4/10/'25 hotfix - Thanks for a breadcrumb of attention to the game

Thanks for dusting the keyboard off and giving little old non-lucrative D2:R some attention. Hope that it doesn’t stop there.

Just a throwback to something Robert Gallerani said:

“We’re done with D2, it’s all cracked! We balanced it all! That would actually be a very sad day.”

Then shortly afterwards, he left Blizzard.

Is there anything that Blizzard seems to hate more than an employee who cares about their projects?

Jedi, you re Crazy dude

“Developer’s Note:”

Wait, there is still some devs on D2r ? Jezz

Only took ‘em like, 2 years since people discovered it. :laughing: Now how about a “hotfix” for Decoy? :grinning:

Thanks for ruining the game for me Blizz. Instead of fixing and upgrading their crappy servers, of fixing mosaic crashing people’s games, of fixing the blinding mosaic effects, of fixing the stashes size, of adding a loot filter, of giving us new runewords, Blizzard decided that the infinite gold exploit was crashing their servers. I’m tired of Blizzard and their BS, I’m slowly losing faith and interest in D2R.

So what about the christmas day bonus when vendor prices were markedly reduced? Are they getting rid of this day for future events?

A hot fix!? Hold on……
When did we become worthy of a hot fix!?

That was really sad to watch again. The guy loved diablo 2, and him leaving blizzard was a massive loss for the d2 community.

I’ve been a d2r fan for long enough to know better, but I’d be lying if I said this didn’t give me just a shred of optimism.

This is the case with every single ARPG and MMO. Doesn’t change your gameplay either way.

All of the broken, annoying, exploited things in this game, and they chose to patch a tedious gold grinding trick. Insane priorities, really. It’s no wonder a weirdo like the OP is celebrating. Meanwhile the entire public games list is populated with RMT website names.

is this a fix for “grinding” suffix? ok, i guess… it’s so stupidly tedious i don’t know why would anyone bother tbh. I would love to hear how it caused instability. Maybe people were spawning huge gold piles with it or smth?

just checked, the fix is not selling it for correct price… it just says “i cannot complete this request” when trying to sell it.

Also was there a client update? or is this just a back end fix?

run a script and the town floor will be covered in gold in no time.

I think someone on this forum claimed people were crashing games using this bug. Looks like it might be true if they were willing to hot fix it randomly.

They should have banned the people running scripts instead TBH. That is basically the same as botting, since they use 3rd party tools. Especially if it was used to crash people’s game/servers. Making it so you cannot sell the item when equipped is not really a “fix” either way lol

Yeah and because of that babbling idiot the poor players like me are now out of luck… the infamous:
O IST N 10mil were so scarsely rare, and holding that amount just for this offer was problematic enaugh, and now wven this is gone…

the only thing left now is to grind classic for pgems and convert the mules…

I don’t belive every other chineese player was running a script to abuse this feature…
and yet some babbling idiot started tearing his clothes apart for blizz to fix the literally only source of income for the poor player…

how the hell am i to make a goldfind barb, LEMs don’t just drop out of the sky it’s damn near impossible to make one for a person who plays like 1 evening per week

All it takes is one person to publicly announce they are actively using said exploit, posting the items for sale, entering someone’s market space and wallah, hotfix. If you think this fixed the servers instability, you’re wrong - still connection errors. Bro fixed this to get everyone out of his market.
Btw, it’s server side packet block, there’s a work around.

it wasn’t HIS market space to begin with…

at least fix mosaic now

If you would seriously spend your time and dedication with grinding instead of letting your cursor do the work and trying to get a mal for it, you probs would have found items that are worth the runes you need.

AND, you actually could enjoy this game. “Mindblowing!!!”
