14. Global servers (No US East/West forcing you to re-create. Simply switch regions before lanch to play with anyone on PC)

^BillyMaysed

If I create an account and play on Europe server and I want to switch to US server, I can just swap which region I want to play in without starting over? All my characters/gear will come over from Euro to US?

Yes sir. You can play with anyone in the world as long as they are on the same system. PC with PC, Xbox with Xbox ect. And you can freely switch characters from system to system if you own a copy of D2R on both.

Clearly they are still e-mailing him daily asking for advice. Probably still have him on payroll. The good ones always leave. :cry:

1. Auto Gold Pick-up - Not Needed
2. Advanced Stats Screen (Shows total FCR, LL, Magic Find ext) - Not Needed
4. Stash size increased to 10x10 + Added 3 more Shared Tabs. - Not Needed
3. Gamble Refresh Button + Item no longer disappears when buying multiple of the same type. - Not Needed
5. Cow King Kill Causing Lock-out Removed - Not Needed
6. Ability to link items in the chat window to show other players. - Not Needed
7. No game creation limit. (do limitless pindle-runs! :exploding_head:) - Not Needed
8. New Battlenet System. (consoles need lobbies still) - Not Needed; Some additional things would still be nice.
9. No character expiration. (20 character limit *hopefully* won't be max on launch) - Not Needed, 20 character limit is fine, you have the option to buy another account if it bothers you that much.
10. Ladder-Only Unique Items Unlocked for Single Player + Non-ladder - Would prefer to have ladder at launch but this is the next best alternate TBH, I personally don't believe this will have any major impact on the game.
11. Ladder-Only Runewords + Cube Recipes Unlocked for Single Player + Non-ladder - Would prefer to have ladder at launch but this is the next best alternate TBH, I personally don't believe this will have any major impact on the game.
12. "Endgame" Events Unlocked for Single Player. - Not Needed
13. Playable on Xbox, PS, Switch *with* cross-progression. - Meh, Never would I imagine people playing D2 on Console.
14. Global servers (No US East/West forcing you to re-create. Simply switch regions before lanch to play with anyone on PC) - Not Needed, however more people to compete with on each ladder so we shall see how the economy is.
15. More Details for Mercenary abilities - Not Needed
16. Hold shift to compare items to equipped (no recommendations, just shows items side by side) - Not Needed
17. Enable loot drop names to be up all the time instead of holding Alt. - Not Needed
18. Ctrl click items into stash instead of drag & drop - Not Needed
19. WSG and Ebug Removed (clearly if these are changed there is going to be a list of others soon.) - Each Bug can be debated for Pros and Cons, But i prefer them to keep the bugs in the game.
20. Unique Appearance of all items now show properly on your character when equipped. - Not Needed
21. Character selection screen has ultra close-up of your character + A Detailed back-drop of current Act for increased immersion. (underrated addition) - Not Needed
22. Wide-screen Support up to 19:9 (removal of black-bars while zoomed-in possible compromise) (control zoom while holding F + Mouse wheel.) - Don't care, doesn't affect me because I prefer 2k 144 monitor over widescreen.
23. More Accessibility Options (controller support, change text size, colorblindness, etc) - Not Needed
24. TCP/IP removal (Lame. maybe brought back in a future patch?) - Good for the game, removes a lot of security issues. Modders can Mod Original D2
25. Increased overall map visibility. (comparison video: https://youtu.be/JUZkCIRT09U) - Not Needed
26. Completely New Graphics Engine with Remastered Cinematics and Sounds (obvsly) - Not Needed
27. Optional toggle for "Miss" text to appear on monsters for better combat feedback. - Not Needed

Ty to

If they want to implement all these changes, do it in D4 or another game. Leave the original D2 alone

This isn't "preserving the game" it's changing it.

yes it is preserving the game by not changing any of the core mechanics (like by adding ploot).

They are ALSO improving the game with all these updates besides, of course, WSG & TCP/IP removal.

Other than that, everything else is pretty damn nice and only improves the game. Especially things like Ladder items ungated, Auto gold, Advanced stats screen and no cow king lockout.

Idk if I love the idea of shared stash yet

Obviously for QoL and xferring it’s great, how will it effect economy? Theoretically only 1 cta is needed per account, 1 enigma even, 1 anni. Just put it in the shared stash before u jump on your other char

Supply of items will be the same as usual (obviously not at first due to no bots) but demand will be low

I was just saying how i think consoles still need the lobby system. But according to blizz they won't be adding them. They simply added more game choices to choose from. Heres the update:
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/d3/t/diablo-ii-resurrected-console-lobbies-tcpip-uw-updates/44360/323

CONSOLE GAME CHOICES
Quote
"Shown below is a breakdown of additional parameters players will be able to sort by in the Party Finder at launch beyond the quest options that were present during Beta:"

Boss Kills

Andariel: Requires Act 1 completion
Duriel: Requires Act 2 completion
Mephisto: Requires Act 3 completion
Diablo: Requires Act 4 completion
Baal: Requires Act 5 completion
Cow King: Act 4 or Act 5 completion depending on Classic or Expansion character

Zones

Free Roam: No requirement
Tristram: Requires nothing
Canyon of the Magi Tombs: Requires Act 1 completion
Chaos Sanctuary: Requires Act 2 completion
Pindleskin: Requires Act 4 completion
Maggot Lair: Requires Act 1 completion

Other

Pandemonium Event: Act 5 completion
Uber Diablo: Act 5 completion
PVP/Dueling: Requires level 9

So these^^ are all the choices you'll get from games to join on the console versions of D2R. :rolleyes:

I literally said in the same sentence "besides WSG and TCP/IP". Hard time with reading complete sentences?

Your concern is for the FG prices not being high enough for items instead of improving the actual gameplay? You've been smoking the devil's lettuce boy? Your priorities are fucked.
