Watch the Live International Race Event this Weekend!

"
the ingame pop-up gave a faulse alarm .
this is a race yes , but i cant participate , i can only watch .

so all i see from ggg lately is :

"we added a thousand new overpriced mircotransactions , please gamble ur money on a chance to get em"
"we added a thousand new overpriced mircotransactions , please gamble ur money on a chance to get em"
"we added a thousand new overpriced mircotransactions , please gamble ur money on a chance to get em"
"NEW RACE , IS GONNA BE AWESOME, RACE FOR EVERYBODY , IS AWESOME (its not for everybody you fool , just watch and cheese your way into our mtx)"
"we added a thousand new overpriced mircotransactions , please gamble ur money on a chance to get em"

--------------

YOU KNOW WHAT THIS EVENT IS FOR ANY PLAYER WHO'S HAD SOME UNIVERISTY EDUCATION?
ITS A DECOY
YOU THROW THE BONE OF COMPETITION , ONLY TO DRAG POEPLE INTO WATCHING OTHERS "WINNING" INGAME MTX
SO THAT THEY FEEL THE NEED TO GET EM ALSO
YOU GIVE YOUR POINTS , WHICH COST NOTHING TO YOU , SO YEA , YOU CAN GIVE A BILLION DOLLARS IN POINTS VALLUE ONLY CAUSE YOURE THE ONLY SOURCE PROVIDING THE POINTS AND BALLANCING THEM TOWARDS REAL CURRENCY
YOU FOCUS THO ON THE VALUE OF THE POINTS , AND YOU MAKE SURE YOU GIVE MANY , TO CREATE IMPRESSION , AFTER ALL IF YOU GIVE 20DOLLARS OF FAKE MONEY MAKES YOU LOOK SMALL , WHEN YOU COULD GIVE 20000 DOLLARS OF FAKE MONEY AT THE SAME COST (WHICH IS ZERO)
----

Another thing that surprises me tho is how you insist on mystery boxes .
It's pure gambling , the whole gaming community has started to open eyes against them and their unethical nature and their manipulative action . But yet you found a meta-box technique , with MTX CRAFTING!!!!!!
-------

Complains aside , the game is exceptional , so dont try to turn it into an old and used wh*re
it's still quite young , fresh and exotic


While I agree that GGG could definitely give more microtransaction points per real world dollars, at least with PoE's mystery boxes they eventually become available in the microtransaction store after a month. Other games, cough Overwatch cough, their loot box specials become rare forever...so it really feels like gambling in that instance.

Even though I'm personally opposed to the implementation of loot boxes in any game, it should still be remembered that they are a tool in the box for game developers. And at the end of the day this game is still free to play and thankfully the microtransactions have no significant bearing over gameplay. You can still experience everything there is to experience in PoE without paying a single cent.

I'm also completely disinterested in races so none of this means much to me...but it should be remembered that it is Tencent (PoE's Chinese publisher) that is doing the cash prize race and they can afford to. They are a 500 billion dollar tech firm after all...

Not interested in this, but if you ever make a show about how you work and design stuff, count me in and I will be watching.

No thanks, fix your game please, thanks.



So much ^^ this. Frankly, I find this whole race thing highly condescending and insulting.

I understand these things are likely scheduled in advance, but in light of the catastrophic things going on in the game, surely a higher priority would be fixing this debacle. No, instead it's a good idea to give more elitists some cash money and pretend everything is fine while tons of the player base melt away disillusioned....
I loved Path of Exile.
I do not love Path of RNG.
Bloom gives me migraines, the over usage of darkness strains my eyes.
Save our game, remove all of the constant RNG and allow us to turn off Bloom or give us an in game brightness control!

Is Beastiary really that broken? (and I switch to Standard regularly to complete master dailys and the like) I'm still enjoying myself and can trade things on Beastiary for fair prices. Maybe I'm just not noticing how broken the mechanics are...

THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT BESTIARY.
THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT DUPES.
THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT THE AVERAGE PLAYER PARTICIPATING IN AN EVENT.

So some people are pissed because they were not invited to the Olympic Games. They are pissed because they were not invited to the World Cup.

The Olympic Games is not about you. The World Cup is not about you. And this race is not about you.

This is also not about picking people because they are popular. I've run over 1200 races. I don't know any of these people, but I recognize some of the names because they are consistently damn good racers even when RNG doesn't fall in their favor. I dare anyone saying stuff like that to kill Piety or Kitava in the time allowed. I doubt if most of them could do it even if they started with a stash full of uber gear.

Forget about Bestiary and dupes for a while and just enjoy what the game has to offer. Enjoy watching the best of the best.

There is a saying that the best compliment is "You make it look easy". These guys will make it look easy. The things they do will look very much like what you do. But try to do it yourself, in the same amount of time, and you won't even come close.
Wow so the Elite gets another thing to play around they have been crying on their platforms and the rest of us is fucked with a garbage ass league . I really cant believe what in the actual fuck is happening right now.....
Exactly, lets hand the elite 1% another treat b/c clearly the other 99% arent sick of that. Oh wait, whats that, they are, oh they nerfed sextants b/c of that, wait what, oh they got rid of breach this league too b/c of that, wait what, theres more, they nerfed div cards and burned the vault to the ground b/c of that.

For fks sake GGG, can you quit groveling to your precious streamers long enough to fix your GD game. Nearly every person I see on the forums bought your latest supporter packs well before beastiary launched and crashed in flames, I personally dont buy the supporter packs b/c I hate the outfits but I own every type of premium tab and a mtx outfit, weapon skin, footprint etc.

You make money hand over fist and you love to remind us in-game every hour about your latest MTX for sale so how about using some of that doe for the game. Stop priortizing the next cash grab and get back to what made this game great, caring about the product.

PoE always stood out b/c it was the only actual f2p game with a cash shop that didnt leave you feeling naked and abused a month into playing.

FIX THE GAME, we dont need more chain bikinis and unicorn wings.

close the bestiary league and make a new
Whelp this thread has turned into quite a bash hasn't it? xD

Seems aight, i hope one of the international guys wins, cos asians seem to be so dull :p

Lmao at someone mentioning education and saying that this is a decoy. What does learning how to perform one specific narrow job, have to do with overall intelligence, critical thinking capabilities, creativity etc? Like...?

Keep hitting it hard GGG and nvm these whiners. I mean one little event by (not even GGG themselves) and everyone is crying xD
Quit after Legion, rejoined PoE to see what the game's like now in 3.12.
