As for impressions, it seems a lot more solid overall with regards to game stability and bugs.
Overall, good patch, still needs some kinks worked out in balance, but this game is- RELEASE IT ALREADY BLIZZARD.

- The white item uncraftability has made it just like DII where whites are ignored by players 90% of the time. Drop rate for magic and rares have not changed too much.
- Skill change is well done, the 30 sec cool down will punish you for swapping in the middle of battle.
- Might be a bug, but you can still swap out the "potion button" with a skill.
- New stats are virtually unnoticeable, as long as you want damage just make sure it's your main attribute.
- Crafting is simpler, but requires more work.

I believe it says in the release notes that this is purely for the beta right now. That they are working on the actual functionality but that the button for now can be a skill also.
I am glad to see you guys like the patch. I hope to hit it Wednesday!
Still automatic.
Yes
Haha, I know right? Seen a lot of good impressions so far and its really nice to hear that some of the bugs were squashed out.(To be expected, beta

So the general opinion is the game is fit for release?

Not sure about server stability considering how many people there will be in each region, but everything I played in the beta seems acceptable to launch. Then again we have only seen a small section of the first act.
Have to remember though this is Blizzard they launch when they say its ready.
One of the thing a good amount of people forget. This is how Blizzard has always operated as far as I can remember, hell I remember they were doing it for Vanilla WoW and WC3.
Played a bit and I like the removal of the Nephalem Altars, not needing to pick up white items makes looting/selling/salvaging much more efficient as well. This should ease people's complaints about having to travel to town to deal with your inventory. You just simply won't have to as often. Unless your OCD about items and you just can't let any items be left behind. Stutter still seems to be present though a bit less exaggerated than last patch. I haven't really go into crafting yet on this patch so no comment there. So far though, it's feeling pretty good!

Also played through it earlier today and I like all the changes.
Note: the skill/rune system is still NOT final. They said this in the patch notes so expect this iteration of it to change in the future.

Does the game seem even more smooth/responsive to anyone else, or is it just me?
Yeah, that is a known issue. I thought it might have been fixed in previous patches so they will probably have to look back into that for patch 10.
I also thought they said to have it fixde... well that's what beta's for :-D
turning of v-sync is a supposed workaround according to official forums.
It does for me as well, a lot of people on Bnet forums seems to think the same, game is a lot more stable. The people running into problems, such as channeling spells, are people who have had problems since a few patches ago in the first place.
Nope.
I had zero issues before this patch and have now run into the channeling spell issue which sparked up the Error 30008, and has now evolved into not being able to log on again.
I'm getting Error 395002 as of now and if the wiki is right it refers to database issues, and it seems to me that it could be server-side related.
A fair guess would be that when my game crashed the information that holds my character list got corrupted. But it's only a laymans guess at this point.
still no beta invite
diablo 2 is my most played game ever...
No kiddin, still waiting for a beta invite and I've been signed up since day 1, got the WoW annual pass, and all the good stuff. Most anticipated game for me in a long time. Hoping for a summer release, too many good games come out in the fall.
Me too. I own every Blizzard game except Warcraft 1 and they never choose me for the beta (WoW, SC2 and now D3...)still no beta invite

Lol right there with you, and I did own Warcraft but have no idea where the game might be now. I still remember walking into Target with my Mom (I was too young to drive) and buying Diablo II. Cannot wait for this! I do hope they expand the beta soon or announce a date, at least I can calm down if they announce a date that isn't Nov 2012 or something.
No change for me, maybe it stutter a little less with v-sync on, but without it looks the same.
Yeah. When I posted that last night, everything was perfect. I tried multiple characters, no problems at all.
Then I booted it up today and it's back to stutter city. I'm going to be so disappointed if this continues at launch.
I suppose I could try installing to my SSD, just in case that helps. But it really feels like a bug since I can run far more technically demanding games without a hitch.
I still get it, but it does seem improved.
I would say that I've played quite a bit of the beta and this is the first time I've found a Black Mushroom.

I think it granted 250 life instantly in previous builds, but now it seems to just look pretty.

Why won't this game come out?
I wanna play it already!

Because they want Torchlight II to get a head start.
Yea, I noticed zero difference, still stutters like mad when new things try to load.
You need to use it to make a portal to the secret cow level.

Wtf? They have the secret cow level in the game? Is it like the one in D2?
Sort of but it has more in common with the one in D1
