Official Diablo 3 Thread - Its Finally Here!

[vladTGS]

Game's running pretty fine right now i was only kicked out once today and was able to get back in immediately.
I'm at the start of ActIII, Level 25 and haven't got even one Unique item yet, kinda cool but also pisses me off a littel if you know what i mean.... i want my first gooooolden item

@Cyber
I'll send you a PM with a promokey...

Explore more, I'm already at my 3rd unique item and I'm at lvl 11. Annoying thing though, why everytime I log out/quit the game and log back in, the explored area of a map resets itself to the area I currently am(monsters are randomly respawned again)?

[BoyBettaKnow]

Hows everyone finding the game, would someone who has never played a Diablo game before enjoy it? Really on the fence about buying it from Amazon

[Vulgotha]

Witch Doctor is the way to go. Zombie dogs, Acid Storm, Firebomb, Bad Medicine, Piercing the Veil, Zombie Handler, Grasp of the Dead, Soul Harvest, Gargantuan..

You will be a killing machine.

[BoyBettaKnow]

Game is out of stock everywhere! Is it really worth the £44 Blizzard are asking for it directly?

edit:

Just wondering - does this game actually download much when your playing? If i'm somewhere where there is no internet and i play over 3G on my phone does it use up much data? I'm able to play SW:ToR for a few hours over 3G using only a few MB (60/70) or is it more of a connection that just checks your game is legit?

EDIT 2:

took the risk and bought the game. Hopefully i'll like it

I got my first 2 in 15 minutes at the end of act 3, both were kind of crap though

[mooninites]

Took the leap and got it. 10 minutes in i got kicked out and couldn't get back in. Oh will

No time to post.... must kill the Lord of Hate.. damn this game is everything u could wish. Its absolute amazing and very addictive. Anyone who calls him self gamer should give this game a try. I´m very happy what Blizzard have done here again. It feels like a real Diablo game but with so many mini and major upgrades that only seems logical for a game in 2012.
The presentation is absolute astounding, the sound is one of the best i have ever seen in a video game and the replay value is huge cause everything what the games keeps going on are the thousands of thousands random items u can get.
Definitely my personal GOTY2012 so far.

I still cannot play this game at all I even did a complete Windows format because I thought I was having driver corruption but 1 min into Act 1 with my Wizard the game locks up the screen looks like I've pressed PRINT SCREEN and snapped the picture and there's a serious buzzing sound like the music constantly looping really fast. I have to press restart but the PC seems to wait for a few seconds then instead of restarting just shuts down, I have no issues when playing Fable 3 and temps are ok but I am moving my PC tower today but is this a serious game issue or a hardware issue.

Everything is new except my HDD and PSU surely it cant be my power supply but I do have a small doubt it could be

Damn, have you checked your PC technical specifications are up to it? Do you have much room on your main drive left? I'm in the UK and have had no problems with the game. Have you updated your graphics card drivers?

[Nakatomi Uk]

I have 417GB free on my HDD and my drivers are all up to date using the ATi 12.4 drivers I am not sure what it is I'm gonna move my tower today see if it's an overheating issue, I've been looking into a new PSU preferably a Modular one but there £80 each

[Cybertox]

Contact Blizzard customers support or post a thread in the diablo 3 technical support forum.

[Beast of Bourbon]

Try an older ati driver. Blizzard said that the newest drivers are Not supported yet.

Yep, thats how it works, better to not leave until you get to a checkpoint or a way point.

[Nakatomi Uk]

I've tried 12.3 and it locked up with that I've been checking my temps and HWMonitor reports my CPU at 35-40 but I just as of this moment disabled TURBO Boost tech and set all cores to run @3.40ghz temps have dropped to a decent 30-32 idle but need to test under load, I actually got upto the 2nd quest where you go through the barrier and it locked up again.

I am hoping to be getting a new OCZ Mod 750w PSU and a Corsair H80 Liquid cooler for the CPU a few months time I'm looking into a bigger case with bigger fan mounts.

[Minnzy]

Thought this was hilarious

[Nakatomi Uk]

After I removed the AMD 12.4 driver and downgraded to 12.3 all is well I managed to get into the cathedral without any hiccups temps are still ok I loaded D3 and hit the windows key as I had HW Monitor running and average was 40 CPU and 50 GPU

[smiggy]

On to my Nightmare play through, Lvl35 Demon Hunter.

[Beast of Bourbon]

My sorc's level 32 now (start of Act4) DPS ~487.
Feels a little bit overpowered at the moment, the enemies fall like flies

Still haven't found a unique item yet
Did i mention that DiabloIII is awesome?!

Ok finished the game... i'll start on nightmare tomorrow.
What a finale! EPIC

[drbeeper01]

There are only three Diablo games. Hellfire was an expansion pack for the original. Diablo II also had its own expansion pack but neither are considered standalone titles.

[Hitomi]

The game is amazing =)

Diablo 3 is my first of the series and it's really fun =)

[Cybertox]

Is it me or the graphics improved by a lot since the beta?
Btw can you solo bosses or its obligatory to play with a raid of 4 players?

Diablo is played as a single player game with the option to have more people in it, No part of it ever requires a team though it makes it easier

[Beast of Bourbon]

Heh, gotta admit i'm kinda pissed off about the skillsystem atm.
Why can't we distribute attributepoints ourself?
My biggest problem however is that Skills only rely on a high DPS weapon.
As a mage i'll just take a 2hand weapon with huge DPS (AXE, MAUL, SWORD whatever) and my spells automatically do x times more damage
I just equiped a 2H Axe and Disintigrate+Chaos Vortex annihilates everything in my path.

Kinda boring, Blizzard should fix this with a patch asap if you ask me, what were they thinking?

Sorry for ranting but it's a joke really.
