Diablo III Patch Adds New Loot & Paragon Systems [Feb 25, 2014, 7:19 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Battle.net announces the new version 2.0.1 patch is now available for
Diablo III users in the Americas, noting that users in other territories
will get the patch in due time, and that cross-realm play will not be possible
across mismatched versions. They have complete patch notes, which are very
extensive, as it outlines all the details on the game's new Loot 2.0 mode, as
well as the new Paragon 2.0 system. The new version is automatically available
through Battle.net and there are manual patches on
The Patches Scrolls
extracted from the automatic downloads for those looking to update the
old-fashioned way. The update process is not yet complete, however, as
this post
explains that things are taking longer than anticipated, and the earliest to
expect servers to come back online is 11:00 pm EST.
So if I start playing now, the only thing I'm missing from the expansion is the extra class and the new act, right? Might get a head start...
edit: Oh, and adventure mode - not worried about that at the moment.

They packed in quite a few changes for a patch. I am interested to try it out whenever they finally get it working.

Saw a post saying the class change notes were 55 pages long. (not yet posted)
A day without video games is like... just kidding, I have no idea.
If the servers ever come back up... If you never played it would be an okay time to start. I'd honestly say wait until the exp pack launches so you can just go through the whole content at once, if your looking to get into it now.

I played for a month at launch, but I think I may wipe and start from scratch.

I played through about 1/3 of the game over the summer. Maybe time to start a new game?
RIP RedEye9. We miss you.
So good! Started up a Clan. If you want an invite, add me as a friend Krovven#1128 and I'll invite you when I get home from work sometime around 5 pst.
Excited! Patched up, and..
They wiped all keybinds, and now locked all movement keys to mouse ONLY.
As a long time, old fart gamer w/carpal tunnel, i thank you Blizzard for continuing to be the giant, clueless fuckwits you are.
First, the refusal of proper controller support in anyway shape or form for PC customers, and now this. Less options to the player i say!
Consoles get it, but fuck those PC customers!
I wonder if there will soon be a Blizzard in-store option to purchase more keybind options for $60 bucks so i can have the same choice as the console customers?
Blizzard, you're the best!..

Why would they do that? It is very common for people to bind move forward to a key in ARPGs. Really dumb.

You can still bind "Force Move" to whatever you please, which has always been the case. Nothing changed.

I stand corrected. I was hasty in my judgement. Thank you sir for showing me the light.
A way to fight script kiddies maybe?
Haven't had a chance to play - hope to get back in soon.

With the AH gone and most decent loot becoming BoA I don't see why they would bother.
The new patch changes so much that it is basically a new game. It destroyed my character, for it no longer exists as it did! Some patch!
And a diablo game without trading isn't diablo. World of diablocraft. Sad. Deleted

I'd say that's a good thing!
Looking at some of the class changes today, it sounds like it could be fun...
And hey, manual skill points in Paragon - awesome!

yeah, but.... but.... the story and art! it still reeks of WOW!
very tempting to reinstall, I haven't played since 1.04 and the apparent direction Blizzard took with this game, I pass.
I also haven't touched on POE in a while, but damn I can't wait till Assetto Corsa goes full release!

Yeah, I still think Diablo still looked a lot more awesome in 2...
Lot of changes, I went back to one of my first builds when I hit 60 on easy which was a mini-archon build. Started right up in hell and am face rolling everything in my path. Probably helps I have 114k dps after the changes through.
