Action Screenshot Competition Winners

Snorkle_uk - u are so right. Im done with poe contests because of lack of regulations. Its always unfair, like the whole game tbh. They should at least give some commendations to all cool screens. Like 25 points reward. But there is no thinking behind it.

yeah I hear ya lol, I felt a little down when I saw I didnt get a look in and then saw the ones that won it. I spent days and took probably 7000+ screen shots, if they had specifically said no red outlines or no screenshot taken text I could have even gone into photoshop and removed them fairly easy, Im a graphic designer its what I do for a living.

Its all good though, its not the first time this game has spat in my face, its not even the first time the game has spat in my face today lol, wont be the last, this competition was at least consistent with the rest of poe in that fashion.




Well, this was posted in the Competition Thread Post #1

Spoiler
Here are some additional guidelines:

As this is an Action Screenshot competition, the image should display some combat or other action in-game

Ideally take full non-cropped screenshots at a high resolution like 1920x1080

Please have shadows and texture quality turned on in the screenshots

Chat should be off

Try to minimise the amount of UI shown (i.e. item hovers, life/mana numbers, health bars, un-levelled-up gems, the F1 latency display, etc)

It's okay to use photoshop to fix tiny problems with the image, but please don't manipulate the screenshots to the extent that they look different than the game does

It's fine to enter multiple times

red outlines are quite ugly, how would you expect to win with them ?

Firstly, congratulations to all winners!!

IMO #1 is a pretty good, clean and simple fight.
However #4 is amazing, that well captured leap was sick and deseve a better position.
Congratulations to all the winners and future honorable mentions! <3

#1 is really good but #3 wins it for me, personally.
That fist fight is just such a good and aimed action shot.
#4 is (are) best.
I Propose: Players vote on contest entries in the future.

+1

No, I think the winning images are all a lot more crisp and clear. Your two examples are way too cluttered, it's hard to see what is actually happening.

Congrats to the winners! I like the warping witch the most, her pose is perfect.

Edited because I was rude. Sorry.

Wait - is there a way to turn them off?
Gotta check that.
