Diablo 3's Latest Patch Adds Performance Fixes for Mac Gamers
By Sarah Rowe
The latest patch to Diablo III includes a lot of performance fixes for the Mac version of the game.
Blizzard has just released a new patch for Diablo III, which brings it up to version 1.0.2b.
The biggest update in the patch are the fixes to the game's performance on the Mac OS X. Players, myself included, complained about the game's lackluster performance on the Mac—which suffered from numerous framerate issues.
The framerate problem has since been remedied with the latest patch.
In addition to the Mac performance improvements, the new patch makes some small changes to the Auction House, allowing broken and damaged items to be sold. They will be automatically repaired upon purchase.
Also fixed are a few of the Barbarian's skills, which had previously caused the game to crash when triggered.
Finally, it will no longer be possible to skip entire acts in a multiplayer game, so players will have to run through act bosses before they can unlock the next area.
