  • Just curious who is going to be playing Diablo 3, I also wondered if anyone had played the Beta and could tell me which Class is the least clicky.
  • I'm sad to say that this is the first Blizzard game I have no interest in playing. Positive word of mouth could convince me otherwise, but playing around with the beta did not impress me.
  • I played the demon hunter in the beta. It was very clicky.

    This is the sort of game I'd wait to play until it was very cheap, and I had a stable of people to do it with. As it's a blizzard game, it'll take approximately ten years to get "very cheap" soooooooooooooo... I'll probably just buy it on a whim on some drunken night and then never play it with anyone. :(
  • Can someone explain to me the appeal of Diablo? Even when Diablo 2 came out all I could do was be bored.
  • Appeal: using frost orb to obliterate 15 goat demons at once in the Arcane Sanctuary on Nightmare.
  • Fuck that. Barbarian jumping over rivers to flatten puny tiki men!
  • Pressing the button that makes your character say "Time to die!" over and over again.

    I'll be playing. Battletag is jordanado, anyone feel free to add me.

    The least click class imo is the witch doctor, just because you do lots of high mana cost burst attacks. But they are all pretty clicky.
  • Mine is pre-loaded. I think I did battletag TriviaHawk, but I can't remember. I'm very tired.

    The appeal of this game is finding a +2 sword of sorrow with +3% dark energy damage to replace your +1 axe of decapitation with +1% gold find and then choosing gems to fill your two sockets.
  • The sole appeal of this game is that the dudes I usually play LoL with all bought copies.
  • TriviaHawk#1894
  • Well I guess ima go get a copy tonight but not play it until afterwork the following day ill post my battletag when i get a chance. Anyone else played some of the other classes? I really loved playing Bowazon in D2 but I think it would just be too much clicking now. I will probably play Witch Doctor and hope that my pets can just do all the work for me.
  • A handful of my coworkers are going to be Mysteriously Absent from work tomorrow.
  • Yeah I have seen quite a bit of that on twitter. But I Just can't afford it right now getting ready to move to a new house.
  • If it wasn't irresponsible I would just quit. Which is fine in the short term, not so much long.

    I wouldn't do it for diablo though, I just need a vacation in general. Which is probably good cause I'll need if it's okay to tag along on Squirrel's trip.
  • My vacation time is blocked out for PAX.
  • Is anyone planning on playing Hardcore? I was kind of disappointed that there wouldn't be a real money auction house for hardcore ladder. As it seemed like the only viable place to actually get paid.
  • VentureJ#1389
  • Feddy#1656 is my battle tag
  • Battletag is Jakevans#1202
  • boy I sure am having fun fighting with Blizzard's servers right now
  • geez forgot about the numbers after the tag.

    i'm jordanado#1197
  • So im pretty glad I managed to dodge all the servers nonsense so far. Last night it took forever to install so the error 37 thing had mostly stopped happening by the time I started playing. I also decided not to take a sick/vacation day so I have missed the servers being garbage today as well. Hopefully they will just be workign when I arrive home from work.
  • Playing Wizard. Frost bolt is a fun skill so far.
  • TheJoel#1576
  • Rhegma#1651
  • Oh, right. NthDegree256#1308

    I, um, played a lot today. And am currently operating on ~4 hours of sleep. Monk is pretty great.
  • Lightning punches and fire kicks? ya, I'm enjoying monk more then the other classes I've played.
  • So does anyone know if the money you pay into upgrading the artisans carrys across your characters or do you have to buy in on each of your characters seperately? I assume since the gold seems to carry over that the artisans do as well?
  • I know the blacksmith upgrades carry over.
  • Don't you guys get a free spawn copy that lets you play the first act, or something? Would people be willing to send two our way, so we can record a video about it?
  • I didn't get one, or at least I don't think I did.
  • I looked it up. It may be that anyone with a battle.net can just get a trial. So, hooray!
  • If that don't work hit me up, I got both of youse
  • Yeah i have 2 extra spawn copies, although bad news upfront spawn copies cannot play multiplayer so you and graz will be playing single player only
  • its really wierd you will be online and other people can talk to you in the ingame chat, but you will be unable to join anyone else game or have them join yours.
  • Uguuu. Well, thanks for the heads up. Guess no Diablo 3 videos for a while. :D
  • Yeah we had a good laugh at my friends expense the other night, because hes still waiting for his collecters edition to arrive in the mail, when we tried to get him to join our game.

    According to this page starter edition players can play with other starter edition players.

    GAME'S BACK ON. GIMME DEM KEYS.
  • oh cool, thats pretty awesome, if you havent gotten any by the time I get home (almost 3 hours from now) I will certainly give you mine.
  • Gotta love the random DC from a game I was playing by myself.
  • Is it not possible to hack the mandatory server check out of the single-player game?
  • It is always possible to do this, but it will take a while. Also you can't play with your friends, ever. So that takes a lot of fun out of it.
  • Perhaps they'll come up with a trainer that lets you toggle the connection. I'd be furiously refreshing MegaGames right about now if I owned the game.

    Also, and maybe I'm in the minority, but I played Diablo 2 multiplayer probably twice, and I had multiple L50+ characters. I almost installed it to play single player again the other day.
  • Finally back to civilization, where internet is faster than dial-up.

  • let me know if you need those codes dave ill put them in my bag when i leave for work tomorrow
  • I hooked him up
  • Diablo 3 servers down! I will just sit here clicking on random icons and imagine they are evil goat-men. It is basically the same as playing.
  • Just play Minesweeper but try not to care about winning or losing. You have just entered the world of Diablo!
  • Is there any way to quick swap between attack setups? This only being able to use one main/secondary attack at a time is kinda lame. I mean, why would I use any main attack other then teleporting lightning punches.
  • I think you can only change them when you level up. The lightening punches and the phoenix kick are the only combo I use. Although it is super fun to make airplane sounds while running through packs of enemies twirling your staff.
