Lobby changes, meanwhile i quit

You guys have to improve lobby games as soon as possible. its just mediocre as the way it is.
There is no games at all. Basically it shows me 15 rooms. and i doubt there is only all hell. Nightmare and Normal games are even worse. Not even to mention depending on the time of the day. there are no rooms at all depending on dificulty.
The lobby doesnt show all the rooms and it should be. it just should like 1%? it its just horrible. i feel like im playing with 20 players and thats all. I dont see any duel rooms. no baal rooms. a few trades. There is no rooms at all. just the same one over and over again. The refresh button doesnt work from the release of the game. THE LOBBY NEED ATENTION REALLY QUICK. For real. Its just crap. The game not even 3 months out and there is NO PUBLIC ROOMS, becouse the game ITSELF doesnt show all the rooms for us. IMPROVE THE LOBBY!!! ASAP.

PTR is coming up, likely after the holidays. Hopefully the lobby gets some much needed attention soonTM.

If you quit, do you have any valuable items to give me? You don’t seem to need anything now that you quit.

yea i feel your pain. i don’t know how it is in other regions, but here in OCE there are very few players in classic (non expansion). i literally see 0 games. IDK if its the same in all regions but if not i would like a button to see other regions to at least be able to trade. I’m basically playing offline because there is no local community.
(by other regions i mean other servers within the individual regions. I have a feeling it only shows games from local servers and not international ones)

I downloaded Project Diablo 2 out of curiosity to see how the original game list functioned and:

  • There are more games in normal than my D2R game list (I saw 46)
  • They have a search filter which is extremely convenient
  • More new games pop up on the top of my list with every refresh

I hope Blizzard is aware that this game (multiplayer) isn’t living up to its full potential because of the lobby.

We should be able to see games from all regions and have options to filter by ping.

they show only the games near you i guess. or just a few that might “interest” to you at the time. they dont show even 5% of the games that exist. there is no way that is only 15-20 rooms in hell, 5 in nightmare and 10 in normal games.

i have a character on NA classic server and I dont see any games in the lobby when I play either.

The flashing light show of free advertising triggers my migraines. I’d imagine it’s a threat to epileptics as well. I’ve resorted to using a folder next to my monitor, physically covering the screen while I’m looking for games to join.

For most people, Blizz’ surrendering the lobby to bad actors is an annoyance. For some of us, it’s a health issue!

Blizz, defend your lobby or get the hell rid of it! :clown_face: :clown_face: :clown_face:

My hydra sorc in PD2 is so fun to play. The biggest downside is the dated graphics, but that really doesnt bother me. Also, I think by default the games are /player5 so loot isnt a problem and being able to corrupt items adds to the loot chase for min/max players.

On Bnet 1.0, NA was only separated by two realms (US East and US West). You choose one and you see all games on that realm.

Now we’re being automatically connected to one of their many (?) servers and it’s only showing us games from that server.

So someone on one side of NA East might not see games from another part.

This is only an guess based on my observations on this topic. But I knew something was fishy on day 1. Millions of users were online and the game list updated slower than 1.14 in 2018.

Yeah it definitely does look like a better experience than the one on D2R, and that’s all because of their lobby and game list is set up right. If they can do it, Blizzard sure can too.
