Yeah, nice logic you have there. My play style or what league I play in is irrelevant. it's very relevant. you're arguing that other players will have an edge over you, yet you don't compete in any of the challenge leagues. you're just arguing/trolling for the sake of arguing/trolling.

A4's town theme song has been here for years: https://soundcloud.com/pibadi/path-of-exile-act4-town Many ppl knows A4 has been under developing long time ago, they did stated they're doing 10acts before(not sure it's still the same). But what you reply in here didn't make it (as you said) pay2win. They close the sales before this, if they really want to make money out of it they'll continue the sales. Calm down alright, they're gradually increasing the amount of testing access when their server capacity allows. You can't play anyway if you're in there with 10k of players in the same time and crashing.	Posted by jacky5047#4335 on Apr 23, 2015, 3:48:53 AM Quote this Post

the more i read the posts here the more im going back to my previous statement that if its close beta it should be closed, no company does a close beta that is streamed for cheap marketing, a close beta is done with no info leaked with x number of people invited in privacy this is just massive fail from ggg, if the expansion is not ready then stop with all the bullshit and realease it when its ready in the mean time you could always do bullshit leagues like you did in the past 6 months.

" TheManWhoLaughs wrote: How can people be so hateful? I am so sorry for GGG that they have to take this unfair shit from so many ungrateful people. P2W because certain people get CLOSED Beta Access EARLIER and others haven´t got in YET? That´s just ridiculous! All the information which could be of benefit on the day of actual release is available on the forums, reddit etc. The definition of PW2 is that you get actual gameplay advantages ingame via buying stuff (e.g. more xp, better gear, buff potions and so on). This is not the case here! GGG is the fairest, most moral and ethical developer of a FREE TO PLAY game ever. That´s not fanboyism, that´s a fact. You can enjoy all of the game´s content without paying a single cent. A closed Beta remains a closed beta and some people getting access to it earlier doesn´t make GGG a bad, immoral company. Some people should really question their attitude towards these hard working developers. Being passionate about the game is nice, but this is just pure disrespectful hate. ^ This +1000. I want to think that this disrespectful people, although loud, don't represent even a 10% of the community.	Posted by gochan#0288 on Apr 23, 2015, 3:52:59 AM Quote this Post

Everyone deserves access to closed beta for an equal level playing field at launch. Meh, if i was Chris i would have just given CB keys to whoever i wanted, like all of them, he didnt. Hell, i wouldnt of even advertised CB, all this crying on forum does nothing for the game. You neglect to see what the "crying" is about. You start with everyone on the same playing field. Spoiler Posted by Chris on April 13, 2015 12:43 AM Grinding Gear Games 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. Then you amend it once Spoiler Posted by Chris on April 19, 2015 8:32 PM Grinding Gear Games When the countdown hits zero, the Closed Beta servers will become live. The Beta Invite Timer will then start selecting users at the rate of one per five minutes. As soon as we can, we'll invite Alpha testers and certain Streamers to the Beta to join the members of the public who are selected. Then you rub salt in the wound Spoiler Posted by Chris on April 22, 2015 10:53 PM Grinding Gear Games We've also given Closed Beta access to the 260 Diamond supporters that generously contributed $1000 back during Path of Exile's Closed Beta. Our plan for scaling up Beta access for existing users has two prongs. 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 We'll also be running some events in-game over the next few weeks that award keys. Tomorrow's news post is about a solo (trading disabled) five-day event that we'll be running starting on the weekend.	Posted by Valhurien#4498 on Apr 23, 2015, 3:53:07 AM Quote this Post
