On partyhopping in D3...

Goodness... I've not logged into TERA since D3 launched on the 15th! >.< Definitely didn't think I would enjoy it so much considering it's not an MMO and I've never played the other Ds. I'm currently Level 56 on my main (wizard) and have a monk and demon hunter lowbies on the US servers (yep the same laggy ones that are down alot). Got to play alot in between all those Error messages, but I never did get alot of those Errors to be honest... just the launch day.

While the game is starting to get a lil grindy now that I'm at Hell Mode, it is still infinitely fun to play with friends! :) I love the game hopping system Blizzard has implemented based on its battle.net. It's really easy to join your friends in their games or have them join yours no matter which point of the quest everyone is at :) Party hopping has become my favourite thing to do lol.

I had one major issue with it though... A few nights ago I added an old collegemate. Nothing special about this guy, not spoken to him in ages, and figured its ok to add him since I have a ton of friends on bnet anyway, its not like I'll ever game with him. So what happens is this, he first entered one of my games I was playing with my friend Cat (I hopped into her Act 1 Nightmare game for abit). He popped in, didnt say anything at all, and after awhile left the game. We didn't think too much of it and continued our game. Much later that same night he entered one of my games AGAIN. This time I was playing my lowbie alt (a L20+ Monk doing Act 3) and had another low level friend with me that I'm helping powerlevel. This guy enters my game, doesn't say anything and sits AFK AT BASE! ~___~ Like WTF. So now I had to deal with mobs meant for a 3man party alone. I literally raged and tried to boot him out of my group, which is usually just a click away but for some reason... THERE IS NO SUCH OPTION. I removed him from friends list instead and started a new game. Its ridiculous, someone needs to find that remove/kick from group option and tell me where it is. =End of rant=


On another note, I have just updated my layout with a premade template. Gotta love this PINK! Hehe :D Yes I know the blog is called Gloom of Night and pink just doesnt fit the gloom word but who cares yea? ;)
