That’s exactly the reason of why I don’t think this is “unexpected”, again, after being able to play the beta without problems. Then, there were no betas and any system could give you many incompatibility issues, now everything is more standarized and except for different O.S. (PC, Mac, Consoles, etc…) everything should be working… and oh what a coincidence that this AVX thing, one of the few things that can differentiate old and new Pcs pops up here.

That’s true, you don’t really get an AVX error message , who knows… what I don’t understand is why if this last patch was for AVX, why now the game launches but crashes. Is AVX an actual issue? what ever is happening, is preventing thousands of players to play and tbh, as an ectrician I can not go home after doing an electrical installation that does not work and tell my customer, well, don’t you have BBQ and candles? see you on monday! have a nice weekend!

It wasnt for AVX. The patch notes say they have to run more tests on it. And earliest will probably be monday. Unless they get a fix before. It also states they are working on it over the weekend.
Edit: Im just as mad I cant play. but also Ladder hasnt started! its okay!

ahaha lol, that’s the point, you, as a billionary company that really wants to fix the problem, you pay your employees, who are responsible, for working overtime and fixing the problem, if you say goodbye until Monday it is because it is not a problem as such and perhaps, is a solution for a bigger problem.

or maybe, with all the Problems Blizzard is facing right now, people are leaving the company, now they don’t have enough resources & Talented Devs to deal with this kind of issue. So they hire some new devs/freelancers who doe not bring what it takes to work as a Dev for a company like BLizzard

They would first enter a command line option to disable this AVX … and any user can try this.

I hope they sleep well
at least they should add a notification in the launcher about this issue, couse there are a lot of ppl who do not read forums or twitter msg etc.

Hi Osprey,
I had exactly same thoughts. This were logical in this situation.
Bad perspectives for us.
Greetings from Germany where the game forum is nearly exploding…
Do you really think they give a s*** about any of us here or any other person who can’t play? Let’s be real
