and i probably shouldn't have been so rude about my responses but come on guys you dont listen to positive feedback so maybe you'll listen to the negative? but stop listening to the vanilla d2ers who have no clue what median is all about. stop being like activision and blizzard and chasing money. you had a good player base you had dedicated players and you said fuck everyone we need more money

However i see ur point, forcing ppl to buy TG in order to build the char faster. Reminds me these crappy F2P games where u progress very slowly until u get paid stuff to progress way faster.

Hope MXL won't be like that...

Nobody forces you to buy tg, you can sell your own items for tg.

There is alot to upack there but to not waste time:
- is too soon to judge, especially on balance and gameplay flow since a lot is being reworked, wouldn't you agree? every change is also being tested by the bigger tester base we ever had and in the longest beta to date.
- the "highly polished shit" has the bigger playerbase and retention than any mxl version that came before...
- 2.0 servers will most likely be better.
- we do listen to feedback and we aren't money craving monsters corrupted by "vanilla d2ers".
- for mercy's sake turn down your conspiracy assumptions.
- most important of all: you can edit your comments, no need to spam.

For future posts make sure to read the Code of Conduct.
On a side note, even though you think so highly of us, define this as "shit" and our time & effort as "fucking median into a hole in the ground", I hope you'll enjoy 2.0 nonetheless; and if this will not be the case then keep in mind that the great majority of the mod old versions you idolize so much are still easily downloadable.

As Istaryu said, nobody is forcing anybody. We do not have a shop where to buy xp boosts or items, you buy from other players that dropped something that it is of interest for you. It's just RNG, you too can be the seller just as easily. Want to progress faster? play more and optimize your build where you find it lacking. You find a reasonable solo self-found build to be too out of reach without unreasonable time investment? post your feedback.

This is correct, all my tg for example is from selling items





Anyway.... any update on when the release date is? :bounce:

The thing is, my last char was 135 lvl Assassin and i barely found any good items. Some common SU like Shamanka or Kraken's Cutlass, not any SSU. Nothing rare, nothing good. Just some elemental runes. Not a single Cornerstone. I doubt that i could even get at least 50TG with this crap drop and bad luck, so i would btr buy TG instead of wasting hours for useless drops.

But i am not negative toward 2.0, i am very positive and i rly hope it will be a great patch.

Are you for real? The game has grown exponentially since Marco and crew took over in many positive ways. Yes, some of the older patches had fun elements to them to be sure, but you are definitely wearing rose colored glasses here. The current patch is one of the best I have personally played TBH! I would actually rate it my favorite patch so far, and next below that 1.F9 Laz era. This conversation reminds me of some friends who have been listening to the same 90s songs since we were kids...

meh point taken i was a little harsh, but no i didnt say it was all bad i'll give credit where credit is due, sigma looks and plays much better than ultimative they did good things with reducing useless items and what not but you completely missed the point of my posts. granted that was probably my fault cause i got a little carried away and went on a rant but anyway its whatever
