    (PS4) Having to trade for maps has got to be the single worst gameplay mechanic ever invented!

    Posted: 05 May 2019 07:58 AM PDT

    Im so insanely frustrated by the fact that i cannot play this game in end game without having to use the trade market to trade for the maps I need.

    noone ever replies, maps cost a fortune and all you do is sit in your hideout waiting for trades to get accepted so you can play a little bit of the actual core game.

    whats the point in having a great char build if you cant even play the game since the maps run out sooner or later?

    Hospitalized life

    I have to get lung surgery next week. Actually I'm shit scared, so I'm playing PoE about almost all day long to distract my mind.

    ​

    I play in HC league. First one died in the middle of A3 Dominus fight when a nurse suddenly came to my room for blood sampling. Second one I pick Incinerate Chieftain. He is so much fun to play and still alive.

    ​

    My Surface running PoE smoothly big thanks to Rowen's Performance Booster Guide! (Screenshot below)

    Edit:

    Thank you very much for all the kind comments. I am sorry, but I was not expecting so many reactions. I am hoping everything goes well and I can go back to home before next league came out.

    GGG' Development Pattern

    Posted: 05 May 2019 07:13 AM PDT

    For several leagues running GGG's new league development has fit into the following predictable pattern:  

    1) Map drops are nerfed. The new league-specific content includes map drops - GGG expects that players will engage with the new content, thus warranting the map nerf. Players do not, on the whole, engage with the new league though (see 2 below) - and are very upset about being unable to maintain maps in spite of using map-sustain methods successful in previous leagues;  

    2) The rewards from the new league are at best mediocre - and are typically terrible. GGG intentionally nerfs new league rewards - thinking that they can bump rewards up as necessary once the league "matures.";  

    3) The new league contains numerous mechanics not familiar to players; powerful recipes are part of the new league. But no one knows how to use them in the first few weeks. As a result of this the power of the new recipes are lost upon the vast majority of the community for the first few weeks;  

    4) A new boss is associated with the league. The boss is extremely hard to spawn - likely most of the player base will never see the boss. Since the boss is new, it is even harder to kill than previous bosses. Not satisfied with the boss being hardest to kill, GGG makes the boss subject to random map-mod modifiers - resulting in unkillable new content bosses spawning;  

    5) The challenges will contain 1 or more heavily RNG-gated challenges; likely one or more of them will apply to the extremely rare new-content end game boss where you need to kill the boss under multiple conditions;  

    6)After one month, the new content is modified, making it much more rewarding. Concomitantly, map drops are boosted.  

    7) By the time #6 occurs, the player base has irrecoverably plummeted - at best, 25% or so of the player base remains after 1 month. The 1-month fixes, while welcome, fails to benefit the majority of the player base who have already quit the league.  

    8) When applicable - one or more previous leagues are integrated into the new league. Numerous problems attend integration taking several development cycles to address;  

    9) Extremely unpopular leagues are not integrated into the game immediately - even though league unpopularity isn't per se the fault of the league itself. At some point in the future, the league is integrated into the game with some improvements - and some major drawbacks.

    Kudos to Chris for his recent post regarding development at GGG and for the Developer Q&A.  

    But does anyone think that the development pattern described above is going to change?  

    Me? - I'm hopeful that it will - but rather doubt it. I stick with leagues for the duration and thus benefit from the 1-month fixes. But most players do not.  

    TL/DR - GGG's new league development has fallen into a predictable pattern that leads to widespread dissatisfaction among the player base upon league release. As part of the pattern, GGG addresses league rollout issues, typically after a month - but by that time, the majority of players are no longer actively playing the new league.

    Can we have ongoing races stickied on this subreddit

    Posted: 05 May 2019 01:59 PM PDT

    Why doesn't this subreddit have ongoing races sticked? Like this thread: https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/bkxqea/hi_rpathofexile_in_less_than_4_hours_were_going/ should be sticked for the day instead of "Proposed subreddit rules changes: looking for feedback!" The only reason I was reminded that there was a race going on at all today was because of Nugi's and AhhCrying's death clips. At the very least put it in the sidebar somewhere.

    Trying to Make Path of Exile Videos

    Posted: 05 May 2019 12:15 PM PDT

    As I said in my first post, I love this game. And I've been trying to make videos to bring more people in.

    I've finally started mechanical videos.

    Please let me know what I can improve! All flames welcome!

    Before I buy: is the Premium Tab purchase issue still a thing?

    Posted: 05 May 2019 05:37 AM PDT

    I could really need some more premium tabs on standard. What is keeping me hesitant?

    That once I purchase a premium upgrade the game randomly picks one of the tabs, changes it to premium, and most likely takes a random normal tab and changes it to "Remove only". Then all you can do is find out which one got changed and then sort the tabs again.

    Is this still a thing or is it safe to upgrade to premium tabs?

    P.S.: It is not a minor issue to me. I have around 90 stash tabs and around 200-250 "remove only" tabs from former leagues. So this described behavior can end in serious stash orgies.

    Edit: Tried the suggested way to upgrade. It still changed a "remove only" to premium and a standard one to "remove only". Shop -> Upgrade to premium -> Open stash on a normal tab -> "Remove only" became premium
