I have played nonstop all weekend without issue and now after their maintenance i’m getting the character is already in a game issue.

At least prior to this the majority were able to play, now it seems worse.

[#D2R] Live Maintenance has concluded. We’re aware that some characters remain stuck in closed games. We are working to return those characters to a playable state as soon as possible.

Why did the game work fine for the majority prior to this maintenance?

Ive played fine when ive wanted too last few days, lvl 78 Sorc, MFing hell… blizzard “forced” a maint on me without any notice, my chat hasnt worked the entire time so i dont know if that matters and now because of the maint im locked out…

You weren’t the majority. The people for whom the game was/is broken are the majority.

I have around 30 WoW guild mates who have played this weekend and none of them have had this issue until the maintenance today. Just because the minority affected prior to this are loud about it does not make them the majority.

Same here, played all day … now since maintenance im locked out =/

They wouldn’t be doing maintenance on a weekend if the game was broken for a minority of the playerbase.
You and your mates are the minority.

Same for me :frowning: , was working good all day, now cant create games. Even with new chars.

you misread his post.

They have paused the fix that will unlock the characters.

They didn’t stop it to unlock those characters.

So you’re telling me that 51% or more of the playerbase has been unable to play? 30 people that I know who have been playing prior to this maintenance are just “lucky”? I don’t think you know what the definition of majority is.

14

So you know the exact number of people who play this game, so that you can state without doubt that a majority are unaffected?
Why don’t you educate everyone as to what the numbers are then?

You and 30 people aren’t even a drop in the bucket of the whole playerbase. They aren’t even a majority compared to all of the people who have posted on this forum that they can’t play.

The same thing can be said for your statement.

So you know the exact number of people who play this game, so that you can state without doubt that a majority are affected? Why don’t you educated everyone as to what the numbers are then?

The difference is statistics, what are the chances that 30 people are able to play fine if what you’re saying is true and 51% or more of the playerbase have been unable to play prior to this maintenance? It’s an extremely low chance.

1700 posts to your 30.

4000 posts and counting - again to your 30.

Do you need help extrapolating this data?

Look at JSP and other trade sites, they’ve had 10s of thousands of active unique players trading on there, currently there is 2,800 alone browsing the softcore trade forum then if you add in hardcore etc.

You’re also using a thread that has jumped up by nearly 2k since the maintenance caused these issues to be worse.

Do you need help extrapolating this data? I definitely do because there’s so many people who have actively been playing. I’m sorry you’re upset.

Funny, you cherry pick and choose D2JSP. There are posts from people saying they too are locked out. Browsing =/= actually trading.

The only one upset here is you.

Where are you getting 51% from bruh
