[quote name='Medievaldragon']Like I said earlier, I do not know if the new Diablo II patch has bug fixes, nor Ladder resets (very doubtful), nor new items, or such. I only know two things for certain:
1. New patch in the works.
2. One feature.
I do not know if there are more than one feature in the patch. I know. It is frustrating, and a no-news. I simply wanted to hype fans telling them that a patch is coming. .___________And the patch "feature" may be useful and welcomed. ___________[/quote]
Well now that I think about it.... This does make a lot of sence.
This feature may be useful - a new class
This feature be welcomed - a new class
This class would just bring up the Lore that goes into the next Diablo game.
Maybe a new crowed of classes come into the game, we interact with them, and then we get to play them in diablo III
WHY, WHY you ask this would happen? Well what if Belial and Azmodan completly fucked over the other cities, and spread horror around the world.
Then the new heros ( new classes ) would run towards us, because they needed to fix the world stone fast.
Because when the worldstone broke, it could have created a portal letting Demon bosses, and crazy mofos out.
I am now seeing how this patch, to me, will probably be a small patch such as a no-cd patch.
After rereading medievaldragon's post, I noticed that he did not say the feature will be useful or welcomed, he said it may be useful or welcomed.
Well I don't see the patch being a major addition to the game now because if it were a major addition such as a new class, new act, or new quests, why would medieval say that the patch may be useful or welcomed. If it were one of those major features, then why wouldn't he say that the patch would be useful and welcomed cus obviously any diablo player would love one of those additions.
That is why I think the patch deals with a no-cd key or even like chaos said, more resolution options because these smaller features would be useful and welcomed to some players but not all. Therefore, these features may be useful and welcomed.
Logically and realistically speaking, I think that this patch will deal with a minor feature such as no-cd needed. Idealistically, I hope that the patch will deal with a more major feature but my hope is dwindling.

Actually, I wouldn't mind to just get a no-cd patch. lol, because I'm such a noob when it comes to hacking and mods, I can't figure out how to get myself a no-cd crack. I've tried so many times, but it never works
Also, I know that you can't use the same cd-key on two computers to go online simultaneously, right? But does anyone know if its possible to use the same DII key but two different LoD keys on top? (two different LoD cds but the same DII cd on different comps?)
For the first paragraph, it's not illegal to use a no CD crack when you have a legit key. That's what I do.
For the second paragraph, no, but it was surprising to find out when I tried.

It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
Lol, I tried the cd-key thing too cus I wanted to play some LAN play so I was like ok I'll just buy another LoD and we'll be fine. WRONG!! I had to go back to bestbuy, try to find another regular D2, couldn't find one and had to buy the battlechest instead. I now have 2 copies of D1, 2 copies of D2 and 3 copies of D2 LoD.

Well if it's only a minor patch I would like to see higher resolution support. While I don't have a problem with a no cd patch. I've wanted a patch to support higher resolutions for quite awhile. playing at 800 x 600 seems so primitive when 1280 x 1024 is todays standard.
After rereading medievaldragon's post, I noticed that he did not say the feature will be useful or welcomed, he said it may be useful or welcomed.
I wouldn't read so much into the exact wording. From medieval's later posts it's pretty clear that he hasn't been filled in what it is either and so is taking a cautious route to not build up hopes, hence the re-edit of OP.
Lets just cross our fingers and hope for the best, and if it turns out lame we can just stick our fingers in our ears and go, "LA LA LA LA LA".

What are you talking about? I've played LAN games many times with the same cd-keys on several computers :confused:
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Like the first BlizzCast, i reckon that Blizzard will announce the patch, have Metzen talk about it and then release it soon after, like the WoW patch that they talk about. But it would be different because the WOW patch is a content patch and works differently to Diablo 2 gameplay.
All we can do is Hope.
People can say that they are realists but being a realist is like saying only my opinion is right, and hoping for the smallest possible thing, so they won't be disapointed. Which is fair enough, but a world full of realists would be mighty boring.
Why is it that Diablo's patches never really add huge or new content, while WoW's patches are huge things that add whole new areas? They never seem to add in anything requiring new visuals in Diablo. They added in Lilith, but she's really just a recycled Andariel. So whats up with that? Is it too much effort or something?
Oh yeah, Alphax, I didn't say that I didn't want to do it, I said that I didn't know how to do it lol.
Unless you can point me in the right direction to one that definitely works and has good instructions?

That makes NO sense. You're drawing conclusions where there are none, only because they suit your own desires. Its delusional. It only "makes sense" because you want it to make sense, but it really doesn't. Think a little harder. A new class is way out of proportion. Medievaldragon said it himself, this is all gone way out of proportion.
Storywise, they used the Andariel model with new colours for lilith because lilith is andariels mother, and Mephistos daughter. but i agree, it is lazy.

you don't need multiple keys for lan, just go to other online and then ip/tcp(i think that's what it's called......
Is there any information on what will be included in the patch if it is ever released?

No details have been given. Just that a minor patch is on its way in the next few weeks. The only info you will get will be when the patch is released along with the patch notes.

Yeah but, I was hoping I would be able to use two computers as a way to transfer items from each character at will, without having to rely on other people (even though I don't even know anyone that I can rely on).
Also, I tried to do the ip/tcp thing ages ago, but I was using the fake IP adress my computer gave me. you know, the 0.00.00.01 thing or something. Cause at the time I didn't realise it wasn't my actual IP adress. So yeah, I wasted alot of time with that and a friend (who doesn't play diablo anymore).

Hmm, I wonder. Perhaps it is because it's old, there's no profit involveld, the old team is disbanded and knowledge has been lost.
Also, it might be that Diablo was never p2p. Just a guess
