magic power bonus

[split wadi]

I find most people playing goblin caves are all interested in fighting over bosses where ruins you tend to find a wide range of different types of players

[hoary obsidian]

i wanna play but i don't wanna support SDF anymore 😦 im playing the mobile game but meh

[split wadi]

Technically that's krafton now

Tbh just do whatever you find fun, dude :)

[sweet crow]

Onetapher (barb) is teaming in HR (solos) in full uniques rough

[warm halo]

do quest also restart when semiwipe?

[dense perch]

Wth is #graysuns-plate ? Is he serving us the sdf‘s shit?

[fluid lily]

We have more new useless channels than good content added and kept in the game

[zinc sparrow]

Do you want to see what is on the plate today? 🤔

[fluid lily]

Let me take a guess, it's the venting to Jay from toddfather's video

[crude sail]

is solo duos on the plate?

[clear cedar]

content? (That is not something overecycled like circle)

[rigid needle]

i guess

[zinc sparrow]

I wouldn't show you anything you have seen before

[sullen heart]

I just watched Todd's video about DND and Jay, I've never seen a company self sabatoge so hard. Kinda hope they fail now not gonna lie.

[clear cedar]

[zinc sparrow]

You can talk about that kind of stuff in #the-tavern.
Not here, thank you 👍

[fluid lily]

Saw it too yesterday, they are in a class of their own

[sullen heart]

ok, ill take my opinion elsewhere.

[main bison]

graysun when will we get freak n freaker

[main bison]

show us the plate

[fluid lily]

Yeah, then call it balance

[zinc sparrow]

Okay

[crude sail]

I don’t wanna be rude but instead of trying to create suspense in here could you just go and do it already

[formal nova]

yeah what is this lmao

[barren path]

my message got deleted because i leaked the method (senior game designer method)

[fluid lily]

It's community engagement, only a true community manager understands this

[hybrid vapor]

👀

[formal nova]

Yes they are definitely in position to do this shit rn lol

[buoyant junco]

its an empty plate without solos and duos

[wanton otter]

it's up to the dev to make something someone is willing to even play

[fluid lily]

Are you not entertained, on the hook? Cmon... it works

[weary herald]

What is this new gear gonna be 1 roll on every quality item of non multiplier value?

[barren path]

removing solo and duo from a full plate is like getting steak and potatos but you can only eat the potato

[formal nova]

I am annoyed they trying to create this suspense when new content is due for so long and they already teased so much stuff they never finished

[lofty hemlock]

all of the content they produce is lame and uninspired. just bring back solos

[hybrid vapor]

Ah, I sea.

[formal nova]

Well I saw pic of the map before

[buoyant junco]

ahhh wow looks like a snapshot from chivalry lol

[fluid lily]

Me too

[formal nova]

this is nothing new lmao, different angle of what we saw already maybe

[simple jacinth]

theres always hr solos if you feel like getting clapped by a giga chad with a fulgor

[buoyant junco]

@zinc sparrow ill sell you my left pinky toe for normal solos and duos to return

[formal nova]

also who cares about new map

[buoyant junco]

i want more funny emotes tbh

[hybrid vapor]

Does the druid get a new water animal to turn into?

[formal nova]

I want fixed game

[fluid lily]

New map same shotgun ranger

[buoyant junco]

LMAO crocodile of despair

[simple jacinth]

hopefully a sea cucumber or something usless x

[buoyant junco]

considering sdf plays druid we def getting a great white shark form

[hybrid vapor]

a frog instead of rat form

[fluid lily]

A pig form instead of bear form

[wide reef]

King bean flicker has spoken

[hybrid vapor]

touching the toxic frog does the wisp effect without taking sound

[buoyant junco]

a beaver could be cool

[open hound]

I need a duck form

[wide reef]

Who would have relations with me (89 year old woman only)

[open hound]

Ironmace just doesnt give a duck

[wide reef]

Iron mace should supply me with cougars

I mean the animals

[fluid lily]

Best we can do is female fighter that is a man irl

[blazing monolith]

I'm going to sell it to you like a cosmetic

[wide reef]

I'm somewhat of a bottom feeder

[open hound]

I will buy it even though I dont play druid.

[fluid lily]

Arapaima form

[crude sail]

#graysuns-plate message not gonna lie this is extremely underwhelming just looks like ice caverns but not frozen there’s even harpy all the way in the back just more ctrl c ctrl v again @zinc sparrow I really hope there’s more than that

[fluid lily]

Bro why are there harpies everywhere xDD

[open hound]

bet you falling in the water = instadeath.

[barren siren]

Cosmetic quests are so dumb, IM really makes it so grindy so that you just buy it next season

Whatever you could mean

[fluid lily]

Gyarados druid form for this map cmon

[subtle heart]

gam crasch?

[fluid lily]

For the water map I expected more moss/dark green theme, it looks too bright as if someone is doing the cleaning and maintenance of those structures

[main bison]

yeah they have to rebrand @fluid lily the new name will be Bright and Brighter

graysun put a dog with some drip on the map as a tribute to me, or make a seahorse enemy

[zinc sparrow]

We've only shared a tiny portion, more will come

[open hound]

Is falling in the water instadeath like icecaves?

Also duck skin for druid's chicken, when?

[fair belfry]

is there gonna be new mobs and new bosses? and artifacts?

[zinc sparrow]

Yes, can't wait to share!

[fair belfry]

really

[maiden mist]

Why isn’t the arena that’s open now artifact arenas? It’s gonna semi wipe anyways

[fair belfry]

are there gonna be a new class or nerf sorc dmg XD

[maiden mist]

Would be awesome if we get to play around with them before next week : (

[median anvil]

where can we seen the water map?

[boreal island]

Are there any new things or ideas you guys got while making water map that you think can be added to existing maps as well?

[fluid lily]

Give me paladin that uses crystal sword and has a skill that makes it bigger temporary like skeleton warlord, now we talking

[fair belfry]

nah im waiting for like a necromancer that can summon 5 mobs and fight for u

[main bison]

take them into real game!

[dapper wolf]

guys is the new map comming season 7 ?

[boreal island]

think thats the plan yeah

[dapper wolf]

nice

[fluid lily]

I think yes because of the semi wipe, but it could be 8

[boreal island]

i think semi wipe won't have it, but the real season after will

[fair belfry]

but ig they need to make a mob named water crawlers

[dapper wolf]

i hope not longer i am hyped for new map this

[maiden mist]

We casual players spend our entire gameplay time farming barely one artifact, we’re already not good compared to the die hard fans, last thing we want is to die immediately and lose our artifact that took us weeks to farm : (

[fluid lily]

Butcher's bridge is back for arams tho, you have some pirate content

[acoustic vector]

alla is gei

[main bison]

as a casual player why would u grind the whole wipe to purchase just one artifact instead of multiple juicer kits to earn them, im a casual player i have 113 hours on the game but i have 2 artifacts from killing players that dont play well, are u a pve player only?

[fair belfry]

i love that dark and darker gets better each wipe

[dapper wolf]

man i want my solo to stay 😦

[fair belfry]

yeah

[dapper wolf]

or woman sry

[fluid lily]

What if non binary?

[exotic ermine]

felt

[fair belfry]

the thing is im pretty hyped for this update but please bring back solo duo trio teams on normals

[dapper wolf]

O.o

[maiden mist]

No, I’m not just a pve player. I farmed artifact only because it’s like the dream item to get. Farming towards it feels a lot more steady than hoping to run into someone holding one, and even furthermore killing them.
Also that’s why I would fear to take them in non arenas, I know I don’t play well, bringing it in would just feel like I wasted weeks of farming lol

[median anvil]

They're getting rid of trios next wipe. They found that trios was too unbalanced.

[fair belfry]

YESS!!!

Yo herst wanna duo?

[main bison]

you did waste weeks if you don’t plan to run it that’s massive gear fear. Take it in to adventure get a good kit and go lose the gear fear

[median anvil]

I can't sorry. Just had a semi wipe, gotta clean things up.

[fair belfry]

i lost my soul scraprer to an unbalanced rogue with deathbloom

full bis 1 tapped from behind

[maiden mist]

It’s not really just fear, but rather I KNOW I’m gonna lose it.
I am probably only going to bring it in normal dungeon on the last day before wipe, if artifact arena exists at least we get to have a few days of fun where we can play as aggressively as we’d like.

[exotic ermine]

arena literally completely dead rn

[hot walrus]

no shame in it, i don't bring my artifacts into pvp either. gave 2 of them to my bestfriend this wipe so he could trade up though

[fair belfry]

i did arena today only full bis rat rogue's

[merry jay]

FIX THE GAME OR IM UNINSTALLING RIGHT NOW

[exotic ermine]

im full bis cleric im ok with it

[fair belfry]

chill they are working on the game

[maiden mist]

I think you’re having way too high of a bar for what you consider casual.

[fair belfry]

im in game rn almost died to ai .

[maiden mist]

Yeah I only played with it in pve, and was really hoping they would open artifact arenas just a few days before wipe

[main bison]

How many hours do you consider casual?

[gray valley]

w sdf

[gray valley]

under 2k

[fair belfry]

doge wana party or smt?

[maiden mist]

It’s not about hours, you could be really good with just 113 hours, but not everyone does

[main bison]

what do you consider casual then

[fair belfry]

im useless ingame im working on it im on 142 hours and can play wiz pretty good

[stiff oasis]

Will we have the water map next wipe?

[maiden mist]

Thanks, but I think I’ll skip for now. Gonna probably take a break for a few days and go in last few days before wipe lol

[merry jay]

2 YEARS

[fair belfry]

alright

[fluid lily]

We need leprechaun map, where harpies carry them on their claws and they throw bombs at us

[maiden mist]

Mostly going in squire lobbies. Every once in a while having enough gear to do high rollers, and then losing the gear in 1-2 games. Rinse and repeat.
If you can kill people with artifacts, I wouldn’t consider you casual

[fair belfry]

by the way they should add like a artifact windlass or crossbow

[main bison]

I normally do a squire run into a high roller as my kit and take pieces that sell out as normal and build up a real kit, but I think your confusing casual with bad

[fair belfry]

i got much ideas for a name for windlass like wind crusher XD

[maiden mist]

Fine I’m bad

[main bison]

I’m not trying to call you bad or things I’m just saying, I started and watched ryan6days guide for pve

after you take the info from all the expanding videos on this game you will instantly not worry about anything. But FOMO gear fear is real

the only PVE that gives me trouble is the axe skele because it feels broken

[maiden mist]

My point of not bringing artifacts in still stands though, cause it’s difficult for me to acquire, I am certain I can’t get another one if I lose it.
I’d rather keep it as a reminder for myself that if I practice more and get good enough I can use it better

[fair belfry]

doge im ingame and i am littarly breaking peoples ears cuz they were tryna kill me

[main bison]

I think practicing the weapon type of the artifact would do you a lot more justice

[smoky jetty]

what is the drop chance for artifacts? killed lich 50+ times yet no artifact dafuq

[fair belfry]

viper its just based luck

[smoky jetty]

If you talking about luck, I ran mostly 200+ luck on my kit combined with a greater pot of luck and at this point I doubt that it does anything

[fair belfry]

maybe bring luck pots

I get almost an artifact every game from doing pvp and doing ghost

[subtle heart]

what luck are you running pre pot

[smoky jetty]

cap

[fair belfry]

nah i parry em with warlock curse of weakness curse of pain then they die

[sweet crow]

hell yeah, just killed a full unique/legendary druid to get my last AP for demigod on rogue man had purple protection pots and everything was a 110% no lifer

[fair belfry]

lizard wanna run normal run? rn

[fair belfry]

grats

[sweet crow]

I'm down edit: which party chat?

[fair belfry]

i just talk ingame

trio party 46? and whats ur user

im in trio party 46

[austere ingot]

What’s up with the #graysuns-plate thing is that a teaser or something for a new map?

[surreal aspen]

if you add this map without removing or restricting others this game is beyond cooked

[fluid lily]

I'd like someone from IM to clarify if PvE is going to be removed or not, this game is already at 29% positive reviews I don't think we need more shadiness.

[cosmic swan]

"We have huge issues with the amount of queue in our game, let's add a new map who's going to add a couple more queue!"

[subtle heart]

dw we're never getting that water map lmao

[cosmic swan]

We'll they just started to tease it and called it would release next wipe (not semi wipe) if i'm right. But they did that for the past two wipe so

[subtle heart]

they always say the same shit, thats why the "fix" the same things every patch, theyre never fixed

[cosmic swan]

And anyway, all the time spent on this new map could have been used to make more usefull content. Such as improving the gameplay loop by adding new thing to do in and outside of the dungeon, such as new point of interest (that would solve so many issues in the game)

[fluid lily]

The cockatrice still making sounds after death, for example

[subtle heart]

infinite examples my brother lmaooo, new POI would be awesome too I agree

[grand swallow]

Prego gob

[cosmic swan]

And not that hard to do there's some easy exemple :

• The Expressman : Put him in a random room in the dungeon and your need to go there to give him stuff to extract.
• A forge : It does the same thing that the Goldsmith but you can get the max roll of a stat and it cost only the gem (That mean you need to bring your gear and gem in the dungeon and take the risk to lose it)
• A gem Hoard: Like a gold Hoard but with a higher gem drop rate, put them only behind the Key room so people actually use them

[subtle heart]

i also think all key rooms should be mandatory spawns

[cosmic swan]

We also need some PvP point of interest. Easy stuff, like a room with an unlimited res shrine, or a mini arena that close when 2 team enter so they don't get third party

[subtle heart]

i love the idea of mini arena room too, THUINDERDOME

stop forcing everyone to play like PVPers, but give PVPers something as a lil treat

[median anvil]

lol, or how about the glitched dummies that show wildly low damage numbers. No matter how many patch they implement those will never be fixed. lol like how hard could that be?

[cosmic swan]

That exactly

[gritty barn]

why is gen chat so dumb

[gritty barn]

stop making people play like pvpers in a pvp game. real and true statement bro.

[formal nova]

Or maybe rework all the useless perks, that is what I Wish for the most, also Innate abilites for every class, Facets like in Dota or talent tree.

[cosmic swan]

That would be nice too, at least better than a new map

[subtle heart]

like I know you're stupid, but can you at least acknowledge the clear data showing PVE mode being the most popular mode by FAR

[cosmic swan]

PvPvE* (So ye, people shouldn't be FORCED to PvP but incentivize to go in special module on the map made for them to do so)

[median anvil]

SDF just announced they're removing trios next wipe. The game is just going to be pve from now on.

[formal nova]

Everything is better then new map. New map is that last content thing we need rn. It is just another space to do nothing, you can have 100 maps to do nothing and game would still suck

[median anvil]

agreed

[cosmic swan]

⬆️ I've been saying that for like a year now

[formal nova]

I would be happy with single map in the game if there is something to do

[stark radish]

hey, atleast it isnt a "bugfix" like the usual crap

[formal nova]

So much wasted resources for map that is gonna add dozen of new problems and need maintenance for some time

[stark radish]

true that, but atleast it isnt like the still broken "bugfixes" they do

[open hound]

People hype level : crypts.

At release it will gain traction like : frost caverns.

[subtle heart]

not the point bro bro

[formal nova]

I agree but I would rather fixing of SERIOUS issues than new map

[stark radish]

agreed, but something fresh is also nice.

[fluid lily]

New perks anti CC would be nice

[subtle heart]

think most would argue, fixing the basic shit is still better

[formal nova]

I mean adding another shit on pile of shit doesn't make it anything than pile of shit

[cloud ice]

As someone from EU, it was always hard for me to understand American culture. What was fascinating for me is that they like bragging about their freedom which was weird for me, because I didn't think that I have any less freedom than them. I always thought What is the difference! However after this game I finally understand it. NA is just so fucking free.

[subtle heart]

what does this mean? I live in EU, I am from NA

[fluid lily]

I have freedom.

[subtle heart]

I have loads more freedom since moving to EU

[fluid lily]

My friend found freedom by moving to Brasil

[subtle heart]

I feel like bro ran in here, we were discussing game, he screamed SQUIRREL and left

[fluid lily]

He wanted to feel free for a bit

[formal nova]

lmao

[subtle heart]

I guess? LOL

[formal nova]

It is just sad guys. There is so much potential in this game but they fumbling it so hard.

[fluid lily]

It's a problem of dev ego and misconception of what made the game great, it can't really be stopped unless the people in the team speak up

[median anvil]

I think SDF is right in removing shoes in the next patch, it's really going to improve things.

[formal nova]

Yes unfortunately. This is first game I started playing after playing DotA for 15 years. I love it so much and it breaks my heart seeing this. First game that gave me that dopamine rush I felt only on DotA before.

[fluid lily]

I've never played dota but before this I was playing lol. I was sucked into the medieval fantasy slowly even tho extraction games weren't my thing until then. It was indeed sad to see this game die slowly by becoming CS:GO medieval edition

[clear cedar]

i wish we could do something about it

maybe communicating with some of the devs

that wants good of this game

[fluid lily]

No, you can't really because all that could've been important has been done already unsuccessfully (steam reviews, reddit threads, discord discussions). I'm familiar with the situation as I work in consultancy/continuous improvement so I'm basically paid to deal with these kind of things. The only one trying to do anything about this is Terry (who I see as prob the manager trying to save the business - not the game), while sdf is the operator who has 40yo work experience refusing to change and would rather have the business die for his experiences and needs to be talked out by the manager out of it.

all that could've been important has been done already unsuccessfully - by this I mean, as outsiders, not part of the management team/dev team. It's something that only they can work out but from all the leaks it seems that nobody speaks up about the bad decision making and lack of accountability.

[formal nova]

I was big gamer 20 years ago playing everything. Then I discovered DotA and I stopped playing everything else. Year ago I tried Dark and stopped playing DotA xD

That is why it makes me so sad. I love this game

[hardy dawn]

can someone help me? what is motions in the customize tab?

[formal nova]

Resting Emotes

[fluid lily]

20 years ago I was catching butterflies outside, I didn't even have a phone xD

[formal nova]

I did too when not playing xD

I was a kid back then but already a gamer

[fluid lily]

I see, I was too little back then. All I remember is that metin2 was big hype around me

[formal nova]

Oh yea, played Metin for some time too

[full juniper]

anyone getting this issue where you extract with loot when you get to the summery it says zero value then in menu theres no loot in you inv

[fluid lily]

Their downfall was being greedy af too, giving IM a run for their money

[formal nova]

I was too little to understand that back then

[fluid lily]

I have an issue where I extract with the loot, get blackscreen and not getting my AP, it's 1 in 5 games maybe but I keep the loot

[full juniper]

yeah you did mention this yestoday im not getting that issue luckly but i extact with loot and theres nothing in my inv when i get to menu the summary screen says ive looted this ie items accieve 18 value of items 0

[fluid lily]

Ohhh, it was you, I remember someone mentioned this I just wasn't sure xD

[full juniper]

yeah im not sure what i can do im just not getting anything

[fluid lily]

Except reporting this under the report a bug and tagging someone from the team here, I'm not sure what else you can do

[mossy wing]

#graysuns-plate message Now this, this is BiS

[formal nova]

Is it though

[surreal aspen]

the new map will certainly save the game

[cosmic swan]

for sure xD

[hollow moss]

That’s the sole reason people are quitting smh frfr

[smoky jetty]

ngl Id like the underwater map especially since its summer right now, kinda matches

[oak topaz]

If the devs mentality stays the same nothing can save this game

[surreal aspen]

i wonder which color of the skeletons will be there (new monsters). Probably green

[fluid lily]

You can already see it, in seasonal rewards

[smoky jetty]

this shiit tuff ... if this the vibe and look of the new map I am actually hyped ... no troll

whoever was involved in the map layouting and design needs a raise and needs to get half the cut of sdf money added on top of that since that map designer was clearly cookin 5 star menu and not that sdf fastfood

[fluid lily]

Only small Otto can save this game, with a pre game lobby without checking gear.

[rapid vine]

Nah, i dont want otto. I want a cute cat named Atta.

[fluid lily]

That's the next dlc

[smoky jetty]

I want to dive in the underwater map, thats all I am asking for

[rapid vine]

Actually I want this instead of Otto.

[fluid lily]

You probably can, but there will be zones like in ice cave where the water will be too deep so you fall in the Abyss. No swimming, just normal walking tho.

[rapid vine]

aw.. I just saw swimming animation in a leak video.

[dapper wolf]

where i can find the leak video man

[fluid lily]

I hope you're right but I don't have high hopes for any coming content

[rapid vine]

true

[rapid vine]

dunno, it's somewhere under Ryan6DaysaWeek youtube channel.

[dapper wolf]

thanks i go look

[hushed patrol]

Player count? Im at work

[fluid lily]

6.9k In 5.5k lobby

[hushed patrol]

Not that dead yet

[fluid lily]

No, the PvE mode still carries it hard for now

[sweet oyster]

revert to patch 0 and start over at this point

[clear cedar]

with rust game dev team in charge

[frosty shoal]

Is it just me or does dark and darker cause BSOD sometimes, I mean rn I cant even enter the game because of tvk.sys is causing it, I think its the anticheat or something

[clear cedar]

it got a really janky anti cheat

[fluid lily]

Do you guys like the golden cloak?

[rapid vine]

what golden cloak?

[vast kayak]

the OG golden cloak was lit. +3 all

[north laurel]

Where can i get rubysilver ore?

[fluid lily]

The one that you can craft. @vast kayak Yeah I remember, the issue I have with it now is the 1 dex there

[rapid vine]

[fluid lily]

Ruins of the forgotten castle

[north laurel]

Can i find them on adventure mode?

[fluid lily]

Yes but you only get 1 ore per deposit

[north laurel]

Oh ok, thanks

[fluid lily]

Yesterday it was 50 gold in market, I was about to suggest buying it but now it's 82, definitely too much.

[smoky jetty]

if it will be like that one underwater passage in goblin caves where u walk super slow, it would be awful

[smoky jetty]

link it please

[fluid lily]

Yep, people forget that we already have underwater zones in the game. In the ruins of the forgotten castle there is a pretty big one where there are blue stairs below, Ice caves where the frostwalkers are, the goblin caves mentioned. Those are not exactly shallow waters, that's why my hopes aren't high for swimming.

[rapid vine]

dunno, it's somewhere under Ryan6DaysaWeek youtube channel. It was old videos.

[smoky jetty]

You refer to his 4 month old video. I have already seen it and there is no swimming animation being leaked, at least not visualized

[cosmic swan]

They talked about swimming and if I'm right there is file of swimming animation in the game file

[smoky jetty]

can we actually drown in water?

[fluid lily]

They talk a lot, about many things fishing, quivers, swimming, new perks, new classes, new game modes, balance. It just sounds like fairytale truth be told

[rapid vine]

They showed the swimming animation like the legs are moving like a swimming. But maybe my memory got reconstructed

[subtle heart]

yeah, by the drawbridges lmao

[subtle heart]

they did at least SAY there would be swimming... then they showed ladders underwater....

[smoky jetty]

I mean you live deep in the abyss of the sea, so you prolly know better than us

[subtle heart]

periodT

[fluid lily]

Not in the water...

[smoky jetty]

I would appreciate a swimming system, but wonder how its compatible with combat tho

[subtle heart]

it just isnt LOL

[smoky jetty]

people could just go there if low hp and chill there ... could cause problems pvp wise

[subtle heart]

😈

[fluid lily]

Fireballs underwater is the new techinque, new perk for wizard to merge spells like sorcerer when he is underwater

[smoky jetty]

that makes totally sense because fire burns well underwater

[subtle heart]

steam bath?

[smoky jetty]

lightning should deal doubled damage underwater tho, that would be immersive and logical ngl

[subtle heart]

did anyone else here ever try playing Spellbreak?

[fluid lily]

Ranger arrows ignoring the laws of physics underwater too even tho only crossbows should work there

[subtle heart]

or like massive AOE damage everywhere its wet lmao (toaster in the bathtub meta)

[smoky jetty]

Druid might be bis now because the treant is supposed to be stronger if summoned underwater ... its no joke its actually like that but was very nieche due the lack of underwater segments

I wonder how well bear will swim tho 😂

[fluid lily]

Sorcerer new DLC will be use lighting storm underwater and change the environment to become a MAELSTROM. Am I hired?

[smoky jetty]

But all jokes aside, I like that they go into such a tricky direction and test a new type of map with such mechanics, its def not the easy way and shows effort and if they really bring that out they would gain back my respect

[slow cape]

Anyone know if this is the last week for religion

[raw stone]

had a looooong break from this game. Still any good ?

[clear cedar]

29% positive stream review

[raw stone]

Dang thats not good xD i heard something about they deleted solo's, duo's?

[clear cedar]

deleted from normals now planned to be from hr

[raw stone]

Hmm okay ill give it go and see for myself 😄 ty dude

[clear cedar]

don't have high expecations

[soft ibex]

do we lose all the religion donation rewards too? or will they be reclaimable?

[raw stone]

Normally the general chat is full off players whining and crying i dont see anyone typing right now xD so i think the game is at a shit state atm ppl just gave up xD

[clear cedar]

it's like patch 69 but people used to it

[fluid lily]

The skeleton skin you will keep, that I can tell you for sure

[clear cedar]

skins and blue/red shards

[icy path]

sorry for asking didnt play i a bit. did they remove true phys damage ?

[leaden lion]

no they didnt

[fluid lily]

No

[icy path]

ok thx

[teal tulip]

that sucks, i reinstalled the game a week ago, im having fun but second i look at discord everyone is complainig, idk wtf did they do but i hope the game doesnt die lol

[frosty shoal]

I cant enter the game no more because of the tvk.sys driver of the anticheat I have no idea what to do , and this game has been BSOD my pc lately too now I cant even enter

[boreal flame]

Some people just need to grow up and self reflect more

[distant ore]

FKING FIX THE CLASS BARBARIAN!!!!!!!!!!! ITS BROKEN SHT ASS GAME, JUST CHECK STATISTIC ALMOST EVERYONE PLAYS THAT CLASS BECAUSE ITS UNBALANCED AS IT IS!!!!!!!!

[runic phoenix]

guys does goblin merchant just dont work?

[boreal flame]

Devs have been recieving harrassment for 2 weeks and it's setting back updates because toxic fans can't cool down. Let devs do their job in peace and show more respect, game is doing great

[lusty finch]

hopesworry is blatantly esping

[teal tulip]

that sucks, if they are not happy just play something else instead of harrasing the devs, thats wild

[boreal flame]

btw hate speech isnt free speech. This isn't trying to criticize and work with IronMace to fix things. This is a hate campaign based off wicked and false lies

[tidal blaze]

Its still free

[boreal flame]

Nope, Hate speech is not free speech, period. Do better than find ways to demean others

[fluid lily]

Idk why it's not obvious troll but I'll let you know you are getting baited and trolled by the furry

[tidal blaze]

Heh well you will learn one way or another its okay champ

[teal tulip]

huh??

[boreal flame]

game is doing better than ever

What happened to SDF's Kitchen?

[fluid lily]

He has a history of rage baiting in chat and deceivingly spitting white knight propaganda to annoy people here around, take what he says with a bag of salt, not a grain

[tidal blaze]

When several youtubers from community are leaving and exposing games/devs not to mention community isnt happy and pop been dropping…. Sure its doing better in one way of thinking

[runic phoenix]

goblin merchant doesnt work on highroller anymore??

[blissful patio]

What do you guys think about introducing solos and duos in normal for Legendary users only? I am sure that consumer research would show a lot of people would value Legendary higher, increasing their willingness to buy the status. It might be outside the current vision of the game, but I'm extremely sure this would increase sales in a noticeable way. This would also thin the communication gap between devs and community, that right now is hurting player count (and sales) quite a bit. You guys are a company, and need to sell. Be smart about it. Make the community happy and make some money while at it...

[clear cedar]

like you

[teal tulip]

''white knight propaganda'' wtf lol

[fluid lily]

You can see it live right now, just spectate it

[boreal flame]

It's already been proven a week ago these youtubers collaberated together to attack ironmace and spread fake news and info around the game. NotLikethem has sent their toxic troll base here to divide and sew division in the community

[clear cedar]

please go to sleep or sm

[tidal blaze]

Its not just notlikethem anymore like you keep spouting

[teal tulip]

in the end its just a game, instead of moving on people are stuck here complainin and its funny to see

[boreal flame]

These youtubers are pushing out "evidence" with nothing to back their claims, They just send people here to spam their videos for clicks and clout

[barren path]

copium

[tidal blaze]

Have you watched them at all?

[fluid lily]

I saw the new guy around flair, Idc which side of this you're on I just wanted you not to get trolled for free

[icy path]

cant you gem true phys?

[barren path]

no he hasnt hes talking out of his ass

[fluid lily]

You can, with red gem

[boreal flame]

SDF and Graysun have done everything to deliver and now we are witnessing innocent people pay the toll for campaigns based off deception and clout gain

[icy path]

doesnt show up for me

[teal tulip]

dont worry, im on no ones side, im just trying to enjoy gaming, its just funny to see everytime i look at that discord its people complaining about the state of the game, if you aint happy just leave lol

[tidal blaze]

Oh I know im trying get him tripping over his logic, im sitting in traffic ( as a passenger) trying to pass time

[fluid lily]

It may be that you already have a bonus from that group, additional phys or additional magic or it's not on the right item (rings, gloves etc)

[boreal flame]

SDF kitchen had great updates and the trolls won by lying and saying nasty things to the poor man, Now it's gone. thanks guys

[icy path]

ok thanks

[tidal blaze]

You should make a video exposing these trolls

[barren path]

he doesnt check anything himself he just assumes this guy is right i mean what can you do

[lusty finch]

The amount of players with ESP is disgusting

[tidal blaze]

Real

[boreal flame]

I have thought about it, I might. Steam is stepping in right before next wipe happens to remove the fake negative review bomb.

[barren path]

fake review bomb? people made negative reviews because devs are clueless

[vernal arch]

bruh HR trios forgotten castle is just non existent today huh

[boreal flame]

I have already exposed multiple trolls in the chat and got them removed for good. I speak to a few developers to help out the community

[tidal blaze]

Probably be better option to reach out a lotta folk with a video

[barren path]

do you read sdf's kitchen at all or no?

[surreal aspen]

its not gone

[fluid lily]

As sad as it is, this furry troll is the only content we get from Iron Mace

[tidal blaze]

Yeah you show em bud

[barren path]

ah hes a furry my bad, mental disease

[static frost]

Yea unfortunately dudes opinion holds 0 weight

[barren path]

it did kinda untill i clicked on his discord profile

[tidal blaze]

Probably gonna get wardens giving you a warning here soon if I assume I know what he is doing

[boreal flame]

Made another report, Dnd chat is for everyone.

[barren path]

never said it isnt, just pointing out your mental disease

[boreal flame]

There are bigger problems in the world right now than costumes and game updates @barren path People are being targetered, arrested and deported for the color of their skin, let's do better as people and put our anger and frustration into protecting others

[fluid lily]

xD

[clear cedar]

you can help the cause by not forming an opinion

[tidal blaze]

Please no po litical talk in game discussion

[barren path]

If there are bigger problems than costumes then why are you a furry? Seems counter-productive

[fluid lily]

xDDDD

[teal tulip]

SHEEESH

[clear cedar]

you are against your vision lycan

[boreal flame]

Being able to cosplay and perform for the community is a great thing and makes people's day! This is what we need more of to put smiles on people again

Once again, trolls don't even have a viable response

[barren path]

im speechless thats why

[boreal flame]

It's time to reflect and think my friend

[tidal blaze]

🤚 um excuse me sirs but this is game discussion

[barren path]

btw, who is getting "targeted, arrested, and deported" for the color of their skin

[teal tulip]

they cant help themselves..

[rustic laurel]

Holy piss servers

[tidal blaze]

I know its fun to watch

[boreal flame]

Well i can't mention too much more, but they start with I and they need to stop and do better to. They are "Federal agents"

[barren path]

surely yyoure not talking about the millions of mexicans illegaly crossing the border to USA

[teal tulip]

fun and sad lmao

[boreal flame]

Not illegal to be human, and not engaging in this, I reported you to mods for your racial comment

[clear cedar]

they are not the problem, they have citizenship

[fluid lily]

But I like mexicans...

Bad faith conversations get you nowhere...

[dim wind]

My Disappointment with the Game's Progress
To be honest, from the moment I started playing this game, I only ever found three dungeons. I initially thought, "Only three dungeons? That must be because the game is still in beta." I genuinely expected many, many more maps to be added in the future, as the core of this game is all about dungeon exploration.

However, after a full year, those same three dungeons are still all there are. Not a single new dungeon has been added. I was expecting at least one new dungeon monthly, or at the very least, every season.

Currently, the developers are keeping players busy with character and item changes, but all this really does is distract us from the truth: there's nothing new. The game still only has three dungeons, and it's become incredibly boring. Who wants to spend their time repeatedly playing the same dungeons? Where's the fun of discovering new ones? What exactly has the game's management been doing all this time?

[barren path]

so if someone enters your house you have to call the police and they get arrested but if they cross the border illegaly were supposed to let them be ?

[static frost]

How are you gonna bring up a topic then go cry to the mods? Soft.. just soft

[storm reef]

quick question. IS there any reason specific why barbs are the fastest strongest and most defenseive class in norms?

[boreal flame]

Devs are facing harrassment because of a fake hate campaign led by youtubers trying to get clicks. Don't worry really good update on the way from IronMace

[tidal blaze]

They got buffed not too long ago

[clear cedar]

stop talking to him

[fluid lily]

I'd say that's ranger or sorcerer, barb is up there but 3rd place

[teal tulip]

i would argue that, i keep getting 2-3 shot as a barb

[boreal flame]

The problem lies when it's bad faith and hate speech

[storm reef]

well barbs 1 shot so 2-3 shots is 200-300% better then everyone else

[clear cedar]

you are giving him more material to rage bait

[teal tulip]

wtf 1 shot? never had that happens when i play barb, i always need to hit em like 3 times

[boreal flame]

Just because someone enters your home doesn't give you the right to shoot them or call the police, this is literally a violent, brutish way of thinking.

[storm reef]

sure when you use a torch it will prob take like 3 hits

[teal tulip]

im not using a torch?

[barren path]

hahahha what are you saying

[static frost]

As long as they say whose a good boy in the process huh?

[minor sequoia]

When i play barb im not 1 shotting people because I stack more vigor/dex and movement speed so I can engage and disengage at will so 2-3 may e four if I land body shots is normal

[storm reef]

I said in norms. Barbs base stats + perks make them literal gods in norm lobbies

[barren path]

if someone enters your home just let him live in there might as well

[storm reef]

Runs as fast as a rogue. defense of a pl8t fighter. Magic resist of a lock with perks. Can't be knocked back. Debuffs attack damage slows

[teal tulip]

yeah whenever i use rage + slow em down, they dont die in 2 hits

[civic comet]

I agree with this. We ran in to 3x barbs. it was over in 10 sec, we all died instantly

[fluid lily]

If a barbarian kills a sorc or a ranger is a missplay on their side, not barbarian being op. He is strong after the buffs but not as you say.

[static frost]

Yea why else have an extra room right

[tidal blaze]

Give the barb to someone who knows what they are doing they can 1 v 3 in normals. Infact I saw it once

[minor sequoia]

@storm reef I agree with all that but if you know what your doing you can easily counter a barb with whatever your playing some more tedious but doable

[barren path]

sponsor him a green card too

[static frost]

Don't forget to offer them a few beers while you do the paper work

[storm reef]

Im just saying they need to give up something. They can not have the most defenses. The most Mobility. and the most damage

[frosty shoal]

please can someone explain why the anticheat is causing me BSOD ? tvk.sys?!!?!?!

[minor sequoia]

@storm reef very true there's not really a give or take with barbs...I mean you'd think a war maul barb would be slow..nope

[zealous temple]

Farming frozen hearts is impossible on pve lmao no one gives courtesy they could be on their fourth wendigo kill and they still ape the room your clearly working on, its hilarious how thirsty people are in damn pve bro 🤣 making me want to play pvp so i can kill the goblins aping every wendigo triplestack warlock

[fluid lily]

I like to spectate them and see that they don't have enough escapes, too many people go down nowadays

[lusty finch]

Why are 90% of solo hr lobbies warlocks

[zealous temple]

The vision

[static frost]

Easiest class to solo boss

[storm reef]

Prob because they clear mobs fast

[fluid lily]

It's the vision, even PvE should be done from range

[tardy bolt]

broski lets just demolish borders its that easy right there totally wont be a consequence that some people want to stay with their own

[storm reef]

A lot of bosses actually are better to kill with melee even as a lock you would use a lnog sword

[zealous temple]

Its illegal to break laws dunce your the only one mentioning race

[teal tulip]

anyone knows a good site for maps? i looked up the map for the outside dungeon but i think its out of date, need to do some quests outside

[wicked stump]

there's nothing that's not out of date on maps/quests. have to ask here

@glad thunder @zinc sparrow unique/artifact in arenas when?

[teal tulip]

im talking about websites with maps, not the actual quests or map in game

[wicked stump]

nobody is updating those websites anymore cuz there's barely any players left

[teal tulip]

so no then lol

[wicked stump]

Dark and Darker Interactive Map & Dark and Darker Quest Tracker were probably the best but yeah outdated

[rough ridge]

The website guy left so expect delay

[lusty finch]

I have 150x golden teeth saved up but still haven't found how to craft grimsmile rings

[fluid lily]

You craft them at the alchemist after you have the needed affinity

[static frost]

All the modules are there, and what's in them. Just the maps are randomized now so the order shown isn't going to line up in game

[rough ridge]

You sir are a bot. Do quests for the alchemist and you unlock the crafting recipe

[wicked stump]

facts. i would try to use darkanddarkertrackerdotcom

[teal tulip]

says in game theres 7k dungeon and 5k lobbies, how many players is that approximatively?

[wicked stump]

a whole lot less than there used to be

[fluid lily]

10k probably

[rough ridge]

Used to be 10-15k dungeon bro

[teal tulip]

yeah it does suck playing a game that feels empty player wise

[wicked stump]

it feels like an abandoned dead zone. unless you come to discord which is alive with people who don't play anymore and just want to see the pain

[fluid lily]

Is there any way to report those bots in trade? I played for so long but never tried

[teal tulip]

well i'll find another game lol, anyway all i see here is complaining, worse than the tarkov discord

[still cypress]

I can lift a fully grown horse above my head and I can hold my breath for 15 minutes. To settle a wager, I once drank 2 and a half bottles of the strongest rat poison and then ran 10 km while yodeling the russian alphabet backwards. I cant feel pain and can see upto a 100km unaided by lens. I've beaten a man of every race in formal combat including a Turk, a Texan Caucasian, a Nigerian and a very rare salt water Chineez. A medical doctor and 3 priests have written and signed a document confirming I have no soul.

This post is hilarious 😂
rare salt water chineez gave me the rest 😅

Can anyone tell me which merchant gives the resting skin?

[uneven peak]

Yo guys i was afk doing something on my pc when my teammate almost killed me. I killed him before he was able to end me and left. Could i get baned for that?

[wicked stump]

@zinc sparrow @glad thunder I'll write the community a message for you since you're inept.

"Dear valued players, as you probably know IM has recently lost a lawsuit despite it having no basis, and now has to pay a large sum of money. Unfortunately this will inevitably have a negative impact on our schedule for upcoming content releases for DaD. However, rest assured we are dedicated to standing with our player base and holding the line. Please bear with us and we will keep you as updated as possible during these hard times and get through it together. As we will not be able to release all of the content on the schedule originally planned, we will be polling our player base for which content is more import to them and prioritizing that. As always, we appreciate your continued support!"

[arctic laurel]

That is exactly what i just said my friend.

[boreal flame]

Grow up and reflect more on how you treat others, the majority of the community stands with the devs so drop the hate. The reason Graysun and SDF are getting this much criticism was based off false info to begin with

[fluid lily]

I know, this chat is quite dead anyways

[boreal flame]

Mid season going to start soon and a huge player spike will happen

[median holly]

Why people keep writing lies about Iron Mace losing the suit?
The Judge cleared them in all the accusations, the money they "have to pay" is still being challenged in court because they won and it doesn't make sense to pay it.
I know you're mad and hate SDF and the game, but lying won't help you

[fluid lily]

I forgot to @ the Crazy too and get my pringles, mb

[clear cedar]

it being dead could get him banned faster, mod opening game discussion to see ts

[arctic laurel]

They were found guilty of stealing intellectual property where they not? They didnt get a clear win

[median holly]

Yet everyday you're here chatting more than me, i love haters who keep the game alive

[boreal flame]

I think this new update will be the best one 🔥 Good point about the lawsuit, it shows that IronMace does have a good reputation but this time it's with bad actors on youtube trying to get clicks for their lies

[fluid lily]

xDDD

[arctic laurel]

You are either extremely naive and young, or you are deluded. Christ

[median holly]

No, they have been found not guilty, the money they "have to pay up" was because of some insane conclusion that the judge had about even if they didn't do anything wrong it still hurt them (nexon), it's a stupid decision and probably will be tossed out.

[arctic laurel]

IronMace and good reputation does not go hand in hand, they literally STOLE the game

[jagged fog]

u getting paid or what??? xD

[little drift]

any lag fixes for my friend its def not his internet its consisted server lag

[boreal flame]

The facts are that the game is still doing better than ever, Steam is going to remove the fake negative reviews and trolls like you are going to be removed for trying to divide the cool community here

Iron Mace could help us out posting the ruling in somewhere here, so it's easy to debunk people lying, i hate posting links

[thorn ice]

how would "rules" debunk someone from lying though? i just got here so i dont know what the topic is currently about

[wraith wigeon]

Honestly I could deal with this game's updates if they gave barb crossbow, double jump, and curse of pain

[boreal flame]

Why can't you take a step back to self reflect? This is the only language you know and it's very harmful to ones life. you don't need to live with these resentments and aggression towards others.

[fluid lily]

Same if they'd give cleric crystal sword and the ability to increase the range of the sword like the warlord boss

Don't believe everything you read on the internet, the court documents were the real evidence and IM was cleared by a judge and found no wrongdoings from them

[median holly]

This over here is the problem, the medium guy doesn't know the difference between being found guilty, not guilty and being sentenced to pay money.
People think that just because the Judge ordered Iron Mace to pay a insane fine that won't hold up in the appeal means they lost the case.

[lusty finch]

Love having quests that require me to go to a module that doesn't exists, then giving a penalty for leaving the match to reload the modules.

[jagged fog]

u really think u can come up to me with that logic of twisted truth ?? I hope u get paid well

Okay, i'm going to have to stop you there, there was a ruling, IronMace is appealing the decision, that number isn't made up

[clear cedar]

module system is so unfinished

[clear cedar]

[median holly]

We could very well have a nice looking channel in the discord with the Judicial ruling in english and KR, this way people who don't know how the judicial world works could understand things better about the lawsuit

[thorn ice]

did you even stop to consider about the possibility that maybe, JUST maybe @boreal flame just trying to simply be hopeful and positive? theres nothing wrong with that if you arent aware 🙂 its ok to be optimistic and such, whats not ok though is to pull the trigger on a person who means no harm in anyway. if you dont have anything positive to add to a subject of conversation why would you even say anything at all

[barren path]

can you shorten his yappery i cant be asked to read it

[jagged fog]

It takes a special kind of creativity to build a game on stolen Nexon data, get sued and then pretend the whole thing was part of some grand master plan.
Over $5.9 million in damages? Oh well, just a small price to pay when you never intended to create a second functional game anyway.

The truth is: Dark and Darker would never have existed without the groundwork laid by Nexon's Project P3. Ironmace grabbed a ready-made recipe, half-cooked the dish, sold it—and now? Well, if you never learned to cook, the buffet doesn’t last long.

[fluid lily]

He tries to be defensive like belly rub lycan but edgy

[barren path]

they got sentenced but they still can defend the case or something like that

heres my hot take on this.

once you throw it in the trash....it becomes public property :)

[barren path]

i wish it was 100 million

[clear cedar]

being aggresively is not normal

[barren path]

also dont get me started on this belly rub lycan guy again like wtf are you doin pretending ur some telly tubie fookin plushie

[jagged fog]

So the judge hit them with a $6 million fine just for taking out the trash?? That’s why the lawyers had the case moved to the US??"

[barren path]

crazy guy propably drank beer once in his life and acting all tough and shi

[median holly]

Look at the guy, now he just lying, by the same court filing you're citing the number and saying you know about.
The court ruled that Dark and Darker had nothing about the P3 project in it zero and that no information they learned was used in Dark and Darker.
What caused the fine was the judge ABSURD interpretation that what SDF learned working in Nexon helped to create Dark and Darker, yea that's true but so it's to everything in life, your previous boss doesn't own your knowledge nor the skills you learned this isn't going to hold up in the appeal, and next time you want to pose as knowing this maybe read it before hand?

so why is that I cant change the keybinds to divid items, send one by one or send them all at one. And who thought that the default keybinds are good??

[static frost]

Youre going to get it nerfed lol

[arctic laurel]

"The court ruled on 13th that there was no basis to conclude that Dark and Darker infringed on Nexon’s unpublished project (P3) copyrights, while recognizing that there was a trade secret infringement involving unauthorized use of internal plans and source code during the development process, ordering Ironmace to pay 8.5 billion won in damages." Can you read? They used internal plans and source code directly taken from NEXON?

[barren path]

developer currently trying his hardest not to listen to community so you shouldnt say those things

Yeah, looks like it’s gonna be more than $5.9 million now... Do you even get what any of that says?? (don’t answer, that’s rhetorical)

Just letting you know I blocked you both. I’m not going to waste my time if you can’t even read—that’s my baseline. At that point, I might as well be talking to a door. If you can’t understand a basic Reddit post, maybe that’s a sign it’s time to get some help.

[fluid lily]

I have 4090 and I have 0 tho

[barren path]

its because optimization is poo poo and all the torches are rendered even when you dont see them

[barren path]

According to my Discord Blocking expert, you have not blocked me yet.

[thorn ice]

#awkward.....for him...i think....idk

[arctic laurel]

0 lag? So you dont experience a little bit of choppyness. Because i have a similar build to you and in some places it is very noticeable. Frame drops are quite consistent, but with every other map i get 0 lag anywhhere no matter what.

[median holly]

Why would I? you don't seem insane or anything

[barren path]

well my discord blocking exper was right

[median holly]

You're just mostly trolling I don't mind it, nothing wrong with just a bit of trolling

[arctic laurel]

W counter rage bait

[lusty finch]

I'm running a 5070 and a ryzen 7 5800x3d and ruins is barely playable

[smoky jetty]

just fire sdf and release the underwatermap and we gucci ... also dont make 1v3 a thing, then everybody happy

[fluid lily]

Nope, unless you can tell me one spot specifically to test, so far I haven't had any of this. I'm not defending their optimization, far from me of that, I'm merely neutral in this chat making sure the right people meet.

[arctic laurel]

It is usually when you first spawn in, where there is alot of mobs and other entities that have to be rendered in etc. But that is very interesting because most people i know also struggle to achieve high frames. Maybe you just have a goat PC lmao

[barren path]

According to my game optimization expert, sdf doesnt care

[pine roost]

trollish team mates suck

[arctic laurel]

Do you play on max graphics etc? or have you turned them down?

[median holly]

Yes, try looking for group in the disc

[fluid lily]

Everything max, this is not CS:GO to play in minecraft graphics. But to be fair I also run ark ascended nicely and I see a lot of complaints about that game too. I thought it's just the 4090 aging nicely

[arctic laurel]

Yeah 4090 is a very good card. Better than any of the 50 ai slop cards they just released. Yeah you see im the opposite, on rust (a game known for bad optimisation) my pc tanks also. I honestly think youre processor and graphivcs card are carrying lol

[jagged fog]

Dude, you’re seriously embarrassing yourself. You’re out here trying to make a point in some twisted alternate reality where nothing adds up. Like... even your links don’t make sense?? At this point, I honestly have to wonder if you’re just trolling hard or if someone — not naming names, cough Ironmace cough — actually hired you to spread this nonsense. You guys must really think the whole community is stupid. Pathetic.

[clear cedar]

hes a troll

[dawn urchin]

is this game good yet

[median holly]

Not while you keep coming here

[jagged fog]

thx for that update-- goood LORD

[fluid lily]

https://discord.com/channels/988365908009447485/1375433683737116713 You can check this then you tell me

[dawn urchin]

rude and reported

[fluid lily]

@barren path bro as soon as you left he started being edgy again xD

[median holly]

A whining one, they love being sassy but get hurt easily

[dark isle]

man ive got no faith in this turning out good, this new wipe is going to make things fun for like 5 runs then ill just get bored of how nothing has changed and stop playing till the next change which will still add nothing and just do more modifications to existing content

[dawn urchin]

you couldnt even survive my level 1 dungeon and your pc would get like 10 fps

[fluid lily]

The only fun I have is playing shepherd for timmies in PvE mode that die to skeletons

[median holly]

I'm waiting for the next season to see how things will go but yeah, after the Soma and Odin podcast the morale is low

[dark isle]

i hate timmies in the game, i try to do solos or trios and getting a timmy as a teammate in HR is a nightmare

the worst are the idjits that just agro the entire room accidentaly and it gets you all killed because you loaded in a minute late or some random bs

[median holly]

They need to upgrade the party mode of this game we needs pings at the bare minimum or map location of the party members

[dawn urchin]

time to find a new game to play full time lil bro or a job at kurber bing

[subtle heart]

Minecraft might be more your speed

[dawn urchin]

you might like fortnite better, they have kendrick lamar skin, maybe u mum can get u enough fortnite bux for it

[median holly]

Bro it's a needed for players playing without discord, the game needs more methods to organize the group, otherwise you have to way to help or signal new players in game

You're in a game with 2 randoms, if one of them doesn't have a mic, it's already a lost scenario right now

[subtle heart]

Definitely not needed. Use voip. Build map knowledge.

[median holly]

How map knowledge will help me find the newbie who wandered off?

[pine roost]

when i first joined this game the first thing i noticed was for trios and duos theres no way to find a group theres no true lobbies and discord is the only way i can find someone decent to play with or im at the whims of the randoms maybe ill find a good person who helps me or a person who wants to keep playing but other than that the game feels like a single player game with multiplayer aspects as light seasoning

[subtle heart]

Not your problem - if you voip to no response, make irl friends that have discord

[median holly]

glad you're not a dev

[lyric creek]

what are you in life exactly ?

[shrewd cove]

Me when my irl friends dont want to play this dog game anymore
Went from like 7 ppl to 2

[fluid lily]

We went from 11 to 1

[barren path]

too much testosterone for him

[fluid lily]

He got the confidence boost to tell timmy that the game is worse bcs of him xDD

[median holly]

You mean what I do for a living? I'm doing a master's in biotech, i get paid to study basically

[pine roost]

is it possible to queue up with more than 3 people and guarentee you get into the same instance

[barren path]

he is on his villian arc he had enough

[unkempt drift]

you mean like queue sniping?

[pine roost]

i guess. but like a 9 man party of people in vc all working together to clear all the floors

[fluid lily]

It's hard to do, it's sniping and unless you sit in discord counting down doing it at the same time, it won't happen

[barren path]

what do you do as biotech do you just sniff flowers all day trying to find the 3 chromosomes?

[unkempt drift]

I think you could do it if you play on like OCE at a quiet time of the day. Ive seen chinese people team on OCE

[median holly]

My work line is towards insects to be more specific Aedes aegypti, we search things related to it, usually to understand or exterminate it

It's looks fun but it isn't that fun

[barren path]

can you find the 1 insect from korea thats ruining a popular video game?

[solar fog]

wtf is wrong with the game ? it kicks me recently from matches so often its unplayable

[median holly]

sdf

[limber verge]

That happened to my friend and he was having some drops in internet.

[median holly]

Sometimes when this happens i just restart the pc

[solar fog]

never had this issue until recently

[pine roost]

how do i make the latern shield shine light do i gota stick a latern in it

[solar fog]

game literally goes worse and worse and devs are making worse decisions every season, including this insanely high loot rate

[unkempt drift]

R i think to turn on your lantern

[fluid lily]

You press R

[median holly]

The lantern shield light is horrible tho, i disliked it

[unkempt drift]

yeah its like dim and pointing to the side unless you shield up

[pine roost]

its better than 0 light doe

[median holly]

True

[unkempt drift]

true if you're like a bard and cant really run torch

[median holly]

After the light update the game has places with zero light and that's a pain

[hard niche]

best double handed weapon for barbarian rn?

[fluid lily]

I play mine with grimslayer for fun but I think bardiche it's quite good from what I'm hearing. Honestly if you're not sure just try in arena and see what you like, maybe craft something.

[inner socket]

SDF resign

[alpine wadi]

Goblin nutsack update when

[hard niche]

yeah ive been using bardiche I just remember it was better a year ago

[median holly]

I just want a dwarf skin and the monk class, a dwarf punching people is my dream

[delicate steppe]

Ok fine but dwarves are constantly crouched and move at that speed

[median holly]

That's the terrifying part of monk dwarfs they're fast

[delicate steppe]

In 5e sure

[zenith mirage]

@fresh niche new announcement

[median holly]

Bro monks in 5E are a menace, but in high levels everything is a menace. but monks movement just breaks the game

[wanton otter]

Screenshot looks good. Hopefully the actual map is much darker. Ice caves is essentially glowing. Too many torches in this game are turned on by default.

[fluid lily]

Anyone knows what the warlock says when he transforms?

[wanton otter]

[fluid lily]

Jokes on you, I killed all barbs even with druids buffing behind them so far

In arena that is

[wraith wigeon]

That barb can't wear bonnet is a huge nerf

[fluid lily]

And maid outfits

[wanton otter]

They better add a pirate Cutlass

[wraith wigeon]

barb basically needs shang tsung's abilities

[fluid lily]

Definitely, we go full Jack Sparrow and he'd def do that

[severe coyote]

Sdf runs this game like monkey throwing levers

[median holly]

imagine a jack sparrow walking emote

[fluid lily]

The real DLC we need

[median holly]

5 dll new pay to win emote

[wraith wigeon]

nerf every class!

[chrome grail]

They adding pirate class 👀

[quiet lance]

Maybe

[median holly]

new weapons with it too

[velvet lichen]

game version is bad

[chrome grail]

Wonder if breathing underwater will be a thing

[velvet lichen]

hopefully the game won't be a thing

[chrome grail]

Scimitar would be pretty cool too

[median anvil]

They'll have snorkels

[muted lake]

that would be HILARIOUS

[chrome grail]

Just seeing em poke out the water 😂

[median anvil]

Dolphin form is coming for druid in prep for water level

[arctic laurel]

DO NOT give them any ideas

[chrome grail]

Totsugeki 🐬

[lyric creek]

got that damn dolphin squeek noise stuck in my head now ty

[median anvil]

lol

[muted lake]

if they do this then I can only assume the devs really want all non-druid players to simply suffer lmao

[pearl pagoda]

Hope we get another new zombie skin with the water map

[median anvil]

Barbs get whaling spears in the update

[muted lake]

oooh a throwable spear would be dope for Barb and fighter!

Cleric still needs more range too tho, not sure if they could add a water map themed weapon but I'd like to see a guiding bolt spell or skill

[pine roost]

the silver bows dont make sense. how is the material my bow is made out of going to change the damage of the arrow it fires. and unlike real life where an iron bow may have a weaker pull weight vs a bow made of steel, its also about the string, but a bow made of silver shouldnt deal more damage to undead, it sh ould be silver arrows

[fluid lily]

This zombie skin is for the water map

[muted lake]

you're right, but needing to craft silver arrows constantly to replenish them would SUCK compared to other classes getting to craft a single silver weapon and then use it til the player dies

[pine roost]

a quiver of silver liquid sure would of fixed that

[median anvil]

Cleric is getting holy water for the new water map

[fluid lily]

Teeeeechnically you could argue that the silver powder is not well imbued into the item and sticks to the arrow, very stretched but no other explanation

[austere wolf]

I've been waiting for 10 minutes now and I am still waiting to get my gear back from the Goblin doing Ice Caverns Adventure... Did they remove the gear return option in Adventure? wth is happening?

[muted lake]

how would holy water function??

[lyric creek]

turns the water yellow like gas cloud but kills any undead inside it

[south copper]

ill turn your water yellow

[muted lake]

oooh okay! ...but also why yellow?! lmao people are gonna call it the cleric's piss cloud! lmao

[median anvil]

Like in Castlevania, you'll throw a flask of it. It's all water themed for new awesome map!

[chrome grail]

Cleric will dip his body into the water thus blessing it for +3 all to teamates

[median anvil]

Man, i'm gonna keep playing this pile of shit in anticipation of the new awesome water map!

They've got me hooked

[muted lake]

idk I just want Cleric to get Guiding Bolt, they can already use explosive bottles for a throwable. Imagine they have a spell that's like Wiz Magic Missile or Sorc Flame Arrow except it's a single bright bolt that causes the target to glow for a short time if hit

[chrome grail]

Some kinda divine bolt yea

[trail ibex]

Can someone name me a less viable build for solos than caster cleric?

[median anvil]

No holy water, releases a magic lightning bolt like you said and shoots through walls before exploding and blinding everyone in a radius. It's next patch.

[trail ibex]

Remember when Sorc lighting bolt could go through walls? We dont need that again.

[muted lake]

that'd also be a cool idea for a ranged cleric spell

[chilly rose]

Magic damage ranger

[wraith wigeon]

barb seriously needs a buff

[chrome grail]

*bard

[blissful stirrup]

you guys are seriously misspelling ranger

[median anvil]

They're adding it with dolphin form for druid before the new awesome water map

[lyric creek]

fist fighter fighter

[lost tangle]

I've heard that the game turned to absolute garbage in the past months. Worse than 6 months ago. How was it possible ?

[muted lake]

good point, but this wouldn't be a continuous damage spell like the sorc lightning bolt, it'd be more like hellfire maybe?

[median anvil]

It's only possible with these developers, if you can call them that

[trail ibex]

You're getting dangerously close to no spell naked wizard

[wraith wigeon]

nerf bard

[lost tangle]

Any details ?

[chilly rose]

Why don;t they just look when this game was most popular and like , make the game like that XD

[trail ibex]

Barb*

[trail ibex]

BUT MUH VISION

[chilly rose]

[lost tangle]

I found gameplay footage of the very first versions of the game. How hard is it to not fuck up ?

[median anvil]

I'm sorry it's so many things and I've ranted about them on here for so long, along with everyone else, that I couldn't even begin at this point. They think they're gonna save the game now with a water map.

[chrome grail]

Make Bard a ranger. Flute shoots sleep darts

[austere wolf]

Man, why is the Goblin Merchant not giving me my gear back from Adventure WTF?...

[lost tangle]

The main issue I had was gameplay loop was broken because 90% of fights were finished in 4 seconds, with normal gear. Did they fix that ?

[median anvil]

Sorcerer can use his cool mud shield to fend off the pirates on the awesome new water map!

[cedar dagger]

insane this game went downhill so quickly, wont be another like it for some time, wish they had competent developers, pray someone buys them out when they claim bankruptcy

[chilly rose]

Did you die to the void? if so then you lose everything (for some stupid reason)

[lost tangle]

who f* care about a water map ?

[trail ibex]

Why does kettle hat exist. Itd stats are ass, just give it to bard.

Im not allowed to say dog sh it

[austere wolf]

I did man if that is the case, that is ridiculous.. I lost 20k set because of that..

[chilly rose]

For the fashion roleplayers

[median anvil]

No one except some really hopeful kids

[trail ibex]

Awtysm

[austere wolf]

Why is this game so horrible made? I did not pay money for this...

[chilly rose]

Yeah like there is no reason why that wouldn't give you you're kit back , also can't see anywhere that says you will lose it, Devs need a lesson about intuitiveness

[trail ibex]

Ironmace stole all the source code from Nexon

[half comet]

How to counter barb in common lobby?

[trail ibex]

Mosquito rogue

[lost tangle]

unironicaly might believe this at some point no ?

[austere wolf]

I'm getting more and more disappointed... what a shame.. Do not want to see the game die.. but with dev like that, i don't see a good future for us

[median anvil]

I don't know about you guys but they've got me hooked playing again now that they're stringing everyone along with tidbits of the awesome new water map! These guys are good! Forget a functioning game, you can just string ppl along indefinitely. That'll work!

[trail ibex]

The only way they'll convince me otherwise is when they start releasing content at the rate they did in the first year, and not just assets from the unreal store.

[lost tangle]

They really do that ?

[chilly rose]

Honestly I don't mind buying assets, as long as they rig them to have nice attacks etc

[trail ibex]

Id exclusively play high roller if I didnt have friends to do trios with.

[trail ibex]

Uh
Uhhhh
Uuuuuhhhhhhh

Remember the skeleton shielder being unparryable?

[chilly rose]

WE DO NOT SPEAK OF BUGS HEREEEEE

[night hare]

whys searching for duos HR as a solo taking over 5 minutes

[median anvil]

Yeah but the water map is going to worth it all. It'll save the game. Sorcerer will be able to shoot water bubbles and mud shields to block the pirates.

[void hound]

6k ppl playing, half in game I'd imagine so 3k ppl split among normals, adventure, and all the hr modes and arena if it's open idr and that's saying that most of them are queuing and not just afk or making kits

[void hound]

Also factoring the fact that hr duo is a paid feature so not everyone has access

[pine roost]

do higher tier lanterns provide better light or just more magical damage when you throw them

[sonic maple]

Guys I'm big mad 😠 the game is the same but it's popular to take our tiny rage of our lives out on it so I'm going to sit here and say with no context how the game needs a million new contents (what exactly that should be idk I'm the best dev tho (didn't someone say quivers?)) Yes so buff ranger they have it so hard right now. Also we n need to make a collection for Bill gates he can barely afford to suppress industry competition these days and I hear he needs a new island poor guy ❤️ Please give with all you have and keep the hate flowing through you. Together we can make the world a worse place.

[void hound]

Just more attribute rolls

[pine roost]

4 man squads would be better since they borrow alot from the dnd format. and maybe give us paladins samurai and maybe a gunner who uses black powder weapons. and before u say no guns pillars of eternity has hand guns and rifles they are high damage weapons but have low dps as the reloading eats up alot of time

[undone scarab]

er dark and darker peak og super godt?

[ornate heath]

ur washed

[undone scarab]

Is dark and darker peak and good?

[trail ibex]

Srsly wtf is going on in the devs heads? They complain about dead lobbies but add new maps to spread out the lobbies even harder? At least bring back the map rotation for that.

[lethal cradle]

godt daniel

[sonic maple]

Welcome to the server

[blissful stirrup]

Implementing squads would be a balancing nightmare and we'd be stuck in the same back and forth for another 3 years and they're already implementing a gun available to all classes in season 7

[chilly rose]

Is it just me that has no interest in playing with randoms?

[pine roost]

randoms are mostly bleh to play with

[hard niche]

it saves queues but makes it annoying as some stacks run only crypts or only caves both in dark and darker and delta force

[trail ibex]

Some lobbies dead >>>>> all lobbies dead

Id you have a measurably better alternative to that end I want to hear it.

[muted lake]

nah there's plenty of people that feel that way.

SDF says he ideally wants people to be able to queue into the same match with any party size, but tbh I'm having a hard time seeing how they could make that work. Imo it'd be a miracle if they found a good way to address the inherent advantage trios have over smaller parties without ruining the balance of PvP in other areas

[trail ibex]

I've had exactly one positive experience with randoms, but if it was high roller, fuck me, i'd get teamkilled for taking the better loot.

[pine roost]

they should let pve be solos or duos only and reducec the quality of the loot. or simply increase the number of mobs and powers of the mobs since the real threat of DaD is other players in pvp so u can have empty rooms in pvp and just add more chest or things to touch that either make players rush to that spot or take a long time looting if they plan to clear out the entire room

[ornate heath]

this will never work in this game, its not like tarkov where you can headshot ppl so having still pretty good chance to fight teams as a solo

[chilly rose]

Maybe if they took friendly fire off then that would stop that (edit: that probably wouldn;t work due to some spells needing to hurt to give buffs etc)

[trail ibex]

Windlass ranger would like to know your location

[brave oriole]

This is my BOOMSTICK!!

[clear cedar]

it would be made work with basic programming

guess what ironmace devs do not have

[trail ibex]

Id prob quit the game if they ass muskets. Nobody shoukd have access to an instakill from your toolbelt

[prisma lava]

Nerf ranger, nerf barb

[trail ibex]

Also barb still has an instakill skill (thats paradoxically useless in normals)

[ebon olive]

i didn't play a lot this wipe. Any feedback? is it good or worse? xd

[clear cedar]

maybe inaccurate and only one tap with headshot muskets?

[brave oriole]

I dunno i wouldnt mind a handgonne as long as it didnt have a headshot multi. Like generally speaking getting headshot sucks but getting headshot by the highest damaged ranged weapon in the game would be insta unfun

[muted lake]

tbh I agree. Super Short ttk is the only way I can think of to give skilled solos and duos a fighting shot against trios, but this game does not feel good when PvP is over after a single good hit. If SDF or anyone in IM has ideas for how else to implement mixed party queues then I'm curious to see it

[clear cedar]

worse than ever this game been

[ebon olive]

Would you mind expanding a bit?

[untold cove]

anyone else get a glitch where they have 0 audio

[clear cedar]

In short: it is like patch 69 but it is not getting fixed and devs are lot blinder

[trail ibex]

Lowest player count. All lobbies dead lobbies for most of the day. Normals trios only. Normals can no longer bring gear from grades uncommon or above. Boss snipping worse than ever. Barb more OP than ever. Everyone is move speed capped.

[ornate heath]

true, they should if anything increase the TTK, so there is more skill involved but having solo ques was not a problem now all these ppl that used to play blue lobbie solos are gone

[clear cedar]

classes not being balanced, f*ckass patches

[ebon olive]

wasn't the trio lobbies aimed to make the game more ''populated''?

[trail ibex]

If they're buffinf shart sword, can you at least cap armor pen down to 65% like all other stats? Because I've seen 200hp barbs getting tripple head tapped to the head with them.

[ebon olive]

Seems like the game is reaching a chronical state

[trail ibex]

Yes but it bleed the player count even harder. And tbf i havent noticed much of a difference as opposed to the previous wipe.

[undone scarab]

Is dark and darker peak and good?

[clear cedar]

sdf thinks this game is some shitty korean rough like game that people play with their friend for 24/7

[trail ibex]

Like last normals run i did, i went to pile in ice mountain and never heard player foot steps.

Isnt that supposed to be the maps hotspot?

[ebon olive]

it is supposed to

[brave oriole]

Ice and goblin caves are empty. Meanwhile ruins is a shithole moshpit lmao

[fluid lily]

Ruins is my chapel, leave that alone

[clear cedar]

very true, hyping people with something new ( not needed to be good) and trying to keep them ingame and make them waste money as much as they can.

[trail ibex]

Everytime i go goblin caves i get shit on by druids before i see any other class. Ice caves are a ghost town, i mainly do ruins and for whatever reason there's 8 people in the same module under a minute.

[ebon olive]

it seemed like a good game at first.. prolly time to uninstall?

[brave oriole]

I been running gobbo hr and it took 4 matches for me to see a single soul and it was a bis barb. Legit the only jit i saw in like an hour lol

[opaque valley]

Are duos disabled already? I cant get into a game

[clear cedar]

ruins is a unopimized tiny sh't hole.

[trail ibex]

You should have been around when it released on steam. It was peak up until patch 68 barring the fact there was no module randomization and players would spawn rush you

[clear cedar]

it was so fun atleast 1.5 years ago, this games time has passed.

[trail ibex]

BRUH NO WAY

[sweet crow]

fix your servers, someone is destroying them with rubber banding and lag

[clear cedar]

the servers itself is shit

[brave oriole]

Bro im being real af that shit is pure ghost theres nobody lmao

[unkempt magnet]

Just lost my fulgor kit cause the lag won't let me walk or switch weapons...

[fluid lily]

Is this happening on EU server? I had this happening only while selling jewelry last night

[sweet crow]

US, I'm guessing it's serverwide though (it's in game/match)

[brave oriole]

Game is in fact a little laggy

[sonic maple]

Baaahhh

[trail ibex]

I dont get it, why is it such an unpopular map? Is it because of nightmare goblin mages?

[crisp wagon]

Damn just got DDOS'd mid match in PVE of all places lol
People are cheating just to grief now

[brave oriole]

Idk gang its just dead af. My ass went in squires and by the time i was dead to the barb i had solo self found like 3 legs and had copperlightfoots and copperlight gaunts lmao

[fluid lily]

It's a PvP focused map, SOLO PvP players used to spam that map to be even more precise. Most of them are on a strike since the removal of solo normals and the announcement of solo HR removal. I'd say this is one of the major causes.

[spiral carbon]

We’re up to 8k pop? What changed?

[woeful island]

@glad thunder You promise a quiver for 3-4 seasons, just make the number of arrows 40-50.

[cosmic swan]

They promised the quivers for like 2 year now. And changing the amount of arrow per stack is a good idea, so they can't do that

[still cypress]

Changing numbers around is only for Axe Specialization

[cosmic swan]

Exactly

[minor stump]

why cant i use Chapel Der Fer helmet on ranger it looks like it was made for him

[severe coyote]

Bro they lost their INVENTORY GUY, you know their QUIVER GUY is probably still reeling from the loss. Don't even get me started on the BOOTS GUY.

[fluid lily]

It's true, this game doesn't have enough triple ranger comps in arena, let's buff it even more and give it some better items. I even suggest giving it to sorcerers it's been 2 arena games without 2 sorcerers in each team so clearly they need buffs and more items.

[storm tartan]

Can someone TLDR all the recent drama surrounding this game. I’m a casual player who hasn’t played for a couple months

[severe coyote]

sdf sucks, game sucks, graysun sucks and thinks he doesn't, graysun spineless, sdf vision is bad, gear doesn't matter, only cheat 9 times, have fun.

[ornate heath]

cat skin with tits

[storm tartan]

Sounds about right. We need our Batman back @mendo

[visual bloom]

oh is there a cap at 500 luck?

[wanton heart]

ppl starting getting pissed

[severe coyote]

Game just needs to finish dying so its swan song can be the joke sdf made of it at the end of may when he was thrown such a soft pitch to grow the playerbase. (imagine your biggest competitor closing their doors and that same week YOUR playbase drops lol)

[plucky osprey]

Yo i just came back to this game after a while; is there any way to enjoy this game as a solo player anymore?

[storm tartan]

We need goblin tits pronto

[severe coyote]

If you like moving starter gear around in the stash you might have fun as a solo player, do you enjoy lobby inventory management?

[fluid lily]

Yes

[plucky osprey]

ill take that as ano

[severe coyote]

You are correct. Have fun!

you should watch the dorkest hour #6, it seems to have a lot of insight to what you probably already expected about sdf and his leadership style.

[cold radish]

ironmace please please pleas for the love of all that is good in this work fix blocking its the worsts its ever been its horrible

[severe coyote]

Actual quote from Graysun in the Tavern channel:

We have learned our lesson, and instead of trying to advise him away from what he wants, we will fully support him.

[pine roost]

Yall really in voice chat maybe I should stop by see what yall chatting about.

[severe coyote]

gotta love your development team refusing to give advisement to their "leader"

[jolly olive]

anyone else losing 4k kits due to server lag?????

[agile flame]

just lost a 10k kit

[cold radish]

yes the servers haave never been worse EVER

[chrome bloom]

no

[jolly olive]

[agile flame]

IM GONNA PUKE I LOST MY 10K KIT TO LAG

[visual bloom]

u can get AP when you die?

[boreal flame]

Thank you! If these trolls are ready to settle down then I know IronMace will make this the best update

[outer dagger]

Oh sweet summer child

[fluid lily]

You lose 10 AP if you die but if your AP gain from interactions/kills outweights that you will be positive

[plush wagon]

whats happening rn

[visual bloom]

man last time i died in highroller you just got negative ap

[primal ruin]

sdf dosent even know this channel exist. if he did maybe hed take the time to read some problems and fix it...

[boreal flame]

Here we go with another troll trying to lie about SDF

[visual bloom]

nah would take to long to sift through all the non constructive whining

[boreal flame]

Exactly, these people are sent by NotLikeThem and other bad actors trying to gain clout by attacking DnD and attacking innocent IronMace Devs

[undone scarab]

Is dark and darker peak and good?

[nova heron]

sdf need to get fired he is killing his own game

[fluid lily]

I'll let you decide yourself https://discord.com/channels/988365908009447485/1375433683737116713

[outer dagger]

no and no

[primal ruin]

i looked at lobby the other day and had a total of 6k players... u tell mme if its good

[sage pebble]

complaining while only having 10k is diabolical

[boreal flame]

SDF has done this community right and time again, stop trying to spread false info and bad faith conversations

New season starts next week, game is fine and doing better than ever

[primal ruin]

i cant tell if ur trolling lol, if hes done so good why is the game losing players faster than ever??

[agile flame]

did the math it was a 15k kit

[nova heron]

wtf are you talking about. You are coping so hard

[outer dagger]

Guy's trolling. Pay no heed

[boreal flame]

I have already explained twice that steam is getting involved and removing the fake negative reviews shortly before the Update

[sage pebble]

get your bag up and stop crying in a discord 👍

[primal ruin]

fake?? hahhahaha

[teal dune]

Wipe will either make or kill off what remains of the dark & darker playerbase. instead of crying in #game-discussion take a break, and come back when its out! give it a try, or dont.

[fluid lily]

I'm gonna miss my 50k gold frost amulet next semi wipe. So far I haven't lost it

[boreal flame]

game is doing better than ever

[agile flame]

i was farming ap, and the server was terminated from threats. Its actually nonsense i have no choice but to say something here.

[sage pebble]

Its actually nonsense i have no choice but to say something here 🤓 ☝️

[agile flame]

bro, my point is noone should be dying to server problems and not getting their kits

[agile flame]

Most of us here have been playing since playtest, the devs should be looking in here to see how bad their game is

[nova heron]

bro there is only 4000 in a weekend. last season when it was 8k at least

[fluid lily]

I remember random thursday from before announcing removal of soloes duos and pve mode, 15k 15k

[visual bloom]

i bet the vin diagram overlap of ppl bitching about sdf and ppl that tell ppl to uninstall cause bad is pretty large

[clear cedar]

he deeply hates constructive whining no way you are getting him to read that

[outer dagger]

Yep. That's 10x worse than a year ago

[visual bloom]

that comment is a slight to the shitposters not sdf

[nova heron]

this game would have been like Destiney, no one had made a game like this. Basically had a monopoly of the genre but instead squanders it.

[outer dagger]

Unfortunately for Dnd, capitalism means that eventually someone will make a better product and the customer will go there

[fluid lily]

Also unfortunately, there is no such thing rn

[primal ruin]

^tru

[visual bloom]

new age capitalism will make a more profitable product instead of better unfortunately.

[fluid lily]

A game sprouting from passion and love of the players, holding the line. Dying slowly over time due to love turning to hate and the passion becoming greed after tasting the 1st million. It's almost poetic.

[outer dagger]

Hey! That 'line' wasn't part of the developers original vision, ok?? So what if they keep redrawing the line over and over again to trip over.. I mean hold

[hybrid falcon]

Yo a birb

[fluid lily]

A tale of misguided ego misunderstood as a self awakening journey, the vision. Sometimes we get lost thinking about the future and ruin the present, so is the story of sdf. The whispers of the ego were too strong and already corrupted what was left of the good intentions of someone who went through working for a corporations. Unfortunately for our warrior, whatever good intentions were left after he quit were no match for the greed and the ego, the delusions of grandeur that a corporate employee is seeding every day, dreaming of getting a promotion. A tale to remember, from Dark and Darker times under sdf's vision, chapter 6.

[rich tendon]

WTF is this bullshit, now we can't launch a game with blue stuff ??

We need artefact or common stuff ?

[hybrid vapor]

you dont NEED artifact to do the pve option

[pseudo sparrow]

@Graysun good boy

[rich tendon]

yeah but who plays pve -_-'" i loved using blue stuff to play pvp ....

since i don't play artefact it makes looting useless to me..

[surreal aspen]

you can, just play the artifact lobby

[rich tendon]

yes but tthen you get wrecked by artefact players

[surreal aspen]

ye 100% ppl play artifacts

[flint sapphire]

better than ever while having 15k players down from 54k on steam relaunch 😭

[rich tendon]

but i don't own any artefact stuff dude its so expensive i'm still learning. Even the mobs will frag me

[clear cedar]

it's the sdf alt account, better to stay away from it

[lyric creek]

pal worlds had 2 million players on launch, it now has 19,700. let that sink in.

[white tartan]

Let that 🚰 in

[flint sapphire]

Who asked about palworld this is a dnd discord

[quiet lance]

Mb mb 🚪

[white tartan]

Gentleman

[fluid lily]

The preachers have not yet arrived on every single part of the world, and so it was that sdf's vision and plans were not yet known by every player. https://discord.com/channels/988365908009447485/1375433683737116713 preachers tried their best to spread the word, to let people know about the mighty plans of the misguided warrior, but of no avail. "Talifurn" a warrior that hasn't been playing for a long time came back from the break and said "WTF is this bullshit", the prophecy? Fulfilled. Warriors coming back to the game found out that the game they loved has been through a lot of changes, no longer existing in the form they enjoyed the most. The preachers were lost 1 by 1... every steam comment, every negative review, every discord frustration message. And so it was, that the returning warriors such as @rich tendon were not in the loop anymore and could not believe the sdf development - From Dark and Darker times under sdf's vision, mid section, chapter 6

[lyric creek]

all these people crying "games dead" etc. its like no people have a short attention span now days. If its not filled full of LED flashy colors and drawing people in like a casino craze they end up playing the game for what its worth and moving on. Thats life. It doesnt mean the games dead. Out here mad cause they don't have their dopamine fix cause their brains reward systems broken.

[prisma pasture]

what does sk stand for

[white tartan]

Skeleton key

[brisk mason]

This just really isnt true but ok. Look at every top steam chart game and game in general what games are fitting this description.

Yes people have shorter attention spans now but your just making things up because you think the “new generation “ doesn’t know what a good game is

[chrome bloom]

Are you dumb

[trail ibex]

Skeleton Key. Its basically another form of gold storage because nobody uses them in match unless they have enough in inventory for several consecutive matches in order to get a unique. Because if you purchase one from the marketplace YOU WILL NOT HAVE THEM PAY FOR THEMSELVES unless an artifact drops.

I meant artifact, not unique.

[flint sapphire]

bro is trying so hard to cope its crazy lol

[median anvil]

If SDF has an idea of what the game should be then why can they not tell anyone what that final version will look like? Is that not insane? Surely a company has to know where they are heading and be able to articulate that. Why would that need to be a secret?

[autumn rapids]

If you die in HR to the Circle, is it possible to get anything back from Dungeon Recovery?

Or is it 0% Recovery in HR ?

[fluid lily]

You don't recover from HR unless your teammates take your items

[median anvil]

Someone explain

[trail ibex]

Yes, dungeon recovery is only for Adventure mode now since you cant take gear with you to normals

Srsly someone tell me why green gear exists if you cant take it to normal. The game was much better at the start of wipe.

[autumn rapids]

That's odd to reduce it to PVE only, but thanks!

Sad that we deleted over half of the game, I miss Solo Blue Nomals

[prisma pasture]

so its a currency that pretty much = 3k gold

[trail ibex]

Yes, you use it to buy artifacts, because i cant see anyone using it unless they're in a trio and extracting with everything it yields

[prisma pasture]

so its a pretty decent key to run? like it has alot or loot or no

[opal merlin]

does bluestone dissapear after semi wipe ?

[leaden lion]

no

[fluid lily]

You should note that in general skull key is not 3k and this is an anomaly

[prisma pasture]

how much is it usually

[leaden lion]

around 20k

[median anvil]

How much are snorkels gonna cost for the new water map?

[prisma pasture]

why are prices so incredibly low rn then

[leaden lion]

because of semi wipe

[fluid lily]

Semi wipe is close

[long compass]

are you 50 years old?

[copper sapphire]

yeah facts the game is actually dead

[worthy blaze]

if player count is this brutal just go back to map rotation i guess and make goblins solo only

[copper sapphire]

not a bad idea honestly no idae why7 they removed solos so so stupid

[jade dust]

Not a good idea

I got a mystical gem is the loot room any good or should I sell it

[median anvil]

Goblin caves is so awful no one wants to play it anymore, they destroyed it.

[worthy blaze]

ya the smaller version was better

[arctic laurel]

He used Palworld as a comparison too hahahah, a game that has Pokemon as a competitor and an similar alternative, what alternative does DAD have? NONE lmao horrible comparison

Palworld going against a billion dollar company and can retain players better

[long compass]

also palworld was complete shit

[median anvil]

SDF said he wants to take the game in the direction of Nintendo's Animal Crossing to capitalize on the games hit success.

[arctic laurel]

lmao exactly
