Some new chapters would be lovely for enemy variety but honestly I would love some difficulty options for main story. Loved playing GD on max difficulty starting with lvl 1.
It's not quite the same thing but we did add the boots that make it super hard mode that work from level 1.
I think you couldn't stop it because a lot of people probably expect a full release/1.0 version of a game to have a complete story line to some extend. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but calling this patch 1.0 was an odd decision imo.
The vast majority of the feedback that we get tells us very clearly that end game content is dramatically more valuable overall than story content. So leading up to 1.0, that was our main focus. 1.0 was the first version where we had all of our planned classes available and our end game was feeling like a proper end game set of systems.
With a live service model game, the story will always be expanding and evolving. It's hard to draw a line and say that at any one point is where the story is "ready for release".
We considered many scenarios and plans for a path to 1.0 in very specific detail. We are very pleased with our decision and hindsight being 20/20, I would do it again just the same.
Not an expert by any means, but I would guess that minion builds are actually the best positioned to be use parry, because the best way to get parry is as a weapon prefix and minion damage mods on weapons are suffixes.
This is actually why parry was added in the first place. We wanted to give minion builds some prefixes to care about on weapons.
Apologies that your'e encountering this, u/CourierClementine. There is not a widespread or known case of this any longer and the vast majority or people that we find have these issues are using a VPN (sometimes unknowingly) or have something configured in a unique way on their end.
To rule out some possibilities, if you have the ability to tether your computer internet to your phone's separate internet service temporarily and give it a shot you may find that it is or is not related to your internet settings.
Ah I see. Great job on the way it currently works though, I love seeing that quick shift from an untidy mess of me picking things up into smooth layers.
On a side note both the sorting and the general use of stash boxes would improve if it didn’t have 17 rows. Nothing goes into 17 so things always end up wonky.
Lol I know, it bothers me so much. That and also how the sort doesn't put 1x1s side by side to make a pair so you don't get that awkward 1x17 section down the right side. We just hired a dedicated UI dev for the first time to redo all these janky old bits of my code floating around.
Can you change the tiebreaker to alphabetical so that unique items are at least sorted into groups with each other?
It's on the list to be updated properly. It doesn't know the name of the item and the tiebreaker is just incidental, it's not actually coded. So it's not just a matter of switching what it's looking at.
Would you guys consider allowing us to vote on what is released? Have a poll going for the month with a few concepts that we could vote on for our favorite. Might increase the hype around a new cosmetic release.
I think it's a cool idea. We don't really have the spare art assets to make concept art for mtx that we don't follow through on. We are just trying to add as much as we can right now as the shop still feels kinda bare. If it is good enough that we would be confident to present it as an option, then we would probably just want to make it regardless. Maybe once we get the mtx options settled a little more.
Yea, my sorting algorithm was never meant to go into production 6 years ago. All it cares about is object size. It then uses age as an incidental tiebreaker so it just knows that all those 1x1s are "sorted nicely".
Edit: someone just told me they are actually working on this already.

Skill issue
I’ll link this to our dev team to get their thoughts
Oh ok thank you for the clarification.
I didn't mean add a sixth skill specialization though. Just a key on which we can only map traversal skills, and does the dodge roll if the binded traversal skill is in cooldown. Said traversal skill doesn't even have to be specialized.
I can understand the concern with extra keybind on ARPG (one comment in this thread mentioned it) but if we most likely have a new button to trigger dodge roll, might as well well xpand it's functionality to trigger a traversal skill if available
But extrapolating your point, I guess it would be difficult for balance and gameplay flow if you seperate out traversal skill as the player can have 5 damage skills available to him instead of four.
Edit: sorry I just saw your request to use evade instead of dodge.
It's less about not wanting to add a 6th button and more about not wanting to add a 6th specialization slot and wanting equal spec slots and ability bar slots which implies the requirement of not adding a 6th non-spec bar slot.
Also, please try to use Evade as we aren't adding a Dodge roll.
One of the requirements we had for the system was to not add a 6th specializable ability slot. This suggestion would require compromising the other systems in a way we are not comfortable with.
Option 1: delete all of the traversal still trees. It then is just a class specific version of what we are already doing while also effectively deleting 10 skills at the same time.
Option 2: remove one of the other ability slots at the same time. That turns this into us just locking one of the slots on your bar and giving it a coooldown effect.
I can't think of another way to make this work and both of these are non starters for me personally.
It's a neat idea but even if we didn't have to make another of those adjustments, it also increases the complexity of the overall system higher than we want.
This was an option we considered which is why I know the reasons we didn't do it off the top of my head.
Edit: also, please please please start u...

If yes, not ok. If no, maybe ok but not conclusive.

I'm posting it here first hoping to get some confirmation from someone else having the issue to see if theirs can also be attributed to drift.
In game is best
Following up on this... Hey u/ekimarcher , would you mind checking out another post I made on this as well? I think I have cracked what is happening.
Did you also submit it to the bug reports?
There will be UX improvements, possibly tier-balance adjustments, and we're planning on slipping in a couple slightly smaller un-announced things - generally the Bazaar will be a core feature that persists in the game's future though
It might already be apart of it, but had shadow banning been discussed? If they get chat banned, they make a new one. If they aren’t sure if they are chat banned, it might slow it down? They would probably still need to be able to whisper and all so they can’t confirm it easily, but if they aren’t sure of what exact phrase got them banned at what time I could help in the conflict.
I can't really go into details on what we do with regards to this but we can shadow chat ban people.
I agree that our methods aren't providing enough protection against this yet. The current system blocks almost all of it. But the couple percent that does slip through is still really annoying.
Edit: We are actively developing new systems to combat this problem.
