With Network games as well. Battlenet is a different story, but under DIRECT CONNECT/MODEM/IPX blizzard should have put in an option to save the CURRENT STATUS of the game, including levels and all, not just your character. Diablo is the only Blizzard game I have bought, I've seen Warcrap 1 and 2 and hated them, and I'm now getting frustrated with Diablo for the following reasons : - Can't save multiplayer games - You never REALLY die - Cheaters - Hack and Slash, hack and slash (yawn, having fun yet?) hack and slash - Constant CD access, a pain with high speed CD drives, why no option to install more on the HD? - VERY limited spawning option - Too few monsters (same ones just with different colors and abilities...WOW! <--- sarcasm - Stand next to a person with +100 illumination..your still in the dark Makes no sense to me, "WHERE'S THE LIGHT?" - Inventory sucks, seems like I always have to juggle it around to make items fit. - Too easy singal player (no difficulty settings..HELLO!?!? - Too small a world to explore, just one town? Come on... and only 16 levels to explore of the dungeon...give me a break, that's WAY to small That's enough for now........
