For those Diablo 3 players here, have a read at this.

I'm sure you will love it.

Why I don't post it on Diablo 3 section? I don't play the game.

QUOTE
First, thank you for addressing so many of the important issues in this patch. After playing a couple of quests tonight, however, I've realized that the fight against exploiters will never truly be won.

- DPS is still way out of control - in some cases I've even seen players kill certain monsters before they were killed themselves

- People are still taking advantage of skills with unintended effects such as increased survival, damage output, and situation control

- There are several chests that continue to drop gold when opened; there are also still other, more nefarious means of gold farming, such as killing enough monsters that you actually MAKE more gold than your repairs cost

- I personally witnessed an incident where a player found a yellow item, and when they identified it, it had stats that could be exploited to increase their combat effectiveness - for the class they were playing at the time.

- Some gear seen on vendors still had stats other than Vitality that could, in the hands of an insidious agent, theoretically be employed toward the end of making combat easier (less dying, and in extreme cases, more killing)

- Bosses are still able to be killed by players - I don't have screenshots to prove this, but it is happening. Hopefully your data analysis can pick it up.

- Some bosses and rares are failing to properly spam stun, wall, poison, set afire, teleport into pools of acid, knockback, slow, and freeze players simultaneously while they teleport-kite the player at supersonic speed, carpeting every square inch of the zone with toxic ooze and letting their invulnerable minions with boss powers one- and two-shot us.

- I personally was able to set up a bizarre configuration in the auction house search panel where I could find items with specific stats and also be able to sort them in a way that was not effectively random.

- A friend of mine told me they were playing with some person earlier who - and I'm just the messenger here - seemed like they might be having fun while playing the game. I don't know how true this is, but if it's even a possibility, god help us all.

I'm just trying to do my part to ensure this kind of disgusting and cowardly behavior gets stamped out as soon as possible. If there's anything I hate in a game, it's feeling like I'm getting more powerful and that my time and efforts are culminating in some kind of... /shudder... progression. I'm in this for the frustration and disappointment, 100%, and I stand behind you with every patch that brings us closer to those ideals.

Keep up the great work.

Subforum fora single game? I don't think it is needed.

A subforum for a whole genre or a franchise with at least 3-4 titles? That is much more reasonable.

I think you probably meant make a sub forum only after the game has been released and has enough topics to be covered like how Diablo 3 has done so.

Actually, I meant what I written.

A subforum for a genre or a franchise with enough titles in it.

I actually think the subforum for Diablo 3 is totally not needed.

A subforum for World of Warcraft, the Warcraft series and Starcraft series on the other hand are justified because they have enough expansions and sequels to warrant a subforum.

If teh Torchlight subforum is to cover everything from Torchlight 1, 2, future expansion and maybe future sequels, that would be more reasonable. If there is an active modding community, even better justified for a subforum.

FUUUUUUUUUUUU

You cheated another unsuspecting victim to buy Tit Quest after you cheated my feeling and 20USD for the game.

Now I have to comfort myself by playing Tit Quest every night.... cry.gif

Read the reply from the administrator of the China thief.

The totally deny that they copy anything and refuse to take down the game even after being proven that they copied everything.

It seems that they removed the "We do not copy anything" from their site.

No, everything is 100% original.

WoW on have some influence in it.

Edit: This has potential to become a great meme.

About 2 pages of messages got deleted from the board.

Should expect nothing less from them I guess.

Things are starting to get interesting.

Waiting to see if there will be an official response to this or will it get deleted again.

I am all planned for Borderlands2, and i may need to delay this if they release it on Sept (which most probably be) as i cant stop the addiction of borderlands....

I already pre-ordered this, Darksiders 2 (released 14 August) and going to pre-order Borderlands 2 as well.

Also, I just bought Fallout 3 GOTY and Fallout : New Vegas Ultimate package on Steam sales.

I wish I have 48 hours in a day.

Pre-ordering Guild Wars 2 as well... God help me cry.gif

From Runic tweet:

The article on Joystiq.

Now teh question is, how about those models they rip from WoW?

They just said they will modify the assets stolen from Torchlight but no those from WoW.

And I doubt the so called "modify" will be just something like giving the monsters a new shade of colour or adding soem decals on them.

hmm.gif Could it be possible, the management/boss was not aware that their designer is lazy, and ninja'ed TL design.. and claim it was original?

I would say they are fully aware, they just don't care since they can't get sued because they are in China and teh main reason they take actions now is because their game got pulled off the app store. They are developing this game for western market only, I checked on their main Chinese website and the game is not on the Chinese site.

On the otehr hand, I was kind of amazed how quiet Blizzard remain on this issue even though the game clearly ripped some of WoW armors and weapons. Maybe the news never got to Blizzard?

Also, there are people saying that the loading screen art is 1 of the art for Dungeons and Dragons manual published about 20 years ago.
