game-discussion

[muted pebble]

ohhhh yeah that makes sense, games really only poppin on asia and na, more so na east which is what i play on

[vagrant crow]

why this game is dead?

[shut mural]

Ain’t no way they spent more time developing another map. The guys clearly copy pasted and now only know how to make maps lmao

[stone root]

yeah, who asked for a new map?

what about quiver? red portals rework, new perks and skills? reworking druid?

[fringe garnet]

For this one? Assuming it's F2 goblin caves, a lot of people

[stone root]

"a lot of ppl"

[limber tiger]

if it is in fact F2 goblins i would be surprised they didnt make it like an LOTR underground goblin town

[shut mural]

The community has clearly stated we want new classes, skills, perks, weapons, gathering hall and quiver but no lets make another map after the releasing one that is the opposite of their core game and everyone just leaves it as soon as they spawn on it.

[shut mural]

I haven’t heard any big names mention it or even in this discord. Wild cope.

[onyx oar]

Think for yourself, new content incoming, new wipe in 8 days. Youll just cry dead game or why this new content. Lil dck

[shut mural]

I’m just going off their record. When they focus on a new map other content gets put on back burner. Hopefully I’m wrong.

[brazen pike]

quiver is a meme

what the community really wants most is pregnant goblins

[glacial sequoia]

i've seen the dong of the man in your pfp

[hardy stump]

they have enough people to run multiple things at once in development paralell, its sdf who is the bottle neck, feeling the need to personally supervise, control and accept everything leading to endless delays and lack of content

[shut mural]

That’s me

[fringe garnet]

Perhaps... Only time will tell

[shut mural]

Totally true. But I’ll let their record speak for itself.

[stone root]

im always in touch of severals communities in this game, american, brazilian; never seen F2P asking for new maps. They usually just want to know when is the next discount.

This is just ppl finding an excuse to justify any shit IM does.

[onyx oar]

How much did yall pay for this game to be trippin' about this type of sh

[stone root]

oh yeah, "you didn't pay enought to complain, just play bruh"

[onyx oar]

Exactly, the game slaps. New content is pumping. Tf?

[stone root]

in early days ppl used to say ppl like you were in a cult

[onyx oar]

Im new to disc, not the game G. It's gonna be alright.

[sage bobcat]

anyone know if hardcore arena is gonna be ssf?

[onyx oar]

It better be man, no mid season changes. No grouping, ssf, no mini bosses.

Fingers crossed anyways

[stone root]

it probably wont matter since if you lose, your gear goes away anyway

[glacial sequoia]

yeah the game slaps that's why there's barely a thousand dudes logged in

[stone root]

[onyx oar]

Im not into stuff cuz everyone else is, I just play fun games. I am guessing since you're in this discord, you're similar.

I need 12 people in a rags to riches and I am pumping

[stone root]

most ppl who complain play more than 5h a day and are pvpers

[fringe garnet]

Anything comes in, only the winning team's stuff comes out

[onyx oar]

Trust, I PvP

5hrs is light work when arena is actually on

I'm just saying, the amount of lil dck energy I read right before new content. Is wild as hell.

[glacial sequoia]

cool story from a zoomer who can barely speak

[pure bolt]

IM and SDF especially, have made a lot of stupid mistakes. A LOT, but there are a lot of people in this community who are very toxic, very entitled, or both.

[onyx oar]

That part ^

[glacial sequoia]

pumping and slapping and lil dck's, wild as hell

[dense tinsel]

hey, haven't been around in awhile. i was curious, will marketplace be closed at the start of this new season?

[sturdy coral]

likely yes, the ~2 week ssf at the start has been successful for past 2 seasons

[slim tulip]

Wild thought, All classes should be able to place down traps.
like how only barbs use to be able to break doors and now everyone can.
Rangers should only have a easier time placing them or make them so they do snare more time per tier.
like reduce the trap time and modify rangers perk so it last longer for them

[hardy stump]

it was for last 2 seasons and reception was very positive, no reason to think it'll be otherwise now

unlocked quests is also something I like, can quickly get to craftables

[brazen pike]

kinda off-topic but that just gave me flashbacks to early dad when traps were abundant because they held you for 6 business days and made you complete skill checks to escape early

[muted pebble]

needs to be a second floor to some map no way its a new map that would be like the worst decision ever

[muted pebble]

its more so the how early have you guys been playing and how much time have you guys put into the game, who ever has been palying this since play test 1 or 2 or whatever know that the game is like a love hate relation ship, we all miss how good we had it and what we once had

[onyx oar]

I am old school man, just didn't have a legendary acc back then to farm my cape. Regardless of all that, I just think being toxic about something you obv like is counter intuitive.

[slim tulip]

This is such a stupid topic going around since they released the HR rewards video. Bro is just a stupid template scenary that they did just to "film" the video. They do this all the time, when they put multiple actors and do the Shorts that they post on YouTube.

Y'all are freaking out about the most stupid thing ever, no, they are not releasing a new map

[onyx oar]

Someone yesterday was saying they believe it's level 2 to Pirate map, a volcano in the center Maelstrom

[slim tulip]

That's a very stupid idea because the "going down" portal in watermap is the middle spot, I know this because I tested it when the map came out, if you go all the way down you get a special debuff and because is not active yet you die when you reach the bottom

So how are we supposed to go from a bottomless pit into a volcano?

Imo the second floor should be very dark completely underwater with very few light spots to justify both the lantern and water breathing pots

Cuz rn water breathing pots are only for rushing stingray and nothing else

[onyx oar]

Volcano in the ocean makes sense to me given the rewards, just where on the map is the question

[outer grail]

there are lots of volcanoes 🌋 underwater

[slim tulip]

The map is called ship graveyard. Volcanoes are more island stuff, the map is about water not beaches

[hardy stump]

how are we going from castle ruins to literal hell?
don't overthink it

[subtle goblet]

KRAKATOA

[onyx oar]

That is a great thought, multiple entrances throughout pirate map

[slim tulip]

Because the kingdom got cursed? And the king was literally morphed into the lower level boss? There are 4 books in game talking about this

[outer grail]

👍

[stone root]

big explosion indeed, but why krakatoa now

[subtle goblet]

idk just wanted to say it

[abstract basin]

guys

someone help me i think i lost my legendary accout on epic

[stone panther]

hello sir, I am from epic support. Please post your full name, credit card number, date of birth, social security number and your moms maiden name and the name of your 2nd dog growing up. And our account team will be right on it.

or... contact epic instead of plonking it in a community discord

[abstract basin]

lmao

[pliant pike]

@glad thunder will u buy mobile version of this game?

[slim tulip]

It was the other way around, the mobile version bought it from IM a long time ago

[fossil geode]

Hey Ironmace thanks for ruining the greatest game ever made. Sell this game. Youre out of touch with your player base. Scroll back to the first comment I made. After the QA test.... of 300 or so people. I SAID DONT LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY KEEP YOUR ORIGINAL FOCUS... but instead... we got solos... then we got an auction house.... we got random modifiers that wernt needed and created min/max... every big thing you added from the community hurt your game... COOKED. may a small studio do what Ironmace did. Take something and make it better. Please steal all concepts and ideas and make them better. Everyone will follow. GG ironmace. Have fun catering to the wimp solos in the gobbys caves.

[pliant pike]

The mobile version closed today so I wanna know will sdf buy it

[bitter citrus]

So we're a week out from wipe, any news on what is coming out with it or no?

[sinful prawn]

nothin

[bitter citrus]

So just wiping to wipe and hopefully get a pop in players for a couple weeks.

[sinful prawn]

looks that way

[loud moat]

Ya basically, allegedly gobbo layer 2 and some new perks/skills but given IM history pretty unlikely to be anything that matters significantly

[bitter citrus]

They used to call that a semi-wipe. Guess that is all they got this time around.

[desert latch]

lmao

[loud moat]

Aged like milk in a car in the summer holy

[solemn dagger]

Its been several seasons for me since I played but the news looks.... rough. Thinking of giving it one more try next wipe.

[bitter citrus]

Just play now. Only difference will be your stuff is gone and your "collect 5 bracelets" quest will be reset. @solemn dagger

[desert latch]

the game is down to like 2600 ppl on the norm but like we need a way to stop rat

[solemn dagger]

Too deep in mh wilds atm. Lol!

[glacial sequoia]

how's performance read they fixed her

[desert latch]

they just need gear score to hr then have like 250 and like 251 and above

that fixes rats kinda

[stone panther]

"we do not have enough players, so we need to make it harder to play"

someone should promote this guy

[desert latch]

@stone pantherpromote what?

[stone panther]

you. to ceo.
clearly you are even more gifted in killing the game than sdf

[desert latch]

maybe

[bitter citrus]

Yes let's ride the extremely unpopular fish map out for a season or two. Brought to you by the people who thought adding fishing to a pvp game was a good idea.

[crystal fulcrum]

I love water map

[desert latch]

best map ever

[bitter citrus]

I love Long John Silver's. Doesn't make it good.

[crystal fulcrum]

thats your own opinion, not everyone will agree

[bitter citrus]

most people don't. see how that works

[crystal fulcrum]

im looking

[bitter citrus]

check under the sea anemone

[crystal fulcrum]

but the fun thing about this game is that you can choose the map you play

[indigo ginkgo]

You are a sorry hater bud. The Blue Maelstrom map is a good map, and a refreshing addition to the game.
If you are expecting to play an MMO, you are playing the wrong game.

[bitter citrus]

I'm not playing it I'm just here to check if there's been any changes for this season.

[crystal fulcrum]

read anouncments thats where all changes are posted

[bitter citrus]

Lookin like no. 4 people enjoying fish map and somebody about to tell me to take a hike for being curious about the lack of anything in announcements.

[silver smelt]

Season #8

• 7x7 maps
• new POI
• removal of Dark Swarm circle
• new map
• Expressman in every dungeon
• Quiver and backpacks
• Stash sort system
• new cape artifact
• new shield small artifact
• craft items
• SSF Arena
  +60 new perks, spells, skills

[slim tulip]

why buy it? it was very different from the base game, they could do one themselves if they want to

[bitter citrus]

same ole same ole

[azure hawk]

Can’t afford it

[slim tulip]

ofc is all of the negativity coming from old players that pushes new players away

[fossil geode]

Lol ^ this guy. Our words arnt overriding new players shit experience

[indigo ginkgo]

It's really sad that people who can't program a smiley face in basic, want to tell game developers what to do.

[fossil geode]

Lol new players aint having fun playing with min/maxed sweats. They have more fun in the discord

[azure hawk]

^
Maybe it’s just because I joined at the end of season, but there is no fun rn. People just rushing kills, or maybe just how the game is designed? I thought when I started playing there would be opportunity to cooperate with people on dungeon stuff but I was wrong haha

[strange crag]

Lentil!

omg you live!

[fossil geode]

@azure hawk Dont tell that to crossano

[strange crag]

Lentil let me join you ingame

[bitter citrus]

strawman bs. Have they announced anything about the new season coming in 8 days? "no" Why not? Is there nothing this season to hype up? "GFYS the game is great last season was great, they don't need to hype anything, i love all the game and maps and so does everyone else!"

[silver smelt]

Have they announced anything about the new season coming in 8 days?
yes?

[crystal fulcrum]

no one reads anymore

[slow scaffold]

No one helps anymore ***

[pearl venture]

can you get stingray egg from pve hr?

[bitter citrus]

idk where it says that in announcements of SDFs kitchen

[fervent anvil]

why read when can complain

[slow scaffold]

Si

[pearl venture]

@slow scaffold thanks !

[long hornet]

I’m suprised how many people are so negative about how the games going, knowing they were in a massive lawsuit for awhile that could have bankrupted them and been forced to close the game down. Why spend money needlessly on an early access game? Now they won the case, and were given 2 million to put towards it. This is where all that content they’ve been holding will be released

[crystal fulcrum]

true its easier

[slow scaffold]

good luck 🍀

[bitter citrus]

oh it doesn't. guess they do their announcements in general meme chat since all the big streamers left

[pearl venture]

sorry i meant adventure mode pve

[slow scaffold]

All modes you can

[pearl venture]

copy

[slow scaffold]

🫡

[bitter citrus]

this is just the last hotfix that fixes bugs

[stone panther]

you'll be killing him 200 times before you get one tho

[slow scaffold]

Cap I got mine in about 60-70

[stone panther]

oh, only 70. EzEz

[slow scaffold]

[snow apex]

Is this true?

[pearl venture]

better then the hr juice kids teaming

[slow scaffold]

Only tryna give him hope tbh

[slow scaffold]

I got mine in normals solo’s nobody there to bug you and easy blues after you kill and no egg

[stone panther]

the quickest way to get an egg is to farm arti's from ghostking and swap those out on the tradingpost, lol

they really need to fix the drop rate next season (or just flat out untie the stupid quest)

[bitter citrus]

new map and 60 new spells/skills lol highly unlikely. if they did then that would be great though

[snow apex]

yea, however it might be possible since the water map

[bitter citrus]

guess we will find out on the 29th

[pearl venture]

artifacts drop too right?

[desert latch]

when are we getting monk class?

[snow apex]

it will never be

[snow apex]

Monk is kinda too eastern for a game like Dark and Darker

[bitter citrus]

will probably be the 30th but that is ok

[edgy void]

Cope harder

[desert latch]

dang i was gonna go rat on monk class lmao

[slow scaffold]

Only hr pvp

[snow apex]

Monk class on a european based medieval fantasy game

[bitter citrus]

pretty sure that is the next class they are working on

[snow apex]

realistically, how do kill someone on plate armor barehanded

[pearl venture]

copy that thanks

[fervent anvil]

punch

[bitter citrus]

bonk them in the head. plate was good against blades. blunt force not so much

[snow apex]

oh? how do you punch someone who is in plate armor

[fervent anvil]

you take fist. and throw it at them

[earnest current]

@zinc sparrow Hopefully, the game development team won't make the same mistake as with the Sea of ​​Shit map launch. Creating a new map means adding more maps but lacking players, which will only lead to even fewer players if it's a separate map. Instead, let all current maps connect to the new map, because generally, any area leads underground to volcanic lava, and the game's story will be completely connected. Players from all maps, upon descending through the red gate, will converge on one map, solving the player shortage problem. For example, the Hell map has too few players, so the Ruin map will have four layouts. Upon descending from Hell to the red gate, players will be rewarded by having all their inventory items sent directly to the Expressman NPC, and then a final battle will take place on the Lava map, gathering all players from all maps.

[next summit]

how fast can i earn the skin?

[granite hamlet]

Praying we actually get some more lore next wipe

[fluid tulip]

It didn’t take very long. As long as you don’t die a lot. Avoid pvp if you aren’t great at it. If you feel confident killing players does award AP as well.

[warm nova]

@zinc sparrow
https://darkanddarker.featureupvote.com/suggestions/689857/suggestion-to-improve-wipe-schedule-and-server-reopening

[granite hamlet]

have they ever actually done anything from there

[topaz temple]

No shot they are actually working on another map right?

[jagged badger]

чего?

брат ни единого слова не понял переведи

[indigo ginkgo]

Players also like to farm maps, get expert at them, find the juicy spots and get the phat loot.
Very few people like to trudge through multiple maps.
It would be good to give players the option of which map to go to next, or to exiting back to base, when they hit an exit portal.
More options, more fun, no more red and blue portals, just a pop-up selection of what you want to do / where to go next.

[rapid halo]

I’d said most likely another floor to an existing map.

I’d say*

[midnight sail]

they should remove the sea map and add the crypt in squires to riches rotation and the hell map too,

[onyx oar]

yes

[snow apex]

Hoping they add Paladin/Death Knight class this year

[granite hamlet]

What would it be another floor to tho? Gob caves? If they did they’d need to rework the reds finally otherwise there’s never gonna be a map you can properly PvP without people camping reds

[fluid tulip]

Goblin caves is what people are hoping for from what I have seen but 3rd level ice is where most people are leading and I think it’ll be 2nd level water cuz that’s what would trigger everyone the most 😂

[midnight needle]

Please for the love of god buff Ranger, we need at least +5 weapon damage added to all bows and spear. Ironmace please make these changes to save your game

[clear atlas]

I just want to get enough money for egg, but freaks just rat and sit at the boss room never doing it for 3/4ths of the game, its crazy, like, you can have the kit if you want it so bad, I just want money T.T

[uncut stump]

3,300 hours later I have beat every boss, killed every streamer, had every artifact, guys I think it's time I put down the game and play something else.

[midnight needle]

bye

[onyx oar]

Just grow some food, it'll help balance

[uncut stump]

Just run around as a druid and wait for them to fight and kill eachother then when the other guys low just scoop his loot.

[clear atlas]

I already do that xD its quite fun

[uncut stump]

How dare you complain then

[ocean pond]

Ive been on hiatus. Any sign that the devs will unfuck this game? I periodically check player count and its never above 3k. Any light at the end of the tunnel or not really? Genuinely curious for those of you that keep up /regularly play

[vapid oyster]

I played all night last night and every single game was a lobby of rogues and druids training groups of pve mobs into anyone bothering to actually play the game

[clear atlas]

I must become what I hate lol

[vapid oyster]

and anyone not playing rogue/druid is shamelessly teaming

so no, the game is fucked and the devs think it's cute

[ocean pond]

bummer. This game use to be something special

[clear atlas]

unless they actually do something good for the game this wipe, prob wont happen ever.

[vapid oyster]

sdf has publicly stated that "crow playstyle" aka "ratting" is a "valid playstyle" and he has said that teaming is "roleplaying" and also valid and part of the game, so that's not going to change

[whole pollen]

DELET DRUID

AND SORC..

an lok

[pallid hemlock]

cant you get banned for teaming tho?

[vapid oyster]

no lol

[pallid hemlock]

so then why can you report people for teaming?

[sturdy coral]

Y u lying to bro 😭

[solid cypress]

So arena this weekend gonna start on Friday instead of Thursday?

[azure hawk]

Has anyone actually been banned for teaming?

[vapid oyster]

teaming is supposedly against the rules in HR only, but to do anything about it, you need to have a clip of it happening and then make a report on the website. so unless you're recording the whole time you play and then take the time to make a report every single time it happens, which is multiple times a game every game, there's no chance, and even if you do, they probably don't ban them anywayy

so lulz

[sturdy coral]

considering I’ve reported ppl for teaming, then gotten temp ban notif for that player… yes

[pallid hemlock]

so is valid but also supposedly agasint the rules. pretty much summarizes the company tbh

[vapid oyster]

let me spend half my night clipping and reporting teamers kek

[azure hawk]

Oh only temp so it’s not that bad then

[vapid oyster]

for sure let me do that

[azure hawk]

Slap on the wrist type beat

[sturdy coral]

Supposedly it escalates to perm but I haven’t seen it myself

[vapid oyster]

and that's only HR, I was playing sr2 last night and the teaming is just fucking rampant and it's completely fine lol

[pallid hemlock]

slap on the wrist for a "valid playstyle" 🤣 these devs are masterclass trolls

[sturdy coral]

I didn’t even clip it. Just reported 2 guys and 1 got banned

[pallid hemlock]

nah youre lying. it was at least 20 mins of 1080p

[wraith stag]

Só other guy cliped the same dude

[pallid hemlock]

where did he say this tho? i just want to have the visual of his message saying this next to a screenshot of teaming being a report option 🤣 genuine masterclass trolls

[vapid oyster]

sdf's kitchen is where he posts all his dumb shit

[sand sedge]

Hello teaming is against the rules in HR, if you see it report it.
People get banned for teaming

[pallid hemlock]

i thought so, just following up on this #game-discussion message

[zinc fossil]

there is a person. some people think its a woman, some people think its a guy posing as a woman. she is terrorizing the north american LFG. it is a VERY bad experience playing with her. she has a reputation. please can we get this person banned?

[sand sedge]

Game philosophy for them I wouldn’t say is necessarily stagnant, when he made this statement he went back and made several changes that went directly against that.

I would not trust SDF’s word for what he wants for the game in the long run because he changes it so much

[pallid hemlock]

he did actually make that statement tho? 💀

[azure hawk]

Oh, yikes …

[sand sedge]

Yep, he also said we are going to go to space

[rigid needle]

<@&988703997378584596> what u think about this guys pfp

[pallid hemlock]

ya get him tf up

outta here

[rigid needle]

that name too

strange critters running around nowadays

[pallid hemlock]

corny 14 year old

[sand sedge]

Ban this guy please

But what do you call it, I don’t genuinely think he meant to much wrong by it.
He changes how the game is so much internally to see what works and what doesn’t.
If you look at how the game is now compared to a year ago it’s incomparable

Some for the better some for the worse

[zinc lance]

Sorry my daily noob question, Ive tried I think every piece of gear and I cant socket diamonds into anything. Is it a quest or something im missing?

[vapid oyster]

diamonds are used to trade for other gems now

[sand sedge]

Diamonds are no longer socketable, and now can be transformed into any gem

[vapid oyster]

you can't socket raw stats any more

[azure hawk]

Mostly for the worse, it seems

[zinc lance]

Gotcha where do I transform them?

[azure hawk]

At least what I read/hear

[zinc lance]

Sorry this game isnt easy to find answers to on google haha

[rigid needle]

bro reacted to my message but DIDNT ban him 😭 balright

[sand sedge]

Not really, some good changes have been made.
The only thing that makes this game fall off is the lack of priorities and bad balancing of characters

[sterile ridge]

We don't discuss moderation

[rigid needle]

go to treasurer merchant and click services

[sterile ridge]

The reaction is to let you know someone is working on it or looking into it

[sand sedge]

@rigid needle as far as I’m aware they are not able to outright ban people

[rigid needle]

my bad OG

[rigid needle]

ah

[vapid oyster]

I actually think character balance is much better than a year ago, but all the other changes are trash. Water map, faustian, pve mode, druid...

[zinc lance]

oh im blind as shit thanks

[rigid needle]

no worries

to be fair thats something you cant really find out easily

[sand sedge]

Water map should’ve been pushed to later to focus on fleshing out the foundation of stuff

I’m pretty sure we are not getting gathering hall this wipe at all

[vapid oyster]

water map should have been thrown in the trash when it was still a concept

[azure hawk]

Looking through patches and looking at opinions, it seems that the biggest con of this game is how it’s been turned from a dungeon adventure extraction thing to a pvp focused kill-fest.
Granted I have yet to start playing but it’s tough wanting to after hearing only negative things 😂

[sand sedge]

If anything it’s catered more to the adventure over the years

If it was anything like before, you would’ve had a rough time

The only real PvP tryhard centric thing added recently was arena

And I suppose Squires to Riches but I would say it appeals to newer players due to the fair grounds

[vapid oyster]

arena could be great but it's yet another thing they deliberately make trash by picking modules with a single lane and overwhelming number of pve mobs and tons of cheese spots for double jump

ah yes, another arena match that comes down the three of us looking at a rogue simply sit in an unreachable spot waiting to draw the match, it's that great

[pliant pike]

Almost same game as pc version

[severe coyote]

is this game actually still alive?

[pliant pike]

Mobile died today

[severe coyote]

haaaaaaaaaaa

[pliant pike]

Pc version maybe will live a year more

[severe coyote]

i guess they milked it for what little ammount and effort they could before closing it

i figured they'd look away now that they got the nexxon payout. I figure the CEO will decide it's better to rebrand and go invest elsewhere

[indigo ginkgo]

Thank you for this info mate, I didn't know either!

[indigo ginkgo]

Faustian is a good dimension of the game, but to only be able to do it on death on the current map is not so great.
Let us earn something that let's us activate from the start.

We do like the current crafting system to blues for many items, but would like to go higher in tier.
Next patch, craft up purples from scratch!

[slender turret]

Hey can someoneplay a game with me im an newbie

[neat quarry]

Anyone know when the upcoming wipe is

[slender turret]

8 days

from now

[neat quarry]

Is it true a lava map is coming ? And what’s the player population looking like

[slender turret]

not sure im pretty new

[slender turret]

You wanna play a quick goblin cave game

[indigo ginkgo]

Only the rarest weapons in the game have an 'active' magic ability. Giving them to a class of sword would be unbalanced.

[sonic maple]

Yo

[tawny finch]

PLEASE ARTIFACT ARENA

we only have a couple days left in wipe can you guys please just bless us with artifact unique non crafted arena please

[steel radish]

this game is cooked. running around in the dungeons and running into no one and no content for the wipe. we are done boys

[steady valve]

This has been confirmed as a coming event if you didnt know btw 🙂

[strange crag]

is this a serious game?

[whole raven]

guys, what are the odds of me being able to get demigod in 1 week without been playing for the last couple of months? 😄

guess I'll wait another 3 months before considering reinstalling, its gonna piss me off aye

[fluid tulip]

Depends on how much you can play, can easily do it in a week if you play a lot but if you only playing an hour a day not likely

[strange crag]

make a tutorial

[hoary hill]

HR stingray better drop rate for the egg? or does it not matter...

could use help killing bladehand for quest - anyone up for it?

[azure pasture]

how many seasons of beta are there holy... AND THEY STILL CANT MAKE IT EASY TO GET OUT OF WATER, GLITCHED TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE WATER JUST TO FUCKING DIE

[graceful oasis]

how long is this season? lasting?

[azure pasture]

7 days remaining

[graceful oasis]

oh

[azure pasture]

ye, new seasons the 29th

speculations of a new lava map next season also

[graceful oasis]

is it wipe again ?

[azure pasture]

hence the rewards from this season, and yeah its a wipe

[graceful oasis]

thats cool yeah ok I just came back tought there is more time to grind but I guess then in 7 days the grind beginns lol

[azure pasture]

haha yeah, idk if youve played the maelstrom map but its pretty cool, i like it. some dont some do

[graceful oasis]

I tryed it its a cool design

[azure pasture]

yeah but getting out the water is tedious if you have mobs on you

fucking annoying... lost a bunch of unique stuff just now cuz of it

[graceful oasis]

didnt now that it is buggy I found a boat in the middle of nowehere and just drove to shore

[azure pasture]

i was swimming

[graceful oasis]

xD

[vapid oyster]

it's UE5

[wispy sleet]

Do you have XMP or expo enabled

[feral snow]

Extreme Memory Profile? nah i dont, the expo either, first time i hear bout them

[wispy sleet]

Most ram kits support it, you can go into your bios and enable it for huge performance gains

Use xmp for intel and expo for amd cpu

[noble flicker]

wich cpu do u have?

[feral snow]

i have ddr3 1600mhz ram dobeit... intel i7 4770k

[noble flicker]

ddr3?

bro ur setup old as shit

[wispy sleet]

😂

[cloud walrus]

what gear limit is next arena??

[feral snow]

yeah idc runs hunt fine unlike dark and darker smhow

[wispy sleet]

Ddr3 can run XMP

[noble flicker]

idk try low video settings and and cap fps to idk 30 or something

[cloud walrus]

where i can find info about the event of arena?

[outer grail]

unrestricted meaning unique and artifacts. orrrrr squire :)

[noble flicker]

if u use Win 11 deboat ur system it could help

[midnight zealot]

when are they fixing the fps for trios/duos

[ruby wind]

Hello, I've returned to this game. Well, I'll be back today, I suppose, but I wanted to know if this game has plans to return, or if I should just give up on playing again.

[fluid tulip]

Wipe shortly. On the 29th. Should be popping after wipe for a short period if nothing else. Game is what you make of it tho.

[stuck fjord]

Easiest way to get to demigod from scratch? LOL

[fluid tulip]

HR water map was easiest for me. Lots of easy extracts. Just loot up and get out. Should be able to get 2-500 app pretty easily per run

[muted void]

Loot up and leave

[stuck fjord]

HR PvE Count?

[fluid tulip]

Destroy boxes and barrels too I think is AP

It does but you get way less AP

[stuck fjord]

Ofcourse ofcourse lol, appreciate ya'll, gonna try my best

[fluid tulip]

Good luck 👍

[slender turret]

Real lol

yo i need a teammate

[ashen grove]

Water map is fun idk why ppl hate on it

[sonic maple]

Use lfg channel

[ashen grove]

Water map arena 👀

[sonic maple]

Remove arena 👀

[slender turret]

Thx

[random cargo]

just sell the game already

[rigid needle]

fun doesnt mean good

its horrible for pvp

[sonic maple]

Fun for solo not so much trios but you can say that for every map ngl

[acoustic kiln]

add paladin

[steady valve]

There is smite + divine protection Cleric 😅?

Im no Dungeons and Dragons expert, so whats the difference 😭?

[acoustic kiln]

no add paladin

[steady valve]

Hahaha I think they may eventually have that in the scope but probably not for a couple more classes I would assume 😅

[tranquil salmon]

is this game wiping soon

[steady valve]

Yes! Wipe is scheduled for the 29th 🙂

(Of this month) xd

[tranquil salmon]

sick

[hardy stump]

cleric is bonky paladin is slashy

come to think of it, hybrid platelock is more of a paladin than smite dp cleric

[indigo wagon]

2 loser druids running around HR solo teaming what else is new

[sonic maple]

eww

[lime pine]

Only 2? That's new

[sonic maple]

not even an entire zoo

[charred cosmos]

How can I report a player that robbed me of full chests for an Egg?

He was a druid

[vapid oyster]

lol

[charred cosmos]

With a long name that was nust random numbers and letters.

[icy halo]

theyre not really planning in losing gear in arena are they?

[mortal crest]

servers glitched? we d/c twice from lich and sent back to tavern

[elfin fern]

yeah i'm stuck too

[manic cliff]

Oh yeah, this next wipe's gonna be insane bois

[wanton garnet]

Do we gonna have dwarven dungeon map next season

[lime pine]

You meant we will get 5 damage for axe specialization? Or god forbid 3? Man I'm stoked

[languid shore]

Vote up pls!

7 DAYS

[brave gazelle]

are any queues valid anymore? I've struggled to find other players for several games

[manic cliff]

WE'LL BE MONKING AROUND IN 1 WEEK FAM

[lavish shoal]

crazy to think 2 years ago dad had 500k views from blooprint and is now down to 2k players
if they did nothing to their game it would be in a better state

[lavish shoal]

80/20 that not actual content will come from this wipe

[manic cliff]

that's total fake news

[silver smelt]

💯

7more days

[whole raven]

which class to go from 0 to demi in a week? Warlock is a strong contestant aye?

[deft sentinel]

Just bought Redstone shards and they didnt hit my acc.... What do I do?

[warm nova]

https://darkanddarker.featureupvote.com/suggestions/689857/suggestion-to-improve-wipe-schedule-and-server-reopening

[weary ridge]

first mistake is buying redstone shards. scooping water out of a sinking ship.

[minor shore]

Is it too late to grind for season rewards?

[deft sentinel]

i needed $5 for the frost cloak... said y not and didnt even get them

[weary ridge]

yikes. guess you got scammed. jokes aside, give it some time, and if it doesn't show up, open a ticket with them.

[weary ridge]

tm warlock on ice cave can get you there quick.

[rough dust]

i think we are getting hell level for goblin caves, volcanic theme due to latest communit annoucements

[abstract hazel]

Adding more maps is always good we need more queues

[subtle goblet]

Stingray going to be pretty hard swimming through lava ngl

[azure hawk]

This is the only playstyle that’s fun

Getting called slurs after coming out of nowhere and killing someone as a panther in 2 hits is the most rewarded I’ve ever felt

[mental garden]

guys, we're getting a lot of feedback that combat feels like it's underwater all the time, slow and so forth. i think the solution is clear. make a water map that's even slower.

people will literally kill themselves out of fear of boredom on entry to the level. it's genius.

[tawny shore]

I find that in most of my barbarian encounters i end up just using the felling axe because spacing with the bardiche is a lil tough when you move so slow

[sonic maple]

[tawny shore]

I suppose i should start dex maxxing then

I think 30-40% action speed would require a lot of gear

Getting 3 tapped by a longsword in S2R is rough

Perhaps its because i'm using war sacrifice when i should just use achilles or savage roar

War sacrifice just seemed to nice, thought i'd try it

[languid blaze]

will the winter cloak be available without a bundle? I would feel scamed cause I bought the hole bundle already

[junior sand]

Finally SDF announced Druid is no longer a class, being replaced by Monk. Big ass W

[mental garden]

i love lagging for 5-7 seconds at a time in pvp combat on a 6 thousand dollar pc

[gusty sentinel]

games boring new map is just delaying the inevitable

[vapid oyster]

war sac aint shit

[charred scaffold]

any update on what this new season is gonna be about?

[subtle goblet]

Is there anything in #📢announcements ?

[azure hawk]

Damn there are so many holes in the geometry on goblin caves, I just went from the big elevator room to the top corner of the map just through the walls in rat form

[vapid oyster]

ya it's almost like the maps weren't designed to be played on by tiny players

who could have seen these problems coming, impossible!

[azure hawk]

I take it you don’t like Druid

[vapid oyster]

it's just funny how predictable the problems are, it's the same as when double jump was released and suddenly the game was just rogues everywhere on top of ruins and shit

omg how could this happen

[mental garden]

That's been a major issue in several extraction games, with rogue having an excessively high escape rate. Since they aren't good at game design, and never will be, I'd expect this to continue

[azure hawk]

Have they not updated maps to account for anything? It seems like you’re right in that they’re introduced without much forethought

I hope Ryan’s game is good, looks promising

Also I find it funny how, it seems, that since Druid came out the only changes are that the rat squeaks automatically and the panther can’t dash in water haha

[weary wave]

CHANGE ARTIFACT ARENA!!!!!!!!!!!

WE WANT TO KEEP OUR ITEMS!!!

[radiant notch]

nothing is worth anything

no way to make money rn i have to spend 2 hours to farm 6k gold

[slow scaffold]

Go farm egg easy 200k

[radiant notch]

is that true bruh

how much is it rn

[slow scaffold]

It’s hard and annoying but people buying it for alot

Easily a couple artifacts

[radiant notch]

ya but id have to learn stingray and that boss is cancer

and eevryone is always fighting

[slow scaffold]

I taught someone in a hour how to do it

[radiant notch]

do i need to be warlock

[slow scaffold]

No fighter is best and easiest

[radiant notch]

wait how much are stingray eggs rn

[slow scaffold]

To learn atleast

[slow scaffold]

Idk the exact amount sorry :/ ik they will make us some money tho

[smoky jetty]

😭

[loud moat]

BRING BACK STATIC MAPS

[magic sleet]

wasted 6k

[viral loom]

do ropes not work in zone in frost map? or is that a bug

[tawny shore]

So is potion chugger worth running? 20% more healing for 50% less duration seems like not the best deal. Does it work with all potions?

I haven't tried it yet so i think i'll give it a shot

[brazen pike]

it's pretty nice since it makes potions heal significantly quicker

[short sleet]

yes and it is really good

[mental garden]

not at all, it's an amazing and tyrannical machine on every other game, application and everything else

[short sleet]

try to bring in some troll blood as well

potion+troll blood you heal like 3hp in 1s

[foggy venture]

buying a deathblom hmu

[weary wave]

fix artifact arena por favor

lowkey wanna run a artifact kit

[whole garden]

Make wizard great again and introduce casino in this game or if both things aren't done close the game!

[tropic moat]

so they aint gonna change arena back for the wipe ??

[halcyon crown]

nerf wizard

[meager marsh]

space map or is the game still dead

Get out of here laliberte

No

[pure bolt]

Wizard is busted.

[brittle barn]

As if true invis wasnt broken enough does it really have to break fucking mob aggro? nothing more cringe than fighting a rogue who aggros 20 mobs and just hits invis once and now they fight for him perma

[flat juniper]

So, the first bit of news regarding the wipe is just cosmetics, got it

[bitter karma]

Hi All! I dont mean to be a bother but I just got the game and I just needed some help learning it.

[fiery narwhal]

best chance usually is the lfg tab here in discord hard game to learn without someone to play with at first will burn you out but with pve im sure that might be different now

[bitter karma]

Oh okayy thank you so much for the help Im getting into new types of games and this seemed very interesting ! I will check that out see if I can land on a kind soul lol!

[lavish gust]

who tf is paul 😭

[misty urchin]

clown moment

[dense berry]

Run

[bitter karma]

Run?!

[plush vapor]

yes

[tawny finch]

Making arena hardcore is the dumbest thing ever let’s make it so u lose your gear but u can run anything

[lavish gust]

can't message people you meet
can't play as a party above 2.2k mmr
can only play HC arena with premade parties of three

[nova jetty]

The pay-to-winners are gonna be in full stride for the Hardcore Arena 😂

[tawny finch]

I wanted to run my artifacts what the fuck

[random knot]

hardcore arena and its just slop

nope you lose your items:) (people will play this game)

[tawny finch]

No item restrictions losing team will lose gear have to be premade teams of 3

[dense berry]

Yes. Game is dying. Population in the gutter. Developers absolutely disconnected from playerbase building a "vision" literally nobody asked for. Its fun for a few hours until you realize you need to put in 2000 more hours to be decent.

[tawny shore]

Man potion chugger really is crazy

[kind pawn]

the fuck are they thinking, you lose ur shit when you lose? thats the most bonkers ass shiet ive ever heard, its just a worse HR

[nova jetty]

2000 hours to be decent is crazy

[tawny finch]

Absolutely the dumbest thing ever I was so excited to play arena tomorrow and now I’m not even gonna hop on loss of another player because they just can’t do anything right

[coarse cedar]

People don’t even care to clown emote your updates anymore. How does that feel?

[sharp bramble]

i will play squire lol

[copper lava]

No point hoarding your item right before the wipe. Stream going to be really fun to watch .

[dense berry]

Surely some can get there in far less. I know i haven't

[proven swallow]

What is the point of the arena if we lose all the items anyway, dumb idea

[tawny finch]

Would have been nice to use my artifacts without losing them in arena but no let’s just make it so nobody at all plays arena

[bitter karma]

Oh okay I see that sounds like a lot of work lol but i mean its fun right?

[kind pawn]

fr fr

[lavish gust]

What hoarded items, this primarily caters to gold buyers

[tawny finch]

MAKE IT SO WE DONT LOSE OUR ITEMS IN ARENA

[untold lily]

dos sdf know what fun is wipe evnt is for fun lol is he not smart

[vast kayak]

Glad that we got to have SSF Epic cap Arena for a while. That was fun. See you in a week.

[pallid hemlock]

all 9 people in arena are gonna have blast in the event! its gonna suck for whichever team has to wait fo the other two to finish fighting tho :/

[frozen gazelle]

yo @glad thunder @zinc sparrow @little summit how do you guys miss with every single update? get @pulsar ocean or @shell ermine to review every update from this point forth, please and thank you.

[dense berry]

At first

[main raven]

Just remove "primarily", I'm pretty sure this ONLY applies to gold buyers lmao

[tawny finch]

MAKE IT SO WE DONT LOSE OUR ITEMS IN ARENA KEEP THE NO ITEM RESTRICTION

[lavish gust]

Hey, there's also streamers getting items gifted by gold buyers

[main raven]

I mean, thats the same thing really lmao

[lavish gust]

no kidding

[willow barn]

games dih 💔 🥀

[main raven]

honestly why not Squire Arena, or making the drop rate of high-tier items insanely high so people can actually play with the cool artifacts at the end of wipe?

[sonic nest]

is the lose items you get to loot the loser or the items are sent to the void?

[bitter karma]

I think I still want to try it at least. I havent played this type of game before I believe

[inland blade]

Increasing or decreasing redstone ?

[shell ermine]

I'll think about it

[dense berry]

By all means. Don't let me being salty stop you

[plush vapor]

stfu

[willow barn]

🔥

[untold lily]

chip stop rating and fix the game

[tawny finch]

They clearly want this game to die why would they want anyone to have fun

[rapid halo]

Arena sucks anyway, play the real game

[bitter karma]

I take it you have been playing for a while?

[main raven]

seems pretty clear to me. the only way any company would deliberately make these kinds of decisions back to back is if they're intentionally trying to sabo their own game

[pallid hemlock]

gg the game

[dense berry]

Only maybe 1200 hours. Others have played far longer.

[obtuse ocean]

Literal jokers making this game

[tawny finch]

It’s clear to everyone why the fuck can’t we have artifact arena tomorrow but NOT lose the gear absolutely clowns

[willow barn]

it had so much potential, RIP game

[main raven]

you know its not great when I have to say Tarkov has better updates than this game lmao

[bitter karma]

Holy fuck! lol I have that many hours playing like FPS lol trying to learn something new lol

[tawny finch]

Artifact arena was so much fun and they just ruin it I don’t get it

[pallid hemlock]

...

[ornate hornet]

Where is the separate news feed for the Redstone info?

[tawny finch]

Not a soul will be on arena who wants to lose their gear in 3s

[bitter karma]

Yes i know lol

[sonic nest]

[tawny finch]

No mobs no item restrictions is all we ask and they’re like let’s just make it u have to be in a premade 3 man and if u lose u lose your kit

[lavish gust]

[sonic nest]

any idea what happens to the lost items?

[main raven]

premade three-man AND you lose your kit on death lmao

[untold lily]

this game had the most potential then most game it could've rival tarkok and i can see it being top 10 games out but sdf want to make a game that he only likes

[tawny finch]

Literally the worst update I’ve ever seen I’d rather axe spec get changed again

[willow barn]

its actually incredible how they managed to ruin it so much

[tawny finch]

I was actually so stoked to play arena made like a 60k kit for my db and it’s for nothing I’m gonna go lose it to Chinese rmt wall hacker

[brittle barn]

Wait so why would anyone play this new arena event lmao

[tropic moat]

lmaoooo this game is gonna be dead ash this wipe

[tawny finch]

I wanted to enjoy some lad and db arena and they just decide to ruin it for everyone I don’t understand

[tawny finch]

If u won and u received the other teams gear id be all for it

[brittle barn]

Doesnt sound like that tho lol

[plush vapor]

i thought the event was gonna be an actual event

[tropic moat]

whole point of arena is to have fun with your kits and they just killed arena lmao

[tawny finch]

Like u get to just pick a kit or something that I could understand

[plush vapor]

nothingburger season

[terse marsh]

all risk no reward

[frozen gazelle]

good boy

[tawny finch]

They made it so u have to have premade 3man which is horrible I have no other friends to play with

[real idol]

WATER MAP IS AWFUL

[shell ermine]

🐶 😏 ruff ruff

[main raven]

There's two separate, entirely different reasons not to play Arena at all during this "event"

[tawny finch]

It’s not an event it’s a push to get the 3k players to be 0k players

[main raven]

I'm pretty sure that one end of wipe event in Tarkov that replaced all Scavs with Scav Raiders was more fun than this shit

[brittle barn]

Would be fun if it was just any gear goes, dont loose items

[tropic moat]

they hate that arena is the most played game mode so they just kill it

[real idol]

CHIPPPPP

[tawny finch]

Like why the fuck would they do that NOBODY WANTS TO LOSE THEIR GEAR NOBODY WILL PLAY ARENA CHANGE IT BEFORE ARENA DROPS TOMORROW

[main raven]

reminds me of when sub-25s was the most played game mode so they killed that too

[untold lily]

u will make more gold runing the name in hr 02h then u will in a Arena is that not just dumb

[tawny finch]

PREMADE TEAM AND LOSING TEAM LOSES GEAR NEEDS CHANGED

[charred fjord]

boycott arena

[tawny finch]

start a riot this is bullshit

I’ve been hoping for artifact arena for what 2 wipes now and they just RUIN EVERYTHING

[tropic moat]

i havent been playing this ass of a game since the arena changes and now its worst lmao

[brittle barn]

Literally dont need to. No one will be in it lmao

[warm olive]

No premade teams, No losing gear, use all your best stuff, artifacts included... how it should be. losing your gear sucks for arena fr. and all the homies quit playing so no pre made teams for me, all my giga arena kits dont matter now

[winter ember]

Why is every update such a nothing burger holy fk please give me a reason to come back it’s been months

[wise tartan]

Check back in a week when the wipe drops sir.

[wooden crescent]

@glad thunder online in your arena will be VEEEEERY big

[empty mauve]

If you gain nothing out of it, why risk gear on this arena "event" if you can still run (and gain new gear) for 3 days in pvp?
It should at the very least give you the enemies gear. 100% risk 0 reward. Make it make sense. (SPREAD THE WORD)

[frozen gazelle]

real talk. have you or any of the other creators tried to contact the devs about the obvious mistakes they’ve made over the years? and potentially given guidance as to what needs to happen? or are they just blatantly ignorant or arrogant, or are they just fully oblivious?

[real idol]

NO ONE GIVES A FUCK

[brittle barn]

Well the problem isnt the "Devs" its the "Dev" who bottlenecks and fks everything (SDeeeeF)

[winter ember]

They aren’t oblivious at all they know very well what they’re doing. Extreme arrogance and incompetence.

[brittle barn]

also banning the word SDF is crazy work lmao

[frozen gazelle]

there ya go.

[real idol]

its probably definitely all PARTYCHIPS fault

[shell ermine]

I sit in the partner chat and permanently list issues with the game, I run polls on youtube and post screenshots of 75% of the playerbase saying they don't like druid and stopped playing cause of it. Other people do it to but a lot of them went to apogea past week or two

[acoustic kiln]

add paladin

[frozen gazelle]

yep. crazy. they’ve been sitting on a literal goldmine for ages but they’re just incompetent

[shell ermine]

Literally

[winter ember]

Ayyy my favourite obese youtuber what’s upppp

[shell ermine]

Balright

[tropic moat]

i hate to say it but hopefully this game drops to 50 players and sdf can learn a lesson on how not to ruin a game

[brittle barn]

Speaking of Druid OP, i just killed a DB rogue on my druid. Was that you my lil bug?

[tawny finch]

FDS CAN WE PLEASE REMOVE THE LOSE OF GEAR FOR ARENA ITS ALL RISK 0 REWARD REMOVE IT NOW WE WANT TO PLAY ARENA AND U RUIN EVERYTHING

[plush vapor]

you're*

[rigid aurora]

yo this gotta be the worst idea so far bro. @shell ermine this gotta be your fault some how lil gup

[soft kayak]

@shell ermine someone needs to do something

[shell ermine]

Participation is limited to pre-made parties of three players, and no monsters will appear on any map. There are no item entry restrictions, and defeated teams will lose all of their items.

Can you loot the enemies if you win? @zinc sparrow

[hardy tiger]

he is NOT responding to u lil bro

[brittle barn]

Problem is they would have to design an entire loot distribution system from scratch to make that work, so they 100% did not do that and therefore we will not get enemies kits @shell ermine

[real idol]

Yeah IDK Chip running this game into the ground

[brittle barn]

Because they cant let you loot them as soon as they die, it has to be upon a defeat

[rigid aurora]

im chipping it on cam if they revert the lose all

[real idol]

He's chipping out!!

[hardy tiger]

link ur cringe edit chip

[cosmic raven]

Guys ngl if no one plays arena they’ll just never do a change like this. If everyone still plays it tho we’ll probably just see this again

[rigid aurora]

Imagine how happy and positive the community would be if before arena releases tomorrow they revert the lose all change. Someone should hire me @zinc sparrow

[stoic shadow]

wE FOUND AN AXE

why tf do we lose kits on arena loss now??? that has to dumbest change ive seen yet

[small elbow]

agreed, dumb, I'd rather lose my kit in the dungeon if it's gonna be lost

[normal shard]

It's all a part of the "vision" lmao

[abstract hazel]

The Lava is apart of the vision 😌

[eager comet]

i remember being a 500 hour andy a year ago and being so excited and having so much faith in sdf

[charred fjord]

squires to nothing arena then i guess killing a full kit team with squire kits hahaha then looks like

[normal shard]

I wouldn't have faith in him making me a sandwich.

[eager comet]

then he fkd match making, and hardcore, and he fkd norms, and now hes fkd arena TWICE in one season

[solemn umbra]

so you lose your stuff?

[dense pawn]

Wtf... So IM finally removes mobs from arena, which has been heavily requested from day 1 arena... BUT... You lose all your gear now 🤯

I won't be surprised if they bring back arena mobs next wipe because of low player count in THIS arena test... 🙃

[eager comet]

i made a 60k sorc lego kit for arena just for it to be epic sff only

[charred fjord]

a friend had said in reddit that hardcore arena leaked was you lose your stuff was true

[solemn umbra]

this shit sucks why experement now?

[charred fjord]

i just didnt believe they would do such a worthless move

[acoustic tundra]

Holy shit , 9k hours on this game and they still make the most stupidest changes.

[eager comet]

whats funny is you know no1 reads this thread so the patch is gonna go through

[brazen pike]

when else would you do an arena event where you use all of the wealth and gear you've gathered over the course of a wipe to compete in arena than the last weekend before it wipes and a new season starts?

[solemn umbra]

they could care less what everyone thinks

[acoustic tundra]

I dead ass rather run my nameds in raid and have fun to try and get more lmaoo so dumb

[eager comet]

imagine losing ur BiS kit in a couple arena games, then what.... YOU DONT PLAY THE GAME

[solemn umbra]

do they even try to make this game playable

[brazen pike]

you pull out the next because you've had an entire season to build wealth

[nova jetty]

Terrible idea for sure. But I understand where they are coming from.

• end of wipe
• ppl got extra gear to lose
• ppl got moneybags

The pre-made requirement is cuz random queue would’ve been toxic as hell.

Shoulda made it so that you won one of the enemies gearsets instead.

[eager comet]

not many people have tons of named items and BiS kits like us tho

[dense pawn]

I have been waiting for no mob arena since arena day 1... And now it's not even worth playing.

[upbeat haven]

Start of a wipe maybe, before anyone has items so they can see if people even interact with it

[brazen pike]

then I guess they won't be interested in the event that was called "hardcore arena" for the past month, either way 3 days later their gear gets wiped too when the next season starts

[subtle birch]

AHHHHH IT BEGINS. SERVER MAINTENANCE. HOPE YOU PUT YOUR KITS IN YOUR STASH BECAUSE THEY MIGHT GET DELETED

[nova jetty]

Vast majority of players don’t build wealth like that.

I’m 3k hours in. I had max 10 mill at once. But now? Nah. I just spend whatever I got and run it. Other than to buy arena gear and religion, there’s no use in having crazy wealth.

Just get a DB as a backup stash and run your bank every raid. As long as you’re good you’ll be net positive.

[loud moat]

yo wrong discord chud ur spose to message them in the creator only one

[eager comet]

u cant say its a good decision tho

[subtle birch]

Sounds like someone who doesn't have the Head of The Midnight Stag. A poor peasant

[pliant sapphire]

You must rmt a fck ton if you had 10 mil are you ok in the head?

[meager ocean]

im gonna huff a harpys fart ong

[high gale]

poor

[edgy salmon]

If you can farm artifacts from bosses it’s not that hard to believe somebody might 9-5 this game like it’s their job

[nova jetty]

Nah back before they shut it down there were gambling streams.

I can farm and get up to a mil if I want to but the inventory management is just dumb. Artifact farming is easy af.

I’ve also made a good bit by playing the market before while I do work from home.

[subtle birch]

Sure. It's just sad and kinda pathetic

[edgy salmon]

Yes

[brazen pike]

I think it's interesting, I'd like to see who comes out #1 on the leaderboard for the event since it'll be whoever has the most kits saved up and the skill to make them last

no different to me than hosting an invite only tournament other than the fact that anyone can technically participate if they want

[high gale]

a viola is worth like at least 300k rn, its not impossible or even too hard to get 1+mil

[solemn umbra]

if you play trios i guess but most play solo

[pliant sapphire]

Brother are we in the gambling era ? This arena bs is now there is actually no way you had 10 mil during this wipe without rmting or no lifing this game 🤣🤣

[subtle birch]

TRIOS ARE FOR COWARDS WHO CANT STAND ON THEIR OWN. REAL CHADS PLAY SOLO

[nova jetty]

I never said this wipe?

[charred fjord]

Just nobody play arena that's it in sure when there is literally nobody and 30 mins waits I'm sure they will change that it's so bad like who comes up with these ideas or plans smh 😤😲🤔

[pliant sapphire]

Sure if you want to grind for hours for a kit to lose with absolutely nothing to gain then by all means play that dog game mode 🤣🤣

[nova jetty]

I do most artifact farming solo. Quicker that way cuz you can just squire it. Deaths mean zip so u just queue up again.

[high gale]

true, then run red, its what i do on cleric

[solemn umbra]

most of the player base dosent know how to i would guess

[loud moat]

somehow @zinc sparrow is an even worse community manager than the previous horrible ones

[nova jetty]

Idrk what you’re talking about. Genuinely confused.

[nova jetty]

Yup. Easiest shiii

[nova jetty]

Just learn ghost king and buy hella bandages. If it’s a dead sever, I can get an HR GK kill in once every 12-15 mins.

[charred fjord]

Bruh I killed the dragon like 20 times the past 2 days and no artifact

[solemn umbra]

i did ghost 60 times this wipe and only got 2 artifacts, but i think i just got unlucky

[subtle birch]

IVE LITERALLY NEVER KILLED A BOSS HOLLER AT YA BOI

[silent tinsel]

I thought I can have fun by playing with Artifacts at the end of the wipe at least no concerns to cheaters
If they didn't give me that push of fun I guess I'll take my hand of from this game again!

[nova jetty]

Dragon is lower drop rate than GK.

If you’re looking for speed when it comes to money, GK farming is fastest. Think it’s double the drop rate of dragon. And even more so for lich/warlord.

[high gale]

its 6% for drop

so yeah just a tad

[nova jetty]

If you can kill GK in 15 mins you’re guaranteed an artifact every 5-6 hours.

So whenever I play I just do it while I wait for my groups to form.

[charred fjord]

Dragon has a better drop rate and the frozen key room had a higher drop rate then GK unless it changed

[high gale]

changed a while ago

idk abt key room but drag is 3 gk is 6%

[nova jetty]

The drop rates used to be high but GK has always been the highest.

Now, GK is highest by a long shot - followed by dragon - lich/warlord - skull key room - dual boss rooms

[limber acorn]

Circus Arena

[near pecan]

Man just make it so in arena you get your opponents loot

[solemn umbra]

i got a famine and soulscraper over the span of months and in my experience its better to just play solos

[solemn umbra]

you dont get the loot?

[limber acorn]

agree

[near pecan]

you lose your gear if you die and you dont get their gear

[nova jetty]

Yeah artifact farming isn’t my prime way of making money really. I make most of mine off arena gear as of recently, but I’ll also farm up crafting ingredients like the Banshee drop.

[solemn umbra]

why play then?

[limber acorn]

yeah！

[near pecan]

only rank and arena perks ig idk

[valid wren]

WHY TF WOULD U LOSE THE GEAR IF U LOSE IN ARENA THE WHOLE POINT IS FOR PVP

[solemn umbra]

they dont think

[limber acorn]

why play then！！！

[nova jetty]

Just don’t play. Thats the best you can do to send the message.

[limber acorn]

fuck sdf

[solemn umbra]

i agree

[nova jetty]

Even if you do play, the credit card gamers are gonna be dominating with artifacts and full unique sets.

[near pecan]

just imagine how cool would it be so you fight and its kinda like a risk all your gear but you also get the chance to fight for the opponents gear, it has really no downsides, pairment is random, its just like a buckshot roulette of gear

[charred fjord]

First time heard this

[indigo wagon]

Boss still doesent drop enough tho. Idk how all these artifacts are spawning…

[nova jetty]

There’s a link that has every current drop rate somewhere in the Reddit threads. Think you can find it if ya google.

It’s more up to date than the wiki. Seems like the wiki just gave up

[trail flicker]

How do they plan to save this game? Where will new players come from? Is it something like adding it to consoles that might do it some good with heavy advertising?

[near pecan]

they have to make dark and darker 2

[indigo wagon]

They just legit do not care.. sadly. Best game ever they refuse to balance and manage it tho. Just Q up and die to a Druid in an expensive kit you grinded hours for

[limber acorn]

This game has really disappointed me. It’s actually a great game, but every update only results in further disappointment. This time, I simply can’t see any reason to play the Arena mode anymore.

[trail flicker]

People complaining about the arena that is onlya ctive over a THREE day span are actually being dumb. THey want to test so let them. Just dont play and get a life etc play arc raiders and then come back later

[valid wren]

@zinc sparrow PLEASE DONT RELEASE ARENA WHERE U LOSE GEAR

[indigo wagon]

Alot of first timers in here 😭 welcome

[nova jetty]

Nah they just need to make it more balanced and versatile.

This games fanbase is loyal and they’ll come back (no matter how much they’ll whine.) they just need good gameplay and progression.

I hope they didn’t waste resources on a new map… they need updates to spells, abilities, and perks.

[trail flicker]

They did that twice already it was basically same game but without random modifiers -_-

[indigo wagon]

Arena gets worse every update.they need to leave it blue only @zinc sparrow Until end of season then do artifacts allowed with item retrieval

[floral pendant]

NOONE playing that arena event lmfaoooo

[nova jetty]

PvP during that time felt CRISP I’m ngl.

Looting and everything else wasn’t great…

BUT THE PVP FELT SO GOOOOD

[floral pendant]

that or purples, everyone agrees, they wont listen though for some reason

[stone panther]

sweaty RMT's that got a whole tab of artifacts stored will. The whole point of it for them

[minor snow]

plastic mallet is the worst game development company ever to exist and its not even close

[valid wren]

@zinc sparrow PLEASE REVERT ARENA CHANGES WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ALL RISK NO REWARD D:

[trail flicker]

I dont agree with any of that, really. They definitely need new maps, not the experimental type, fix the water map, easy to do really and just keep the theme, then i guess i DO agree with FINISHING THE CHARACTERS for sure. Druid imcomplete, same for warlock, many other things. The ehting you said about the pvp being good doesnt even make sense. "smooth" wtf does that even MEAN? You have to actually say something about it not just say 'smooth ngl' wtf

[near pecan]

i remember when sorc came out and lighting storm was broken so everyone was 1 shotting everything for like a straight day lol

[indigo wagon]

Purple only is too high of gear score. Demon glee and spectra blade are game ruining. Requiem also too good. Game only plays good in blues. Simple as that.

[limber acorn]

This game has gotten worse and worse over the past two years, and the company responsible for its operation has truly disappointed me.

[floral pendant]

wat then why were the top players wizards and sorcerers lmfao

[nova jetty]

Definitely need maps. But with their teams limitations, they can’t focus in on everything.

Gameplay first - finishing mg classes. Make that good. Make pvp good.

Then add new map which can add new PvP elements to balance .

[limber acorn]

no

[trail flicker]

This games FANBASE is not coming back until official release day, im 100% sure. its dead until then. Ill do squires to riches a few times a week but mostly arc raiders, working harder in real life, i joined USTA, but i really want to quit all that and just play dark and darker a year from now once its 'done'

[floral pendant]

noone uses crafted gear in pvp alot/arena adds a reason to craft and do quests for purples/purples have widely already been agreed upon to be the most balanced of all, blues just mean true dmg wins no matter what.

[trail flicker]

Demons glee cant do anything against a wizard fyabaw ing you 10 times to the dome

holy fk my next wizard name is fyabaw i cant bleive i didnt think of that until just now im a n00b

HEY LISTEN my arc raiders gamer tag is VeNjunse#7888 add me for video gam ing amirite

[limber acorn]

In fact, if he simply strengthened the measures to deal with cheaters, the game could once again see over 30,000 players online.

[stone panther]

the biggest problem is the gap. The next step from currently blue's is uncapped HR.
where purp is pretty much useless against geared up players. Making the craftables useless and expensive

they need to pick a rarity for each pool and then add top pool craftables for each of them. Or dont even bother

[near pecan]

Problem with fixing a game is whenever you fix something like a dark and darker game you break many other things, there's too many variables in the equation, basically for example fixing something fucked up with rogue maybe breaks something with druid, but also breaks something with the items in castle, but also breaks arena pvp, and so on and so on, fixing bugs in this game must be hell, its the problem with online games and adding new maps, what i would do is rotational maps for each season, so that way you can focus on fixing the maps for that season instead just trying to fix everything at once

[trail flicker]

This is completely false. I almost never see cheaters in any capacity and even if that was the case it wold be getting them zero players back. Not sure why people literally lie about some cheater problem

[grand swallow]

Hardcore arena needed to be pre made is not good 🙁

[limber acorn]

@trail flicker Let me tell you a secret: at least half of the players in Tokyo’s third-ranked ranks are using cheating techniques to gain an advantage. You haven’t encountered any of them yet simply because your equipment is poor.

[trail flicker]

Goda damnit why is everyoen saying things that are objectively wrong. How could fixing rogue ruin a druid? Just spouting nonsense like the other complainers. You can tjust pretend balance is bad if you have no reason for it

[grand swallow]

Maybe have like a armor rating requirement for hardcore arena

[brazen pike]

[bold tendon]

I have to lose my armor in the arena because I lost? Seriously?

[grand swallow]

Harecore arena should have armor rating requirement for random queue

[trail flicker]

Not sure what you mean by any of that, but you wont be able to offer any real words towards it. My gear is better than yours by far and i havent played in two months, kid.

[grand swallow]

Like 500 rating

[limber acorn]

At present, at least a quarter of the daily active users are experienced cheaters, all of whom are Chinese and profit from this behavior.

[near pecan]

I said bug wise not balance wise, Im not complaining about the classes im saying as a dev you can fix something and fuck another thing

[grand swallow]

I have no friends i solo only 🙁

[floral pendant]

maybe in your china servers yeah but widely cheats are not a problem. the game is dead because the developers are horrible and do not optimize, add content, etc

[trail flicker]

Yeah anyone that likes the doja cat song isnt very bright so im okay with it

[bold tendon]

man..

[limber acorn]

I spend $300 every month on equipment purchases. I have more experience dealing with cheaters than you do.

[near pecan]

[trail flicker]

What does equipement purchases mean? You might, but cheaters are not a problem then acording to you right?

[dreamy cove]

@limber acorn you must suck really bad then

[limber acorn]

You’re right; the rampant cheating in China has ruined this game. But even more crucial is the terrible management of the game over the past two years.，fuck，sdf

[solemn umbra]

you buy gear?

[charred fjord]

Thank you I guess I'll focus more on GK

[solemn umbra]

just play the game

[limber acorn]

I don’t have that much time to accumulate equipment; I buy it just to make the gameplay easier, nothing more.

[trail flicker]

Some player told me they were cheating and that is how they know i was cheating. I'm just really really good at the game though. Like wow, god said "hey, ur amazing at everything" like gee, thanks god what do i say to that

[solemn umbra]

still kinda weird

[solemn umbra]

you do you tho

[near pecan]

what ruined this game is streamers getting 800k free kits

and teamers in hr 🙂

[limber acorn]

You don’t understand: many Chinese cheaters use cheating to obtain high-value equipment. Sometimes, they can even get $200 in a single day.

[uncut stump]

@glad thunder MAKE IT SO WE CAN LOOT THEIR ITEMS LAST ROUND

[grand swallow]

@glad thunder make hardcore arena be able to queue up with randoms but have a armor rating limit like 500

I have no friends and i wanna play arena its my fav mode

[pallid hemlock]

i get it now 🤣 🤣

[grand swallow]

I was building unique kits for arena and now i cant since it has to be pre made

[limber acorn]

It’s the company and their development team that are ruining this game. It had so much potential, and I really loved it. However, every update has been terrible—this has been the case for the past two years.

[grand swallow]

@glad thunder make hardcore arena queue random

Armor rating limit 500

[near pecan]

How would you fix the game according to you because so far I only heard the cheating problem in china servers, but other than that what else

[grand swallow]

Every one would play

[leaden peak]

they better give us monk class on next seassion as they said they where going to

[pallid hemlock]

i think they said the opposite #sdfs-kitchen message

[dreamy cove]

@glad thunder make us win their gear or lose all players lol what are you doing, I have 5k hours and this is the worst thing you’ve ever done next to removing random stats on the gear

[leaden peak]

so they lie on twitch stream lol

[grand swallow]

Make hardcore be able to queue up with randoms wtf just have armor rating limit like 500 or 600

Im sure trolls wont be able to just have 20 green bandages or blue

[limber acorn]

It cannot be overlooked that this game has a huge market in China. The immediate goals are to increase the number of daily active players, to facilitate new players’ ongoing participation in the game, and to encourage existing players to remain active and engaged. That’s basically it. First, add more entertaining modes, such as permanent or named arenas for competitive play. Second, introduce personal rooms to lower the barrier for new players to get started. This game is in serious need of better tutorial systems and ways to form teams. no.3 let sdf go fucking die

The current problem with this game lies in the company’s lack of action regarding its operation. It’s been two years already—haven’t you guys noticed this issue yet? This is clearly a officially released game, yet with each update, I feel as if I’m just a guinea pig in their tests, paying to participate in their experiments. SDF and their team completely disregard the players’ feelings and experiences.

[near pecan]

I also think achievements in game are kinda pointless, we should be able to get like cool titles regarding whatever we do in game, killing bosses, killing a specific set of mobs, killing x number of real players, etc, that's a good way of rewarding your playerbase so whatever you do in game doesnt feel like its for nothing, also this is a real problem, the inventory system needs a complete rework, I get the idea of the game making you order your stash and all that, but at least make it easier to organize the stash after a match is ended, im not talking maybe about in game stash but after game stash, its so painful to move bandages, potions etc each map, im killing my mouse moving things

[dire quiver]

🔥

[near pecan]

its kinda pointless at some point when you have x number of hours in game and you stil have to painfully move each item, the new buttons are not enough

[pallid hemlock]

whatd they say?

whos stream?

[leaden peak]

that there are monk next seasson and Quivers after that one

[near pecan]

Or maybe add a way so in the merchants you can set a preload of your previous game on what you bought, like "recently bought" thingy, or "latest used" something among those lines

[limber acorn]

There are shortcut keys, my friend.

[near pecan]

Im talking about item categories more like

the fill items thing was really good

[vocal vine]

Good ole ranged and ranger still going strong?

[stone panther]

As someone who has their money in '50 gold' pouches. I can tell you that trying to fill up a chest for the tradingpost is not a fun expierence

[winged quiver]

Is this game still good? Haven’t played since it came out

[mossy tapir]

Guys are there working codes

[sudden thorn]

whatd they do to redstone shards

[stone panther]

halved price to purchase and doubled price of all shop items.
so... nothing. But now instead of some emote costing 5 shard = 10 bucks. It will be 10 shard=10 bucks. So it does make things a bit easier to understand for people i'd guess

[sudden thorn]

xDDDDDD

[tame oxide]

Probably some futureproofing regarding legislation with virtual mtx currencies.
https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_25_831

[mortal lichen]

anyone else seeing the shop have the same prices and I have the same amount oif shards?

[hardy stump]

now everyone sees you have reading comprehension issues

[mortal lichen]

thats not very nice

[hardy stump]

im angy now 🙁

[mortal lichen]

bich

[hardy stump]

its valid angy

[stone panther]

[mortal lichen]

so its after wipe then mabye?

[hardy stump]

steam clown moderation banned me on forum for saying "you shouldn't be turning off anti cheat" menwhile the guy who did it now bumps old threads and tells people its fine to do it and game runs ok

[dusky spruce]

Kinda wild to think the beta fire elemental is coming back

Wonder what other classic inferno assets were gonna see

[minor snow]

im oce and literally almost every game i play theres cheaters in them. i wake up to multiple temp bans everyday. theres definitely a cheating problem, im not sure about euro or na but in asia/oce its a huge problem

[worthy socket]

So basically, they didn’t do anything. They’re just trying to scam everyone. You can even find the information on their website—it literally says that if a skin currently costs 6 Redstone Shards, its price will change to 12 after the EAS8 update.
All existing Redstone and Bluestone Shards in your inventory will be doubled, but the prices of everything will be doubled as well.
So this is complete bullshit: you get twice as many shards, but everything you can spend them on costs twice as much.

[pallid hemlock]

its just to give them more price flexibility, before everything had to be an even dollar amount price (2,4,6,etc.) now it can be any amount. becasue shards used to be 2 dollars now theyre $1

[worthy socket]

Who says that?... before everything had to be an even dollar amount price (2,4,6,etc.....There used to be items you could buy for 3 shards, or even for 1 Redstone Shard.

[pallid hemlock]

yea but 1 restone shard used to be 2 dollars, now its 1 dollar

[zinc sparrow]

This allows us to set cheaper prices.

[round elm]

can you set the game to more players now

[uncut skiff]

Nice arena event btw, complete garbo, lose all items on defeat xdddd makes sense you guys would do such a thing.. nobody is going to play that now xddddd

[wide scarab]

This community needs to chill

[worthy socket]

You should implement an anti-cheat system in the game and, for once, listen to your community instead of doing things that only benefit you. That’s why you now have only around 2000 players and are surviving season to season, constantly making new maps when there aren’t even enough players to properly fill two of them.

[uncut skiff]

And the devs need to listen and stop trolling patch after patch. 100% agreed

[wide scarab]

Idk listen to who? Some people want to kill this game faster.

[fossil cradle]

Just another reminder to remove druid from the game. See you in another 6 months

[uncut skiff]

To the majority of the community?? We have brilliant ideas from repoze,from Vincent, from a bunch of good streamers who actually give good advice, a bunch of videos, other games, etc… like you seriously telling me you need 4 years to add quiver and utility slots for inventory when YOU HAVE THE GRAY SPACE already in your inventory pre-made??? Yikes

[round elm]

yea you gotta consider we are now a 10th of what the game was a year ago

[uncut skiff]

Talent trees, no useless perks that nobody uses( class perks already built in) it’s just sad

Inventory guy left was the reason we still don’t have quiver for arrows, and utility slots.. like.. imagine your boss says: hey a co - worker left (who made lunch) now you guys don’t have food/water at work until we hire somebody. Just sad…

[silver smelt]

Didn't repoze gave great idea last year?
Remove all modes, leave trios only

[uncut skiff]

Like I said, many issues, and they don’t listen. As usual

[cunning canopy]

Yeah blame the comunity not the devs that refuse to listen or think. Everyone has been saying the arena season is dumb and they still do it xd

[silver smelt]

Have you played this season at all?
Or your mind is still stuck in season 6

[wide scarab]

If you want people to play your game being insufferable isn't going to help

[ashen sierra]

3 shards were $6 and 1 shard was $2. Before this update, there was no way for them to price an item to cost $1, $3, $5, etc.
"They’re just trying to scam everyone", my ass. No one is trying to scam you, mate.
The only place where they could "scam" is the Triumph Level bluestone shard progression, but Graysun replid to someone that it will also be adjusted accordingly.

[uncut skiff]

Yeah some people are just bootlickers I don’t know bro.. like imagine blaming the community when we literally want the game to play an they do EVERYTHING IN THE POWER to do the opposite.

[silver smelt]

Community needs to chill

[charred fjord]

They should have rewarded the people that have found artifacts and gear that they have found not lose it on the first round smh 😤

[silver smelt]

Go use artifacts in the dungeon

[wide scarab]

Bootlickers?? A lot of people complain about how whiny this community is.

[uncut skiff]

For a good reason. Like I explained above.

[cunning canopy]

That makes no sense. I dont have a game xd

[worthy socket]

Naaah, it’s just sad to see that there are still people like you who keep blaming the community. Probably a rat druid player… don’t worry, they’ll add a new overpowered class for a new map so you’ll have something to play.

[wide scarab]

What are you rambling about?

[worthy socket]

I’m not rambling at all. I’m stating facts, you just don’t like hearing them.

[cunning canopy]

Do you even play the game?

[wide scarab]

Facts about what? You just made an assumption about a class you don't like that I don't even play tf

[silver smelt]

Do YOU even play the game?

[cunning canopy]

Ive played more than you sadly

You dont play arena for sure though

If you played arena you would not be okay with this BS

[silver smelt]

Yes I'm not playing arena because only noobs play arena

[cunning canopy]

Okay buddy. Why are you talking then

[minor snow]

its his vision bro trust

[glacial sequoia]

whining is warranted hence the playercount being what it is, game sucks. simple as

[flat quarry]

All risk no reward ahh arena

[sinful gull]

If I came up with a end of wipe event.. we would be up to 8k players before wipe, and I stopped playing months ago now...SDF does it and we are on 2k a week before wipe. SDF is so lost in the sauce its crazy. And he lowkey knows it, thats why he tries to use this paul as a shield, its obvious this is all just SDF handwriting, paul is just sitting in a cage 3d designing spaceships for the new season...

[cunning canopy]

If Next wipe is ass It may very well be the last

[sharp marlin]

I don't understand why they wanna ruin their game intentionally. We could have so much fun for 3 days. Idk why they keep making the worse decisions on every patch note it's crazy.

[minor lion]

Just went red and my whole set+teammates set in my bag is gone after abnormal disconnection

[slim tulip]

Ppl have been saying this since forever and still here you are

[stone panther]

"it's early access, these things happen. Nothing we can do"

• official IM support stance on this shit

meanwhile, shilling a cosmetic for 25 bucks, seasonpasses and other crap. But it's early access bro

[slim tulip]

Do you even know what Shilling means?

[worthy socket]

But when the counter hits 0 for the next season update, be ready for a semi-wipe, and then another “semi-semi wipe” a few weeks later—because something will suddenly go wrong out of nowhere, with zero explanation.

[cunning canopy]

You do realise this game had 100k players and now 1k right? We only lost 99% of playerbase

[slim tulip]

100k? 1k? Why the fuck ppl like to pull numbers out of their asses to try and validate their shitty statements

[glacial sequoia]

people who use yet here you are as an argument are dumb af because this is a discord not a video game

game sucks is always valid

[stone panther]

They had 57k on steam alone, with most of the OG's at that time still on blacksmith

https://steamdb.info/app/2016590/charts/

[subtle goblet]

Oh so it was because of repoze this game almost died when they removed duos/solos?

[silver smelt]

It looked like it

[brittle barn]

Set that chart to "max" (displays all time) and that shit looks like a crashing stock lmao

[slim tulip]

Also it's hilarious you say "we" why the fuck do you care about how many ppl are playing the game? The less players there are the better chance you have to survive, cuz clearly you're a very shitty player with all that whining going around

[limber tiger]

i didnt even intend to play artifact arena but the way they implemented it is quite possibly the worst option

[slim tulip]

Ah great, you're his lawyer now?

[silver smelt]

Once repoze gave green light to SDF : "do it don't be b. about it"
SDF did it

[stone panther]

sir, this is a wendy's

[subtle goblet]

and then he left to play Apogea, classic repoze. Complains then runs

[minor lion]

anyone lose their kit hitting reds?

[cunning canopy]

You may be lacking in the brain department. Let me try and make It so you can comprehend the point beeing made. When the game loses 99% of the player base, It is close to being done for. If Next wipe is bad they Will be shutting down servers.

wtf i love arenas but this new announc.... pls dont let ppl lose item's this is so stupid -.- @zinc sparrow

[hazy creek]

TRUE! they fuck up the arenas

[limber tiger]

every single person i know that was hyped for it is massively upset now (if you could at least loot the enemies i think it would be alright)

[cunning canopy]

Apogea has implemented more updates in 1 week than this game in 2 months. And BEST part, they dont delay the patch and It is instant. No waiting for 8h. Crazy i know.

[hazy creek]

+1

[subtle goblet]

they heard all the complaints and did.....nothing

[limber tiger]

i guess so ye, tho i would take that L in the hopes they put in proper hours to make the new map/floor sick

[glacial sequoia]

when the devs crash out over their own lawsuit blues

[hazy creek]

what is the point go to arenas and lose the item's .... if i can lose i prefere go to the dunge ....

[limber tiger]

at leat you have the chance to gain something in that setting

[frank jay]

what is the best character to play besides fightert

[limber tiger]

barb

[dusty cloak]

Tumble/ smoke pot rogue

[glacial sequoia]

druid

[hazy creek]

they need to sell the game to some good company...EVERTY SINGEL Change they do is -1 point for dark and darker

[limber tiger]

ngl i defended them for a long time but selling wouldnt be the worst option, Krafton or Tencent would run it a lot more reliable

[slim tulip]

according to whom? where did the game lost 99% of its playerbase? like i said y'all like pulling numbers out of their asses to justify shitty takes

[hazy creek]

i play since the play test and i defended all the time, but now ????? no .... i play this game bc its the only one ....

[limber tiger]

the game is still great and scratching that itch but i wish i would have some optimism for the development

[slim tulip]

is not the "only one" you can go play dungeon stalkers, or whatever is called

[silver smelt]

That's what community said 4months ago

[brittle barn]

Read the charts they linked maybe? They indicate a 94% reduction (from all time peak to last 24 hr peak)

[slim tulip]

not one chart has ever talked about "player reduction" stup pulling shit out of your ass

[hazy creek]

???????? you actualy here just do flame i see! you see the playerbase in early 2025 and see now pls !

[brittle barn]

@slim tulip Literacy is hard

[plush vapor]

i think its time to log off youre hard baiting yourself

[hazy creek]

you can play for me, its ok !

[hazy creek]

+1

[slim tulip]

ah of course, because now pointing out the stupidity that people say on this chat is "flaming"

[hazy creek]

i guess this arena test 9 beeing like 70% squiere XD i will do that indeed

[brittle barn]

Literally do the math? Go to that chart and look at the ratio of last 24hr peak to alltime peak... If you dont want me to round I can be more exact- a 93.41018823% reduction

[hazy creek]

at lest what i say is something, like y ?! idk you say stuff and dont know the fact's XD

[brittle barn]

Or maybe stop ignoring data and acting like people are pulling things out of their asses when they have statistics to support it (and all you have is "nuh uh")

[cunning canopy]

Very few people Alive are dumber than you Buddy. Hentay be rotting your brain

[slim tulip]

to clarify i thought the message was talking about an official ironmace chart talking about player retention and reduction, which does not exist. the message probably was about steamcharts, which, for some weird reason, people on this discord treat like if it some sacred message from god

[glacial sequoia]

according to the numbers, that don't emotionally reply, like you

[hazy creek]

love this 😛

[glacial sequoia]

numbers are sacred messages

that is correct

[brittle barn]

LOL bro doesn't trust steamcharts

[stone panther]

so....

statistics = bad
carefully crafted PR bull = good

gotcha. Try running for US politics, you'll do great

[glacial sequoia]

he's somalian

makes sense with the pfp

[brittle barn]

Classic bias source of checks notes ....uh independent 3rd party game hosting platform statistics..?

[slim tulip]

No, i'm not gonna "trust" steam charts on this one because the game is F2P, and steam charts does not separate the numbers inbetween people that fully purchased the game and ppl that just downloaded it, played 15 mins and bail.

[glacial sequoia]

when a chart goes like this

📉

that's player reduction

[brittle barn]

You can also purchase the full game on steam in case you didn't know (F2P is literally just an incentive for new players)

[slim tulip]

what the fuck are you even talking about? so you got butthurt by my words and just decided to go full xenophobic?

[limber tiger]

even if thats the case it still shows the trend of less people trying out the game, as you say "play 15 minutes and bail"

[minor lion]

Someone go hit 3rd floor in crpyts a few times and tell me if you lose your shit

[glacial sequoia]

i'm talking about you, duh

of course you don't understand numbers why should you understand things said here either

[brittle barn]

Idk bro maybe drop the braindead republican talking points tbh

[glacial sequoia]

na, he is

[brittle barn]

Like im on your side with the stats, but seriously calling him samolian?

[slim tulip]

Ok so you are not refuting the fact that you got butthurt and just decided to attack me for whom i allegedly are, in your head, instead of the things i have to say @glacial sequoia
