Diablo 4 devs eyeing Mother\u2019s Blessing extension after rocky Patch 1.5.1 launch Blizzard EntertainmentDiablo 4\u2019s Patch 1.5.1 and the entangled Mother\u2019s Blessing event are off to a rough start. Blizzard is considering extending the event to make up for lost time. Diablo 4 Season 5 is well and truly underway now and, for the most part, players have been thrilled with the game\u2019s fifth major content update. Infernal Hordes have been a highlight but a litany of bugs and performance issues have held it back. The soldiers of Sanctuary had been gearing up for the release of Patch 1.5.1 and the Mother\u2019s Blessing tie-in event that has launched alongside it. There was hope that this would address some of the major faults with Diablo 4 Season 5. However, both Patch 1.5.1 and the Mother\u2019s Blessing event are off to a shaky start with numerous issues plaguing players. Blizzard is looking into a potential hotfix as well as an extension for the event. The patch went live on consoles on August 20 but PC players on the Diablo 4 Forums have reported that the update is yet to arrive on the platform. To make matters worse, Patch 1.5.1\u2019s arrival on consoles has come with a number of problems. Promised in the patch notes was \u201ca cache of Legendary items with guaranteed Greater Affixes, to make up for the issue seen with patch 1.5.0 where players were not getting items with guaranteed Greater Affixes from multiple sources.\u201d Many players have reported not receiving the cache and suggested workarounds don\u2019t appear to work for everyone. Some players have reported obtaining the caches but not receiving an item with a Greater Affix. Outside of this, bugs within Infernal Hordes and crashes are also present following the new patch. In response to the persistent issues caused by the patch, Blizzard has shut down the boosts from the Mother\u2019s Blessing event and Community Manager Adam Fletcher has announced an incoming hotfix. As well as the hotfix, Fletcher relayed that the team behind Diablo 4 is considering how to make the inconvenience up to players. \u201cWe will look at maybe some extra time with this event or extend a future event in lieu of the lost time,\u201d he announced. There has been no more official word on fixes for the patch or the event but Fletcher has promised updates when concrete details become available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
