I bet they will blame the 1% packet loss over 330+ Packets! and i also bet they will say your ISP is no good and you got to do some PC tweaks because everything you own to play this game… is shit now

Your Welcome

I play Dota 2 and WOW with no issues

Yes, i also play Dota, CSGO, WoW, CoD, World of Tanks, League of Legends, 7 days to die, Eve Online, and alot of other steam games.

but ONLY diablo 3 has this issue. no other game.

It’s been 5 days and still can’t play more then 10 min pls do something already

I have the same problem eu server, I get error 1060 and game still plays online background of this error message that forces me to quit game. It’s not my internet connection every other game plays without any issues and I have played diablo 3 from the launch date without problems… this problem started to happen to me in season 22.

Blizzard will NEVER get this fixed and at the end they will loose So many players.

OK if I am playing by myself in a private game I can go for a about 10 15 min before ERROR but if I am in a public game is less then a 1min

Having the same problem, from SA. I have partially migrated my game to the US servers.

If you have the same, swap to the US. That works for me.

To any fellow RSA D3 players:

Update on this problem: I am now using a VPN service, after being advised in another post: Error 1016 Can't login - #12 by FrozT-2504 , and have has absolutely NO 1016 problems since.

If you are also on the EU server, my advice in this regard is to look for a provider that suits your needs and budget constraints, and make use of it

I am currently using proton VPN, which has a true free service available.
