Path of Exile 3.6.0 will not support Windows XP or Vista

:(

It would be good to know. What percentage of users currently use Dx9 or Dx9ex?

Goodbye to more than 60 FPS editing the "production_Config.in".
> 60fps even with heavy builds or heavy environments (mines, perandus chests, etc)

My laptop cant run POE while using direct x 11. I have windows 10 on it and can run the game just fine using direct x 9.

are you telling me that you no longer wanting me to play the game ?

well then , the game wont run on my wifes laptop anymore and so she wont play anymore either......

No we wont buy a new Laptop for her just for PoE ... lol

and i dont care much anymore either....

stupid decision GG ..

in every normal game u can disable shadows,which helps ALOT of people, cause shadows eat too much ALWAYS. But no, we cant do tis in poe...what a shitty position. meh.
Anywya, thats good about dx9 and old windows, but still... thats stupid choice for shadows. Just stupid. But ok, maybe after alot of guys wilth old PCs will leave game cause of this - you will think better. And if they wont - ok, i was wrong. But i doubt this.

It's a financial decision.

If you have a low end pc,it's less likely to spend money on the game.

Played POE since beta to 3.6.0 update, it was fun while it lasted.

You guys all need to relax, doesn't take much effort to move to windows 8.1 / 10.

Stop using wifi, then, and get a much better PC, exile.

Did you know that wifi has nothing to do with load times at all?

I was about to buy new PC for the wife so we could play POE together again, now I should buy 2 new PCs... See you next Christmas! :)

Wow chris!;D after me spending so much real gold into your game u finally found a way how to rip us both with my best friend. Wow...now we are not able to play the game so...farewell it was a good times those 7years

I use Windows 7 so nbd.

However I've been forced to use DX9 since 3.0 due to the game refusing to run on DX11 like it had been previously.

There are still a few threads in tech support with people experiencing the same issue. Originally the forced DX9 ran very poorly, but at least it ran. Some time later a patch came along and made it run just fine again, like it used to with DX11 for me anyways.

Now I guess I'll have to hope DX11 will work again or I'll have to move over to PS4.
