It's no wonder why the developers hardly post anything in this board and prefer to stick to Reddit.

Imagine having to deal with this gutter trash every time you have to make an announcement?

Anyways, thanks for the headsup, guys!

For goodness sake please re-read the original post. They are not delaying 3.13 to polish it.

To be honest, I think that Cyberpunk is insanely overhyped and even though I hope it's great, I think that delaying PoE for it is a little disappointing. But giving yourselves extra time on 3.14 is a good thing and hopefully has lasting ramifications. I'm really looking forward to the short league in between! :D Maybe Battle Royale mode for a week? :o

We do not want to put our players in a position of having to choose between these two games

Yeah, because every single PoE player is just oozing at the mouth for CyberPunk's release! Because it's a direct competitor, and even in the same genre!

A lot of players play multiple genres, I would say the majority do. I and many people in my POE Guild pre-purchased CyberPunk as well as many people I know. So yes, I think it will have a pretty sizeable impact on POE at their launch. Not to mention it is one of the most hyped games to come out in a pretty good while, that is not part of an existing franchise. People love fresh games and ideas.

Hyped as much as anthem, how'd that work out?

Thanks for the heads up GGG. Time to practice SSF HC to 100 while you dev test the patch some more too!

Please use some of the bonus time gained that way to fix these issues, GGG:

Hoooola
OH that s terrible news .

Confined again , xmas dread and shopping from a distance . More bad news ?
Gas reaching the 2 EUros for the first time in history ? no ? uuuuf

THis feels bad , though i dont think that GGG owes the player anything.

And the case /multiple promises of cyberpunk is quite the good example. They delay their shit as they will , even though plenty players already payed for it . That i call robbery .

Now POE is still free. And yes players are still free beta testers. Is there a problem there ?

Moreover the communication is still excellent. We are informed of delays more than a month before the said delay . I wish they did that in airports too.

If as a player you think you re owed anything , please file a complaint to blizzard or any other game you paid for .

We aint amongst customers here , we're free players with a free golden hen that keeps most of us entertained for almost a decade. So cheer up.

Thanks GGG

And WOW expansion also.

I do want to play Cyberpunk, and flashback is nice, so its good for me.
But I know many other players are not into Cyberpunk at all. I guess there are less than 50% players are like me, who play other genres.
So I do want a poll, to best serve the majority of the community.

"During the month of delay before release, we will start work on the 3.14 expansion."

I'd hope this additional time would be spent by a LOT of your staff on bug identification and resolution instead, so we can avoid the clusterfrak the last Launch enjoyed.

Best of Luck!
