Obviously, something must be amiss. Starcraft got a no-CD patch back on January 16th (Patch 1.15.2). Barely 3 weeks later, Warcraft III got a no-CD patch on February 6th (Patch 1.21b). But no Diablo II patch has been released to date.
The Diablo II patch was confirmed to be in development when Blizzard folks visited China to unveil the Starcraft II Zerg Race. (March 14th, 2008)
As of June 4th, I was shown the wall once and again. No further details on Diablo II patch. However, something happened yesterday that may ignite rumors among fans. So ... let the rumor mill commence!"What projects are Blizzard doing at the moment?
Blizzard: Patches of WOW, Diablo II, and as what we've done during past ten years----Starcraft."
A fan over at the Battle.net forums reminded that June 25 will mark one year since Diablo II ladder was reset. To this, Drysc (Blizzard Forum Moderator) said:
There are a few questions to ponder here. Will Diablo II ladder reset again nearing the Blizzard Worldwide Invitationals? Will the Diablo II patch be released to mark the new ladder reset? Seeing as it has been four months since the other two Blizzard games got their no-cd patch, will the Diablo II patch contain anything besides a no-cd patch? Was Drysc kidding? Is Drysc's underwear red-hearts? well ... get those engines working. Start your comments."The smell of fresh sulfur and rot grows stronger...
Never mind, it was just my lower jaw."
This is what happened a year ago on June 25th:
"We will be resetting the Diablo II ladder on June 25, 2007, beginning a new ladder season and providing a fresh start for those participating on the ladder realms. All current ladder characters will be moved to the non-ladder realm, and the ladder realm will re-open as a blank slate where all-new heroes can make their mark. Try out a new character idea, adventure with your friends, and race to be the first on your realm to reach level 99. The realms will be offline for approximately four hours during the ladder reset."
Was this the news you couldn't tell us about?
Hopefully at least a good week before WWI .
Or people will get psyched anyway from whatever new Blizzard title emerges and start playing D2 in mass. And starcraft of course.
BTW, are you spanish?
"ahh gotcha" - I think thats a clue!
The numbers that those letters represent (in order of alphabet) are:
188 7152081
add the numbers together:
1+8+8+7+15+20+8+1 = 68
68 divided by 6 (because its the 6th month) = 11
The change over is gonna happen on the 11th!! Thats today! (or tomorrow for most of you)
Or close to it, rather... Hm...
This is kinda a wild one.
This is, of course, based on my own intuition and gut feeling... I have no proof unlike Atrumentis! If I did it would be scary. But anyways, In 18 days, conceiding with Blizzard revealing D3 @ WWI... diablo3.com will be launched with pretty images and stuff of the new game! (I want to believe!)
Yeah, I need to quit doing drugs but MD is being crazy :rolleyes:
Haha, yeah, it so does portray this whole website well.
Nevertheless, i will attempt to recalculate.
188 71520381
add the numbers together:
1+8+8+7+15+20+3+8+1 = 71
Swap the digits around, and you get 17!!
The change over is gonna happen on the 17th! The same day as the ladder reset! :rolleyes:
Actually... I believe you're wrong my good sir! Every good and logical person in the world should have converted the ASCII characters to thier respective Decimal numbers first, and then calculated =)
97 + 104 +104 + 32 + 67 + 111 + 116 + 99 + 104 + 97 = 931
Take 931 and divide it by 7 twice (The thread started on the 7th) and you get a solid 19
We will get some solid info on the 19th for sure!
I heard in Diablo 3 Rick Astley is suposed to shove Diablos soulstone into his forehead...
I hope not..
