With the recent Diablo III announcement, Blizzard is trying to stir up the Diablo community once again. They’ve wiped clean the Diablo II ladder, and a new race has begun for level 99. It’s cool to see a game that’s over 8 years old still holding the interest in players.
Additionally, patch 1.12a was released on Monday which allows players to play the game without the need to have the CD in the disk drive. In addition to the patch, you’ll need to copy the ‘.MPQ’ files to your hard drive.
You can obtain the patch by logging into Battle.net or from Blizzard’s support page.
