I was just wondering if you mostly play solo or if you play in a group. Playing with clan members or friends is also considered group play in the poll.
I am just really curious, cos I personally do not play solo, only when I farm materials of course - so only when I "have to" play solo.
Farming gear, leveling, etc. I only play in group. Mostly public and also with friends.
I just kinda think this game was made to play with other people, so I dont really have fun playing alone.
Group play. Lately i can't even get myself to farm anything solo. Gotta be in TS and talk to people. And even when i'm not directly in a group i'll be doing material farming with other people from the communities. The only stuff i do solo sometimes is RIF and bounties on T6 for fun.
You need a 50/50 option in the poll haha. I play solo half the time, and I play with friends from my friends listwhen they are online. I don't use any of the communities and I am not in a clan.
I am tempted to start using the "Split Bounty Farming" community but I am told everyone runs on normal and I like to run on T2 for the bump in leg chance for my RORG.
I prefer to play solo but in the current state of the game, where the only two efficient ways of farming are RiFing and Lootsharing I "have to" run in groups. I have always played D3 solo BUT for rare exceptions when my friends wanted to play together.
Solo when I do play, most people I've played with like to either rush through maps or go off doing their own thing. Then I remember why I liked playing solo in the first place.
I like playing with my friends. I don't do public games because I have enough friends in my clan that at least one or two of us are on most of the time. We run rifts or bounty's now that RoS came out but when one of the clan members want to build a new class I'll run with them through the story.
We use mumble to talk while playing and that adds so much to the game IMO. My clan consists of friends all over the country so using mumble is a great way to keep up with friends and talk about the game or anything else that comes up.
I like to play with friends but that's trivial. And yesterday I actually left our clan group because I couldn't stand all those colored animations anymore. Don't know if that's the norm, but playing with FotF Crusaders and Tal Wizards who all wear those horribly irritating yellow wings feels like pony lvl on steroids ;(
I would really love an option for me not to display specific things. Like other players spell effects and cosmetic items. I can't just turn everything off because I need to see monster affixes etc
I've played in random public games / groups 95%+ of the time since RoS. Mainly because I just find it less boring. After 1 - 3 runs solo, I'm ready to take a break. Heck, sometimes even before I go through 1 run. Likewise, joining random public games can be disappointing as well with people standing around staring at the wall in town and various other things of that nature, but it's usually not too difficult to just join another game or two, or three. Usually can find somebody looking to play.
I just joined my first clan this week in fact. Joined one of the Rift it Forward clans; yes for the purpose of farming shards. Unfortunately, however, this clan only had ~80 members when I requested membership (the only other one had too many requests for me to send a request at the time), and thus far after ~5 hours of being logged in as a member of the clan, I've only ever seen maybe 7 or 8 people online at any one time, and I've never seen even one word on clan chat. Nothing about low opens, high opens, nothing. Not even uber runs. Nothing. Hmmm.. maybe too soon to try a different clan. I might just jump back to my WD from my crusader and just push my own T1 rifts, and see if anyone wants to re-open for me.. Kind of the opposite of being able to burn through ~200 frags in exchange for 'free' shards, much less gaming the system for fragment-less shards.
Mostly solo. I love group play but most of the time I'm playing in short bursts, going back to town, alt-tabbing, going AFK, etc., and that sort of playstyle is not really friendly to multiplayer.;)

Only do full groups forquick cash and drops, it's way chaotic and not that pleasant an experience.

What? Me worry?

I'd say I'm about a 60/40 in favor of group play.
Though its more sad how the most prominent fan community supports the exploiting.
