Play Path of Exile 2 for Free on August 29 - September 1 PDT

Dang, I might just go to work and log in on Saturday LOL

That's really cool of you guys though!

For anyone on Xbox, just to be sure, you can download early via the Xbox mobile app.

ggg- 'we started to ddos our own servers to test them'

i guess they want more of a challenge... respect

I have to assume you're confident in this, because it's a huge risk to do a free weekend the same weekend you're releasing the patch. You are banking on being able to handle a huge influx of players. If you fail, free players won't buy and people that bought will feel cheated.

Frankly, as someone who has paid to play early access, I'm gonna be pissed if things are not working because a bunch of free players are clogging the servers. And if something else goes wrong unrelated to the free weekend, players now have this low-hanging fruit to blame.

If you're this confident about it working, why not build hype over the first week and do a free weekend the weekend after? If this is a stress test, it's a huge risk. Either way, it doesn't seem well thought-out.

Please reconsider.

It's free but there's a timer, thank you & disappointing. Point purchases on my PS4 cannot be combined with purchases on PC, very disappointing, because my PS4 point purchases exceed 1 million rupiah & if combined with points on PC, I can get an early access key.

That's some crazy bs right here?

GGG hate your core players even more? Giving the free option is just ruining the first days for everyone else who ALREADY bought your Earlyaccess game and still have some hope?

You are disgusting.


WHY DELETING THIS POST????


Someone is triggered by fwe words?

I have already purchased the early access package in version 0.2. Do I need to purchase a new early access package in version 0.3?

I think it might be a bad idea to run the free weekend the same weekend as the release - if there are technical issues and new players join they’ll probably have a bad impression. And for those with an already not so positive impression, their experience might be impacted by the additional traffic. :/

Personally I think it’s cool, but we all know how the internet is filled with highly sensitive and temperamental man-children.

I hope everything goes well with the servers
