Blizzard support process is fucking garbage. It really shouldn't be so obviously stupid/difficult. Can you not make another account?

If you haven't used it in years, do you need to reclaim it? Perhaps just fire up a new one?
Obviously it's a bit shit but there's a path out of this for you if you wanna skip the annoyance.

Unsure, but I don't want to. I don't want random emails so that this can all go wrong again. The problem is that my current account that I can't access is already tied to my Playstation account from previous titles, so even though I can create a new Blizz account I don't know how that would handle a new linking to the console.
I'll have to give it a go if this isn't resolved within a few hours but I'm hoping, probably naively, that they aren't actually as stupid as their support system indicates.

I want to tell my co op friend not to pick necro. He loves being necro but it's so annoying as a barbarian.

When I played on xbox last night, I didn’t get any prompt to login to Battlenet.
I guess maybe it’s already linked or something?

If you go to your Xbox account you can see what’s already linked.

Well I'm hooked! Feels a hell of a lot more polished than the beta was, and thankfully they've sorted out VRAM usage. Kind of wish I'd skipped the story while playing the beta, though.
I can see myself double dipping and getting the SX version soon for couch play.

thankfully they've sorted out VRAM usage. That's good to know. This was one of the games making me think my 8GB 2080 Super was going to need to be replaced sooner rather than later. The medium textures looked like arse in the beta, particularly during cutscenes.

Last nights issue resolved itself after an hour, luckily I'd been chugging coffee all evening at work. Since then it's been smooth sailing, having logged in and out a few times, had to tear myself away from my level 10 Druid for work now.
@derbs, I had a similar issue back when the D2 beta launched and getting going on the PS5. Sorry, I can't remember how I sorted it , but it wasn't via Blizzard.

It has to be via Blizzard at this point, I can’t access the account to see if there’s anything else in the way. They’ve replied, and I had to give more details. Waiting on the next step atm.

I have caved and bought the deluxe edition. Wasn't going to, but then someone mentioned CDKeys a couple of pages back and for less than the standard version from the store it seemed rude not to.

Fuck!! I just bought the standard edition from cd keys and as it was downloading Microsoft offered me a special ‘just for you’ deal to buy ultimate for £30!!! Sucks I redeemed already and there is no refund for that. Oh well

Post by dfunked on Jun 2, 2023 15:09:29 GMT
I think that's just the upgrade to ultimate, which you'd need to already own the standard version to make use of.

I can’t be arsed with image hosting but it looks like the full game. However if you are right then that makes me feel a lot better!!

Where was this offer? On the Xbox menu itself ?

2 game sharing Xbox mates got a surprise today when it turned out you can't share early access from the the Deluxe & Ultimate Editions. Turns out said perk is tied to the Blizzard account and not the general game licence like normal. Aside from some Destiny 2 extras it's the first time I've seen early access gated like this.
Doesn't actually tell you that though, just gives you a licence error not disimilar to the problem some PS players are getting.

Yeah, same thing on PS apparently. Can't play it on a different account on the same machine as one that owns the license.
Hopefully just an early access thing.

Bah, I'd assumed that if I bought this today it'd still count as a pre-order. Purchased a standard edition code off CDkeys earlier for Xbox and it's telling me I need to wait until the game's released. Has anyone that bought a key today been able to play?

Early access only applies for deluxe and ultimate editions. Standard has always been 6th June, pre-order or not.

I think this is the idiot tax for people like me who bought the standard edition today, thinking I'd be able to play ahead of release. I've stumped up the extra £30 as was all set to play until being told see you next Tuesday...

So my wife can‘t launch the game on her account on my PS5 because she doesn’t have PS+. She can only join, but not start, a game on my account, with a character she made in her name. However, if I leave the couch coop game, she can continue to play alone.
Meaning, if she ever wants to play alone, she needs to start a coop game on my account, and then kick my character.
I am not sure I find all that particularly reasonable.

I am not sure I find all that particularly reasonable. Sure this is a PS+ issue? Anyone on the 'Primary' console should have PS+ privileges as well. Sounds awfully like the problem a lot of people are having in that the early access licence is tied to the Blizzard account of the person who purchased the game. Normally other people on Primary (PlayStation) or Home (Xbox) consoles have access to early access periods like this but Blizzard have gone about it differently. Would explain why she can only join if you're present first. It'll clear up on the 6th if that's the case. Disregard obviously if I've missed something glaringly obvious. If it is a PS+ issue then yeah that's proper shit.

I wish all preorders got early access. I didn’t want to shell out for the season passes. How are the log in queues? They seemed fine on the server slam.

Post by dfunked on Jun 3, 2023 7:14:40 GMT
Yeah, server stability has been fantastic so far. I haven't seen any queues and the longest that I've heard of have been three minutes. Seems to be one of those rare successful launches for an online game. Suppose that could all change on Monday when more people pile in, though.
I had a little bit of rubber banding lag yesterday lunchtime, but it's been rock solid apart from that.
