1) the game is stable, but some annoying bugs squeezed in. for instance, if you try to create a game with an existing name, youll need to close game down and reopen to be able to create another game.
2) online/lobby chat is very obnoxious to use because each different people you speak with have their own whisper tables you have to navigate, like several chatboxes. /f m and /r dont work anymore.
3) there are some occasional crashes without any error messages, but they dont seem to rly happen at critical moments. they mostly happen when youre done with runs, or are afk in town, etc.
4) the loading time when using wp's is around 3 seconds vs almost instant on old bnet.
5) the graphics are beautiful. the game felt fresh and different, still does now even 2 weeks later.
6) the game is has excellent ping. im NA east-coast, but even playing on EU servers myresponse time was good. this will make lld very interesting since everyone can play with everyone.
7) desync is completely gone. no more spamming w to stutter your character, and no more invisible paladins from spamming charge.
8) game seems free of dupes and bots for now. this seems to drive the prices up like crazy. we are almost 2 weeks in, and shako still goes for 1000-1500 fg. it makes your farming runs feel like they matter.
9) on the other side, trading for lld scs (life+mana/res/max) will be very hard because there are almost none in the server and pvm/hlders overpay for them just to use as temps. even shitty charms like plain 15 lifers seem to go for 25+ fg. there are people offering several hundreds of fg for a single 3/xx/15. imo we will have to have a healthy mix of jsp/in-game/other trading medias to find those good inventories.
synch is 100% still there, so no idea where you're getting that info from.
its not nearly the same as before, but synch definitely still exists with charge,
wsg spamming run/walk synch is gone though yes, as is str bug, and namelock is almost completely gone for sure lol. ww and charge cant escape mindblast anymore either.
