looks like it based on what? :lol:

Hard to believe that S15 could break the record. Next record breaker will prolly be Sigma or other big patch if there will be any. But lets see what happens, good thing is Server could easily handle that ammout of traffic so let it happen again :)

S15 will bring:
1. corpse recovery
2. Three completely new areas with Ubers reworked (Western Kingdoms, Kehjistan, Wastelands).
3. Changes with 50+ skills and some Oskills (some skills expected to be strong back again).

Mind it's just my opinion and reasoning is this:
Few days before MXL 2017 patch release there was some advertising made (video on youtube, info on d2 sites etc). There was many new players, even if they played only for few weeks there is a high chance they will come back and they can bring new players with them.
Also v1.1 looks more balanced & polished, and those who didn't enjoy previous patch might wanna give it another try.

PS. About Servers capacity: There was hard time with some servers at the beginning (although it has been taken care of pretty fast) and there was server crash that caused some players to lose their chars and rollback was needed, but after that situation has stabilised and if you were on a good server it felt almost like SP 8-) I hope this time it will go smooth as well.
