Sounds like they're taking Kripp's advice.

Woo hoo - I can actually do proper speed-runs now

Smoke Screen, Run, Smoke Screen, *Rubber Band*, Run, Smoke Screen, *Kicked from game*

Hey guys, the next Non-Xpac Diablo release should be called Diablo 4. Youre welcome.

I seriously belive that. Look at the AH stuff the just talked about and now the rubberbanding. Everything after Kripps vid.
Coincidence? I really do not think so.

waiting for multiplayer incentives to confim.

It's called Return of Jediablo. Turns out Leah has a twin bother Luke, who Adria was raising.

Hopefully this will resolve a good deal of the rubber banding that happens. Hopefully.

Me too.. but they said rubber banding for high latency.. not rubber banding for awesome connections :/

Seriously doubt they even watch or read anything Kripp does. They have their own agenda, as previously mentioned. In the end, all Blizzard cares about is keeping gameplay numbers up so people keep spending money in the RMAH. Should be self-evident in the fact that the first major update to the game was getting the RMAH working--not fixing botters, spammers, or exploiters; OR fixing end-game inferno grinding. The rubberbanding has been a serious issue for a Monk friend of mine, and also a very bad issue for my wizard, who has literally rubberbanded halfway across a zone after teleporting.

Seriously doubt they even watch or read anything Kripp does.

Blizzard has linked a video of Kripp clearing inferno. I think it was the budget barb build.

Fixed several cases of "rubberbanding" that could sometimes occur while playing under extremely high latency, when a character changed direction or movement speed, or when a character used certain movement-based abilities (like Tempest Rush or Whirlwind)

This is what I see:

Fixed cases of rubberbanding when:

• playing under extremely high latency
• when a character changed direction or movement speed
• when a character used certain movement-based abilities

that means the last two will still apply to you

He just so happened to mention things that were obviously needed... very obvious.

Exactly. People were posting about that stuff during the first week.

It is... They have bee wanting to add those things/ been working on them well before the video =)

Yeah they have been working on it long before Krips, even tho his video is very good...Its been in the works long before. People need to relax with Krip shit and relize he is only another player to Blizz. No offense Krip! a good one at that too.

Quote from Formoor1986

in Eu servers rubberbanding occurs often, still not fixed (tempest rush monk), my average latency is 50-60. The servers are overpopulated there is no latency issue in my opinon, blizz's servers can't handle this amount of data I/O and creates packet losses which leads to rubberbanding.

That's what I thought when I read that... "did they...?"
Besides, the servers are in no way overpopulated at this point. Most of players abandoned the game or was banned for botting. I uninstalled the game even.

What's ruining the movement of characters is the excessive use of bandwidth and processing of the Auction House. Too much useless searches because of the limit of 3 characteristics, and it's programmed as higher priority than the game, as showed when they had to take down the AH on US servers to allow people to play under 400ms.

Some of these statements really show just how ignorant people are about programming. It's pretty simple ... there is one big list ... everything goes on the list. The list gets is categorized by "group" (graphics, engine, logic, etc). Time estimates (guesses) are attached to each item. A "Severity" type flag is place on each item (how badly does it affect the game and how many users does it affect negatively). Finally they come up with some sort of "value" number and that determines the order in which things happen.

Public opinion might move one of the data points slightly, but doesn't send Blizzard into a tail spin in the list.

Even if it did, once a bug gets assigned to a team, the work has to begin. I can't guess how many man hours the problem took to solve, or how many real days it took cause I don't know the man hours or the size of the team that worked on it. Even then, it's got to go through internal developer testing, then has to be turned over to the QA guys to test (which could be days of testing) ... then the code has to be merged into patch payload and deployed to a test cluster and re-tested to make sure the merge didn't break anything before it can be deployed live.

That process didn't start, and consequently complete, due to that video. Guaranteed.

People have been complaining about rubber banding since the beginning and they have been promising it's fix since week one......
