What the unholy hemorrhaging fuck. I got removed from the game midway through the end of Act 1 and 2 FMVs, and now at the end of Act 3 at the little in-game cutscene happening at the end I get booted again. Seriously killing me here.

And now after I restarted, when I get most of the way through the Act 3 ending FMV, I get removed from the game again. Way to completely deflate any impact of these story beats on my first playthrough.

Update my death to softcore please.

All 3 on Inferno Act 2, near the end of it

3 of them

1 is just pure skill, running on blue gear
1 is geared up, maybe 2-3 sub-bosses back
1 is a charity driven team, very secretive

Which one is the skillbased one? Because from what I can tell, both kripparrian and methods team employ the following tactic, which I'd not in a million years call skillbased:

Step 1: Skip all trash, and run straight to objectives without killing mobs because they can't kill them yet.

Step 2: Then when on unavoidable boss fight, proceed to beat it by bruteforcing it thanks to the ressing mechanic with absolutely no penalty.

Step 3: "Progressing" in inferno.

Silly as hell if you ask me.
 
Act 2 minor spoiler

All I could think during the first cinematic with the emperor was King Jeoffrey's face lol.... My god I want to punch that kid lol
 
every time I get hit by a Dalyn ice-bomb I lose my connection :(
 
Well... while the servers down I was productive. I made an AutoHotkey script that starts the launcher, launches the game, and then logs in. :p

Yeah there are.. wipes every few seconds on Method's. But they have their moments.
 
So how does the quest selector thing work? If I'm interpreting it right, it reverts to a save file from when I began that quest? As-in, all the items/levels/etc that I got after that quest will be gone? Or does it just put me back at that point in the game with everything intact?

Have they killed any of the "big" bosses without having to resort to spamming resses throughout the fight? It's such a cheap way to do it, and I hope blizzard changes it.

Just puts you back there with your CURRENT gear/lvls/etc
 
This latency is ridiculous, and you know it means they don't have enough servers. Because it was running just fine earlier this morning when people were at work and school.

I'm from Panama and i'm getting 400-600ms and spikes of 1k ms, bruteforced it and finished it in Normal but its a pain in the ass and a torture, and this server downtime didn't fix anything....

jesus, what the fuck

i dont care THAT much about the always online bs, but if that means the game is only playable for those near a server then what the flying fuck, blizzard

this is just baffling, make a game just for those in the US or the big EU countries, GG Blizzard.
 
The Chef said:
Cool, I'll probably do that then.
Will it add extra stress to my CPU/Graphics Card if keep my laptop closed and use an external cinema display?
Click to expand...

The answer is NO. Absolutely no, there will be no more stress, unless you know for a fact that the machine was specifically designed to draw air in through the keyboard.

btw, what CPU/GPU do you have?
 
Ugh, I keep getting kicked out of the game. And if you try to log out with no connection it sit at a black screen forever.
 
Monk People! What builds are you using? I have no idea what I like the best out of all my skills, so I'm asking you guys what you're all using!

Its high for everyone right now for some reason. So I think something strange is going on.
 
Lol... this just keeps getting worse and worse.

They kick you off the game if you idle too long? Fucking Christ...
 
Nearing the end of the first act. Game's starting to get so great, new spells, new more beautiful terrain, neat enemies, great music. Loving it, but goddamnit, this fucking disconnect every 30-40 minutes! What in the world.

Well it's a skill if you think about it, bruteforce/zombie zerg rush to your hearts content
At least Kripps was fun at the insta-deaths, wish there was a death count going LOL

Oh all these teams are gonna hit a wall pretty soon, no point in damaging a boss for 5k, when it has HP in the millions who also decimates in you in 1-2 hits LOL

Gear will be needed, mostly Legendary+ from the looks of it, then team work, then right pair of abilities, and then the skill to maximize the potential of it
 
Maybe its my old sound card thats causing the sound to be so low or something? Have an old Audigy SE (probably should've upgraded long ago...need to visit PC thread)...but i'm not sure if thats contributing to the fact that I have to max out my PC volume just to hear the music at a decent level.
 
Latency for me has consistently been between 250 and 500 ms. Which is too much. When it creeps up toward the 500's, it really starts affecting your performance.
 
It sure would be great if I could play this for more than ~20 minutes without being booted back to the main menu.
 
How do you play the Monk effectively (solo and/or coop) ?

I'm only in Act 1 @ lvl 15 and having a hard time killing mobs of Elites and those walking trees. Can't properly hit The Butcher.

Been using the Cyclone, Crippling Wave, Lashing Kick. Some rare monk weapon + shield.

Am I doing it wrong gaf?

It's starting to piss me off. Yesterday was understandable as my 'net was down for most of the day and when it did return I was getting terrible speeds (~50KBps), but now it's fine and yet I still can't play the bloody game.

At this rate my Barb will be level 60 before the end of Act 1. :p

I have had success using two one-handed weapons as a Monk so far. More so than when I tried a one hand and a shield or a two handed weapon.
 
Just wrapped act 1 with about 8 hours in and I am at level 17. Is this a good level to move into act 2 with. I've also had a total of 4 yellow drops in act one and one yellow wand for sale at a vendor.
 
I just spent the last 30 minutes trying to play, mostly unsuccessfully. I'd get about 5 minutes in, then lag real bad and get booted back to the character select. Then after that happened about 4 times, I'd get booted back to login.

I was begining to wonder if my net connection was the problem, but after coming in here I see that's probably not the case. :/

blind, roundhouse, heal, 7 way attack all seem pretty good for groups.
