Can anyone clarify this? People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff Spoiler Seriously though, let's just say GGG never was all that good with timezones.

omg, a set release date! That countdown timer makes me so excited! I've been in the beta for a while now, and everything there so far is great. Can't wait! Release times in EST tend to be kinda rough for me, but I've not been late to a new league or launch yet :) ~ Lassittor ~ Arms wide open, I stand alone. I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.

However, nakieon was simply mixing up the S and D, which is pretty common. The underlying point that the timer is 1 hour off of Chris's post is correct. It's counting down to 3 pm EDT, not 4 pm as Chris's post would indicate. Support a free Hong Kong.

I need trading as an end game play style or I'm not putting any more time into this and NO, trade chat is HORRIBLE. nobody ever listens to anything I want to buy OR sell. hell I tried to give away uniques for fucking free and couldn't get anybody to take them cause trading the way is now takes an idiotic amount of EFFORT. If you want a trading game, go play hearthstone, or buy real trading cards, and trade them with friends. This is an ARPG, with a bit of trading on the side. you didn't even read my post, did you. anyway trading WILL come in the future, it's just the lack of information on WHEN that's pissing me off more and more, unhyped because I know exactly how things will go. playing my standard ark witch til mid 80s, then I give up cause I can't get better gear because I can't afford it or respectively FIND it for the right price because I'm not willing to lurk in the trade chat all day because something MIGHT come up. since I have no hope for significant game design improvements in this game I am officially done with Path of Exile. done for good Last edited by LMTR14#6725 on Jul 2, 2015, 6:06:30 AM	Posted by LMTR14#6725 on Jul 2, 2015, 6:03:07 AM Quote this Post

Well, this time all CHARS break. I am not talking about builds. PoE appealed to me and my friends because it promised a standard league where you could keep all your stuff. Until now. And, btw: I collected those friends over a 35 year lifespan. I'm not gonna farm my life for another 35 years just to find new friends to play PoE with. tl;dr: You don't understand the problem. I don't get the problem either. Nothing on the Live realm is going away. Some stuff is changing, but that's been happening for years. I also have no idea what distinction you are drawing between Characters and Builds. A character has a name, uses specific items, has leveled up gems and has experience. It has MTX aplied to it and it may have vaaled items in the appropriate colours for it's gems. A build is a way to build a character in a new league, You might need special uniques for it, but you can adjust it according to the items/gems you find. So: A character exists, a build is a blueprint.	Posted by t_golgari#2414 on Jul 2, 2015, 11:37:17 AM Quote this Post
