RipClaw Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) 8 hours ago, Gamida said: I've been playing older versions to pass time until A21 drops and there was a time things degraded when repaired. It was removed so don't know if they will change it back in future but who knows. According to Roland, this is rather unlikely. Reimplementing item degradation would require a lot of rebalancing. In A21, things will change in that respect anyway. Currently you can reach quality level 5 pretty fast for everything you craft, but in A21 you will have to climb up the quality levels separately for each technology level. After the quality 5 iron pickaxe comes the quality 1 steel pickaxe. You will re-craft your weapons and tools multiple times.

Jost Amman Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 That's too bad, honestly. A stream that will probably show content that will be the focus of the Stream Weekend, it's a bad move in my opinion. It's like stealing the thunder from the streamers, basically. People are already hyped and are only waiting for confirmation of the release date. A game play stream will just @%$# them off. And all this, independently of IF the streamer weekend will start on June 9 or June 16. Just my two cents. I won't even publish this news on Steam because I'm "afraid" of the backlash, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomofman Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) I agree. I'm tempted not to watch it, but could be swayed either way depending on if I knew when streamer weekend was. If streamer weekend was next weekend I wouldn't watch this stream, but if streamer weekend is still 3/4 weeks away. I'd watch it just to have some new A21 stuff Edited June 3, 2023 by Doomofman (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHellKen Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Just now, Doomofman said: So they're streaming a playthrough with QA on Wednesday, I guess that means streamer weekend isn't next weekend Good to know, I missed that. Next Fest is June 19, so that still mostly lines up. QA stream this coming week, followed by Streamer Weekend (17th) with experimental release during Next Fest (19th). Or, they could announce Streamer Weekend during the QA stream, and still make it on the 10th. It's all up to TFP, but you're probably right.

I really don't believe June 9th is even on the table since diablo 4 is being released on the 6th. From a business stand point wouldnt make much sense to compete against it- especially since alot streamers are going be doing diablo reviews. I agree with you on the 16th for streamer weekend followed by the 19th for release. If what faatal said a bit earlier about them being down to the last of the bug list than yeah my money is on that middle of June for release.

Yes. There have been optimizations in A21, for sure. Whether they'll be good for your specific computer configuration, though, you'll have to see for yourself I guess.

Doomofman Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) I think this weekend is bigger weekend for D4, no? (not that they shouldn't give it space either way) Edited June 3, 2023 by Doomofman (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't even publish this news on Steam because I'm "afraid" of the backlash, lol I don't think it will be a thunder-stealing stream even if the streamer weekend happens this coming weekend. There are two major audiences really: Those who watch and follow the person they enjoy watching and those who watch to get information on the game. The first group will watch their guy or gal no matter what and enjoy it immensely-- probably more than watching TFP staff play. The second group greatly prefers just getting the information and will be interested in the Q&A aspect and that it is TFP staff answering the questions. Many in the second group are often annoyed by the personalities and antics of professional streamers and just want the info and are likely to just skip the streamer weekend but will want to watch QA staff playing and showing stuff off. At any rate, experimental is at the door and about to come into the house and when it comes, any and all annoyance is forgotten in the excitement of getting it and playing it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riamus Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Great point. I doubt I would watch a streamer play the game unless I have nothing better to do. But I wouldn't mind seeing the devs play and give answers to questions while doing so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jost Amman Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Well, I don't know about audiences, but I can tell you how it will work out for me. Before knowing about the game play dev stream, I was willing to watch some streamer (probably Pocket), and see there how the new A21 plays. But now that I know there'll be this game play dev stream next Wednesday, I'll probably watch that one and not the streamer. I mean, it's just me... but I wonder how many more will do the same, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenixshade35 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I am glad it got some more optimization, it was getting bad when a t5 poi would drop my frames to 20, and i recently upgraded my ram and graphics card, so this is a very welcome change, and im excited for release of a21, its gonna be a learning curve thats for sure.

They will want to see her reactions and interact with her. You can take her or leave her and obviously care more about the actual information. And...if you aren't busy that weekend and it comes to mind you still might tune in to see her play. In fact, it's very likely despite your feeling now that the dev stream this Wednesday will fully satisfy you especially since you'll be on the forums over that weekend.

meilodasreh Posted June 4, 2023 Author Share Posted June 4, 2023 so there will be people who don't want to watch any of this because they don't want to spoil it for themselves. And there will be people who suck up every bit of information, watch all the "let's play"s, "what's new"s, tutorials, from every source they can get their hands on. And there will be those who want to watch this but not that, for whatever reason that does make sense to only themselves. So what? Release the kraken!

There may be a little overhead if you are running developer builds (there is editor code running in background) Another thing is that we do not know if the CPU/GPU is halted. We could get better fps on lower settings or the worst scenario, code needs optimizing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me I want to know the mechanics of playing and not so much the adventures of others (I will still watch that too). Once I understand the reality of the new rules and the games interface, I can focus on making my own adventures! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents To add to it... dev stream game play will be different. At least from previous ones. They will avoid a lot of stuff but still play but mostly probably build some something and go into a few poi. They will do some stuff but not a lot all while talking to chat. It will only be probably an hour or 2.... just sayin my point is if you want to see things you will see more content on streamer weekend. The dev stream will be for the most part Q&A. Just my opinion based on other times. Edited June 4, 2023 by crazywildfire (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
