Closed Beta FAQ for Path of Exile: The Awakening
" Any form of pay to win is against GGG policy. Effectively that would mean pay/paid for a supporter pack and get a better chance at a key and also set a precedent for future events, real or perceived. Anything like this where people have paid money to get an advantage creates bad feelings. .

" So the original beta supporter backs was pay to win? ;) And this would give no in game advantage as it's a beta for testing purposes that in the end will be wiped... In game contact @MajorAsshole

" paying/paid for a supporter pack to get an advantage to win a key ... Hey I would love an extra chance to win, but there would be an awful lot of people out there that would be butthurt because I had an advantage and that would be really really bad for the game. . -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 100% Ethical, most of the time. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- .

" You do realize that the original closed beta supporter packs came with beta keys right? Which kinda nullifies your argument of it setting a bad precedent. In game contact @MajorAsshole

" I wasn't playing back then so I don't know. I'm guessing GGG were raising funds to keep producing the game and pay wages, bills etc ? As it is a non-sub game. That would be a pay to play/test situation with a purchasable key, not a %chance to win. I think GGG are doing this the fairest way possible. Anyway GL with getting a key :) hope you get one in the first few days. I think a huge amount of people will get the opportunity to test it out once the initial bugs are removed and more keys are handed out. I'll be watching/listening to a streamer play a build that's close to what I want to make if I don't get in right away. Plenty of opportunity to pick up info there with their followers asking questions and pointing out stuff. .

" This is where I disagree, it's fine though we can't all agree on everything. " Hope so to as I was taking a break until Act 4 and this limbo thing isn't productive at all, if I had known before the one month leagues that Act 4 was so far away as three months I'd got my self a good raid guild in WoW to pass the time.

" Wait so you're saying it was 'pay to play/test' for the first CLOSED BETA as there was no chance to win. Yet for the Awakening CLOSED BETA, which will include a full wipe as did the first CLOSED BETA, would magically be 'pay to win' and not 'pay to play/test' if you could purchase a key? Riiiiiiight. Please do continue... Last edited by Ascendic#3763 on Apr 15, 2015, 12:52:30 AM

OK, I am going to ask the questions that everyone else to too afraid to ask GGG.
Will there be fishing poles? Will the new passive tree have (+) to lures, sinkers, and bobbers. Will I finally be able to catch some fish to put up on that damn fish rack in my hideout that I bought from Tora? This big pile of Rhoas I've been killing aren't going to pluck themselves you know. |
