Diablo 4\u2019s Season 1 Battle Pass is here bringing with it special mounts, armor transmogs, and much more. Unfortunately, the Battle Pass has not been warmly received by the community with players already blasting various aspects of it, like its lack of premium currency. Now, one Diablo 4 player publicly slammed the Premium Battle Pass UI for its \u201cmalicious design\u201d after accidentally activating it during a stream. Diablo 4 player criticizes \u201cmalicious design\u201d of Battle Pass UI Content creator and streamer Rurikhan posted a clip of the incident on Twitter and explained, \u201cSo Blizzard placed the \u2018Activate Premium Battle Pass\u2019 button right next to the button you have to constantly press to check your Season Journey. Guess what happened to me and at least 5 others on my stream. This is straight up Malicious Design.\u201d The video showed Rurikhan opening the map menu before tabbing over to the Season tab to check if progress in a specific dungeon counted towards the Battle Pass. Unfortunately, the streamer hit the \u2018Confirm\u2019 button on his controller one too many times as the Season tab defaulted the cursor placement to \u2018Activate Premium Battle Pass.\u2019 With no confirmation message, the transaction began to process while the content creator screamed in horror. Despite the game crashing, the transaction still went through and his saved Premium Battle Pass was activated. Rurikhan explained that he had a Premium Battle Pass from buying the Digital Deluxe version of the game, but didn\u2019t want to activate it during Season 1. The streamer wasn\u2019t the only player this happened to, as multiple others replied to his tweet and claimed they\u2019d done the exact same thing. Just had a powwow with people on this post stream. We have a temp fix in the works that will at least ensure the cursor isn\u2019t defaulted there and will instead be defaulted on Season Journey. \u2014 Adam Fletcher (@PezRadar) July 21, 2023 Thankfully, Diablo 4\u2019s Global Community Development Director Adam Fletcher confirmed that the team has \u201ca temp fix in the works that will at least ensure the cursor\u201d is not defaulted to \u2018Activate Premium\u2019 after switching over to the Season tab. While Rurikhan wished the team luck with the game, he ended up deleting Diablo 4 after the incident as shown in a video highlighting his criticisms of various elements of Season 1\u2019s design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diablo 4 player slams Premium Battle Pass UI for its \u201cmalicious design\u201d Blizzard EntertainmentA Diablo 4 player condemned the \u201cmalicious design\u201d of the game\u2019s battle pass UI after accidentally activating his Premium Battle Pass.
