Support NeoGAF

[Riggs]

I'm on my knees right now.

I'm begging that D3GAF will become successful. A community - ... no, a family! A family that I can trust. A family I can share my problems with. A family that loves.

I am here for you, and for everyone else. We must unite as one.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Two things:

1) The link is broken now :-/
2) I do no have a folder called 'ProgramData' inside my C:/. I didn't find a b.net folder inside Program Files or Programs Files x86 (I'm running Windows 7. Anyone know where to find the files I need to delete?

Its a hidden folder.

 

[chris-013]

Not looking great. According to the specs, it has a GMA 4500MHD. It might run D3 at its lowest but I am not sure what performance you would get.

Unsupported GMA 4500MHD !

 

[Yaboosh]

What about experience gained? Will there be a /players command for those of us that like to solo but want more of a challenge and more experience gained?

Anybody know this? If Diablo III lacks a /players command, I will be pretty disappointed.

 

[Sothpaw]

A Hammerdin would scoff at Inferno!

Blizz wants Inferno to be hard for all classes so Paladins can't be in D3.

Anybody know this? If Diablo III lacks a /players command, I will be pretty disappointed.

No /players.

Looks like you need a 3-day ban to calm you down.

 

[Sophia]

May I be added to the battletag list? Sophia#1244, North American realms, and probably playing a Barbarian.

Worth trying just in case but don't hold any hope.

Use the search to find the battle.net folder in your OS drive, I'm pretty sure ProgramData is a hidden folder.

 

[~Kinggi~]

So soundtracks and videos and such has made its way to the nets.

 

[Calidor]

no need either. XP is scaled the opposite this time. (It lowers per monster with more players)

 

[Raide]

AVOID!

 

[Yaboosh]

Really? That seems weird. Huh, that is cool I guess.

You don't need an artificial challenge when the game is already challenging.

Does that make you the extra creepy uncle?

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Difficulty info should probably be added to OP. it gets asked like twice a page.

It is in there, though not explained exactly explicitly. (Under Replayability.)

And for any questions in general: Read the OP before posting.

It contains most everything you need to know.

I also updated it maybe a half hour ago (as I've been catching up on this thread) with the EU installer stuff.

 

[scy]

You don't need an artificial challenge when the game is already challenging.

But what if you want even more of a challenge?

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Bah, I've tried doing the sigil thing on 2 browsers and no go.

BAH

 

[Raide]

But what if you want even more of a challenge?

That is what Hell and Inferno is for. Any more than that? You crazy girl!

 

[Filth]

heres a link to my level 30 dh build. what do you guys think?

 

[Sothpaw]

Looking through the gear on the official site, I don't see any "unique" items. Are legendary items the unique items now?

So is it:
Normal
Magic
Rare
Set/Legendary

?

 

[HoodWinked]

But what if you want even more of a challenge?

hardcore mode.

 

[Dresden]

But what if you want even more of a challenge?

Play it on a laptop strapped to your chest as you run naked through the poorer parts of town?

 

[Svafnir]

Looking through the gear on the official site, I don't see any "unique" items. Are legendary items the unique items now?

So is it:
Normal
Magic
Rare
Set/Crafted/Legendary

?

Yes! ... Unless I am wrong >.> I think that's how it is.

 

[hitsugi]

No experience change. This was actually a very smart move as many people in D2 would just load 8 player private games for the experience and... eventually it was rather difficult to find active games (if you weren't joining bot games or played Classic HC)

 

[Raide]

Thinking Caltrops + Torturous Ground might be a better option.

 

[IceMarker]

Normal
Magic
Rare
Set
Legendary

Yes, and the reason they're not called unique anymore is because they actually have a few random attributes now, where as uniques had all set stats and attributes, according to the very few item spoilers I've witnessed from the Brady Guide.

 

[scy]

Challenge accepted!

 

[Yaboosh]

I like this. I like this very much.

I am also seeing that you can actually pause the game if you are alone? That is a good thing too.

 

[Sophia]

Yeah you could pause the game if you were solo by hitting escape in the beta. The game outright warns you when hitting escape un a multiplayer game that it is NOT paused.

Ah that makes sense. Much better to have random properties.

 

[injurai]

The wait for D3 is making me more responsible about things. Other than this thread I have stopped caring about other forms of entertainment. Now I'm getting stuff done around the house. It feels weird, I fear that I will regress come launch.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Wonder when reviews will start coming in.

 

[HoodWinked]

town portal needs to be instant.

 

[injurai]

town portal needs to be instant.

nope

well I do miss the old way, but It just wouldn't work with how things have been designed. Its for the better trust me.

 

[Raide]

town portal needs to be instant.

Why? Its basically the WoW Soulstone + portal back.

 

[99%]

town portal needs to be instant.

Instant is not hardcore enough.

 

[Sophia]

town portal needs to be instant.

*facepalm*

OH SHIT I GOT IN OVER MY HEAD PORT OUT Safe! No chance of dying here!

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

town portal needs to be instant.

That's stupid. It would remove all challenge from the game, being able to escape any time you please.

 

[Rogerkiller]

does anybody knows when amazon uk start shipping the game?

 

[scy]

Just to join in on the Level 30 builds: Monk and Demon Hunter.

 

[red731]

Chuck Testa.

 

[Yaboosh]

Changing the Mana to different names for different characters is kind of stupid.

 

[Data West]

Changing the Mana to different names for different characters is kind of stupid.

Less stupid than calling energy resources 'mana' even though they all act differently.

 

[Raide]

Changing the Mana to different names for different characters is kind of stupid.

Yea, because Barbarians using Mana made so much sense!

 

[chris-013]

heres a link to my level 30 dh build. what do you guys think?

I don't really like your use of the passive "Cull of the weak" with elemental arrow. I think slow for 1 sec is not enough.

 

[Dresden]

Spirit-based Witch Doctor, lvl30

 

[Jako]

Changing the Mana to different names for different characters is kind of stupid.

Each resource is different, I find it interesting, not stupid.

 

[Raide]

Each resource is different, I find it interesting, not stupid.

Correct. It suits each class and adds something way more interesting than just chugging Mana pots.

 

[TheYanger]

Changing the Mana to different names for different characters is kind of stupid.

Not only is it better flavor as mentioned, but you realize that ONLY the witch doctor functionally has it the same as D2 mana right? and for that reason, he still has....MANA.
