Can you just let us buy into The Awakening and be done with it? (இ﹏இ`｡)

Let's say you want 1000 "Closed Beta" Testers for the upcoming Expansion, just let half be randomized through the draw sign up over at http://www.pathofexile.com/theawakening and the other be bought by whoever really wants to get in. I know I'll be bored as shit after I finish up in the 1 Month Bloodlines/Torment races, and this seems like it makes sense to me. Oh and before anyone says that they will announce how they will pick it blah blah blah, yeah I know...

P.S. From whatever I've seen so far, it looks like the hype is real and you guys have done some seriously good work no matter what anyone else says. I've even thrown some more money at you guys last night ( ˘ ³˘)❤

Wouldn't it kind of defeat the purpose though?

People like me would pay so they could play, not test :)

I honestly don't care. I say sell them all if it means GGG can afford to put more features into the game because of it. SELL IT ALL and give the rest to streamers. That means us low budget/ no budget players can get more content!

GOGOGOGOGO DEW ET!

i really don't think they are gonna do that

That's the big fucking difference you seem to be missing.

It seems to be a solution to the level of entitlement I'm seeing on Feedback forums etc, without a clue what they're even entitled to...

Is it not better to have something tangible(well veritably tangible for an online game) for someone to say yeah I bought this thing, now let me in?

Fully echo these sentiments.

If you've already buckled under the CB QQ you would not last one minute in the cataclysm that would be unleashed if they were to sell access.

XD,money won't solve your problems. But seeing GGG theyll let you in anyway so dont worry

I don't know if it would be a move received by the community with open arms... I really wouldn't care to be honest. If they were to do it, I'd hope it would be packaged with the upcoming supporter packs.

sounds to me like they will be adding people in each week or so
