I doubt it'll be available before the end of this week, earliest.Originally Posted by Death_StrikeR
so.. anyone can provide me a working game.exe for 1.11?
Or else, I'll just return to 1.10
I'm going to refrain from the ranting in general, but I want to bring up a point about the "a private bnet game is just as good as SP" comment that I haven't seen yet.
For some of us (myself included,) the choice to play purely single player isn't *only* because of all the stereotypical 14-year-old-1337speaking-haxx0rz and lag and such.
I have very rare internet access. And when I'm on the internet, I very much doubt I have enough bandwidth to use battle.net (free dialup. You get what you pay for.) So, I do not have the option to go on bnet and play a private passworded game just to get access to these features.
And, incidentally, I bought both D2C and LoD twice each. For single player, in both cases.

First game D1 bnet = hacked :(
First lvl 70+ character in D2 bnet = guy drop hacked everyone in the game :(
I dont want my items to all fall on the ground along with everyone elses in the game again and watch someguy walk around and pick them up because none of us could respawn. I have bought every blizzard game released for PC. Except WoW. I wont pay for that game its ridiculous. Im never buying another blizzard game if its gonna be net only. I want to be in control of my save files so I know they are safe. You have to put time into games and I do I dont want to go on crap.net and lose stuff or lose my account or character. Or get temp banned for muling etc.
Blizzard is going the wrong way... :mad:
This isnt' just when the merc wears it? It crashes if the player is wearing it?Only problem is whenever the valk is cast the game crashes
I, too, feel as though we SPers have been given the royal shaft by Bliz, but I'm not going to get my panties in a twist about it. As soon as I heard the new portal was unopenable on SP, my general like of Bliz turned into more of a general dislike. Plus I hate the fact that they've left these keys in SP just to rub the possibilities of "What Could Be If U Were A Cattle.Netter" in our faces. At first, I was so angry...
But... now I don't care. If they have the hutzpa to say "Forget you!, SP community!", then I can say the same thing right back to them. IMO, I think this patch was designed to be more of a promotional tool than anything else, since the only bugs that were fixed were loopholes and the FE bug, one that just about EVERY D2 player has complained about (except me; I've never even experienced it, and I just Patted a barb).
But I think back to the time before 1.10 came out... it seemed like every D2er was on the edge of their seat waiting for its release, and many of us were trying to get as much news as we could in the months before the release. And for this new patch, it seemed like no one knew it was being created until a week ago! I don't think we should have expected much from it at all.
Yes, the patch did add a few new bosses to tackle, adding challenge to an already challenging game... but do you really want a +6 skill charm that badly?? It'd be nice to fool around with for a while, but I'd call it an item that makes whatever build you've got to be uber-cheesy and -cheap. By the time you're strong enough to get the item, you're already strong enough to take on the entire game. And personally, I think it's fitting that cattle.netters should be the only ones who can find and use an item that almost seems like cheating; it's befitting that those dupers/PKers/haxors be scrambling for an item that's just as cheesy and "l33t" and they are.
After having said all that, I'm probably going to get the patch in a week or two after all the new bugs/fixes have been discovered. And I might even mod my game to add all the new uber bosses, just to experience the challenge and see if any of my characters can stand up to them, but there's no way I'm going to keep my game that way. In the end, I do thank Bliz for making updates to a game that's so old and has taken so many hours of my life away.
The one thing that irks me the most though is that it seems like SPers are more dedicated to the purest forms of D2, where we dupe less, we hack less, we treat one another with respect and love (except for Durf!)... and they CHOOSE to disallow content for SP. It's like you're in love with this girl, and you do everything you can to impress her, comfort her, shower her with gifts, make her dinner every night... and then she tells you you're not good enough for her, and she goes and makes out with your dumber, uglier, cheating roommate...
edit: and it's not even like the guy's got more money or anything...
:mad:
If that means anything to anyone, also to note the IG is still there in the next game.Code:Halt Location: , line #4022 Expression: Unreasonable internal error 6fd9d69e
That quote is not quite true. I was one of those that used the No CD crack and kept the CD in the case. When I patched, I got the same error as everyone else, but I still didnt want to use the CD, so here was my solution:
Use Alcohol 120% to rip an image of the D2 LoD CD and use Daemon Tools to mount it as a Virtual CD. Make sure your registry entries for DiabloIICD (Just run a search in regedit for that exact value "DiabloIICD") are pointing to the right drive letter and it will run 1.11 just fine.
Alcohol 120% is the best program that I have come across for ripping an image in true 1:1 fashion. As long as you own the actual CD of the program, it is perfectly legal to do this. And it saves the CD from getting damaged.
Hope this helps others with the No CD crack issue. Cheers!

Someone should send replies like ElmoCC's to Blizzard. His last paragraph really hit the nail on the head for me.
Back before 1.09 came out, a thread in the BNet forums suggested that Single Players be allowed to simulate the multiplayer monster hit point and XP settings. And when 1.09 came out a while later, a feature which we now all know as the 'Players X' came out. Ladder-only items were also made available to SP, but not in the non-Ladder Realms. I don't think Blizzard necessarily neglects the Single Player. It's just that we're low in the totem pole of priorities for them right now.
Anyway, I wanted to ask: was the Inferno/Arctic Blast/Wake of Inferno bug fixed in 1.11?
Meh, I won't say where or who but the no-cd check was cracked few hours after the 1.11 launchas they do with every game. It was a decent try by blizzard but they got owned.
we should keep in mind that none of the people responsible for the creation of d2 are at blizz anymore. this patch may be giving us a glimpse of some changes that are going on internally at blizzard and why the blizzard north team left.
