Anyone else looking forward to it?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Played it until the servers went down for maintenance about an hour ago lol.
 
Yep, I'm holding out until after exams (1 month), and I'm sure there'll be a few bugs and server outages so I won't be missing too much, I hope! :P

No...there's nothing to see here...move along please...keep studying...:rolleyes:
 
How was the 1 hour you played? I wanted to avoid the "new online game" thing (errors with the server etc) and also see how that auction-house crap panned out before getting it. So far my opinion of it is "Diablo 3: The quest for more money", but who knows.

Oh it was a good 3-4 hours before the servers went down. They were back up about an hour later. So far I have enjoyed it. Gameplay is very smooth and your character reacts very well, not much lag that I could see.
 
Gross. Guild Wars 4 lyfe.
 
I wish, my laptop woulnd't be capable of running it at full power.

I've been wanting to get a good desktop for awhile now, but I just don't have the money. ( I'm 15 ) Therefore I'm not allowing myself to get Diablo III yet );

I probably could run it on my laptop just fine, but I don't know. I will probably end up buying it and seeing if it will run.

Yes. I plan to spend all of my free time killing monsters Korean style ~~!
 
I'm not going to buy a single-player game that depends on an internet connection and server status.

I often find myself without a connection. How am I meant to play it then? Damn Blizzard, screwed up Starcraft II with that rubbish and now Diablo 3! :(
 
Not to say anything bad about it or anything, I'm sure it's a great game, but I try to stay well away from games rated M. :smile:

There's probably a demo or the beta you could download and try to run to check before you purchase it.

Yes, the game comes with around 4 guest passes. You can give the code to a friend who can download the client and use the code to play up to the first major boss for free. Jbmiller if you want one just send me a PM.

Yo Greg, I don't know about Diablo 3, but I have starcraft 2 and you CAN play it WITHOUT an internet connection. You can do single player campaign and skirmishes just fine, you just can't battle online is all.

I may just have to check that out with SCII. I heard that you may play it offline, but not with your usual account, only a "guest" account. Although i'll have to look this up to be sure.
