Please invest in High Availability, Load Balancers, F5 servers, Authentication servers and an observability platform. Stop hosting D4 on a Windows 95 platform and start using your yearly 6 billion dollar revenue to invest in proper equipment and learn from your mistakes that go back 20 years ago and still are popping up today. You put yourself into shame with these long queue’s.
They spent that $ on dumb promotions with billie eilish ans halsey.
The best part of every game launch is all the expert devs and techs that come out of the woodwork.
“We’re getting DDOSed” = we underestimated how many people wanted to play this game. Every time.
Your idea is great but it requires money so I’m sorry but it can’t be implemented.
Thank you for your suggestion
the funny part is most of the revenues goes to the shareholders, board members etc while the devs and the slaves getting nothing while taking blames for almost everything
The more things change, the more things stay the same.
It’s a shame the 99% isnt coordinated enough to steam roll the 1%, imagine if even 50% of the worlds population just stopped spending money at, i dunno, wal-mart, or mcdonalds, or any company that operates out of china, or NK.

Sure they’d still be rich, but they still got pay wages and bills while not making any revenue, they rely on us, as the consumers to pay their employees, and their operations bills, while they skim off the top and pay nothing out of pocket, sometimes not even taxes. If we want to get through we have to take and keep the only thing they care about. Our disposable income. Make them pay their own bills for a while.

CONSUMERS UNION! PEOPLE UNITE!
I’d add,
Blizzard 2 words: CUSTOMER SERVICES
Employees need a course about Customer Services Improvement to keep updated the players instead let them stay on the limbo.
Using that logic will put so many hamsters out of work, think of the hamsters!
I maintain that they are under constant assault by the AI botnet and they try to pass it off as just hardware/software issues.
Another “wanna be smart” guy.
If you had the slightest idea about servers and networking, you should know holding millions of concurrent users, and with a minimal lag gameplay like we already enjoyed, is not done without a huge investment in: servers and networking.
