I WAS one those retards who liked this game. But i cant stand it anymore. Im sure you have never played it yourself. Why would you think making it ONLINE - the game that doesnt require any online at all - is any good idead. And not just online it requires NASA internet(i have 150mbs) all the time . I hate you so much. Why would you think making tourmented chests searchable and the most idiotic thing deasaper from map after i found one. It takes 20 min just to find one. Its not interesting, neither fun. God, i can’t describe how hard you ruined everything with bad decisions from people who know nothing about good games. It constantly laggs, it have spikes when any players come close to me.
Ok, take a breather & a break. I understand your frustrations (quite well in the disconnects department to be fair). And when you’re feeling up for it →
Here’s a tool to help you find the Mysterious chests;
Google: Maxroll D4 Map tool (it wouldn’t let me post a link appearantly, but it shouldn’t be too hard to find.)
Now, usually there’s around 2 Mysterious chests to be found at any give time in a helltide. Around 30 minutes into a Helltide those change to 2 other locations (again, usually).
You can use the map-tool to help you find them easier.
As for the stutters, freezes, lags, constant disconnects… I feel you. I’ve tried so many things by now that it seems hopeless short of getting that NASA level equipment. ![]()
Hope you were able to vent some of that frustration out of your system.
Thank you for your support, mate. I really appriciate it.
I know that there are side map tools to find chests. Im using them, i just dont get why its not marked on in-game map. I mean, it is always on the same places. I just dont get how could anyone who played this game decide it is any fun mechanic.
I liked many things about this game: it is beautiful, i love overpower mechanic,i love those different defence stats, love how different builds can be played, i love it requires different ratations, dungeon and flask mechanics (it remindes me WoW)
And i want to play it so much, but it have so many issues that just make me frustrated ![]()
Yea, same thing. On some days it just becomes unbearable.
Here’s a little something that may help explain what’s happening surrounding the stutters freezes & disconnects if you’re keen on knowing.
A while ago there was a post on twitter regarding why there were so few stash tabs. One of the employees replied saying that they had their engineers working on a solution and…
- The problem was that every time you get near any other players the game makes you load their entire inventory.
Not just their equiped items. Not just what they picked up. Everything, including all stash tabs..
Now this shouldn’t by itself be a huge problem as storage data (a bunch of numbers) shouldn’t be a large size of data. However I believe it is loading a lot more assets revolving those items than simply storage data. Probably other data like associated pictures and/or even the models for the items?
This makes that every time you come across another player your internet is suddenly forced to swallow a big amount of data in a very short amount of time. (Possibly affecting game stability as well as it can not cope with it itself.)
This also explains why it gets worse each time you try to teleport to a mayor hub/town or try to get towards an event that probably has a lot of player traffic to it.
Causing you to DC right before getting to a legion event for example or why Kyovashad gets you the most DC’s compared to other travel points.
Idk, how or why the game loads data in this way or how anyone at blizzard thought this was a good idea OR why this wasn’t dealt with BEFORE the official release.
What I can tell is that from what I can see, the developers of this game have likely been pushed and shoved around in way too many directions. Been overworked. And had mutliple different people coming and going to finish coding parts of the game.
Resulting into the issues many of us face today.
I can only hope they can somehow manage to fix this mess. But I neither envy nor curse the developers themselves. Maybe if Microsoft finally takes the wheel the dev team will finally get the support & resources they deserve to make the game worthy of it’s name.
Man no worries, not even a nasa game can run this trash game. I have a 4080 and i7 13700 32gb ram and so on and I lagged (screenfreeze, rubbing…) everyday in this game since the beta till the end. Never experienced a problem in any games. I managed to play 1 month in this game and I ended totally disgusted from it for many factors (unplayable lag, no endgame, boredom)
All they need to do with other peoples stash tabs is to load them if, and only if, the two players enter a trade screen.
There is no reason to load the entire thing. I can understand equipped items as people can look at other peoples items for build ideas or whatever but their entire inventory is pointless.
OP, I also feel your frustrations with the game. I too love the game but there are some really questionable (read as stupid) decisions that have been made here.
Still this is to be expected considering that the game design was so compartmentalised that one finger didn’t know what the other fingers on the same hand were doing. You can not build a good game like this at all, every department should have a basic understanding of what everybody else is doing at all times to allow cohesion in the finished design.
As Starstorm points out, lets say you got 6 tabs of crap in your stash thats 40 items a tab, so 240 items each with around 3-5 stats + the crap you’re carrying, and wearing. Each one has a type, and then a bunch of different stats, its not like everyone has a “long sword d6 damage” and then maybe a +1 on the end, then theres the aspects you have your skills and paragons… and then maybe you overrode all the item looks on you with something else…
as a programmer, I cant tell you a single reason why every fellow in the same area as me needs to know the content of my bank i dont have on me, or, my quests, or anything other than what i look like. On trade, all they need is what I am showing them, nothing more. Should we group, and the world maybe has to bend to my view, sure, trade whatever is needed for that - then… But us packrats who hate to recycle anything we are hogging your bandwidth with a lot of pointless info.
TBH I kinda get cloud save, I get if you want to play with a bud, but, the story line is “you are the one and only” I dont need to see 100 other 1 and onlys walking about. why should i save some dude when theres 100 dudes waiting to save him? Id rather the game was offline with some form of “save to cloud” and a join network game option if you so feel desparately inclinde
One I use for finding chest locations is helltides dot com
if this is true now it makes alot of sense all the dc and lag and what a stupid mistake that is making alot of players leave
glad to hear i am not the only one, use to play almost normally but the last parch i think is ruining everything
still much work to do
by the way i will thank if the company puts some help forum in spanish
wey no ayudan en ingles crees que van a ayudar en español jajaja
45yo here. I lived time when bli$$ard killed Diablo franchise hahahha
all those things You describes above … i was thinking its my crap NVIDIA MX250 and my very poor internet (optimistic version - early morning 15Mb/s) heh
also as someone said before - tons of useless items. D4 is years behind item idea from D2 (sets, runewords, runes, charms, ethereals, uniques), more over for instance using sorc You could find something for paladin, could You believe that ?
apart from pure playing, i think many people were spending time just trading.
hope someone will find how to put some usefull ideas to this ctrl+c ctrl+v weak idea from D3 (items).
