[Xbox One] Checking in regarding Content Update 3.2.0
" ^--- This. Every movement of the stick in PoE = "three steps by the character on screen." It's annoying and deadly, especially since character placement is critical in PoE, moreso than even in D3. I got over it, but it's still very annoying, especially when running the Labyrinth. |

I agree that D3 controls are superior, it feels smooth on Xbox.
I personally find POE the superior game overall, but the comparisons to D3 are fair in most regards. D3 ROS is not trash, it's just not D2 which is what most of us wanted. POE is much closer but taken to the next level. If you want to kill a bunch of monsters with a good combat engine, D3 is pretty good. I never understood why anyone feels they have to pick one or the other. Overall, the delay between platforms isn't what really bothers me anyways, it's the difference in treatment; communication, hype, announcements, and game features. I firmly believe at this point they are purposely doing it to distance themselves a bit after the backlash they got from PC crowd. Tin foil hat? Maybe. I don't know how else to explain it. The "it's our first console" can be used for the delay, and technically the gap in features, but communication/hype/announcements, that's somebody deciding to do a bad job. CM's are the same on both platforms right? |

This is the exact thing that happened at 3.1 launch, then unlike now they had a holiday to explain lack of content and fixes on xbox. They also promised better communication. The lack of communication is right back to square one. Really sad we are here again, and GGG needs to start being honest with its consumers, if this is what we will always get, lets us know so we can make an informed desicion as to whether to wait out the storm, or move on.

Well I for one, as a clear noob, am taking a different POV on the delay; I will more than enjoy more days with the Abyss League!! As my first league, plus a late start in the league, I'm still collecting good gems and still searching for the "perfect" Stygian Vise.
Imo it's not up to us, this game is GGG's baby and regardless of the situation I can't fault anyone who wants to take more time in every way to make something better; better for us = better for them. ...this escalated quickly.

Thank you for the update! Why is everyone complaining though? The game is technically free.

Hello everyone,
I know many of you are eagerly awaiting more information regarding the release of patch 3.2.0 on Xbox One, so I wanted to take a moment to post an update on the current status. The team has been hard at work resolving issues for the Xbox One version, and we're very close to submitting a build to Microsoft for certification. Assuming no issues are found in certification we expect a fairly quick turnaround time to release the build onto the live realm - a few days at most. As soon as we've received a response regarding certification we will share a release date and time immediately. As for the patch contents, the build contains all hotfixes up to and including hotfix 8 on the PC version. For more information on those changes, please see the PC patch notes section here. | |
Thanks Jeff!
