This may also be an anti-piracy move, as the system allows you to circumvent Blizzard servers and bypass checks there.
More and more games have gotten rid of this ability over the years, citing similar security reasons (it is somewhat rife with cheaters), but Blizzard did specifically say it was one aspect of Diablo 2 that would be carried over from the old game to the new one.įor most players, this is probably not a huge loss, though it is somewhat surprising to see a dramatic, last-minute reversal like this when the game is just over a month out. It was used specifically for LAN play, and also supported a slew of smaller mods to the game. So, TCP/IP support was a feature that allowed people to connect P2P instead of using the game’s dedicated servers.
