MMoexp Diablo4 in the message box off

A repetitive message that keeps appearing in Diablo 4's on-screen message box has many players irked. Diablo 4 is Blizzard's latest big hit as the dark fantasy dungeon crawler has garnered huge sales as well as critical praise over the past month since launch. Despite this, there are still some headaches many players wish to see fixed.

Part of Diablo 4's intuitive and stylish user interface is a handy message box on the lower right side of the screen. This box is home to many types of notifications that scroll by during play such as the most recent NPC dialogue, important actions of other nearby players, as well as information regarding the current session, among other things.

One of the many features of Diablo 4 is optional crossplay between different platforms. When this feature is enabled, a message informing the player will pop up in the message box in large yellow text. However, it seems like a recent bug is causing this particular message to repeatedly pop up about every 30 seconds, and players have had enough of it.

Diablo 4 Players Want Changes To The Reroll System

In the Diablo 4 subreddit, user DogBt posted a meme featuring an image of famous Hollywood actor Leslie Nielsen from the comedy film Airplane! mocking the game's repetitive crossplay message with a classic moment from the movie. While the message box doesn't take up too much of the user interface, the bright yellow text of the crossplay message can be distracting for a lot of players, especially every 30 seconds.

Additionally, the spam notification can end up hogging the message box, pushing other more useful information such as NPC dialogue out of view too quickly. Some commenters below the post mentioned that turning off crossplay entirely doesn't seem to stop the rogue message from appearing. Others chimed in noting that one must log out of, and then back into Diablo 4 in order for the change to stick.

Another user under the post mocked a different Diablo 4 message that notifies players of closing the blue portal they used to fast travel into a town upon leaving said town on foot. This large on-screen message can get annoying for players who already know how these portals work, especially since it plasters a large text box on the screen every time instead showing up in the message box off to the side.

While Diablo 4 has been massively successful there are still some changes that are being called for by fans. A lack of more robust social elements in Diablo 4, as well as the annoying "This skill isn't ready yet" pop-up are among some of the pains players wish to see changed. As Diablo 4 is an ongoing live service title, fans wouldn't be wrong to expect to see these issues addressed at D4 materials some point in the near future.
