UPDATE: 9:33 AM EDT: LOOT PICKUP ISSUE
TrendyBrad replied to TrendyBrad's topic in General Discussion
UPDATE 9:33 AM EDT Servers are up and running, we should be good. Thanks for your patience! UPDATE 9:10 AM EDT Servers are going down now to deploy the patch. Target is still 15 minutes downtime. Stay tuned! UPDATE 8:59 AM EDT Final checks are looking good. We are expecting to patch in roughly 10 minutes. We've set things up so our downtime is limited, so we should only be down for as long as it takes our server network to spin back up. Estimated downtime is approximately 10-15 minutes. UPDATE 8:15 AM EDT Fix has been confirmed and we're running our build process now. Estimated time fo -
Regardless of being in a party or not, or being in a private tavern or not, if you select "Quickmatch" in the wartable, you'll be in a Public game that could be joined by other players. Just always select "Quickmatch" from the wartable and you should be good.

Your announcement ate my daily quest...

There are still a few lingering issues with Daily and Monthly quests. We squashed one of the bugs in this patch which may actually directly relate to what you saw. We know of at least one more issue that may be causing players to not RECEIVE a Daily quest. We've been chasing these bugs for a while now and finally making some progress. Would love to know if you see issues with having your quest wiped after the patch today. :) -
So to clarify - it is a non-trivial amount of work to setup maps for every difficulty in our range. We picked the ranges we knew, based on metrics, would hit the widest player base for the limited time event as we finish balance and setup work for these new map's permanent placement in the maplists. When the event retires, the new maps will show up in Freeplay and Endgame for ALL difficulties, with the appropriate rewards. And yes, you'll still be able to get the unique weapons from them at that time. That said, we've decided to go ahead and add NM4 versions to the Halloween event. The NM4 v

Thanks Topler, you beat me too it! :)

For what it's worth, we've talked about this issue a few times, and it certainly isn't easy to fix. We actually just discussed trying to get this into our next milestone, because this isn't as much of a bug fix as it is a major set of work inside of two features. Mostly, that's because this is (at least) 2 different bugs. Bug one has to do with physics, or lack there of. We don't have a real physics engine in DD2 (loooong story), so enemies make a pretty basic check on if they can traverse over a surface or not, usually based on a number of factors. Some barricades, especially when placed on s

Thanks to everyone who has helped us research the issues today around invites. To recap: Players are currently experiencing error messages when attempting to invite other players through Steam, most predominantly "Unknown Error 5000." The problem was caused by our changes in today's patch to fix an issue observed during peak hours where players weren't able to connect. We identified the problem early this morning with our European players, and worked to put a fix in quickly, which we deployed around 10:00 AM EDT. All our tests seemed to show that Invites were working similar to before the p

For what it's worth, one of the reasons we decided to do the Sphere refund is because it ended up being relatively easy. The data was still saved on the profile and the implementation didn't take that long. When we saw the frustration on the forums and did the quick investigation, it was worth the extra effort with limited risk. Many of the other requests are significantly more complex, and have a ton of added risk, so we aren't able to divert critical resources to addressing them. We always want to do our best to respond positively when you feel you've lost something, but we have to balance t

The Collectors Edition will be available for a bit longer. We'll make sure to announce before any of the Early Access packages get retired.

Wins not properly counted for the daily bonus?
TrendyBrad replied to Bogdanov89's topic in General Discussion
We haven't seen this in internal testing, but that doesn't mean we don't have a bug. I've passed this over to QA. If anyone else is seeing the behavior, or has any input that may help lead us to repro, please please post here -
Got a free access, can't buy defender pack. What to do?
TrendyBrad replied to giux's topic in General Discussion
You not being able to buy the $24.99 pack is due to a setup issue we're sorting out with Valve. You should be able to purchase the pack you want on Monday next week, if all goes as planned. :) -
I checked with QA; it's supposed to display at the Title Screen if you're just launching the game, or in the center / top part of the HUD if you're in-game. We double-checked this and the system is still working, but maybe a little easy to miss when you're in-game? We'll keep researching to see if maybe there is a situation we don't know if where the message doesn't show.
