2.4.1 if goes to plan should technically speaking appear within 24 hours after the ptr ending. The patch never happens as the new season starts because things could go very wrong and they need a few days just incase beforehand to iron things out if need be. And yes the changes will already be active in NS game once you have the patch and yes that is prior to the new season beginning.
There is a lot of confusion with regards to macros. A lot of people do not realize that the macros they are using is against the TOS and believe it to be ok. There were a few posts made by blues on the forums about this and due to the language used a lot of people misunderstood those posts and believed that certain types of macros were ok (ie similar to the numlock thing). These people SHOULD NOT be perma banned. Give a warning first so they are made aware and at most a temp ban maybe 3 days or so. Of course if the macro is more advanced and automates a lot of gameplay then a perma ban may be reasonable. I know of a few people who were banned for a very basic numlock type macro and they were shocked when banned. They had no idea it was bannable and based on a misunderstanding and misinterpretation of words used by mods on the forums thought it was fine to use like that. A couple of people I spoke to were so disappointed after appealing and having their appeals overturned that they said they would never buy another Blizz game again even though they were massive fans of Blizzard and supporters in the past. I believe in those cases a perma ban is WAY too harsh and not justified. I also read about the steelseries mouse thing and after carefully analyzing and weighing it I believe this is something that needs to be addressed in the future. For gods sake ban the botters and thud users and some advanced macro users but do not punish those using simple macros who have no idea that this could be against the TOS due to a misunderstanding. You are punishing some very loyal gamers and fans who are far from being a cheater or ever having the intention of wanting to cheat.
simple macros should at most get a temp ban and first a warning. There are tons of people who have misunderstood what blues said about macro usage on a number of threads and believe that certain types of macros which do exactly the same thing as numlock are ok and not against the TOS. There is a lot of confusion regarding this. Warn first and at most give a few day ban. A lot of people do not realize that it is against the TOS. Then again more complex macros that automate a lot of gameplay should be a perma ban also.
hey guys I recently build a sup dh. Still fairly new to it but have done some gr90s with people. Looking for some people to play with. If anyone is in the same situation feel free to add me
