Anniversary Event!

So the Anniversary Event was gunna be about a week into S34, with the change it wont be at all. Is there a chance you will add a week onto the event so we can play it to level in the new season? It would be fun to have the Anniversary Gem while leveling :slight_smile:
Please and Thank you.
Worth a shot ~.O
Thank you for the consideration!
I suppose I should have posted this last week but I’ve been playing in D4 all week having fun over there… :stuck_out_tongue: Just a thought, I realized the season push changed all my leveling plans.

They alrdy answered that this is not possible.

Darn, thank you. Had to try though :stuck_out_tongue:

But eu and asia will still have it some hours, us wont

It is totally possible. They changed the date on the season. If they had the ability to restore everyone’s mail, paragon, mats and getting that all hot-fixed in, then changing the date on an event is far from impossible.

They simply do not want to put the effort in.

You need to take into consideration this would require a user patch. And getting such, even if it’s small, would require getting approval process from Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft, as the game’s on the console as well.

And this part is probably shared code, so it’s not really something which they could put out a PC only patch and ignore the console, as should something down the line come up, it could be problematic.

They said its impossible, so it wont be changed is what im saying. If u think its possible, discuss that with them, not so relevant for this threads request.

Which is like I said, it is not impossible, they simply did not want to put in the effort to get it done.

Which that and ā€œthe technology isn’t there yetā€ is IT guy speak for ā€œI don’t wanna do itā€. I don’t know how many times I was fed that line by an IT guy or management only to comically watch them try to backpedal when I told them that a rival company(ies) had been doing it for 10-20 years.

Totally agree with you on that. Especially since it is less than 24 hours until start. I am simply pointing out that ā€œimpossibleā€ when it was given was pretty much a BS reason.

That’s literally what they (meaning, Blizzard) said about Rust Storms about 20 years ago in D2:LoD. ā€œIt’s impossible to detect most bugged items,ā€ they said. ā€œWe can’t possibly locate and destroy all dupes,ā€ they said. This was their official stance for YEARS.

Then one day, literally out of the blue, Mousepad decided ā€œsilly Blizz, imma learn you a thingā€ and coded detection for it into her maphack on a lark, in like 2 days tops. When you inspected other players it would relabel bugged Iths as ā€œStupid Ith.ā€

About a month or so after that, is when the first Rust Storm happened and wiped out Iths. True story. Maybe they were tired of getting shown up by a ā€œbasement dweller hacker?ā€ :smirk:
