Information about Update 2.2.1

Good stuff!

the steam bug thing .. yeah.

I've crashed for the second time on the same spot on the Merciless labyrinth (2 areas after 2nd Izaro fight) today. I've crashed 3 times on Perandus packs on 2 different maps yesterday. The fact that you people had the audacity to advertise this as "your best release yet" is straight out disgusting. I don't want this game that I have loved and supported as best as I can for more than 2 years to go down the drain because of some incompetent programmers who don't know that they shouldn't release new content without optimizing stuff first.
Get your shit together GGG.

Good job failing to meet what you stated on the ascended points.

Path of Exile started off and still is a passion project for Grinding Gear Games. Programming is like blacksmithing. The best swords aren't made in a day, but slowly tempered and perfected over the course of a long time.

They have been working around the clock putting out patch after patch this last week to try and fix as many problem in as short amount of time possible. We should be thankful that they are doing everything they can to make the game run smoothly for everyone.

Personally, outside of server crashes, I haven't had ANY issues yet, so it's definitely not "incompetent programming".

I understand your frustration when you've had to do the same very hard Labyrinth run multiple times to no avail because of issues, I get it, but please refrain from blindly insulting people who are doing their absolute best for you.

Thank you, I know this, and as I said I support them in any way I can since I love this game. Even my current keychain is a chaos orb. But that doesn't make fact that the content should not have been released without being polished properly first any less true. People can gladly wait for an additional month to play a much more stable game.

Tons of people are experiencing the stability issues. The fact that you didn't have any doesn't mean anything of value.

Good Job!

I agree that things should be tested properly before release, but you have to understand that you can only test a game being played by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide, at the same time, so much in a studio. When it comes down to it, the true test of a game or expansion IS its release, and there will always be things to polish, as you've stated yourself.

So be patient and let them polish it. Nobody is forcing you to play now, you can come back in a month to play the polished game you so desire, right?

Hi GGG, I just want to mention that you might want to take a look at mysterious dark shrines... Basically I dont know what does they do because all 3 time i clicked on them it logged me out which resulted in caceling the progress in labyrint. Sad right it almost made me punch the screen when it was the third time. Anyway ill be glad if u fixed it ;)

The only fix to the lab is stability and normal izo is easier? Wow, you guys really think its good content dont you? lmao
