BIG UPDATE 20.08.2021 -( second beta!)
Rod Ferguson said to us, feedback MEANS NOTHING. No game lobby, no changed.
With community we made big bug and changes list:
HUGE BUGS:
*FPS drops in random moments noticed on:
PS4Fat/Slim/Pro/PS5DE/X1S (Much less!!)
*Freezes during act changing
*Can’t use Enchant on allies
*Blur in random moments while running (didn’t notice)
*After opening Town Scroll Portal, paladin’s aura are disactivated. (Still bugged in console)
*After enter to Duriel’s chamber sometimes using skills is disabled.
*Can’t trade runewords. After putting in trade window, it’s closed.
*ROLLBACKS!
*Monster’s conviction aura makes resits -100%.(FIXED!)
Small bugs:
*Hard to notice entrance like 2nd floor Vipers tomb on minimap
*Polish Version is not translated well. Found “Voulge”, not “Spisa”
*Killing big monsters pack sometimes don’t generate sound effect.
*Not all emotes under “R3” works.
*Impossible to put runes/gems into items in Shared Stash
*Sometimes selling items don’t generate sound

Oh my, i thought i’m the only one who got freezes during playing the game on ps4 pro. Is kinda wierd all the time. I hope the got fix this early ! i still wana play it. But if they wont refund is the only way to solve
What about ps5 de? Is in freezing there too? how did they release such noticeble things in beta. i saw a lot of youtube videos playing on PC everthyng is fine there
Lobby and chat would be a good option for consoles.

for me the most important thing is the lobby and creating games with the name !!! A very well written list!
Sadly the beta on consoles felt like cheap, lazy PC port. Remember when D3 on consoles was released way after PC, so devs had enough time to figure out the controls? Yeah, that didn’t happen here.
You have great console controls blueprint in the form of Diablo 3. Just copy it, please.
Also game had problems with general performance (30 fps by default on PS5 - seriously?), connection stability and other bugs.
The biggest problem for me (apart from poor performance and bad controls) was drifting left analog stick. For a second there I thought I have to buy a new gamepad, but no, the problem occured only in D2R beta. My character was moving on his own (which was very annoying during combat), the cursor was going all over the place by itselft during trade or inventory checks and overall analog sensivity was very unconsistent (sluggish in the menus, over-sensitive in gameplay).
But the good news is that you still have plenty of time to fix this. And I will repeat myself - D3 controls on consoles are perfect. Use them, pretty please.
Here’s my list from my other posts. I played on Xbox Series X:
I had several issues. Rubberbanding, other players animations would freeze (they were attacking, but they were standing still), my friend lost the ability to do anything but open close and navigate menus for a while, entrances and exits wouldn’t show up on the map. Not all emotes are working, only working emote selections: Help, Follow, Thanks, Run, Die, Bye. This appeared to be the same for all characters, locations, and game modes.
Suggestions:
1- Fix stairs… going up and down is hard and slow.
2- Item quick move… Maybe bind it to Y on Xbox. It can move items from/to your inventory/chest/cube/belt.
3- Sell… Remove hold button, change to press.
4- Game names… You should be able to custom name games for people to brows. How do you know if it’s a trading game/pvp/pindle run etc.?
5- In game chat… This will help the game stay active.
Suggestionen are good but order is wrong take 4 and 5 first and i agree
Oh, I didn’t mean it as level of importance, just that I had 5 separate suggestions. I think you would be right though. Chat might be the most important, and lobby game names are almost equally as important.
I’m not sure if this is supposed to be a feature, but it honestly feels more like a bug.
On two different PS5 DE consoles that are connected to different TVs the screen will dim when in a darker place like a cave. The dimming impacts everything including the interface. I have confirmed that both TVs don’t have an auto-dim/power saving mode enabled.
I tried disabling “dim screen when inactive” in the PlayStation settings (which shouldn’t have to be done anyways) and the issue persists.
Would love to see kb&m support for console. Would also like to see the lobby system like on pc.
We need lobbies and a way to chat in game, I played D2 LOD for years and the community of this game is what made it successful. There is a serious need to break away from the D3 matchmaking system if you want this to be successful after the “new” wears off. Whether that is enabling mouse and keyboard for lobbies and chat or whatever it needs to look like.
The only major bug I encountered through both sections of beta were that anytime I tried to go from A2 to A1 via WPs it would crash the entire game. Then when I would load the game back, my A2 merc would only be a floating spear for the rest of the time. If I restarted my PlayStation it would work again but that was it.

Im really sorry guys, but…
NO LOBBY and NO MAKING GAME NAMES - RUINS EVERYTHING.
How can we do baalruns? Trade? How can we manage fair pvp?
IT IS 99% not the game i loved… Nobody will buy it without basic functions that were in original.
And PC gamers have those functions! WHY? Why there is such discrimination ?
I have bought every game from Blizzard, but now i think we shall boycott this, sorry guys…for emotions…

The blur from running randomly was pretty horrible. I am very surprised it wasn’t noticed. I’m running on ps5 and it was a constant issue seeing the entire background blur while moving, definitely a problem.
I did notice the aura going away when returning to town, that was definitely strange.
I had an issue on the first weekend beta when taking armor in my inventory, trying to switch places with a different armor and it wouldn’t stack in the same spot, centered it and then wouldn’t let me choose any space to the right of that spot in inventory, only let me try to place left of there. I recorded a video of the issue in case reference was needed.
Definitely need an option to quickly load belt with potions when in inventory instead of manually placing them all. It took forever trying to do that while outside of town.
Another set of hot keys with triggering would be nice, like L2 with keys for more options.
An option to fill identify tomes completely instead of one at a time would be nice, also being able to pull one scroll out of a tome would also help.

The Aura on the Paladin stays active After respec, and it stacks on the new one you select after the respec.
And the is a way to fill the belt instantly, just put the Cursor on the potion inside the belt and hit R3

Sorry Blizzard. Like always u showed - FEEDBACK MEANS NOTHING. Rod Ferguson said on Twitter - no game lobby. No need features.
I Hope Sony will allow remove preorder and give me money back. It"s my last feedback and money support for you.
Kudos for the quickslot tip, I couldn’t figure it out. That alone will improve gameplay a lot.
