Patch 2.6.9 PTR has ended!

that’s literally every PTR…

That is not really the CM, which they are still hiring for. That is Adam Fletcher who was hired as the Community Development Lead

See above. I suspect he and Cydra who is filling in from other Blizz games, will be taking this PTR.

I know. That is why I wrote:

Eww this sounds so uneducated.
I think they think they know.

Doesn’t blizzard do that often?
They have this attitude that they know and can deliver blizzcon baby, and then they release something like this.

Blizz, this is exactly why we all know you dont know how to make games well anymore.

Would brevik and shaefers and such think this was a great idea?

You could stop this nonsense by asking us what we want for D3 and D4, all the time, as much as possible, every day, everywhere?

Value us as co-devs, dont just say you’re listening and dev the game your way w 1/4erly updates on what YOU decided to do w/o asking us.

I installed the new patch, but it refused to play. It says it will play after new patch is installed, but it goes back to main screen, I press play again, the process starts over again and doesn’t play.

It is not LIVE yet GiantDwarf12. You have to wait for them to turn it on.

They will update the Twitter post when it goes live.

The one thing I learned from the last PTR is never to start off in HC. I believe I disconnected like 12x last PTR just trying to hit 70.

I’m new to the PTR. When I try to enter the PTR, it states that I have download the patch and restart, but it never starts to download a patch. Is this normal? Does this mean the PTR is not open yet?

The PTR is not LIVE yet. (Please scroll up and review MissCheetah’s post)

PTR will be live Soon™

When the PTR is almost ready for deployment there will be a small patch with S21/new stuff.

It will download on your launcher at that time.

Just leave your launcher on desktop and you’ll be good.

Indeed. Patch is downloadable before it actually goes live. Having the patch does not mean they turned it on yet. There is no specific time for it.

Just a quick update on PTR, we discovered some issues that came up and are needing some additional QA time with the build as we want to make sure we get something out that is thoroughly vetted on our end. PTR will not be going live today due to these additional tests needed.

We will keep you all informed on updates regarding PTR, but it is looking like it will now land sometime next week as we get this ready. Sorry for the confusion on delay on this one. We appreciate all the help and feedback we get during these PTR opportunities.

Sorry to hear that. Was looking forward to some DH testing this weekend. I would rather have it stable though instead of broken and frustrating.

Thank you so much for telling us what is going on and giving an estimate on the time for resolution.

Will the duration of the PTR still be 2 weeks from start or will it be cut short?
