Bashiok has just made a post asking fans of Diablo II to chime in on what they would really like to see included in the upcoming 1.13 patch. This is a good chance for all of you to let Blizzard know exactly what you'd like to see, so be sure to head on over to the official Battle.net thread and share your ideas! Here's the official news post:

"We're in the process of working on Diablo II content patch 1.13, and we want to try to include the Diablo community's most important changes in our production schedule. To achieve this we're asking for your input on what you'd like to see in this patch. However, we're making it a bit stricter than a full-blown wish list.

If you were to get an advance look at the patch notes for Diablo II 1.13, what is the one patch note you would want to see?

Our goal is to get an overall sense of the single most important request from every member of the community. We want as many posts as we can get for the largest cross section, so if you have friends who used to play Diablo II or just don't frequent the forums as much as you do, let them know this is here so we can get their '#1 patch note' too.

Please be mindful that we're not going to be able to make every change mentioned, but hopefully with your feedback we can prioritize and do our best to cover as much as possible.

This thread is locked on purpose. To participate in this feedback collection please visit the main thread here:
http://forums.battle.net/thread.html...88961&sid=3000"

So let's hear your thoughts! If you could have just one thing included in the patch, what would it be?

I'd mainly like to see more items added!

Possibly even more importantly - it would be nice to see some major bugs fixed like the inadequecy of the character screen (doesnt show correct damage etc) and possibly some extra info added like %MF, %FCR, %DR etc

I don't see a point in all of you long-retired Diablo II players suggesting anti-cheating measures since you probably won't play for any length of time if it was gone. Secondly, I've seen maybe two Baal bots in the last couple months since the mass bannings and have yet to come across one duped anything this whole ladder. But I'm sure you'll all go out of your way to lie and refute me, so I'll discard that last though while making it known to everyone else that will likely flame me for it.

In any case, with cheating and botting being at an all-time low on the player end, I'd much prefer an actually content update, like additional quests, followed by fixing the spam bots (this is different than "botting" for anyone that's about to point that out- botting in Diablo II is using a third-party program to run MF runs or XP runs) and following that, fixing some character balancing issues. The questing and spam bots, though, are at the top of the list. However, it would be nice if they could fix the spam bots while improving channel moderation, or many, many clans are going to be highly dissappointed, as well as me, since Blizzard created the need for channel moderating bots through their lack of moderation support for channels in the first place.

*Readies flame-retardent suit.*

I have a GREAT idea.

Make gold worth something NOW.

Lets get this thing on the right track for diablo 3.

Maybe start putting uniques and set items up for sale from rare vendors.

Make them VERY expensive. For hell level uniques make them worth like....5 million gold or so? Maybe more..I think that would be REALLLY cool. Think about it, you would approach the game COMPLETELY different.

I still play, just solo or sp hc because cheating/hacking/pking. When the legitimacy of the items that are being traded around the community and ability to play cheater safe in pub games with so-called friends is put into question, it sort of ruins it for me. Monitoring these things would make me play far more then I currently do, and I've been playing since Diablo 1. And in terms of there not being hacking/duping still occuring, it's there, trust me. But your point will ring true for many others.

You'll notice I never said it was non-existent, I alluded to it being nearly non-existent. Sorry for any confusion. There will never, ever, in any online game for the rest of eternity, be 100% legitimacy.

Edit:

Sorry, this could get off topic, and it would be my fault. What I really mean to say is, like it or not, if they made the game even 99% legitimate, the vast majority of us would go back in to retirement again after a short time of playing it again, simply because we've done everything and there would be nothing new to do. I agree a game world without cheats would be great, but since cheating is at a low right now compared to the near decade since release, I'd much rather have actual content to experience.

How is d2 runewords at all relevent to d3? Runewords are in place in d2 so its viable to see more added, but not really needed.

If they aren't continuing runewords in D3, its obvious that they aren't exactly as fond as them as they used to be so those no motivation or incentive to make them.

ALSO....at the same time, that would SOOO mess up the d2jsp system if they did it right. Or at least damage it.

IT would be creating a much better in game economy that is self sufficient and outside sources for gold would really not be necessary.

I mean of course people are still going to use d2jsp but I think it would definitely cut down on the dependency that people have on it. For those that only use it to get anything half way decent would be able to kick the habit.

Holy Crapazord!!! This is awesome!! I would love to see 2-4 new quests!! That would be incredible!! Extra Stash space would be really cool too. And of course there are the bugs/hacks that should be worked out.

I would vote new quests, but, I lost my old DII install disks when I moved houses, and then my old computer died, so I think I'm gonna go buy a new DII and LOD. I'll BRB...

Okay got em, time to make a post.

Nothing. I'm good.

Yeah, like they'd give us that...

But I guess if enough people asked for it... Hm... Someone should start a poll here and submit the results to the Blizzard forums

Dude! That defeats the purpose we are getting new classes in DIII come on already:evil:
I think we are better off with lore content or quests to tie in DIII cause after all time has past and we need to know what happened especially to Tyrael
