bestgirlchie534: As a person who a) has a job and b) lives on the other side of the world, i could not give a shit about world first races that start at midnight

seanheisey8645: A couple new classes or acts 4, 5, and 6 would be awesome!

sharkguy666: Wow event only for people without jobs! Very cool

ja4414: Pretty stupid event when 99% of the pop have zero chance of winning.

kandrotas22: I mean it’s cool for like the 6 people who will get it. Would have been more hype if they gave everyone that finished a run in that 24 hour period a non-golden version of the helmet.

StrikerTVFang: So sorry I'm late, it took me 1 minute to get here. I'm disappointed in myself and my performance today. But thank you for the video.

JBengaIII: I feel baited with this title not really a Major update. Just a release date and a race 90% of player base won’t care or have a chance with

Nownadda: So glad that they created a “race” event with rewards for streamers.

kylemassie8067: So a new events for streamers and the top % while the rest of us get to watch I guess.

JayM928: GGG: we slowed things down and made the game more tactical and challenging

Also GGG: RACE!!

TheEdMonix: So an event to give out only six total helmets? Waste of time.

chock2123: So basically. An event for the sweats, not for people with life

GnostlyHero: Disappointing announcement. I will not be participating, playing, or watching this at all. I'll come back in a few months to check if there are any updates for actual players to try out.

medashen09: This current mapping is something similar to my job irl.

ragnakh: This is pretty stupid.. 99.9% of people don't even get anything even if they try.

stevel2064: I really…really don’t want to have to play acts 1-3 twice in a row.

shaunb8294: There's not a snowball's chance in hell that this game will exit early access in the originally stated timeline. It's just very clear that they grossly overestimated their ability to keep the updates coming on the cadence they'd been talking about in the weeks leading to the EA release.I'm not particularly troubled by this. I'm confident it will get done barring some unforeseen catastrophe. I just don't see them keeping up with their own ambitions.

feelingthislife: Feels like it's not speculation that it's going to be longer. This will make it 4 months before a major change. The rest of the game will come in 8 months? Even 12 more? Color me skeptical

therandom1627: what the fu is this event lmao, id say filler event but not even. Grind for items that will be utterly worthless a couple weeks later? Its hilarious that ggg is just like yo guys, to hold you over, GRIND the campaign for the 5th time just to lose to a streamer and get nothing! Poggers!

Randomonium66: GGG, hear me out: all 6 portals could be used as extra attemps in maps, literally zero downside, everyone wins.

juiblex4319: Hope they update the poe2 atlas to show "map completed" instead of "map in progress" on the atlas so we can see our progress updated if we get a "map completed"

agitomo4686: i just CANT understand how can you work for a gaming company just to deside "yeah we have like millions of people who enjoy our game, time to make some content for the 6 jobless poeple out there ..just do like first 5000 or someting man this is Blizzard type shit

shane_c: So only 1 player from each class get a reward for speed running the game? That's lame.

bananabanana8831: really getting the feeling that GGG are only interested in catering to the top 1%

knee-chan6970: massive race event for the unemployed

DarriusFreeborn: So, POE 2 trying to be more appeal to the casual auditory by making a lots of things simple, and at the same time doing event only for the hardcore-no-life speedrunners with only 6 rewards...

What about other players? That's bullshit and literally middle finger to the 90% players.

CinemaSteve: what a nothingburger announcement from the devs who were front and center trying be over communicate before release. now they're doing nothing and saying nothing. back to the old GGG.
