    GGG letting streamers skip queue is messed up.

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 01:24 PM PDT

    If you disagree please tell me why. They are basically saying they are above everyone else just because they make videos and stream? Am I the only one that thinks this is kind of messed up? Please change my mind if you think so.

    Extremely Slow Queue Processing

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 01:16 PM PDT

    UPDATE/TL;DR: Queue currently fixed. There was an hour of it going super slowly. We will make sure this never happens again.

    ORIGINAL POST: When the Ultimatum league started this morning, it was immediately apparent that the login queue was moving quite slowly. We are investigating this, and so far it appears that the reason is that this league's character migrations (which are a process that runs when a character logs in, to convert it to the new internal version) are much slower than normal.

    Users are getting in and the game is stable once they are through the queue, but it's going to take a while for the queue to clear and we're very sorry about that. We're acutely aware that a similar problem occurred last league launch and we thought we had resolved it.

    Queue processing should speed up as more characters are converted, and we are trying to find other solutions that will help in the meantime.

    Once again, we're very sorry about the delayed start to the league for most users. We will make sure that this never happens again.

    We will update this thread as more information is known!

    EDIT: We have a plan! This may result in people not having past league progress in Standard until we can catch up with that, but should massively speed up the queue for people logging in to Ultimatum (which is 99% of users right now). Will keep you updated.

    EDIT2: Okay, so that plan sped up the queue by a lot. We're keeping an eye on stuff very closely .

    GGG Streamer Priority in Queue

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 01:32 PM PDT

    Hi Guys,

    Let's make one thread to discuss this since we are all a bit peeved by the fact that GGG chose to give streamers priority over regular players as many of us are DCing at log in. I'm personally quite upset at the double standard.

    Edit: Lot's of traction very quickly. I think it's important to note that many non-streamers pay money to support GGG and this game. We all support the things we love in different ways.

    We all love this game and the fact that many players are being DC'd and stuck in a 100K plus queue while streamers are given free reign just feels like a slap in the face is all.

    Edit2: Peiplays brings up a great point. Keep it cordial in everyone's chats boys.

    " I dont blame the streamers - i blame GGG - i get it from a business standpoint it's not a good look to have 100k+ people look at a login screen on a stream (which is about the total viewership of the big streamers that got the skip) at the same time .. It's a slap in the face to the rest of the comunity and will just fuel the fire for the hate train against streamers - dont think most of them wanted to deal with chats filled with angry people "

    Petition: Allow first patch in Ultimatum league to be 3.14.1592654

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 05:09 AM PDT

    [LOOTFILTER] NeverSink's itemfilter - version 8.0.0 - ultimatum update / full filter rewrite!

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 08:30 AM PDT


    [LOOTFILTER] NeverSink's itemfilter - version 8.0.0 - ultimatum update / full filter rewrite!

    IT WILL NOT WORK UNTIL ULTIMATUM IS RELEASED

    This is the 8.0 update, featuring a full, massive rewrite of the filter and all the ultimatum things. Styles are not available and will return over the next weeks.

    I've talked about it in length in already, so I recommend you to check out the changelog. I'll publish a video here soon, talking about the changes!

    Filterblade is now based on AWS - I hope after 5-10 minutes everything will be stable.

    https://filterblade.xyz/ - is of course also updated!

    Want to watch me code/poe, get live updates or support the project?:

    [PATREON] [TWITTER] [DISCORD] [TWITCH] [GITHUB] [FAQ]


    Download

    Source Description
    FilterBlade.xyz (DOWNLOAD) Recommended way of downloading the filter. Has support for all strictness, styles and economy versions! Includes overview, explanations and a loot simulator. Experienced users can also edit filters there comfortably and merge their changes into new versions. Always up-to-date!
    POE site filter list You can subscribe to my POE filter account to receive auto-updates. However, you can't customize these and it has no style support! Come in SC/HC economy versions.
    GitHub Mostly for developers: you can also get the filters from GitHub!

    Changelogs

    The Filter changelogs can always be found here: CHANGELOGS

    The FilterBlade changelogs can be found on the FilterBlade discord: DISCORD


    Filter and Styleversions

    Higher strictnesses filter more items. The general rule is that: the faster you are, the less you want to pick up, because in the time you'd take care of a higher quantity of items, you can kill more monsters and get a higher chance at expensive loot and experience. You can start with Regular/Semi-Strict first (great for new players and leagues) and simply up the strictness from the option menu, once you feel like you want to see less.

    Nr Name Short Description
    0 Soft Shows too much. Includes low crafting bases, magic jewellery in the endgame. Not recommended for regular gameplay.
    1 Regular Shows a lot. Recommended for beginners, new leagues and slow-clearing gameplay. Shows all rares. Good for chaos recipes.
    2 Semi-Strict Healthy balance. Great for new leagues and beginners and medium-speed endgame gameplay. Hides the worst rares. Good for chaos recipes.
    3 Strict Hides bad-base rares and scrolls in the endgame. Disables most recipes. Recommended endgame strictness.
    4 Very Strict Hides most rares, scrolls, augments, armourers. Good for the endgame and for farming once your character is well equipped.
    5 Uber Strict Hides all low currencies and rares. Great for speed-farming, once you have a highly optimized build and atlas! Hides maps of tier 10 and lower.
    6 Uber+ Strict Shows too little. Sterile screen. Hides all kind of stuff, including mediocre divination cards, all kind of crafting material etc. Recommended for high-speed clearing, once your character is top tier geared, your atlas complete and optimized and you're breezing through maps very fast! Hides maps of tier 13 and lower.

    Styles have no effect on how strict the filter is, but change the visual and audio configuration. Find one that pleases your eye most or make your own on https://www.filterblade.xyz . FilterBlade also comes with a preview comparison/feature for styles and strictnesses.


    Special thanks to...

    • /u/Tobnac and Haggis - the 2 others minds behind filterblade + great friends

    • A special thank you to all the Patreons! A special thanks goes to: Ryndaar, Phegan, Matt O.,Henry G., Reilly M!

    Is the queue slow

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 01:07 PM PDT

    I started at place 30115 now after 5 minutes I am at 28910 - so 6 minutes for 1000 - 2000 guys?

    EDIT: X:26 - 23735. so ~ 7000 / 30 min.

    EDIT2: 1 hour in and I am at 5500. I wonder who is faster the queue or that episode from attack on titan.

    Appeal of the Russian-speaking community Path Of Exile to the developers

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 04:59 AM PDT

    Greetings to all. I hope this post will be read by someone from the administration of Path Of Exile. It is far from a secret that the translation into Russian of the game leaves much to be desired. I think many of the Russian-speaking community will agree with me. Many of us would like to play in our native language, but many of us who know at least a little English play in English. There are some reasons for this, which I will describe below:

    1. Translation errors. Using the unique item Giantsbane as an example. On Wiki, the name "Погибель Гигантов", in the game "Гроза Гигантов". Also in the description there is the Iron Grip property. Which in the tree is called the "Железная Хватка", and in the description of the item, the "Твердая рука". Example
    2. Confusing names. Using the new skill Reap as an example. The skill was translated into Russian as Bloody Reap. However, this skill has nothing to do with blood, which may not be obvious to new players who are just starting to play the game.
    3. Cyrillic names. At the moment when the Russian-speaking community was isolated, this change did not interfere with the gameplay in any way, since everyone spoke the same language. However, at the moment, the translated titles only interfere with the gameplay. Many guides, a lot of information about the game in English. Comparing the English original with the Russian translation is a very laborious task. Therefore, in the Russian-speaking community there is a rule - to teach to play the game immediately in English in order to get used to the names. However, many of us would love to play in our native language.

    As you can see - I am leading to the fact that proper names should have the title of the original in the Latin alphabet. Almost all Russian-speaking people have no problems with the perception and reading of Latin alphabet. This would lead to a qualitative change to the game that would make the gameplay easier for newbies. A similar solution can be seen in some online games. For example, in Dota 2, all proper names in the Russian translation are kept in English, and the community of this game has no difficulties with the perception of names and contributes to more productive multilingual interaction. It would be very nice to see this change in the Russian-language localization of the game.

    As for the first problem. I would like to ask people playing in Russian. If you notice such problems - leave feedback in the section "Ошибки перевода" on the official site. Together we can make our game a little better!

    Thanks for attention!

    UPDATE. As I understand it, localization is a global problem for all languages. Almost everyone plays in English. It remains to be hoped that the developers will pay attention to the problems of localization and in the near future we will see global changes in this direction.

    Приветствую всех. Надеюсь данный пост прочтет кто-нибудь из представителей администрации Path Of Exile. Далеко не секрет, что перевод на русский язык игры оставляет желать лучшего. Думаю многие из рускоязычного сообщества будут со мной согласны. Многие из нас хотели бы играть на нашем родном языке, однако многим из нас, кто хотя бы немного знает английский язык, играет на английском. Этому есть несколько причин, которые я опишу ниже:

    1. Ошибки перевода. На примере уникального предмета Giantsbane. На википедии наименование Погибель Гигантов, в игре Гроза Гигантов. Также в описании есть свойство Iron Grip. Которое в дереве называется Железная Хватка, а в описании предмета Твердая рука. Пример
    2. Запутанные наименования. На примере нового умения Reap. На русский язык умение было переведено как Кровавая Жатва. Однако с кровью данное умение не имеет ничего общего, что может оказаться неочевидным для новых игроков, которые только начинают играть в игру.
    3. Кириллические наименования. В тот момент, когда русскоязычное комьюнити было изолировано, данное изменение никак не мешало игровому процессу, так как все говорили на одном языке. Однако в данный момент переведенные названия только мешают игровому процессу. Многие гайды, много информации об игре на английском языке и сопоставить английский оригинал с русским переводом очень трудоемкое занятие. Поэтому в русскоязычном комьюнити есть правило - приучать играть в игру сразу на английском языке, чтобы привыкнуть к названиям. Однако многие из нас очень хотели бы играть на родном языке.

    Как можно заметить - я веду к тому, что имена собственные должны иметь название оригинала на латинице. Практически все рускоязычные люди не имеют проблем с восприятием и чтением латинцы. Это бы привело к качественным изменениям в игре, которые бы упростили игровой процесс для новичков. Подобное решение можно увидеть некоторых онлайн играх. Например в Dota 2 все имена собственные на английском языке в русском переводе и у комьюнити данной игры нет сложностей с восприятием наименований и способствует более продуктивному мультиязычному взаимодействию. Было бы очень приятно увидеть данное изменение в русскоязычной локализации игры.

    Что касается первой проблемы. Я бы хотел попросить людей, играющих на русском. Если вы замечаете подобные проблемы - оставляйте обратную связь в разделе "Ошибки перевода" на оффициальном сайте. Мы вместе можем сделать нашу игру немного лучше!

    Спасибо за внимание!

    ОБНОВЛЕНИЕ. Как я понял локализация - это глобальная проблема всех языков. Практически все играют на английском языке. Остается надеяться, что разработчики обратят внимание на проблемы локализации и в ближайшем будущем нас ждут глобальные изменения в этом направлении.

    Exiles, don't forget to practice lucid dreaming so you can play brain PoB, theorycraft builds and simulate market prices for Ultimatum league

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 06:26 AM PDT

    Just some basic methods to get ahead of everyone else who is "just sleeping" during the league start. Hone your lucid dreaming skills and use those "wasted" hours of sleep for more PoE.

    @pathofexile in Mathil's chat

    Posted: 16 Apr 2021 01:28 PM PDT

    Whoever is running this twitch account decided it would be a great idea to use Mathil's public chat to tell him to rejoin queue so he would get in faster, instead of using any other means of private message.

    Thanks to this not so wonderful person I went from 7k in queue to 99k

    Not too pleased, next time you want to tell someone to rejoin your extremely slow queue system you know you're having issues with because you're testing out some new streamer priority queue system, how about you tell them in private and not jebait potentially thousands of other people in that public chat.
