Another few hours left to go till Servers go back up. Gah damn Blizzard and their obsessively long downtimes. From the patch notes it appears Hunters get even more OP.

Yes in a few hours the servers will come up, however they wont be stable for a few days lol.

We're in the process of transitioning many of our internal tools to the new patch and are experiencing longer than anticipated time to completion. We're now estimating maintenance to be completed and realms available by 4:00 p.m. PDT. We're working to get you in-game as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience.

Son of a b*tch! Always another extension of time. Well looks like I gotta wait till after work to play it now. GG Blizz!

With a major patch like this, I think this was to be expected. No? Plus its blizzard! Lol

I will probably activate my account just for this patch, to see how everything is working out.

I just started my newly patched client and was checking out the graphics options. Most of the new graphics features are locked out because my computer is too old (Pentium 4, GeForce 6800). Makes me sad. :cry:

However they finally fixed the refresh rate problem where it only listed 60Hz. I can finally choose higher settings again.

I'm at work at the moment so can't check the statues, but is it still down?

Officially, yea. Blizzard extended the maintenance until 9PM EDT. Unofficially, it seems like the servers are up, but they're quirky. For instance, I (and a ton of others) can't get past the loading screen.

Weapon Skill - This stat will be removed from the game completely. Classes will start with all the weapon skills they need to know and will not need to improve them.

All the wasted hours capping every weapon skill.... That kinda sucks.

After about 2 hours of patching, I go to log in, and the game instantly crashes with no error. Wonderful.

Shattered!

I'm still about 3 hours and 15 mins from logging in so I hope this is all sorted by the time I get home.

Tried just deleting your Cache folder? Sounds similar to a problem I had multiple times on the PTR after patches, and clearing the cache always fixed it.

I still don't understand why people try to log in so hard during patch days, after years and years of patch days - You would think people would begin to understand to not bother trying to log in until the next day.

its called being 1337 .... ( or simply not having anything else to do at that time :p )

also if its related to MR_Candyman then the point is mute as the crash ( client error ) could be fixed in a week which is unacceptable ..

it should however be obvious that .. after a patch like this there will be lag :PP some ppl just dont get it :p

Particularly, Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 wireless earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever with limited Prime deal offering 33% and 24% discounts, respectively. Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations.

The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery.

Battery life is rated at up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off. With ANC enabled, playback time is reduced to up to 6.5 hours on the earbuds and up to 26 hours with the charging case.
