Inflation: Is this economy screwed? by stairmasterin Diablo

[–]suntorytime 0 points1 point ago

Given the current infrastructure, gold will be severely inflated. There is no sink at all because Bliz overestimated the difficulty of inferno and/or underestimated the 'broken' builds that were viable in inferno. The gold sink here should ultimately be repair costs, but in its current form, they are too low. Repair costs should represent a risk/reward factor. If a player decides to plough through inferno, they should not be able to do it recklessly. Every run through of inferno, in its current form, allows a player to be positive in gold. Ideally however, a player should break even most times, lose gold sometimes (due to dying and repair costs), or sometimes (rarely) when they are lucky, they find a nice item which puts them well in the positive.

The AH provides no balance and the RMAH will not resolve the inflation issues. It would allow time limited players to get rich by purchasing large amounts of gold, whilst those with time can easily accrue the gold again by doing a few runs.

Any other Aus/NZ players pissed off about maintenance ALWAYS being in our prime time? by BuzZooin Diablo

[–]suntorytime 0 points1 point ago

Blizzard should have used the option of global play more efficiently. I.e. Allow players to use their characters globally, but restrict the use of the AH to the player's respective server region. But in its current state, I presume unfortunately this would also cause server load issues when maintenance happens.

IAmA Titan Quest designer struggling to launch an independent game studio and develop a new game by Medierrain IAmA

TQ had the best moon physics, I hope it's retained in Grim Dawn.

What happened when Iron Lore studios shut down? How and why did you guys decide to start a new company without any funding etc?

Servers down again? by blambear23in Diablo

[–]suntorytime 1 point2 points ago

I was getting 3006 error trying to resume a game. Try starting a new character in hardcore mode. That worked for me.

It's almost like we invented the term 'dole bludger'... :D

(Actually I'm so thankful this contest is random. Some of us actually have to work 9-5)

Misleading title.

This is nothing more than running around in the Mooege server emulator.

How Diablo III's DRM Will Affect You by nokbuein Diablo

Online pause is the way to go. It's a really handy feature in SC2 and works relatively well in multiplayer matches. Anyone can pause and unpause the game, the game gives you a maximum number of times which a pause can be called by a player so it prevents abuse of the system. In D3's case, a paused game should also prevent an idle timeout.

Can't say if pause will make it to the final game or not, but personally I'd love to see it in there.

My biggest issue with Demon's Souls by nerryblackberryin gaming

[–]suntorytime 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Your comic made me cackle.

I love Demon Souls but never completed it. I spent too much time watching the ghosts of other players die in horribly tragic, but amusing ways.

I like to imagine their children telling stories of their brave father who died by falling down 6 flights of stairs in an attempt to run away from a zombie knight. Or the brave warrior who forgot to look down while running in his glorious armour, to be defeated by the cliff of ill-placement.

The STEAM SUMMER SALE is here! AWWWW YEAAAAH! by Remmibin gaming

Could someone help me purchase MoH from the US steam store? I'd really appreciate it. I pay by paypal and karma!

Gaming in adulthood by andru365in gaming

I'm 25 and lost interest in the majority of gaming. I get home, I have a pile of steam games that I barely touch, a stack of ps3 games such as uncharted 2, lbp2 that are still shrink wrapped. And you know what I fucking do, I get home from the office and pull out Sengoku Basara (aka re-skinned Dynasty Warriors) and sit there mindlessly mashing one button for a few hours beating up entire armies for no reason. Not sure why I feel doing this is more enticing and entertaining than finishing good story driven/well designed game, though.

I'm a lawyer, and wore these cufflinks in honor of the Supreme Court decision today by JohnnieWalkerRedin gaming

As I understand it in Australia, this is pretty much correct. Unfortunately I am only a family lawyer so I have no first hand experience in presenting foreign judgments, but Judges can take into consideration the reasoning behind foreign common law judgments (and especially so if the statute/legislation are the same or very similar). A side effect of Australia entering into agreements with other countries, such as the FTA with USA, is that our laws largely reflect American laws in that area, so if there is warrant for Australian judges to look outside the boundaries of our own common law (i.e. unprecedented cases), they will do so.

In light of the recent lawsuit against SONY: For anyone pissed about their information being leaked, you have a right to be mad. For anyone that feels they need to be monetarily compensated...you should read this (probably for the first time.) by SadCowin gaming

[–]suntorytime 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You're right, in many ways - I, and maybe some other less vocal people, don't really care about our information being in the hands of shady people, in fact it (probably) already is considering how many sites require registration etc.

But letting clauses like these stand ground creates a bad precedence and removes all liability from companies who should be protecting our information. Perhaps it won't be so bad in Sony's case, but if all companies follow suit then we'll be in a bit of a predicament as customers.

How can I be a PC gamer while sitting on my couch? by TheShadowBannedin gaming

I lopped of all the legs on my PC table, put my 42" Sony bravia on it and some Ikea height adjustable legs. Lowered the legs as low as they go, and now use a Poang chair instead of my $500 ergo chair. You could replace Poang chair with a sofa.

I studied law. I had a ball.

Now I'm a lawyer and it's shitty as can be. If you can't handle the stress of a one off exam that determines your future then man up cause you're going to need to handle the stress of a once of trial/case/mediation/arbitration etc that determines the future of someone else's life/company/family etc.

Just want to throw it out there that the guys from Iron Lore after being disbanded, formed a small studio called Crate. They're working on another D2 clone called Grim Dawn. They're accepting pre-orders to help development! Grim Dawn

I really wish more people got into TQ, I enjoyed it more than D2 as well.

Isn't the dd/mm/yyyy format logically a better way to represent dates than the mm/dd/yyyy format? by zorbixin AskReddit

The most logical way is just to write the month in words so there's never any confusion. This is really something I wish more people did as good business practice.
