A new Diablo 2 patch is around the corner, and Blizzard would like to know what fans want to see in it.
Despite the fact that work is steadily ramping up on Diablo 3, Blizzard devs have not forgotten about the still thriving Diablo 2 community.
According to a post on Battle.net, the new 1.13 patch for Diablo 2 is just around the corner, but before it goes to release Blizzard is curious to know what the player base wants.
"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."
Of course, despite clearly asking for the number one thing players want, a lot of posters have come back with HUGE wishlists of tweaks, fixes and out and out dreams. Still, it's great to see Blizz still supporting Diablo 2. This move also begs the question of just how long they're going to continue to do so - or is this going to be the last big update before all hands switch focus to Diablo 3?
Regardless, if you're a fan, and still playing, now's your chance to be heard.
