Presumably this means the rebalance of Crucible monsters are not included? Hopefully you roll out that one pretty quickly, as it sounds like it was overtuned rather badly.
Thanks for letting us play 5 days later on console. D4 is a console first game this time around. Imagine if Blizzard made PC players play 5 days after console.

The good news is this Crucible league is terrible, unrewarding and this league will be dead in a few weeks. So we don't even have to waste our time. Best to find something else to play.

I have nice rtx 3080 custom built PC. I enjoy console more and I love not playing against bots and trade bots.

I mean, it’s not like Valve has update certification requirements the way Sony and Microsoft do. Consoles getting updates later means they were released ASAP and the console manufacturers were doing their obligatory testing malarkey. PC getting updates later would be GGG deliberately holding back patches for no reason; there’s nothing that would inherently necessitate that.

If the world was a logical place, you’d be complaining to Sony and Microsoft because they introduced delays for updates on their platforms. Or do you think PC players should be made to wait, too?

Yes.
At least for the sake of hotfixes.

I’m not sure I understand… you’re saying if GGG e.g. fix a client crash, anyone playing on PC shouldn’t be able to download the stability improvement until it’s also available on console?

If that is what you’re advocating for, would you mind elaborating on why?
