I would lower my expectations from devs that dont even understand what's the issue with removing the PVP warning sound.Īnd they stealthily removed the offered TCP/IP option, making it already impossible for 99% of mods created for the game to play online, as only about 4 have their own realms set up. Instead, I checked some vids and so far they are ruining PvP by changing unnecessary shit. The game has potential for so much more and that is building on the basic d2. I wonder how many poor schmucks think that Blizz is doing something amazing fixing a broken game, when even some teenager 15 years ago could code you better muling, and these idiots still didnt thought of fixing charms and inventory space. I even remember some Blizz comment about D2 being a dying game and statistics of online players showing it (Gee, I wonder why), what an horrible company. I didnt play the beta as I have zero intention of breaking my 15+ year long streak of not giving money to Blizz, but I did check some threads around and I didnt see any complaints of the kind for the online (correct me, if Im wrong, but I highly doubt it). Obviously all intentional, ruining old experience before offering a new one. There were also small bans for making fast games, making it impossible to do runs type of games (bots circumvent this by making multiple location runs, players doing optimal leveling runs got fucked).

Their excuse was that they implemented a new anti-cheat system to stop bots (it didnt) yet it hit everyone, quite curious (and no, they wouldnt so much as reimburse anyone for their new purchase of the game). This would happen to old and new accounts be they from recent purchases or some old discs. The way they worked was that you TRIED to go online and got 2 week ban, after the ban was done it would refresh when you went online again.

I knew D2R was coming quite a bit before its announcement because for at least 2 years b.net had been giving these mysterious 2 week bans to everyone.
