Season One, Race Event 21: One Week Party

mh still 6 hours left to tweak the prices for the one week race. otherwise i wont be able to participate.

GGG should keep in mind that their business model is a free-to-play game that could only pay off if the amount of players is large and if many of them play the game frequently.

It's absolutely understandable that the top tier rewards are focused on a couple of people. But the fact that all (!) the casual players are completely neglected in the reward system of the one week race is extremly sad.

Sucks for me cause of my job I can hardly participate in ANY races. My days off are monday and tuesday. The days with the least amount of races and they always tends to be party races on those days.

GGG, I'd really appreciate more 1 hour solo races during next season. So far Ive only been able to compete in one race. I dont want points handed too me, I just would like to be able to accrue them at a slower pace perhaps and maybe still be able to get more than just the redbeak this season(which at this point seems highly unlikely lol).

Thanks for any input GGG.

I just want to throw my two cents in as well regarding the prize structure.

I think the prizes should be percentile based instead of position.

Top 1% get _____
Top 5% get _____
etc...

The prize pool is too top heavy in this race. I understand the 1-4 hours so we can get our few points and grind out the prizes but with this special one you should spread the points down.

Meh, keeping a self-found melee toon alive through the event, let alone it seeing the top 500 seems to be reward enough at this point, especially since now this race seem to lag less than hardcore; although the desync really is super erratic.

Really I just like the giant stash all for the one self-found toon. lol

Probably a stupid question but here goes...

How do you get to level 30+ in 4 hours?! I'm clearly missing something..

Every aspect of their game play has been refined and optimised for speed. Probably some lucky RNG in there, but it's mostly the race optimisation.

Did anyone actually read chris's response? I read every single page and while I agreed with everyone up until page 15 or whatever where chris gave the pretty explanation, if this is what he intended. Basically this is not a race. This is a new league for a week, new ladder if you must. The point is a fresh economy. It has nothing to do with rewards whatsoever. That is really an afterthought. Now personally reading this explanation I have to say, do not call it a race. If it was called 1 week ladder or league that would be better.

I don't think this should be going on if other races are going to be held during it; just seems like a complete waste of time.

I made a character and started to play before realizing "I highly doubt I'll get any benefit from this" and stopped.

Will be doing the shorter races, unless desync kills me again.

There is some ManMode going on :)
