    @Zizaran @PezRadar Won't that become a problem in the 3rd difficulty? I seem to recall that in act 1 every mob is cold immune, which I remember ruined it for me.

    @PezRadar Yup, I can't even create a character. "Issue occurred while communicating with the server".

    @Diablo @PezRadar the game just kicked me out after playing for an hour, it says my guy is level 1 and I get an error "Failed to enter game. This character could not be found on the server. Please try again." are the servers down or did I just get *****ed ...

  • SaintLewdest
    Charles Wilkinson (@SaintLewdest) reported

    @PezRadar @Diablo for some reason my character just randomly vanished from the server. No crash nothing. Just gone. When I exited game and tried making new game it said unable to find character on server.

    @PezRadar Nothing better than spending what little time you have than leveling only to be rolled back levels then having the "character already exists" error.... 20+ years and getting old D2 errors lol.

    @PezRadar Can the issue be resolved or have we just lost an hour of playtime, Adam? Just asking to know whether or not it makes sense to make a new char..

  • slayer_irish
    🤔 (@slayer_irish) reported

    The @CoalitionGears totally mutilated #Gears5 and everyone quit playing the game! Players that played #Gearsofwar for years left the game! Now the Coalition is forcing Console players to play PC players because the game is dead! The servers lag so bad it's impossible to compete

    @PezRadar #Diablo2Resurrected Character Progress on Online is NOT saved. Lost 40 minutes on my Necromancer. Seriously. fix please!

  • CeeJayCarter3
    CeeJay Carter (@CeeJayCarter3) reported

    @PezRadar Amazon! Btw, I’m sure you get this a lot, but would you guys PLZ consider putting “wsg” (weapon swap cancels stun animation) back in the game like legacy d2LOD? Without it, the pvp aspect is broken against stun skills. Great work on D2R, looking forward to putting time in! Thanks

    @PezRadar Not char issue for me just cannot create or join a game on private or online. Server issues or just a knock on effect from char issues ?

    @PezRadar Whoa guys chill out cursing and fussing won't fix the issue.

  • matt_saunders_

    @xbox_xTrilonx @PezRadar So some random person who has no history or loyalty with a game gets given stuff to hype up a game and often free things to give to their followers, it exacerbates the problem. There are no gaming commission rules, they’re just giving product out to whoever they want. Bad.

    @JT04st @CoalitionGears Only took 9 months and a total mess in order to see the obvious issue. SMH
