Nothing new here
only emergencies or extremely long patches start outside of business hours...these people have lives/families too
I don't see anything in this patch that is an emergency, which several other people have already stated. What they need to patch is things like making the Neph buff stay if you simply swap skills on your hot bar, or get DC'd. They said in the past that if you get DC'd from a game you have time to start it up again before it is gone, but that isn't even in the case.
The list of important changes that would warrant an emergency is long and none of these are among them. I mean updating tooltips? Seriously? Not to mention that the Azmodan quest hasn't given EXP for the second half for three days now so that's just a bold faced lie.
I'm just curious, but are you retarded?
It's always middle of the day somewhere!
He's the first of many this will be happening to, I'm sure. The easy access story elites are loot pinatas.
Who the hell is on during the day? Stay at home ma or pa? Unemployed people? Teenagers on summer vacation oh wait they might just be waking up now.... still don't see the logic in this astute observation.
If the internet whiners would have been the majority then yes, though they think otherwise they are a minority there are people who are hell bent on doing their job with upmost efficieny.
you don't work in IT do you?
but to be fair, 9-5 isn't the primary time for people to be playing so .. it makes sense for them to patch during the day
I think someone posted a video awhile back that you could farm that quest for 6000 gold every 4 minutes. Or something to that effect, gaining a significant amount of gold per hour, correct me if I am wrong though.
no, the itemization and diversity of builds was fun...not necessarily the methods in which to get said items...Blizzard has improved on the methods to gain (and continuing to improve in 1.0.3). It's the itemization itself (and build diversity for Inferno) that is currently worse than D2.
