Eh,really not sure what to think yet but its not pretty..
Old raids are trashed,S2 is good for some quick old scrolls I guess so thats fine but nothing else. 'did not expect such scrolls from a ~1 minute run'
S3 is the only raiding 'zone' left,not a fan of S3 in general.
Damage is off the scale,this is even crazier than what we had back in XE with full combo bonus,+5 armor set and a +13 lvl 90 with 8% awaken stone and I'm doing 32k bloody thread crits on a capped boss.
4 ppl party is not my thing,it just feels weird and a chaos if you are the only one 'geared' in the pt:P
I like the auto pickup cores/ergs and the faster run speed.
Can't really see the performance improvement on my pc,since 4 is the max I can't really test it,never had issues with only 4 anyway.
And the feeling I get from this update is that it gives me nothing to do actually,even less than before.
I can't even do an old school Ship run anymore
Built the system a bit more than 2 years ago,some parts are newer but still have warranty on almost everything:
Case: Sigma Luna Silver 'this thing is like 8+years old and not in the best condition by now'
Mobo: Asrock B85 Pro 4
CPU: Intel core i 3-4160 'locked 3.6Ghz' with a cheap Arctic cooler on it.
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 950 Xtreme 'overclocked to around a stock 960 performance'
Ram: x2 4GB Corsair Vengeance DDR 3
PSU: Thermaltake 450W 'non fancy version'
Storage: x2 very old small samsung hdds like ~200gb and a 1 year old WD Black 1TB
Display: Samsung synchmaster bx2450L
A bit aging in general but so far its enough for my needs,runs Vindi fine considering its Vindi,could even enable some extras in Nvidia Inspector to make the game look 'better'.
I was too focused/busy with Vindi for years and missed out on some good titles so now I'm playing older games and those don't have too high requirements anyway,might build a completely new system in 1-2 years if everything goes well.
Personally I'm playing the game on a budget system like:
i 3 4160 cpu
Gigabyte GTX 950 Xtreme
2x 4GB DDR 3
Win 7 ultimate
1920x1080 resolution on fairly high settings,mainly lowered the cpu heavy settings and some that I don't care about.
Can host pretty much anything,S3 and some S2 raids only with multi core tho otherwise its unplayable for me.
Game is just really badly optimized and it was barely utilizing even my gpu,had to actually make the game look better/more gpu demanding with some extra settings in Nvidia Inspector to stress it somewhat and I'm still CPU bottlenecked in the game:P
But then again,with 4 players being the max party size for most runs in the upcoming update,I wouldn't worry about that anymore.
Tbh buying/building an expensive overkill PC just for Vindi is a waste of money
So having a diff opinion than 'blindly' liking everything nexon throws at us at this point makes someone a whining pig,well okay i guess
Excuse ppl for voicing their concerns about a game they played for years and like/liked.
Tbh ppl who whine about whiners are the worst but enjoy your rose tinted glasses even tho its clear that things aint fine with this game:P
A bunch of quality of life changes wont make up for all the shet they do to the game,but thats just me.
Good that i don't really play anymore but i still dont feel good about this..
and 2 others.
