Rofl. whats the problem with custom games? I've played nothing but and had zero issues. Look at the game options before it starts if you're scared of someone using some crazy option. Also host your own damn game and you have nothing to worry about! ZOMG! So, you got spanked. Everyone loses sometime, nothing to QQ about.
Server to client has the lynchpin of the server. If the host has a crappy computer/connection everyone feels it. However if they don't there is no issue. If one of the people in the game has a crappy computer/connection it's not a major issue unless it's so horrific they disconnect. At which point people rejoice. You're better off without them. In a peer to peer setting if 1 persons computer or connection sucks everyone feels it every second of the game. They will not d
Generally take bite, stun, mist, pick up batswarm when you can. Keep get all of those maxed. Take the potion ability as well for the lifetap aura. I start off with the hp regen bp and the mana regen helm. I pick up the 10% movement boots later, Then get the helm with 25% reduced mana cost. You'll never have to base ever again, after that I get the cloak of flames and lastly get the x4 crit thing. If I'm rolling in dough I'll upgrade the citadel like crazy and also pick up the ring of the all
I play the generals as assassins. I did play them normally at first but more often than not they get owned in the cross fire taking your potential from good to nothing at which point you're a worthless sitting duck. Build them as an assassin and the minions are a bonus....if you even use them. On Oak I don't take them till I've maxed out my other skills and even then I get them summoned and send them to the fountain for the bonus damage. The Idol exploit I won't touch t
In a very loosely based related question. My edge tracking went from normal to WARP SPEED. If I go to the edge of the screen it just blazes across the screen. Didn't see any option to change the speed of it and I know I didn't change anything. Just suddenly decided to go crazy fast.
Not all of them have the ability to do that at low level though. UB can't do it till level 5. Depending on how many people in a game are doing this and how aggressive they are you might not get the chance.
Then you should avoid every MMO. The complexities of those games plus the limitations of the engines they're based on lead to a plethora of things that can't be fixed. "Fixing" them would require an entire rehaul of the game starting with the bottom. The engines will not let them change certain things because they didn't have the means or the foresight to add them as parameters when they first implimented said engine. Every MMO is plagued by these sorts of things. Little things that can add u
I believe what he said I agree, we'll put it on the list to changing it to sell the idol lose the minions. He doesn't keep a list of cheese moves, he'd keep a list of bugs and other exploits to be looked at. Exploits in fact can not be limited to bugs. Do you have common sense? If you do you'd know that if you sold an idol you shouldn't keep the minions, that's a common sense issue. Whether or not you use this tactic or want it to be fixed or not common sense says it sh
Things can be exploits without being bugs. Releasing a game to the general population in effect gives you thousands and thousands (or even millions) more testers. People will find out ways to do things you NEVER intended and your beta testers never found or thought of. You can still be exploiting and taking advantage of something in the game without it being a bug. An example from EQ1 is Feign Death pulling. They never thought it was a thing, no one ever came up with it
You're summoning them with the idol then selling the idol but keeping the minions. That doesn't seem like a bug? You lose out on a bit of gold, oh noes, you'll make it back in no time flat when you turn people into goo. This is the definition of an exploit, using something unintended to gain an advantage. Easy fix would be once you sell an idol you lose all the minions related to it.
I was on the recieving end of this and it is complete rape. Hats off for beating the system. That being said I'm fairly sure this is an exploit. I'm sure they have bigger issues to be working on at the moment but there really isn't much you can do to stop this early on, it's pretty much bend over and get analized, no lube.
