They just updated saying “upwards of two hours”. So minimum of two hours from now, plus there will be a big update for bnet users.

It’s comical that they hyped up the launch all day with a countdown, and then apparently, they find out there’s some bug an hour before launch instead of, I don’t know, finding this bug way before now. How can they do all this hype and then find a last-second bug that delays the launch for this long? LOL. Are the $59.99 skins insufficient to maintain the game enough to prevent this?

Their big mistake was leaving the servers up for the last like 4 hours of the season and trying to bring the expansion live at the same time. I get it’s a live service game but for an expansion launch THIS big they should have shut them down in advance instead of pissing off the world but not doing it.

LOL, Come on guys Bliz has been horrible at launches since 04. This is a fact… I would love to tell you a time over the last 20 years that I did not have to wait or a fail launch but that would be a lie. Only company that I have ever seen that has never had a flawless launch.

@pezradar … Seriously this. What are you guys trying to show off over there? You’re launching a new addition to the game take the servers down- There’s not even Leaderboards like no ones trying to squeeze in last minute entries.

sidenote: Not trying to kill the messenger here Adam you’ve always been great it’s just aggravating when I route for a game to succeed and this stuff keeps happening. Last Epoch at least had an offline mode and it lost 90% of its playerbase because of the first 24 hours.

For sure, but the fact that they hyped it up all day like nothing was wrong, and then an hour before the launch, they find some bug LOL I thought I was done being surprised by the incompetence

They did have an update, about 15 minutes ago.

Latest update – it looks like it will be about upwards of two hours until we launch Vessel of Hatred. Additionally Battle.net players will need an additional sizable update before playing. We will let you know when this update is available. We apologize for the delay and look forward to seeing you in Nahantu soon.

Maybe, be less toxic and more patient. As this is not a good look. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Literally every season there is an issue. So an hour before “launch” they release the oops post with “soon” which took over 2.5 hours to get an official update of “oops 2 hours more and a sizeable update” which I’m sure will take 2+ hours to download. Every. Single. Time. No longer shame on Blizz, shame on me for believing they could ever do any better.
They’ll just delete the thread anyway.

I mean, slow learners are a thing… don’t be so harsh on yourself. I completed “space marine 2” on veteran while all my clan tried to connect in futility… guess who is an IT professional… no time off booked… expected it to not go smoothly… “no regrats” (sic)!

We all keep hoping for Blizzard to do a good job on releases but it will NEVER happen! I bet Diablo him self would sooner give us a drop of water in hell Before bliz got a launch right!

they really are (insert here). start was 01.00 in europe. one hour after midnight. first they say small delay. and now this. start like 8 hours later if at all. ppl could have gone to sleep. thats just incredible what happened here. same at last season start. incredible. fire half of the staff. im not joking.

Calm down, children. You’ll be able to play D4 soon enough. Stop obsessing so much.
Take a breath, do some homework, watch a movie, play another game 'till this one is ready.

Well here is already 22:55 tomorrow i have to work, d4 team decided to release things in the middle of the week, so people who actually have jobs can’t enjoy the launches and worse, now it is delayed two more hours with a sizeable patch… in future release/ start seasons at fridays, its an entertainment company not a bank, we basicly have weekends to have fun, you guys are not reliable enough to launch DLC’s in mid week.
