With patch 5.1.1, there is one new community-requested feature:
-players can now set up custom markers on the map.
Other small updates:
-there is a small improvement for the Hunter class. The Huntsman passive now unlocks chances for animals to give extra bones for hunting dogs, and dogs can also eat meat to heal.
-necromancer tier 6 skeletons can now also be of the sorcerer type.
-player can now tell the beggar follower near Bara to stop following or equip him with gear.
-animal followers will persist after loading the game and can be dismissed.
The patch also brings a few minor bug fixes.
