Path of Exile Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • catilio_adc Papa Kush (@catilio_adc) reported

    @pathofexile Going to the next area is a coin toss. You may enter, or it may kick you out, prevent for login multiple times and then put you in a 12k queue. What a launch.

  • Di3Order Di3Order (@Di3Order) reported

    @pathofexile Check your authorization server. Constantly throws out at the end of the session. The error could be in timing. Although maybe they all already have sweet dreams and are not soared.

  • aesthemic Aesthemic (@aesthemic) reported

    With Path of Exile seemingly out of reach for now until they fix ****, I need to find a new game to play to pass the time, cause nothing else sounds like fun.

  • Blakwhysper Nathan (@Blakwhysper) reported

    @MissKhaosTV @hudsonbarrena_ @pathofexile It’s almost like this is their 1st league and we should really cut them some slack. In the future if they have consistently bad league starts and make bad customer service decisions then we can hold them accountable. For now let’s just give this new indie company some slack

  • ZenceTV Zence (@ZenceTV) reported

    @pathofexile It's okay, unfortunately these issues can happen unexpectedly on large releases. I can say the league mechanic seems to be fantastic and am truly looking forward to diving in once things are stable. All the kids throwing tantrums need to grow up.

  • NeroDMC16 NeroDMC (@NeroDMC16) reported

    @Dubisek97 @Redblade5 @pathofexile if your game is competitive you should care about that kind of stuff, price or no price... beside there is money involved for some ppl that rank in ladders (including sponsoring) so its not a minor problem when the company is giving some ppl advantage

  • count_zero99uk Brian Moran (@count_zero99uk) reported

    @pathofexile Streamer priority login is not a good thing.

  • Tehed TehK (@Tehed) reported

    @Starbird_Tweets @pathofexile But... streamers are disconnecting just like everyone else. The queue being slow was only a problem for an hour. Also: that doesn't give anyone the right to abuse and insult. (I actually think that was a good idea)

  • KazutoK41502949 TheBaconPirate (@KazutoK41502949) reported

    @pathofexile My Intuitive Leap that dropped and got yoinked by a DC/rollback dislikes this tweet, but on a serious note we know you are working your asses off to fix the issues and appreciate all the updates!

  • SouSuzumi Sou Suzumi (@SouSuzumi) reported

    @StarVelvetta @NeroDMC16 @pathofexile Yeah, I mean, it's a very recent game and they're just a small studio with 5 people in a basement, there's no way they could know the servers would be loaded at league start, or know how to do proper testing for any server issues before the league,

  • StarVelvetta Velvetta Star (@StarVelvetta) reported

    @SouSuzumi @NeroDMC16 @pathofexile they did numerous tests prior to launch the results did not present the issue we have this is out of the blue if you know how to use pre-cognition you should probably hit up GGG to tell them how for next time so they can find invisible random bullshit that comes out of nowhere

  • GJs_Silly_Home GJ (@GJs_Silly_Home) reported

    @pathofexile Delete the streamer priority queue from existence. Apologize for making that a thing in the first place. Shut down the servers until you fix them. The developers and server runners are going through hell right now, so I'll keep my cool. You did have to deal with a troll earlier.

  • NeroDMC16 NeroDMC (@NeroDMC16) reported

    @StarVelvetta @SouSuzumi @pathofexile i cut it all the slack for having technical issues, giving some ppl unfair advantage is a completely different thing... (wich is the thing i have problem with, not the actual technical problems)

  • lou_sadhours Lou (@lou_sadhours) reported

    @khanoneonenine @DEEF4556 @pathofexile Most server/service type TOS guarantee a certain up time, generally well into the 99%, so I think the 9 hours of issues so far isn't going to really break the 99% uptime.

  • RagingJackal Jackal (@RagingJackal) reported

    @pathofexile This might be useless but @OasisNomad had a wild server issue bout a year ago and they released a whole devblog outlining it, maybe there's a helpful tip in there somewhere? Good luck gents.

  • BillWrass BillWrass (@BillWrass) reported

    @pathofexile It's pretty sad GGG admits there's an issue and they know they've given streamers a huge advantage with the no queue logins. Everyone who isn't a streamer falls that much more behind. Yet they won't take the servers down because of the free publicity they get from streamers. SAD!

  • Davengeful DavePlain, Ho (@Davengeful) reported

    @CrazyMadCoder @pathofexile @Blizzard_Ent WoW had the same issues up until relatively recent. I'm not saying they're some indie company, but comparatively to Blizz, yeah. I get it. Especially in a game like this where there is SO much bloat. Maybe it'll get their heads out of the sand and optimize better.

  • gahtoe Jacob Schroeder 🚀 (@gahtoe) reported

    @pathofexile Truest RIP is sitting through 10k queue, getting to login screen, instantly getting kicked back to 14k queue.

  • seikatsu2601 seikatsu26 (@seikatsu2601) reported

    @Kaios40168245 @pathofexile Fix it first i mean

  • cesmode84 Cesmode (@cesmode84) reported

    @pathofexile Launch issues happen. Still more upset about streamer priority. You need to get in front of that as well and fast.

  • Redblade5 Redblade (@Redblade5) reported

    @Dubisek97 @pathofexile No it should have been addressed hours ago when they realized these issues would carry on for a fair bit.

  • RyneaMR Miriam Elena Reiter (@RyneaMR) reported

    @pathofexile It's now 9 hours after league started and we still have the very same issues. Not only that but other than an external platform like social media, GGG is still unable to provide a proper update via their own sources, be it forums, news or other. Very disappointing.

  • aTinyFoxPaw Kebin 🦊🐾 (@aTinyFoxPaw) reported

    @EliseoGotay @hopelessjass @pathofexile Dude shut the f up you entitled Doughnut, the world is not a fair place deal with it. I have been playing inbetween disconnects does it suck? yes do I give a **** if ppl get in befor me? NO Sit down, and stop being a little ***** and wait for them to fix stuff

  • Tswj7 Tswj (@Tswj7) reported

    @pathofexile This would have never happened if GGG had Asian parents. “WHY YOU EMBARRASS ME!?” “FIX NOW! ARE YOU NOT DOCTOR!?”

  • XiaoTan84335293 XiaoTang (@XiaoTan84335293) reported

    @pathofexile Hello, I'm new in study English, the biggest problem for me is that I'm not able to distinguish "F" and "L", GGG could you pls help me? good luck?

  • heliopk Hélio Kadooka (@heliopk) reported

    @pathofexile i remember the time when the community was really supportive with these situations, good times, its ggg guys, you can be sure that they are doing 1000% to fix this...relax

  • CorwinLoa Corwin Loa (@CorwinLoa) reported

    @pathofexile I don't know why so many people are giving you a hard time about all the server issues, you guys have only had 30 leagues to practice on before to get this one right. Can't expect a company that's been doing the same thing for 8 yrs to have all the kinks worked out!

  • Mino942112 Armen Levon (@Mino942112) reported

    @pathofexile @pathofexile I've noticed where is the problem coming from. When we are loading a new zone and X phenomena is happening it is causing many users to get disconnected because X "phenomena" is causing a load on the server. I can expand further on this if you guys offer me an intern!

  • FatalisReigns Ratha (@FatalisReigns) reported

    Imagine spending all this money on marketing the new league for Path of Exile just have your servers crash every 20 minutes because they cant handle the influx of new players who are probably never going to touch the game again after this lol

  • StarVelvetta Velvetta Star (@StarVelvetta) reported

    @NeroDMC16 @SouSuzumi @pathofexile ive played the game since beta ive seen every poor performance the game has to offer if you really love the game that much you'd cut it some slack for having devastating server issues at the worst possible time if you hate whats happening just leave, it really is that easy
