Well, at least the joining games with multiple people and xxx#1234 answering to you and you are standing there like: "Who?" is now gone.

And with

Protector's Stone one could realistically expect a fix to ED/MinMax bug too.

Ever since this update I can no longer play it.
I play via steam and I've been trying various methods to fix it but so far nothing has helped.

Wait wait wait wait wait...
They actually fixed some bugs?!

This is an april fools thing, right?

Edit post-login:
Well, they didn't update the client version number..god forbid that ever be accurate. ^^ Still 3.0.whatever
But I do actually see my char name in chat when typing. Crazy!
Sadly, the visual stuff doesn't include the HDR tooltip/opacity so still gotta keep suffering through that abysmal large font mode as a pseudo-workaround... :/

If you play on steam and can no longer run the game, follow these steps:

1. navigate to the steam folder for d2r under `steam/steamapps/common`
2. open `.build.info` in notepad
3. replace its contents with this:

4. save the file, launch game, it should work.

If you're refering to the [details removed by mod as fix doesn't seem confirmed yet] exploit, there are reports from players it has been hotfixed.

That’s exactly what I would say if it was working.

Like any math class, show your work.

Then go try it out for yourself and report back your findings. I said players were reporting it was hotfixed, i never claimed i tried it myself.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Can we talk about how this was a 24.9 GB update with only a few fixes?

I'm not a game dev so correct me if I'm wrong but I'd imagine that going in and fixes some lines of code wouldn't be uh... 24.9 GB right?

I'm still very new with everything so please be patient

According to MrLlamaSC: "They pointed the build at internal servers instead of at public servers."

Do you normally get so defensive when others simply ask if what you’re saying has validity behind it?

I’m assuming you can’t point me in the direction of those player reports?
