Let me start by saying that was the biggest pile of crap I've been too and I genuinely feel sorry for those who travelled all over Europe etc... to attend. I felt robbed by travelling 2 hours.
First off the website told us we would be getting exclusive footage, cosplay, giveaways, developer insight and everyone who attended would receive a unique collectible item.
What actually happened was:
When queueing we were given a Diablo and Kaiju skin code and a pair of cheap 50p sunglasses along with a beer token. So some awful sunglasses is what they call a unique collectible? Everyone around me just laughed.
So took my free drink token, it was either red/white wine, Carlsberg bottle or coke. The plastic cups stunk and all you could taste was the coating of the cup on the drink, in the bin it went.
The event it's self was garbage, trailer was good but the rest was crap. There were some amazing cosplay but they were barely shown, why not do a competition and give 3 winners prizes, I mean the effort they put in was immense. Also how many awkward times did he ask, take you long get dressed? is it heavy? I mean common...
Dev insight was basically asking them do you like your job, isn't the crowd awesome! How indepth. Probably for the best as could hardly here what they were saying as the sound was about 2 second ahead of the videos.
Then we go onto a 40 min EDM session in a room with terrible acoustics, I'm there for a game and not to listen to that ****e from someone nobody had heard of.
Why not use that 40 mins to do a Q&A panel with devs, a proper cosplay competition, some half decent giveaways.
Then once the EDM session was over, everyone walked back to the mainstage thinking there was more, instead all we got after 10 mins of standing around waiting was. "Thanks for coming"

Anyone up for a few games tonight, get on voice comms.
I don't have Facebook but will have to set one up for the mount.
It was crap and so poorly done for such a big company.

Yeah I don't care if we aren't elite and win every game, the game is instantly more fun playing with a few people.
Is there a new patch coming or patch notes? Matchmaking still needs a he'll of a lot of work

Mine patched this morning.
Heroes and Talents
Implemented an additional fix to further resolve an issue that could cause Rehgar players to permanently lose control of their Hero after coming under the effects Anub’arak’s Web Blast.
Erik will no longer become permanently cloaked upon respawning after learning the Spy Games Talent while dead.
User Interface
Hero League and Team League levels should now fit more appropriately within Player Portrait borders across several aspects of the out-of-game menus.
