Forehead Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Still never beat the original, though I long ago stopped trying and moved on to other games, as well as other things in life. I remember getting to about two-three levels from the bottom, and running into a hoard of walking red demons that could throw or breath fire/lightning, I can't remember which. Anyway, I wound up trying to fight like 12 of them at once and got slaughtered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger187126 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 bunch of nerds in here... in other news if you downloaded it from blizzard you can install it, but still can't launch it until 12am PST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorPickSix Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I'm finally seeing improvements in my SC2 play (Gold/Diamond level with Zerg), so I'm worried if I buy this game I'll play less SC2 and go back to sucking lol. Going to wait and see how good Diablo III is beore I decide whether or not to shell out for the money. I played Diabo II a bit in middle school.

Mr. Sinister Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I've never played this game (er, series), though I've always been fascinated by the imagery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btubes18 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Going to pick up a copy on the way home from work today. We will see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger187126 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 and the servers are down again. i managed to squeak past the point where beta dropped you off and then it shut down and it looks like an hour or so of down time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Thinking of leaving work early. How bad are the servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyskinsfan56 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Thinking of leaving work early. How bad are the servers? I wouldn't bother leaving early. They'll probably be like this for a few days...up/down/up/down. Another fine game launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Ah I guess all the little kids coming home from school are clogging up the servers now. Dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another fine game launch. it's a shame considering how well game launches in general have been. all these MMO's have been launching quite well lately, but this is what blizzard gets for having always online DRM.

GhostofSparta Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I had to work today, and I have a softball game tonight at 6. I'm gonna pick up a copy on my way home and install it. I might even play a little if the servers are done being ****ed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradeTheBeal! Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Got a couple of hours in and it was most excellent. Servers down til 630 EST or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 If anyone is mid 20's (I was sick from work today and got some solid PT in) and wants to play when they come back up, add me... Madman#1655 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Taze Me Bro Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 how many players online at a time? Is it set-up like the first one where you just join a game? Is there a single player mode or just online? edit: Also, I just purchased it, its downloading and it says my order is queued........so how long till they process and send the code so I can play when its done downloading?

KDawg Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 It's all online. Only 4 people per game. You can play alone and make it a private game or open it. No idea about the queue. I just beat Normal difficulty. Home sick from work and I got the game in. I like it a lot. Level 30 barb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kindred Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 is there a monthly fee to play online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 is there a monthly fee to play online? Nope. Completely free after you pay the initial $60. It's not really an MMO like WoW. The world is fairly linear and based around basically grinding quests. I got to around level 9, killed Skeleton King before calling it quits. I do have to say, the game is much tougher now than it was in beta. I actually died to a couple elite packs and Skeleton King almost killed me(thank god I have a heal spell as I was playing a Monk).

GhostofSparta Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Dammit. Tried to install it last night, but I have an older laptop and my video card is unsupported by the game. Now I have to find a new video card and wait for that before I can play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btubes18 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Played to level 10 last night and created a Hardcore (HC) character. Going to hopefully play some later tonight on the HC guy, should be interesting. I find it a lot more fun that if you die, your character is dead for good.

I don't find that fun, especially with the lag surges and the iffy at best server functionality so far. Lag kills you, you're done. Waste of a lot of time. But good luck.
