A player in Diablo 4 recently discovered that their mount's speed is significantly slower when using a controller, as they are unable to utilize the Spur ability. This ability, tied to the player's mouse cursor position on the screen, provides a movement speed boost when PC users move their cursor away from their character. Mounts are an essential means of transportation in Diablo 4, allowing players to swiftly traverse the game's five distinct regions.
Following the global release of Diablo 4, players have encountered various bugs and issues. Xbox and PlayStation owners, in particular, faced a license problem upon entering the game for the first time. Additionally, some players have reported getting stuck on the login screen for an extended period. Fortunately, Blizzard promptly addressed many of these issues before they could cause significant frustration for players.
Diablo 4 players using a controller have discovered that they are unable to stack the Spur ability on their mount. A Reddit user named Competitive-Trade-16 shared a video showcasing how PC users can move much faster with their mount compared to console users. Despite pressing the ability button multiple times, console users are unable to increase their speed in the same way as those using a mouse and keyboard.
In the comments section, console players expressed confusion about why other players' mounts were able to move faster. Some suggested that the difference lies in the ability to click further on the screen, while others believed that the issue lies in the Spur ability not properly stacking with a controller as it does with a mouse and keyboard. It remains to be seen if Blizzard will address and resolve this issue before it sparks widespread complaints.
The Diablo 4 community has voiced their opinions on the game's Reddit page, suggesting several quality of life features that they believe would enhance the gaming experience. These suggestions include a revamped camera system, a separate tab for gems, and map overlays. Additionally, some players have expressed their desire for a permanent timer to be added, which would indicate when World Bosses will spawn.
In response to the community's feedback, Blizzard has confirmed that nightmare dungeons will be made more rewarding, and gems will now be placed in the materials inventory. Furthermore, the next update before Season 1 will bring numerous performance improvements. The developers have also assured Hardcore players that they will not lose their characters due to service issues such as bugs and disconnects.
Diablo 4 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
