    It's a good time. I've not actually died yet (which is a good thing I suppose, as I'd be kicked to the other league if I did), but the first act boss got me close.

    That said, fuck the apes in act 2. Fuck them in their eyes.

    Yeah, so far I've never died, but I've only played solo so far, I'm guessing it ramps up with more players and when you get farther into the game.

    The patch notes for the next version (0.9.3) sound incredible.

    New passive skill tree, more class variety and generally just some pretty fundamental game changes to try and make it all a bit more fun.

    No word on selling to NPCs yet. I'm super interested with how that will work (as if you start handing out currency items in exchange for all the shite you could pick up from clearing one area, then they would become worthless)

    Hi guys!

    This is just a quick note on the progress of the 0.9.3 patch. Things are going great - at this stage we expect it to be up on the Alpha realm before the end of the workweek. Once on the Alpha realm, it'll be around one week of testing before it's deployed to the Beta realm. We can't commit to exact dates yet because it's crucial for us to get this major patch right. Hurrying last minute changes will be much worse than waiting a few extra days.

    We can go into a little more detail about a few pieces of extra content in 0.9.3 (other than the huge amount of rebalancing mentioned in the recent dev diary).

    So far, there are two extra world areas in early Act One (both are side areas). These will be made a little more challenging than normal areas to provide optional harder content for new players.

    We have seven new active skills currently working, and will enable more as they become available (even if that's a few days after the patch is deployed). Included in this set of skills are ones code-named "Heavy Strike", "Conversion Strike", "Fire Storm", "Immortal Call" and a few currently secret ones.

    We currently have nine new support gems scheduled for the first release of 0.9.3. Three of these affect your minion skills!

    I'll post more updates as we get closer to deploying (including hopefully some screenshot/video previews of new skills). Thanks for being so patient!

    Edit: Just as a reminder - we will scale up the size of the beta once this patch is released.

    This was posted yesterday, so another two weeks or so and we'll see a major rebalancing of the game and the beta invites should start to arrive more frequently. Perhaps we'll even see some of the fabled friend invites.

    I got my beta invite today, I'll post impressions later. Did anyone else receive theirs as part of the new wave of people?

    No friend keys yet, unfortunately.

    That's a shame, finding motivation to play when 9.3 is just round the corner and will a) wipe characters and b) change more or less everything is tricky.

    9.3 is now being slated for a release on the 14th. This should dramatically increase the rate at which beta keys are handed out (although I'm not sure what happens when you dramatically increase a trickle).

    We'd like to invite you to help test this patch and to play alongside us on this fresh Beta realm. As part of this phase of the Closed Beta, we'll be scaling up the number of players significantly. We will be giving out 10,000 friend invite codes to existing testers over the next two weeks. You will receive at least one

    Woo.

    Sooo... all I can see when I see this thread is "Tit and diablo".

    Can't say I knows what the game is about, but I bet it's not about hell tits. Poor advertising!

    Installing etc now, will probably play and stream it later for anyone that is interested (I'll post in here again when I'm streaming)

    Yeah, it was a "0.9.3 is out" email that mentioned everybody getting at least one friend code in the next two weeks.

    One of the devs is merrily chatting away in the public chat right now. It's quite interesting.

    Edit: He accidentally sent that 0.9.3 email to people outside the beta, so he just gave them access anyway.

    If anyone gets a friend invite code that will be unused, I'd be happy to take it off your hands :winky:

    Got a beta invite today for this. I'm enjoying it so far, but the passive skill tree is a bit overwhelming.

    Right now I'm trying to do a 2H Sword Duelist.

    Likewise.

    I occasionally pass time by visiting the POE website and entertain myself by not seeing my name come up on the random generator.

    To get the torture going: I wanted a DOTA 2 invite, but instead after a full 4 month they finally decided it was my turn to get an invite for this game.

    Just read about this, love me some Diablo/Titan Quest style games. Random levels? Sweet. Interesting skill system? Even sweeter. So hopefully they send me a beta invite so I can get in on this.

    the skill system is cool but in the beta its fairly limited atm because they dont have that many active skills yet

    they plan to have over 100 active skills before they go to open beta tho

    They also don't have a lot of the cooler support gems they've mentioned on the website yet. I'm really looking forward to a few of them, like the one that triggers on hit.

    The gem system is really cool. Before the wipe I had a Frost Nova with a support gem that gave Frost Nova a healthy chunk of magic find.

    I really like their "last man standing" take on a ladder. Pretty cool.

    One important question that I hope isn't polarizing; is there a teleport skill?

    I believe there's a couple skills that teleport you as part of the attack. I don't believe there's a skill that does nothing but teleport you.
