lmao a PTR in early access, what's next? pay extra 20$ to have access?
umm i see nothing wrong with a PTR if it means less chance of exploit when a league goes live.
why would anyone be against this, unless they like to abuse exploits.

About the temple thing, exploit or not, people should be playing to set themple run like that one maybe the "legit" way to avoid any sort of trouble if there will be any, just in case though.
Then farm it to keep up, first theres no loot and temple suck, now we have temple is too good theres too much loot so mass ban and fix it, tf guys have some peace.
And a ptr will only ruin the game.
How will a PTR ruin the game?
it will ruin the game for those that like to exploit
for everyone else, it would not.
You do realize that this game is still EA right? not in full released like D4, it makes no sense to create at test realm for a test realm. It's GGG fault for cucking themself with short span of league to develope properly.

Because they are streamers

Back in the early days of GGG, they would invite some Closed Beta testers to the Alpha server to test brand-new content for the first time. Clicking on a portal or casting a spell could crash the server. Now they can hire enough people to test in-house.
Yes, some bugs and exploits make it into patches, but think about all the ones that were fixed before the patch went out. It's not like they're coding things and dumping it out to us before they see if it works.
The solutions are patching and punishment, and encouraging players to submit bug reports.
QA teams are more focused on bugs rather than breaking multiple system interactions. That's something more in line with what a streamer that dedicates their life to the game can do.
This is why there is a lot of value on PTR. The controlled environment of a QA test is good for some things, but not others.

We all know how the economy tanked completely very early this season thanks to Abyss and then Temple exploits. That's terrible for the game since it locks out many players from trading meaningful itens, and it also funnels people towards a single activity, which is also not good for player retention (since that will get boring fast).
To prevent this from happening again, I believe GGG should work with streamers instead of against them to find out those exploits before they go live.
And the way to do it is very simple: a Playtest Realm, maybe with access limited to a some notable PoE2 players, who will certainly proceed to try and break the game as much as possible in that early access period, allowing GGG to correct any such exploits before they go live.
It will also help in other areas, like checking if some skills and items are performing correctly, or identifying unintended interactions between those.
It's a better solution altogether. You avoid the problem before it materializes instead of trying to put a bandaid over a bullet wound.
Diablo 4 does this and it certainly helps over there.
Thoughts?
SSF already exist
