A month ago, the release of Path of Exile Ultimatum made the players who had been looking forward to it so enthusiastic. But the problem was that the Path of Exile server at the time could not withstand the pressure of so many players logging in at the same time. Many people are stuck in the login queue and can only wait patiently. At that time, the developer quietly allowed the streamers to bypass the login queue and directly enter the game, which made those players who hold a lot of POE Currency feel very uncomfortable.

Because the development team insisted on thoroughly testing the server before Ultimatum went live. Grinding Gear Games apologizes for this considerable false act. As we all know, the game team has been committed to creating a proper environment of fair competition, so that action will hurt the hearts of so many players. The head of the studio, Chris Wilson, admitted in a frank and reflective explanation that the studio’s release was rough and tried to explain some of the issues that plagued the release, queue time and server stability.

After detailing the technical issues that catastrophically disrupted the release date after a lot of stress testing, Wilson then explained that because of human error, it gave streamers priority in the login queue. It is better to offend all players who desire to enter the game but are powerless and have to watch other people enjoy this freedom. Many players are dissatisfied with this, which is completely understandable. The developers will make sure that the queue works better so that it is a fast process for everyone.

Wilson also solemnly stated to the players that the development of POE 2 is also underway. He does not want to attribute the delay of the POE 2 Beta version to COVID-19. But because of New Zealand’s policy of closing the border, it is difficult for them to recruit better technicians to speed up the development of POE 2. Once they can ensure the normal expansion of each quarter, they will release POE 2 as soon as possible. Players are also best to buy some POE Chaos Orb in advance to meet various new challenges that may arise.
