Taking a break until certain issues are fixed

4 times now I have experienced crashes during the act 1 final boss and the heyena boss death animations (heyena mobs killed me afterwards 1 time to be fair). The feeling of losing the visible loot on the ground is pretty bad. Especailly as loot starved as we are through the acts. The last time it happened I had just convinced my gf to play with me, and losing loot on 2 bosses in a row just drained all desire to play from both of us.

1. Loot during acts needs to be improved marginally.
2. Loot shouldn't disappear from the ground, unless the instance times out.
3. d/c issues are rampant and it makes the game extra punishing due to the above reasons. Also...
4. 1 portal during maps is not enough.

Anyway, this game is AMAZING, and so much fun. But the fundamental issues above go against the nature of ARPGs and as such I can't spend my time experiencing EA while these are present.

Haven't had 1 dc. Check your internet or change server. Maybe do pingtest?
Fixed my crashing with using Vulcan instead of direct x
Loot is fine, maybe act 2 could use a tiny boost.
You have 6 portals per map. True 1 if you die, the don't.

you're in act 1 and saying that loot needs to be improved? Huh


Should we drop mirrors in act 1, would that suffice?

I'm in Act 1 - the loot needs to be improved. I'm at the end still using level 8-10 weapons because nothing better has dropped and every base I roll orbs on has ended up trash.

The vendors don't restock often enough, good loot drops too infrequently, and the "crafting" is way too random.

You can have an absolutely great experience if you hit the lottery, or an absolutely terrible one if you don't. That wide a difference in player experience is not a Good Thing(tm).

Good for you i had crashes , maps freezing up , maps spawning where you are cut off from the rest of the map and cant progress , map not opening when you put them in , rollbacks , and ton of other things.
i am sure better internet will fix it , it could not be GGG they are perfect.

Crashes absolutely have been a thing, lol. Just because 1 person says they haven't had any doesn't mean its not an issue.

Loot is almost there imo. I don't mind if its more rare than POE1, but with that extra rare loot, we should have a chance to grab it if it drops. Showing us the loot dropping and giving us credit for a quest completing, but not letting us get it is very poor design. If it stays this way, I will simply keep playing POE1.

I absolutely love this game. But it's going to end up like every other souls like game to me if things don't change. I'll put 50-100 hours into it and then not play it again.

The game is amazing, it just has some major issues that are going to make me stop playing. I got my 30 bucks worth.

So psychotic.
