Now you guys r rating players depends on $$$??
Less than $1000 spent no BETA KEY!!
Over $1000 spent BETA KEY!!


Funny thing is, even biblical verses are proving their behavior.

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.


We the players, are the griefs. GGG giving beta key access to $ supporters is just the beginning. What is next? Hopefully this is the furthest they will go. Because quite frankly, anything further than this and it's just a lost arc at that point. Pun Intended.

??? do you realize the world we live in, if you are really that religious, go to church, stop playing games about killing people, and go serve the poor. You are a giant hypocrite for not preaching the word of god, if that is your argument. More dumb posts by you good job. Money drives the world, not faith, power and greed drive the world, and this isn't even greedy, this is you guys crying because you yourselves did not get keys so shut it. If you had keys you wouldn't be saying a "god damn" thing. I myself have watched the time probably over 36 hours, hoping for a key. But no I do not have one. I am not sitting here whining like a baby because i do not have one. Grow the fuck up put on your big boy pants, learn what patience is, i mean there are parabels in the bible about it, how about you reference the ones about patience.... lmao

Power and greed drive evil, not the world. Love and compassion drives the world (well, it's supposed to). But I'm not getting into that argument here as that is spam.

My point still stands and you haven't gave one ounce of evidence claiming that those closed beta players do not have an advantage. I'm waiting. (The ones who got access from their $)

Just let me know, Mr. 420.

Religious prose aside...

I put forth an open Challenge to anyone willing to Prove that Closed Beta is not a clear advantage for the knowledge and experience required to have a chance at being competitive in temp leagues and races. Recently we got to read the thoughts and insights of several of this most recent league's top placing individuals. They took time, and heaps and heaps of experience and put it to work and they crushed it. Or rather Because of their knowledge in the specific area of advancing through end game maps, something gain from experience with the process, they were able to turn that part of the game into a clear advantage for themselves, and somewhat of a hindrance to would-be competitors who were initially starved out of the higher level maps

Now, while I think it's fairly obvious experience in the Beta will certainly be better than no experience in the beta for racers or those wishing to top the ladder

IF YOU DISAGREE: Find a new player, they don't have to be brand new but "has never been to cruel" should be good enough stipulation. Now make them a serious contender for the 5 day self found coming up. (Or the one after that, or anyone in the near-immediate future) With the condition that "Until the day of the event, they may not PLAY any PoE. They can watching PoE, they can read about PoE, Talk about it, JUST NOT PLAY IT"

And if they can place among the top. Fine experience isn't such an advantage. But if more likely they get outpaced by those with heaps of race and/or self found experience then gee, maybe playing the game you're going to have a competitive temp event for would help improve your chances a bit no?
who cares if they have an advantage? does it matter, and the game is being reworked, changed, balanced, the game isn't even going to be the same on release. if you think love and compassion drive the world, then there is really no point in arguing with a clueless person. Do you lived a sheltered life? Have you travelled anywhere in the world. Because I have been all over the world and believe me compassion and kindness are no where near the things that make things happen in this world. Any one to believe so is blind or a fool.


Mr. 420? I believe others have claim to that, cheech and chong, prince of pot, you know more of those guys, but than again your knowledge of most things seems to be very lacking? are you like 16 and have you experienced anything in life?



* go watch some streamers to gain the same knowledge and advatages*

also you have no skill if you think they are gonna have some kind of huge advantage....

This is all about money, GGG know what they doin now they made such a big hype of their work act 4 announcements etc to make ppl want play it like hell then they make a timer and closed beta to make them want it even more.
They see the hype don't donate as much as they want so announced that the ones who paid the most 1000+ dolars 500+ and 250+ to enter in next days, i think in week or two we will see a Beta Key package for sale ^^ tell me if i am wrong

Are certain accounts more likely than others to get in?

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.

BUSTED!


I'm sorry to learn that you were prohibited by law or by the GGG brute squad from having an equal chance to buy a diamond supporter pack. I know that feeling.. .


When I mailed GGG $1,000 (in low unmarked bills, of course) to get a diamond supporter pack, I didn't hear back from them for over a week.

Then I heard loud footsteps outside and two people in strange wet suits (I recognize them now as the Steam Powered Armor) showed up banging on my door with six linked mauls. When I opened the door, they threw my money back at me and said "We did an ancestry check, and there isn't one person of nobility in your bloodline. Your application for Diamond status is DENIED!"

I was shocked by what they said, so when I felt the slap on my face, I took an additional 50% damage. "You just slapped me with a wet fish!" I shouted.

"You'll never be able to verify that!" the taller of the two chuckled. Then they barged into my house, saying "We need to ascertain that your Kiwis are licensed and properly housed."

Luckily Arthur and Fenchurch (my Divine and Regal Rhoas respectively, since they can sort of fly) knew to hide under the bed. After stomping around for a few minutes, the smaller of the two the two laughed in a feminine voice, and said "We'll be confiscating these!" and she pilfered my Staghorn Fern, Sago Palm and Ghost Orchid.

Carrying my prized plants, they finally left my house. The taller of the two Steam suit thugs turned and yelled out "We'll be back when you least expect us!"

The smaller one said, "I wish I could hear the lamentation of his woman when she discovers what I took."

I think I know who she is, but I dare not say anymore.

For those who don't recognize it, this is fiction - just like many of the other posts in this thread

Yeah, because watching a streamer play is definitely the same experience as me in-game and using my fingers on my keyboard and having fun... Yeah no. It's not.
