Explain how early access works?

[LVVrunner]

Hello all!

I bought early access here. Steam account is linked to the site. Should something change on the site? Where should the early access key and rewards go?

For now it says there is no access. Maybe they will give it later.

This is understandable. But in general, it would be nice to display the coins and the purchase.

I bought it on the site and it shows the coins and my early access. Is your steam account linked to your GGG account?

Yes, the accounts are linked.

go to the officiall poe site.
log in with your linked steam acc.
go to your acc. management
on the right side under your profile picture there are various stuff related to your acc. management.
click on -> Path of Exile 2 Early Access
a side should open, where you can claim your steam key.
activate the steam key in your steam client and you can add PoE2 to your libary.
your ingame cosmetics and points, will be addet immeadiatly to your PoE acc. and can be accesed in PoE1 and later also in PoE2.
your point wallet is also always shown on the main page of the official PoE Site on the top left, when logged in.

i hope this will help you :)

That's probably true. But my purchase hasn't arrived on the site yet.

that's strange.
i bought the supporter pack ingame because it is cheaper there.
but i paid over steam for it.
i had immediatly access to my purchase and the ea steam-key.

Same here, bought it on Steam, logged onto PoE website, went into the Manage account to check the Early Access, no key and no coins, potentially might have to launch the game for it to recognize? or it's just slightly delayed

could be a posibility.
like i said i bought the supporter pack directly in the ingame shop because there it is cheaper then to buy it in steam directly.
when i bought it i paid with steam though like regulary.
after the purchase in my case the 600 coins and cosmetics were directly added in PoE1 (wich will all carry over to PoE2).
and when i went to the PoE site and logged in with my acc. i got acces to the steam key for the PoE2 ea client.

Ya just launched up the game to see if it'd sync up afterwards, but alas nothing. Perhaps just a general issue with syncing the purchase to the account when purchasing it through Steam itself, instead of from inside the game then. Either way ive put in a refund for it just to make sure then going to purchase it from inside the game after the refund has finalized.

They make you login for some basic info, not worth the 5 seconds.

You pay to find bugs for them, that is, you are paying to be their beta tester. The time has gone when companies paid people to test their games, now people pay to test their games :D
