Man looking at the gameplay and difficulty, I am so in.
Still not gonna buy it if its free. My god probably 6 months to actual launch.

 

[Mikado]

Merc feels good, you need to get used to it. Try WASD if you're on keyboard.

Movement's not the problem, he just does no damage. Possibly becauseI've seen like 2 trash mobs before the devourer fight so literally no gear has dropped yet. It's a bit of a different paradigm coming from Poe 1, that's for sure. I guess we're supposed to just farm the lead-up areas more aggressively.

 

[Rentahamster]

Not sure if it’s same for you guys but I bought the first pack and when I go to store it doesn’t say I have 300 coins like I should. Any ideas?

I think the store is cooked right now since the website is still down too.

 

[Lokaum D+]

Finally at home, 3k queue, server are live, my daughter is at my mom, i have a beer and snacks and the rest of the night for myself.

 

[Antwix]

Got stuck on a loading screen and now i'm at 8K queue again

same thing just happened to me

 

[Spukc]

Steam reviews are so hive mind lol. "Very positive" reviews, fuck you. Game doesn't work, yet any other game like this would be "Overwhelmingly Negative".

Like MS flightsimulator

 

[Marlenus]

When I checked my account online it had my 300 coins. Not checked in game yet.

Don't worry it's still the very early game.

 

[Spukc]

Queue went up from 3K to 10K because i pressed the circle button on my ps5 controller

 

[Kangx]

On the pro. Best mode is PSSR with 120hz. Damn. Super sharp running at the high 80 and low 90. Best game ever.

It's not free. I know I'll get push back but this is a free to demo game. If you like it you need to spend money and the $30 goes toward the essentially required stash tabs. Just get it.

 

[Marlenus]

None of my MTXs are supported. Don't have many apart from the exalted effects from the OG open beta supporter packs. Presume they will be ported over eventually.

 

[DryvBy]

Some of the classes are really cooked Mercenary feels like absolute garbage - takes like 20 minutes of kiting to deal with devourer
If the whole game is going to be like this I think it might not be for me ...

If you're coming from Diablo 3 and 4, this will be a big adjustment. Those are arcade style games. This is a much more difficult DRPG (Diablo RPG).

It's free if they just want to play the campaign tho, you dont need stash tabs for that

 

[amigastar]

Defeated the first boss before you get to the camp and died after i killed him, all the loot disappeared after i respawned.

 

[Pegasus Actual]

The "create Steam account" thing just times out. I kind of don't want to go to their website and make an account that way but maybe that's the play? (for example will I need to jump through that hoop anyway to claim Twitch drops?)

Also for "requested name", do these need to be unique? Just kind of curious if going for an obviously already taken name would be contributing to the woes I'm having in getting the account registered. Can't check the exact wording as now it says I don't have access when I run the game. RIP.

 

[Duellist]

When I checked my account online it had my 300 coins. Not checked in game yet.

Dumb question but How do you check it online?

 

[Marlenus]

Another thing I like I bound an attack to the interaction key. It is smart enough that if there are enemies around it won't pick up loot instead.

Some pretty damn good qol features so far.

Duellist go to www.pathofexile.com and login

 

[Shubh_C63]

I can imagine inventory management being crazy so would probably buy it as qol. Does the in-game currency also goes on sale.

 

[DavidGzz]

I guess. I didn't even beat PoE 1 and had to buy them. But I love trying out all of the characters, plus a disorganized material stash is gross lol. Also, I can't wrap my head around anyone who just plays the campaign in these games. It's a no life genre.

 

[Herbspiceguy]

So apparently I need to go through these steps:



At no point did come up with me that I had to do this, I figured just activating the Steam key would be enough.

NGL, this is pretty aggravating to find out about this now, when the site is not working and the reason I can't even play the game.

At least they acknowledged the issue:

 

[TintoConCasera]

Getting some stutters on the worm nest. Doesn't seem to be graphics related, weird.

 

[DavidGzz]

How did GGG make a better looting system with controller than Blizzard in EA? Picking up and sorting items on the ground is already better in this game. I can't get over this game. Rogers is my new Miyazaki.

 

[Lux R7]

started the playthrough with my wife in coop, we got to the first boss and the server crashed however the game is cool and the controller support is great so far

 

[Marlenus]

The devourer is already an interesting boss and it is only boss 2. Kicked my ass twice so far but still getting to grips with the timing of the warrior. The melee is soo much better than PoE 1.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Ooof first death against the worm boss. Glad that the game feels hard, at least for a newb like me. Diablo 3 was a cakewalk compared to this.

 

[Luipadre]

This shit feels so good on controller. Looks and runs amazing on my PC

 

[WaterOnix]

I've died a handful of times to the first couple bosses. This is nice

 

[TintoConCasera]

Does rolling have iframes? Or is it just for moving away?

 

[Rentahamster]

If you're in a party, only take your own portals or use waypoints. Each time I took a party member's portal the game got stuck

 

[Rentahamster]

has iframes

 

[TintoConCasera]

has iframes

Could it be only for melee and ranged attacks, but stuff that slams the ground always hit you no matter what? I feel like I always take damage from the devourer's slam attack.

Got my first crash btw. At least the queue seems to go fast.

Yeah, I think you need to be clear for ground effects. I think I read that somewhere. But I saw a guy playing against a boss that had like a wave attack that wasn't a ground effect and he rolled right through it unscathed.

 

[Marlenus]

My frame rate started to dip as the worm fight went on. Might turn on dynamic resolution but will see how it goes.

 

[amigastar]

Could it be that minions revive them by themselves when they die? I mean i don't have a command for reviving with the witch.

 

[DavidGzz]

On a timer, yep.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Yeah. You set up your desired squad and then they just reappear on their own.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Ok so I got my first few currency things, exalted orbs ans orbs of augmentation. I heard those are more common in POE2 than in the previous game, so... What are you guys doing? Spending them or saving them for later?

 

[clarky]

Game is living up to the hype.

Feels great to play on a pad, is a decent challenge from the off, looks and runs amazing on my PC and is super fun. Got some good combos set up on the Monk. Hit level 7.

 

[Rentahamster]

Does anyone else want to party?

Send a message to Rentahamster in game for an invite to the guild, too

 

[DavidGzz]

I used mine right away. Upgraded my club and armor. Worth.

Just started over with Monk cause I got a sweet staff. He plays sooo differently. I love it. Maybe I'll find something for my Warrior to kill the Devourer. Dude is tough.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Lame thread title.

Purchased but haven't played.
How is running on each format?

 

[Rentahamster]

Save at least a little for when you hit the next tier of items. But until them spend them, especially if you're lacking in gooditems.

 

[Antwix]

Really liking sorc as of now. Some nice synergy stuff even at low level. Saw a lot of global chat saying they had stuttering but haven't really seen much of any on pc.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

So what's this like on PS5 Pro? Wife and I are looking for a new couch coop game after getting through Baldur's Gate 3.

 

[Duellist]

So are you locked into a class variant or can you change them later? Didn’t even realize you had to pick one lol.

 

[DaleinCalgary]

hmm, I want to start tonight after work but the que comments make me think twice

 

[Duellist]

hmm, I want to start tonight after work but the que comments make me think twice

I was like 16000 in q and once it started moving it took about 5 minutes to get in. I haven’t stopped yet so not sure how it is right now.

 

[DavidGzz]

Got kicked and then logged right back in, no queue. Glad they got it sorted!

 

[Herbspiceguy]

They don't have it sorted. Many of us are locked out because of account linking shenanigans.
