Blizzard Entertainment has started a new forum topic asking fans of the Diablo series to jump in and enumerate some of the changes and enhancements they'd like to see added in the next patch for Diablo II. Mac users are just as entitled to get the same content as PC users.

“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,” Blizzard, the developer of the popular RPG title, says. “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.”

The developer and publisher of several successful titles, including StarCraft and World of Warcraft, continues to outline that “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.”

The company urges users to be “mindful,” as not every request will be fulfilled, “But, hopefully, with your feedback we can prioritize and do our best to cover as much as possible,” Blizzard assures Diablo II fans.

The latest update to Diablo II eliminates the hassle of using the game CD every time you want to play. If all required Diablo 2 “.MPQ” files are also available in your Diablo II directory on your Mac's hard drive, you can put that Diablo II CD in a picture frame and up on a wall, according to the developer.

So, as Blizzard itself puts it, “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?”

what i want in the next patch is DIABLO3! Lol. wishful thinking... oh and maybe if they could put in a couple of cheap wow gold for my toon in WoW, that would be awesome too! But seriously, I want some sort of teaser for Diablo3 in the new patch. It would be nice if they could put in more hype to the game by using the good 'ol D2.

I'd like to see some extra options added to single player. Like the ability to reassign skill points. I have 11 in swords but i found an uber mace so now those points are being wasted. Maybe some ability to enhance finding probablities for specific items. Trying to complete my immortal king set is maddeningly slow.

Please fix the TPPK glitch that has destrored the hardcore community.


This can be easily done by activating a Hostile timer when you enter town thru a portal.

Or

Do what you did with Hydra and Assassins traps (have all spears disapear once the caster enters town)

Please these are extremely easy to fix but you havent done anything about it.

PLease
