mean t...

The devs do decide that, yes. However there are some things which would blatantly break the game, and those are what I am calling terrible suggestions. While everyone is entitled to an opinion, some opinions on what would be cool (and some of them are cool) would be utterly game breaking. That is what makes them terrible suggestions.

For example, while I do not agree with something like "give rogues an ability to turn out the lights," that is not a terrible suggestion. That's someone's opinion, yes. It's not game breaking. I just don't agree with it because I fail to see its usefulness, or how it adds to the game. But it should stay there and the devs should read it, because hey! Maybe they have some reason for wanting it.

However, something like "add a cleric mind control spell," while it sounds cool, would be utterly game breaking, frustrating for whoever it is used on, and generally only fun for the cleric abusing it, because there are a thousand different ways to get someone killed if that even lasted a short amount of time. It is clear that something like this does not fit into the game, and never could. The only type of person who would suggest such a thing has absolutely no understanding of the game's balance. That is what makes it a terrible suggestion.

I guess what I'm saying is, everyone is entitled to their opinion. But just because someone has an opinion does not make their opinion right or good. And while ultimately the developers get to judge what is and isn't a useful suggestion to them, sometimes a suggestion is so mind-numbingly bad, it doesn't take a developer to know it.

literally theres 10 year olds here who make suggestions straight out of world of warcraft

I'm not saying anything against that, yet that is the attitude I've seen while lurking this channel.

foggy shadow
#

the devs already have their ideas, and if theyre going to look at our suggestions, its going to be when they have nothing better to do on a friday night, maybe joking with friends

#

and a small tiny minute fraction will actually stick, and theyll say its a good idea

white cliff
#

Some of them however go directly against what the devs have stated though.

For example iron mace was founded by former AAA developers set to be the antithesis against Korean work culture, and dark and darker to be a counter against what normally exists, and the predatory practices those company use like pay to win etc.

So, when suggestions are make buyable classes, permanent gear with money, purchasable everything. I’m not sure how this would be seen as anything other than a troll.

#

Which comes from one person, upvoted by other people who troll instead of discussing the suggestion.

Oh no, I'm not talking about those people you mentioned who recently started making these suggestions.
I'm talking about the people who I've seen discussing in here since the playtest when I talk about the attitude.

white cliff
#

I mean, people believe bad suggestions are an attack on the games vision. Certain suggestions would destroy the game and people feel just as a responsible for telling iron mace what they don’t want, just as they would for what they want.

#

I believe that’s where the attitude comes from.

foggy shadow
#

thats totally true, but the devs already know that and can make that realization

#

they can just like you or me realize its a troll or a 10 year old WoW player

loud matrix
foggy shadow
#

lol true, especially with new pokemons

99% of those are similar shit, but actually sent in through email or letters.
So if you want to keep a healthy mind as a game dev, you cannot possibly take such suggestions as seriously as people here do.

foggy shadow
#

yup, at the very best, they could just make another channel that only contains the good suggestions, to save dev time

Could ask some people to pre-filter through those suggestions kek.

Really you can already buy the unique currency for 30, and create stacks of 300 gold.

Also the limited storage is part of the game design.

#

Not really something I think needs to be tackled.

loud matrix
#

Others have also suggested to have filter options so you'd only see stuff you can equip and so forth. So there's several possible approaches to make the trade menu more legible.
Icons would, especially if the chat moves rapidly, quickly scroll the menu too.

#

I mean, the suggestion is just to make an auction house really.

lucid root
#

Provides a good bulletin to go back to when everyone is trolling at the moment

foggy shadow
#

totally agree, i think the admins could definitely make the suggestions channels better

white cliff
#

Right now you need to be in a chat to actively sell an item, regardless of if it’s trash green gear, or legendaries. It requires a time sink. Though yes it’s hard to read sometimes, and could use a sorting system. Creating an auction house does the same thing but instead of sorting through all types of gear I’m sorting through rarities of gear that never changed in price that I can’t barter for.

#

At least in a trade channel there’s room to barter or tell somebody their legendary interaction gear isn’t worth anything.

#

I think it’s harder to impact a market with a stagnant auction house.

loud matrix
#

So for you, stagnant means indirect trade?

lucid root
#

If only blizzard didn't leave a bad taste in my mouth with the words auction house

white cliff
#

Sure, because there’s no bartering.

#

I think it’s quicker for people to realize that I can’t spend X hours trying to sell this armor for 1000g, but I’m visually seeing that this guy can sell it for 800g.

#

So instead of spending X hours I can spend X less, and it helps dictate price a bit better.

foggy shadow
#

I think theres an issue with the auction house though, of lack of communication, kind of like the grand exchange in runescape

white cliff
#

Sure absolutely let me sort gear.

foggy shadow
#

I like Borg's suggestion where there would be icons that just direct you to talk to the player of the item, that way you still need to talk

white cliff
#

Honestly divide the channels by class.

lucid root
#

Yeah grand exchange killed some charm

white cliff
#

But don’t take away the time sink.

foggy shadow
#

Yeah, have filters for items, but when you go to buy the item, you're just sent into a message box with the other player

#

so you keep that element of communication still

#

and can barter etc

loud matrix
#

Okay, reasonable.
I can say from experience though that in both cases, price fixing is entirely possible. It is harder to do in a barter focused trade system (so direct trade), but not impossible. It depends almost entirely on the player base (both merchants and buyers) and their understanding of the game's economy.
The more people know what a piece of gear is worth, the faster trade becomes on both ends.

foggy shadow
#

Its like Path of Exile which has this method essentially, but with 3rd party websites

loud matrix
#

That being said, I much prefer bartering myself. Has a nice feel to it.

foggy shadow
#

The difference is it would be implemented in the game itself

#

Probably inevitable though

foggy shadow
#

yupp

loud matrix
#

Oh you can be sure that there will be 3rd party resources to give everyone a guideline to how much a piece of gear is worth in gold at some point.
And then most bartering will happen within that price range.

foggy shadow
#

We're talking about PoE, these third party sites are essentially the game's auction houses

#

but for sure though

To be fair, there were 2-3 simultaneous discussions about the topic of trade here.

people don't seem to like specifics; calling it platinum in a DnD / middle ages sort of game might be disliked, as might setting a stack value of 25, or setting the value at 50g. if it just said "a currency above gold for more efficient trading" it might have done better. but also, we don't really need a higher tier of currency, we just need larger gold pouches, so there's a few reasons it might have been shot down.

#

it seems like the more general your suggestion, the better it performs, in any case.

#

there's just several points of data in that suggestion that could cause disagreement.

you want to try to have one concept per post, or you risk someone liking part of it but downvoting due to the specificity of another part.

mossy ruin
#

Yeah, thats fair, but imo the post is generalized enough that obviously the values or name could be adjusted if its IN THE GAME, but the core concept there is pretty blatant, probably an ego thing

lucid root
#

On the flipside putting 3 suggestions in one suggestion is just asking to get downvoted

mossy ruin
#

But thats good a way to dissect and answer my confusion. But I just think the specifics there are nothing to fret about.

vestal thorn
#

I thought one of the interview VoDs already stated they'll be adding "bags" or bigger gold bags no?

I heard that too yeah

The only suggestion I wanted to make was for endgame random card lobby, but I don't see the point as my suggestion would rely heavily on this game having enough pop to split the lobby into 2 or 3 so I won't bother until release lol.

sonic pendant
vestal thorn

There are a few games where you have specific class skills. In the randomizer lobby everyone starts with base stats of a fighter at lv 0. You gain 10x or more exp per mob/player kill, every level you get to pick from 3 random skills from the entire pool of skills that exist in the game, Every other level you get a perk, this goes on until you have 4 perks 2 skills (something else could be added beyond this point, maybe stats). Every new game you reset back to lv 0.

This mode would be completely for fun at the end game, and some skills would be 1) broken 2) really OP. It's fun though.

mossy ruin
#

Oh shit, id play that

sonic pendant
mossy ruin
#

If you can vaguely express that in a 'general' manner with only the core concept bleeding through and have an 'if' somewhere about playerbase splitting, id upvote

vestal thorn
#

Thanks, it's and old idea from a pretty popular map on the old version of Dota (back when it was a WC3 custom map). It also exists as a popular private wow server mod, where you create your own hero type of thing. It's one of those concepts where the more diverse classes and skills there are in the game the more an idea like this shines.

I'll wait till this game is more fleshed out and see what the user base is. I'd still want fast normal lobbys over anything like this.

mossy ruin
#

It would be refreshing though, do we keep loot?

#

if so, it would be good for late wipe players

vestal thorn
mossy ruin
#

fair enough

opaque slate
mossy ruin
#

Either way, its a cool alternative gamemode, maybe they will do that as events, I think timed events where we can do silly gamemodes would be cool.

sonic pendant
mossy ruin
#

Or an alternative gamemode with a separate leaderboard

sonic pendant
#

and that was only two queues

mossy ruin
#

so blessed be with 1minute fill up.

white cliff
#

Yeah but the game can turn into tarcov if they divide the queues into 24ths.

mossy ruin
#

PUBG also long queues sometimes, also also, league of legends ranked actual drafting takes soooo long if people dont lock in.

#d-and-d-suggestions message this is a great example of "too much specificity" in a suggestion; almost everyone wants triple blues back, but 4 or 5 is a LOT.

mossy ruin
#

yeah I saw that too

#

I downvoted because of the latter half, you are very right there

glacial bridge
#

i like the 1 man portals

#

puts you in a situation where you have to talk strategy with your teammates

mossy ruin
#

I agree with both

#

I think having a single 3 man one or something somewhere can give scenarios where a 3man can hide near a 3man portal and gank a group that finds it after

smoky yoke
#

a tri portal always appear at the final circle

verbal marsh
#

I tote think final circle should always spawn a triple portal whether red or blue randomly.

mossy ruin
#

really? ive never seen a blue triportal

sonic pendant
# glacial bridge i like the 1 man portals

i agree that i had some good tense moments where myself or a tm had to decide to potentially sacrifice themselves to go searching for an extract in the swarm, but i would like at least one triple in the final circle for the last team standing

sonic pendant
glacial bridge
mossy ruin
#

My friends and I just dropped our loot to the guy who was leaving

#

and then we searched for another way out

brave schooner
#

when i did duo my teammate would usually just give me his best loot and rings and such, then id leave and get to watch him try to clutch

#

its pretty fun

verbal marsh
#

I often just tell teamates to exit and solo next lv

sonic pendant
# mossy ruin My friends and I just dropped our loot to the guy who was leaving

that part i didn't care for. just didn't feel necessary, after surviving the whole raid, being out of heals and unable to go deeper, to have to let someone die to save their gear. that's why i'd like one triple at the final circle, maybe even like the last 20-30 seconds of raid. if there's no one left to fight, you should all be able to leave.

brave schooner
#

i think the biggest thing id like to be added is just more variety with the maps

rough elm
#

I mean they could put triple portals again in mid , but each in ur group maybe would need a special item which would be expensive to get (Not sure about how would u get would u buy find it idk) ? , and only if all 3 have that item then they can activate triple portal and then escape.

sonic pendant
mossy ruin
brave schooner
#

no point in overcomplicating things with a bunch of stuff locked behind item gates itll just get confusing for new players

verbal marsh
brave schooner
#

i think a lot of the appeal of the game is also it's simplicity

mossy ruin
#

There is some to have there yeah, but its also the first decent attempt at a fantasy style dungeon delve that actually feels like we are looting a dungeon

lusty wren
brave schooner
#

just more maps, dont think procedural would be goo

#

d

mossy ruin
#

Yeah, it can be something they make waaay later tbh, procedural shouldn't be an issue, they can always come back to trying it.

glacial bridge
#

i envisioned just using the same pre-build dungeon rooms, and procedural just being the connecting hallways between them.

so the layout of the dungeon changes, even if the rooms are recognizable

verbal marsh
#

Hopefully they just go city of heroes route with quest creation : P

smoky yoke
#

putting enemies randomized but still in fixed poll spawns would give more variety already

white cliff
glacial bridge
verbal marsh
#

Custom dungeon challanges that individuals with high dungeon mastery points can create and when players lose lewt in the dungeon it has greater chance of putting out quality gear.

#

how does that sound

mossy ruin
#

Mario maker?

verbal marsh
#

basically, thats what city of heroes did : P

#

aside from fact coh wasnt a lewt based game.

#

or pvp : P

lusty wren
#

I think you either go full blown procedural or you go the map knowledge route

mossy ruin
#

That stuff is always interesting, and players that like the genre/idea but dont enjoy playing may end up sticking around longer messing around with that kind of stuff. But it would be split from our stashes for sure

lusty wren
#

and seeing how they suck at it ya id rather the map knowledge route

#

But maybe i the future

#

future expansion or some shit

#

with randomly generated maps

smoky yoke
#

everyone will expect to find the same mobs in the same locations
putting them randomized at least is nice cause it gives more unpredictability and games will be always different
just the enemies, not the maps

brave schooner
#

id rather have really high quality cuustom made dungeons than some shitty procedural ones

mossy ruin
#

I think the main draw for creating the most unpredictability... is moving loot. Idgaf what enemy spawns in any room if i can loot and close a door thats what ima do.

#

If loot had a better variance, I wouldnt rush rooms

#

But that creates contested areas so its a good thing

#

But for the sense of immersion, wandering around slightly aimlessly actually searching for loot may be better than having contention, creates more happenstance combat than expecting someone around the corner camping the loot rooms route to center.

#

Pathing is very predictable, especially because we all have a map.

verbal marsh
#

Seemed like most people either rushed middle or hung on the fringes looting

sonic pendant
verbal marsh
#

or rushed every starting area.

mossy ruin
#

well there can be a constant of a 'center'

#

a procedural system can be anchored to a constant section. A lot of procedural often has modules like that, or can appear procedural but be highly modular. Warframe was all modules iirc.

verbal marsh
#

would imagine if they wanted to fix the starting issues a minority of players are having the best way would to have a 2 minute shift after the game starts and allow players to seal themselves in the starting room and wait for it.

#

that way if you get rushed you can just opt out like a turd, and the player gets a fleeing message.

#

to everyone who remains

mossy ruin
#

I kinda get what you typed maybe? But I have an offshoot of that. What if the map ROTATED like a puzzle every couple minutes, A new map thats round instead of square, whoa

#

With a warning ofc, so you dont get squished

agile condor
verbal marsh
agile condor
#

?

mossy ruin
#

That doesn't really fix his point

#

In the new scenario they get this 'penalty' and assumably kicked from game. But prior to that moment the door is still closed, therefore occupied.

#

Until it opens, it gets camped

verbal marsh
#

well then which would you prefer : P

mossy ruin
#

Players that load poorly, load poorly.

If the game need to optimize, then sure, if some people are on windows 97, thats on them

These are the kids of suggestions I wish Suspense would post here first

lucid root
#

Pretty much everyone should have an ssd by now

verbal marsh
#

Oh the door would have to be locked, the starting room is tech your room.

#

but to opt out you'd have to lock your door, so being afk wouldn't effect that.

mossy ruin

o_O

mossy ruin

ill probably play on SSD in next playtest though

agile condor

mossy ruin

Small indie game, didnt care what drive it was on, didnt expect to play it much

glacial bridge

i have an SSD only for my operating system, i have a second one that SHOULD be used for games but i have wayyy too many things installed so most is on HDD.

eventually i will clean it up but im lazy

agile condor

EVEN SO, this is still not the way to address this lol

#

I only have m.2 drives lol

next wing

yes great suggestion just make wizard invis totally dog on rogues version, the stealth class

Why don't you like the suggestion?

mossy ruin

hide works better then invis already, and I think they're likely to add see invis spell as well.

jagged thunder
#

imagine being so hurt you @ a warden

glacial bridge
#

if you try to use logic Wizards should just be gods of everything because they are magical and others arent.

rogues being a stealth class is definitely more relevant than the wizard having superhuman abilities

Main character syndrome kicking in for wizard

glacial bridge
#

I'm about to be Jon Irenicus strolling the hallways. 6'4" Jacked to the gills. snap my finger and you explode

verbal marsh

Main thing I want them to change about 'Hide' skill is have the cooldown begin on skill usage rather then upon exiting stealth.

cosmic cave
#

Yeah and then rogue gets 2 weAkpoint attacks each with 50% weapon modifier

verbal marsh
#

Should be able to hide, wait 40 seconds, cooldown in 10 seconds, and re-hide.

jagged thunder
#

barb should be able to grab players like kratos and pull them in half

lucid root

Does hide work anywhere? Even direct light?

cosmic cave

Because you guys really want to experience rogues 2 tapping people without even being seen lmaooo

You guys are criticizing the suggestion because of...balancing. That's why it doesn't make sense to be discussing it at this point.

New suggestion; Add defication, players who spend too long in the dark eventually need to use a corner and the sounds they make can be heard 2 rooms away.

I can hear you guys 2 rooms away.

agile condor

Seriously, post your idea in here, see what people think. It's not hard

lucid root
#

I have an interesting idea, probably stupid . Secret stashes you can find and place things in inside the dungeons, like a loose brick that highlights. It's always a different spot each game so you won't always find it. Call it a "dead man's stash"

cosmic cave
#

Lmao if i was a dev i wouldnt even be looking at these channels

only if I can rob your stash

Hmm...not sure about that part, I think it just wouldn't highlight for other players

sonic pendant

stashes like tarkov that are just discreet, harder to see lootable chests would be cool, but i can't imagine ever wanting to remove something from my inventory only to have to go retrieve it later

cosmic cave
#

Nobody is stashing anything in a dungeon lol its either going with them or getting thrown down

lucid root
#

Wait for someone to loot from their dead man's stash and then kill them?

sonic pendant
agile condor

If you're talking about a stash people can loot, sure... isn't that just another type of chest?

I just want lv1 dg to be a city with guards and pvp is difficult unless you manage to drag someone into an alley to kill.

The difference is you're just putting stuff in it for another match since it's persistent
