ive tried several methods to get it running im just getting errors and crashes, had it working fine at one time, just redid my system and cant figure out how I got it working before.

Methods tried:
playonlinux installers both disc and installer(disc doesnt read correctly)
winetricks
wine
using the demo and overwriting the gamefiles

etc..

any help appreciated.

Never tried on 18.04 but i had it running on 16.04 with wine

my issue is it runs with wine but freezes if i try to go to bnet or it freezes 5 seconds after main menu pops up.

no matter what I cant get into a game, single or multiplayer.

Which version and branch of WINE is everybody using?

My previous Ubuntu 16.04 machine used a staging version of WINE (before 3.0 was released) and ran okay.

Currently struggling to get things running on my Ubuntu 18.04 computer.

since quite a while (about a year?) i am having the exact same problem.
sorry, haven't found the reason yet
i think it appeared after a certain wine update, but i am not sure anymore.

i might have found the reason. d2 added some functions ( extrawork ? ) in december of 2017, which are not stable enough.

edit: or wait, maybe not, this seems to be older... i don't know
