Diablo III

[rynnor]

On an unrelated note; liking the gameplay, but fear i must restart as hardcore is calling with it's tempting, bloodraging song

Is that wise with the 'new game' lag?

I didn't understand that bug at all i was giving him shields from the moment i got him never got that bug.

Same, gave him a buckler then made hima kite shield myself, didn't have this problem.....

 

[Deebs]

[Aada]

Clearly you are completely hardcore

This game should have been delayed another 6 months..

Looks like the Auction House doesn't even work as it should and there being no PvP... plus all the launch problems..

They were rushed by a few people it seems

Most games are built around PvP.. not created with PvP thrown on.. when that happens the PvP is shit.

I got my first Legendary Bow, anyone wanna buy for £20?

It would have been shit regardless. Remember that blizzard employ the rule of "best twink wins"...

Most RPGs don't have pvp in any shape or form and the vast majority of MMOs are designed for PvE with the PvP as an afterthought.
The only MMOs with PvP at their core are DAOC, WAR and Guildwars...I suppose Eve too but thats a different thing alltogether.

Personally I was happy with the launch, couldn't log on, tried 20 minutes later and could, then spent the entire evening playing without a problem. I even gave my templar a shield!

Cage for Toht?

 

[CorNokZ]

How much have you earned/spent?

 

[Aada]

Picked up about 60k gold, so far i've used every gold peice on crafting so i'm skint.

 

[Raven]

Same

Though I read earlier that your craft skill transfers to all characters so that should make it a hell of a lot easier later on with alts and whatnot

 

[Deebs]

Cage for Toht?

Hehe, could be I spose

 

[Wij]

Just had two interviews today and could really do with a Diablo blast to chill out but no hardware suitable. Will have to drink instead

Maybe he means the real money auction house that's not yet implemented

Ofcourse the AH will be sh*t, it's the first few days and there's nothing much to sell.

starting to get funky looking armors now :O

 

[Aada]

You taking the piss with how bad ass you look now

What pings are people getting? in the evening it seems to be 200-300 in the day 50-100 ;/

 

[BloodOmen]

its blizz sided lag, everyone is getting it.

 

[Aada]

Just started ACT II noticed the spike in difficulty straight away!

 

[Mabs]

bloodomen : why the 1h+ shield, not DW or 2h ? any reason or just easier ?

 

[Gray]

Just finished Act1 as well, Butcher was a fun fight indeed, knew what to do immediately but still good fun.

I'm confused though, i thought, just like in DiabloII, that the Butcher had stolen something from the Blacksmith in Tristram. I'm sure he had a conversation with me previously the Blacksmith, but nothing dropped for him.

Also, the Auction House/ingame. Does it work for anyone? I searched for some items but found absolutely nothing, i was going to sell some rare items that i got and can't use - But i'd much rather get an idea of the price on the markets before i mess up.

Act2 really that tough though? I didn't have much issue as a barb, except when about 10 mobs would simultaneously gangbang you, which happened a lot mind. Found rend to be quite useful there.

I think Act II just took me by suprise half way through ACT I i wasn't even thinking about what abilities i was using and i hadn't used a single potion, when i got to ACT II though the enemies just seemed to do a lot more damage but yeah i guess that was when you get 10+ on your ass.

 

[pikeh]

Aye those wasps with the shots hurt a bit if your careless and you get jumped by them and a mix of magic/rare packs. Owch!

 

[Zarjazz]

Yeah. Act II bumped up the difficulty. "Immune" ... wtf u mean immune?! That's my best spell !!

BloodOmen, lvl 55? You're sick dude, just sick
