Does item level even matter before lvl 50?

The 2.0 patch will be out for console later in this year due to its major updates and new game modes etc. 

Can you share a rough estimate as to when? I won't hold you accountable, just to get an idea. And I'd prefer not to be surprised with lots of Fusing left to do, but no more opportunity to do it.

Are you aware that there's a PS4 trophy that requires Fusion? (I have it, but this is certainly relevant to others.)

We will change the unlock criteria for the socketing.

I guess this update hasn’t dropped on console yet? I’m really kind of confused and could use some clarification. Thanks in advance

So according to the patch notes the campaign is supposed to be playable in co-op mode now, well my buddy and I are online and we can’t play the campaign... he has already finished the campaign so the progression factor shouldn’t be an issue. Don’t know if it matters or not but we are playing on PS4. Is anyone else having this problem?

Where can i swap a challenge to a new one? or is this only able when my challenges are "full"?

Love the game, but there was so much going wrong that I had to shelve it for a while, then I read about the 2.0 patch and started getting excited to play again. Is there a timetable for the release of the patch on PS4?
