I dont usually post here but i have been playing this game since launch and i have NEVER seen a bug like this before.

I was streaming and was going to power level a friend who had died on hardcore and when i added him from my clan to my list, my characters name and clan name had changed to korean from english, her armor looked different and also my pet and banner changed completely. also my paragon was different. it almost looked like i was getting hacked?? but it happened twice after adding people to my friends list.

Something that might make a difference, im still using windows 7 and i need to probably update my whole system, i wonder if my older os is causing this???

We’re looking into this issue and wanted to ask if you can share:

  • D3Debug.txt (via pastebin)
  • Steps to reproduce (if you can reproduce)

Thank you in advance!

Late last week a fix was implemented to address the name-change issue players have been sharing here. If you’ve been encountering this issue still, please share a post here. We really appreciate your patience on the matter!
