There is currently an intermittent issue where some users are unable to log into Battle.net. We are currently investigating, and as we will provide updates as we receive additional information.

Updated: 12:23 PM PDT

I'm happy to announce that maintenance has ended and you can now log into the game.

Happy adventuring, heroes!

Good Morning, everyone!

We are currently deploying patch 2.0.3. However, we encountered some issues which have delayed its release. To ensure these issues are resolved swiftly and thoroughly, today's maintenance has been extended. At this time, we anticipate maintenance will conclude and the game will be available at approximately 1:00 P.M. PDT. We'll be keeping you updated if that schedule should change.

Thanks again as always for your patience, and we look forward to seeing you in Sanctuary![source]http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/12032363198#1[/source]
