Diablo III

[pikeh]

nice temporary outage of battle.net servers xD

 

[Aada]

got to T&C twice and each time after scrolling down and clicking accept it booted me ;/

 

[Keitanz]

hahahah

People moan at EA when the same thing happens..

Both companies should be doing a LOT better.

Due to high concurrency the login servers are currently at full capacity. This may cause delays in the login process, account pages and web services.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience while this is being resolved.


roughly translated into "we didnt do fuck all during the stress test"

 

[Aada]

Anyone in yet?

 

[BloodOmen]

nope

 

[pikeh]

nah, got error 75's a lot, and also saying that my login credentials are incorrect! hah, pretty much what I expected tbh.

 

[Aada]

Standard launch of a multimillion dollar online title then?

Yep!

 

[Aada]

Server status page shows EU servers offline? only Asia is online atm.

 

[Aada]

Off to bed no way in hell am i sitting here smashing my password 100 times a minute while the wife behind me is calling me a sad little cunt lol

Good luck to those of you staying up.

 

[Shagrat]

Lol

 

[LordjOX]

Yeah no point waiting up for this, gn

 

[Keitanz]

I can only imagine the emotions BloodOmen is going through atm.

I just realized that there is no bower or amazon in the game.. Wow now I feel really shit about it Loved the rouge and amazon chars from the first two games! And don't tell me the demon hunter is the same, because it is not!

No Eaglehorn or Windforce! What a bummer

Got in, got to L2, laptop decided it wanted to go to bed. Will need to play when I'm actually awake to get use to it.. Rolled a monk o_o

 

[Gray]

Yeah got in just past 12, upto level 5-6ish now.

Love it already, bit dull playing it on your own but least i can get to grips with it, will probably put in another couple of hours tomorrow i think before and after work. Barbarian is fun, plus i'm picking up all the random gear which does seem to do nice damage overall.

I'm wondering though, if there a place to buy portals etc so that you can leave zones and head back to town, don't want to get into the middle of somewhere only to relise i'm stuck.

 

[pikeh]

fucking awesome game. Lvl 8 monk atm, absolute class, the combat is so tactile!

Re; TP;

Spoiler

You get the town portal ability after killing a certain boss, play through the story a bit

 

[BloodOmen]

Been playing all night... no spoilers tho i will say this the bosses arent what you will expect, i shit bricks when i seen the butcher and when i seen belial xD

Installed, updated, character created, off to get ready for work. It's going to be a loooong day.

 

[Deebs]

So worth the wait then guys?

I had a run around and got to lvl3 but pretty much the same here.

good first impressions though, it's retained that good old diablo feel

got home last night, loaded the new client, d/l was done around launch, shut down computer and went to bed. Tested that it works this morning with "testes" baba, happy on result and now sitting at work. bored. Waiting. Hoping....

These guys say it best;

You mean they're still playing the Tristram music?

 

[Killswitch]

Got it downloaded overnight and installed this morning. Day of work and then I'm gonna roll....something. I've not read any of the pre-release stuff so I have no idea about the classes or anything. Should be interesting.

The only shitty thing is that I'm off to Romania for work for two weeks on Sunday, how's that for timing?

 

[old.Tohtori]

You mean they're still playing the Tristram music?

Best bit about installing that right there

 

[Sar]

The Tristram music is the most recognisable in the game

But yeah, definitely worth the wait tbh. Playing through as a Barb first, then a Monk. I'll leave the magic classes to last methinks.

 

[old.Tohtori]

I would've taken you as a demonhunter kind of player Sar

 

[Aada]

Awesome game just awesome it's not 100% stable though a few times i've been disconnected forcing me to replay the dungeon im in from the start

Also don't do MP on your first playthrough for some reason everyone is an impaitent bastard and wants to blaze through the levels/lore/characters before you can blink.
