I haven't played since Thursday, but is this true? Blizz is basically saying they fixed and patched all the MOBA issues through custom games.

If so, this is exciting news. Should be able to confirm by tonight

Been doing some research, sounds like this should be rolled out within the next week, barring any massive problems in the PTR.

Excuse my lack of knowledge here, but is this why the game will randomly shut down on it's own and show me an error report?

Has to do with the recent blizzard patches => will cause random disconnects in a variety of games. They're trying to fix it but there's no eta afaik.

Correct. Blizzard keeps making these updates which are great in theory... but they are messing with years of custom games and triggers etc. and most of the time.. The original creators aren't here to fix them, which puts the whole custom game community in trouble.

However it seems after a much delayed response, they have been able to fix their own self-induced problems like the errors and game crashing.

I think within a week or two it should be rolled out and games should be stable again, but this is just an estimate.

Crashes are fixed on the PTR by the way. Whenever they decide to roll out that patch, it should be better.

Thank you! I was growing frustrated with being dropped from games entirely mid-game. Always seems when I'm doing well, too, lol. The games I'm doing terribly on, it is as stable as a psychiatrist lol.

Lol cmon now Sev. we had like 9 inhouse games last night, if anything it seems bigger than it was before. im sure it'll take a couple weeks til everyone comes back, but we don't seem to be hurting for activity.

it seems like everything they fucked up since april has been reverted now, what are your major complaints?
