Diii.net has received a hot rumor about the major changes coming to Battle.net as Blizzard upgrades their game hosting service to support the upcoming Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 titles. An excerpt:
"When D3 comes out, Blizzard will be making major changes to battle.net. All players will have a universal battle.net account for all games. They will start selling a $6 key chain with a digital face that updates every 10 minutes or so with a new 11-digit number. That 11-digit number will be your password. This will make it nearly impossible to keylog or bruteforce accounts."
Diablo III Season 38 launched with Ethereals back, but players are reporting Error 395002, disconnects, and server trouble.
Diablo 3 Season 38 starts March 27. Here’s what to finish before Ethereal Memory begins, from class choice and stash cleanup to Conquests and Ethereal
Via Diablo’s global director of community Adam Fletcher, Blizzard is introducing new measures to improve the quality of season launches in the future. Across both Diablo 4 and the aging Diablo 3, fans of Blizzard’s games should all benefit.
If they didn't let the cellphone guy touch the 3rd one in first place, they wouldn't have to dance around like clowns trying to make money.
We've been asking for less "boring" seasons... "boring"... not "buggy"... same ol' rehashed content just a different color is not working.
It's long been confirmed that Blizzard has a huge customer service and support center in Austin, and they repeatedly mentioned the big upgrades and security fixes coming to battle.net with SC2 and D3, plus the recently implemented the code scrambling device for WoW accounts. So this is a pretty believable rumor, as far as rumors go.
Yeah, at this point, most of Battle.net 2.0 is still speculation, except for the little things they might have said by mistake.
Thinking that they are aiming to have the best gaming network in the world when it launches is probably not unlikely though. (whether they succeed is another question, but chances are that they will)
key thing sounds stupid for a game. I dont want my password changing every 10minutes.... thats really annoying and if you lose ur key-thing then ur basically screwed beacuse not only can you not recover your password but you have to go buy a new 1 and prob do some extra things just to log in. That would really suck.
Wow, implementing key fobs in a game is a sign of some serious sh*t. Entropia Universe has one and that's because people buy ingame islands for $29k and stuff.
I am telling you right now that it will be a cold day in hell when I pay for Battle.Net
