you're telling us to read between the lines? can you read at all? they wont be working on 3.13 at all past the planned original release date. they're going to work on 3.14... so what makes you even think 3.13 wont be a dumpster fire like heist?[/quote]


I've played PoE for many years and there are always bugs in league launchers but none to to scale of Heist where 80% of the league simply did not work.

Its a smart PR move to not go up against cyberpunk sure but at least they give themselves some kind of breathing room because if the league ends up being like Heist then there is no excuse player base will drop

Kinda sad to read for someone like me who doesn't give a **** about Cyberpunk. Oh well, Flashback event should be nice at least.

Same here.

I'm not sure this is good for their economy either given the timings and how people play during this period.
GGG even said themselves that flashback etc hurts the next league because people getting burnt off PoE(no numbers given as example afaik, i think its more due to they don't want to spend resources and possible mtx rewards instead).
If the next league is bad, stacked with a lot of players already tired of PoE, then the next league will be a cemetery and their income shrink a lot for that quarter.

If they release in december the playerbase would probably be lower early on, but increase or be steady over the next weeks rather than having a 50% drop after 3 weeks.
When people are done with Cyberpunk they'd be hungry on Poe, especially if its a good, polished league which also is interesting. I'd imagine this would make people more interested in buying a lot of mtx and packs during christmas, compared to as if playing a flashback where you'd probably be given mtx rewards instead. A lot of people probably also have spent their points from earlier pack and will wait until next league to buy more, which they won't if a january league is really bad.

We do not want to put our players in a position of having to choose between these two games, so we have decided to step out of the way and delay the release of Path of Exile 3.13 until January.

This is intriguing and as many players already pointed out, the assumption is that 100% of players are blinded and not going to play POE while affected by the Cyberpunk aura.

In any case, you will likely to lose more players if such kind of decisions with weak justifications are made in the future.

there no point for it to change ur timeline for something like that we don't even care about ....

Flash is back!!!

Have you considered running a poll to see how many of the community are interested inplaying Cyberpunk?

Harvest 2.0 PLEASE

tell me how smart is this PR move when MAJORITY of the player base are against this? how is it smart if and when cyber punk delays yet again? is chris going to push back the league to feb? because this is not smart at all especially when they dont plan to test 3.13 or work on it any further.

GGG still hasn't learnt the lesson from heist.. if they did they would have taken the extra time to polish 3.13 during this extremely poor decision to delay the league
