Dude. Do you even know how many more advantages people that play the beta will have as compared to people who are brand new to the expansion? A shit ton. That is the definition of pay to win. And I never knew GGG would ever, EVER do this kind of crap.

They are offering closed beta keys in exchange for money. And what to do those closed beta keys give? An advantage over all the other grunts like me who never GOT TO PLAY. Then, once the league's are released.. who will be on top and know everything first? The people who were in beta. It's sickening.

You already missed the point and speak like the others.
The beta's aim is for finding bugs and all of you keep thinking of early access and advantages.
It's not really fully released as you know, unselected user could have watch the streamers want to know more.

How are they "offering" closed beta keys in exchange for money?
The supporter pack sales is closed before this announcement.

If you want to get in so badly why dont you try think from the bright side?
High-tier supporter aint on the list for beta invite timer anymore, granting normal citizen or mid-tier supporter higher chance to get in.

joerocket10r is right.

I'm sorry but did you not read the first post of this thread?

We will give Closed Beta access to top-tier supporters from previous sets of Supporter Packs:
Diamond Supporters (Closed Beta) were granted access today
Ruler/Eternal Supporters (Open Beta) will be granted access tomorrow
Conqueror Supporters (Release) will be granted access the next day
Grandmaster Supporters (Forsaken Masters) will be granted access the day after

Thanks for the inv, Chris. Very thoughtful of you. Not.

Seems like you are being greedy not giving them money, yet still playing their game. Also, even though I am getting into the beta in a few days now (thanks ggg), I will not be getting to the top of any ladders. Not to mention, all the tools and info on the game will likely be in wiki by the time 2.0 officially comes out. Also, not to mention, all the items will likely be wiped. If you want to get to the top of the league, take the time to read up on the new mechanics. Its all just numbers anyways.

Yeah I'm being so greedy when I already donated them money and have points LEFTOVER (unused). Yep, that makes total sense.

There's a very key point that everyone in this thread moaning on about pay-to-play etc. is missing.

Absolutely nobody knew that the T1 supporters would be getting keys for their contributions.

Not even the T1 supporters.

This has nothing to do with a P2W advantage, and everything to do with GGG giving a nod of appreciation back to the people who put half a month's salary toward making Act 4 even possible.

Without the T1 contributors, particularly early on in this game's existance, do you think PoE would even still be around? Highly unlikely.

AFAIC, give them keys. I get to continue to enjoy this game because wealthier folk than I could care less about throwing $1,000 across the world. They deserve a little something in return for keeping Wraeclast alive.

gz supporters

How about people who spend fiew houndred $ in GGG shop but they just did'nt upgrade to supporters packs????

Are certain accounts more likely than others to get in? I've played PoE for 3000 hours.

All accounts have an equal chance of being selected. It's important that we get a mix of new players and veterans. Their feedback and data is equally useful.

This is why I'm pissed. I saw nothing in here about being a streamer, or spending 1k+.

So the terms of access is amended, big view streamer or 1k cash.

P.W.E. incoming.

Should have referred this link as well for full disclosure...

"The Harvest" card has a picture of She-ablo on it, it's a play at Kripp!

Brilliant!!

I hope that we from the closed beta gets a key faster in the closed beta...
