Today my brother and I on our way to my mother's house stopped by Tim Horton's to grab some treats. I dared him to use the quick chat sounds from Diablo 2 when he ordered.

I'm not sure if the drive-thru lady knew that, "Thanks. Thank you. Thanks." was ever so funny. He even passed over my Iced Capp. and said, "This is for you."

Good times in Diablo hype land.

The instanced loot is why I'm not going barb. Everyone gets their own loot you say? No reason for me to be standing next to the boss then.

Happy 10 000 Posts, Diablords.

DIE! Time to die!

Are people really upset about that... I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

yep here: http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-character-profiles-coming-soon

Go to the last paragraph where it starts "Numerous game journalists...and so on"

This seems like an improvement.

It is an improvement, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

This is great, ha ha. I imagined it in the Barbarian's voice.

However, once you drop loot from you inventory everyone can see it.

Guaranteed someone in this thread is going to accidentally drop something good thinking nobody else can see it and get it stolen.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

10000 replies and not even Monday yet. I think this game might be a bit anticipated.

I know I'll still be guilty of spam clicking drops

Happened in the beta to someone I was co-opping with. He dropped an item, and someone else snatched it up. Not one second later "GIVE ME BACK MY ITEM MAN!"

Other guy just laughed and logged out.

3/4 of those are Yoshi.

Lol! That will teach him not to drop items.

 

[Majine]

Actually 9.58% excluding this post.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Actually 1/10th is actually Yoshis. Think about that.

 

[Rumble19]

I've managed to keep my hype down to manageable levels but now that we are this close I am off the walls waiting for this game.

What happens if you're overburdened and you try and pick it up? Does the action of automatically dropping it (because it doesn't fit in your inventory) means it's shown to others?

 

[scy]

Oh man, I'm almost 5% of the posts in this thread ... :|

HOLY CRAP!

BREAKING NEWS.

When in the Diablo III Skill planner click on the gem on the bottom of the screen!

Enjoy

Speaking of losing items, did they ever fix body popping? Basically if you died people would just go throw random items all over your corpse and if you picked up one of the items and then clicked your corpse all your items would pop out. Shit was annoying .

 

[ThatStupidLion]

if i'm level 10 playing with a level 60 will the drops be skewed more toward me or him? or is it based on who ends up killing the monster?

I don't believe so, but I can't be certain.

I'm around 3.5%

yoshi is in a whole different class.

You don't leave a corpse in Diablo 3.

Drops are dependent on the enemy killed, not the levels of people involved.

Edit: Though I suppose killing blow determines who's Magic Find% is used.

 

[Riggs]

Put your feelings in 1 gif format how you see your first time playing the game will be. Mine is:

Either this

Or this (because I will be so hyped I will need to enter lethal combat)
changed since neogaf can't handle shit!!!! <3 jk

That's okay, Yoshi will get 1000 posts before you get to 500 lol

EDIT: Just checked the list. Spoke too soon

Nice, it's just random I assume?

Corpse runs suck, any game that has them pisses me off. Looking at you everquest...

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Or this http://i.minus.com/iLs8ADcqbYzyK.gif(because I will be so hyped I will need to enter lethal combat)

I've heard that gif is banned. I may not be right, but you might want to remove it.

Ah okay, tried to keep mostly in the dark on almost everything wasn't aware of this!

 

[Raide]

Based on difficulty, so the drops would be based around you, since nothing would drop in Normal that he needs.

 

[oneils]

Yeah, I think so.

Click, Click, Click, Click. I have something to click until launch! Woot!

 

[Yaboosh]

Do more total items drop when in a party than when solo? So for instance, if four items drop when you are solo, would each player get four items in the same instance in a group or would they each get one item?

Mass raid wipes leading to huge corpse runs for hours were the best part of vanilla EQ raiding!

hahahahaha fuck you PoH/PoF

 

[Rokam]

One more question, are mobs going to have resistances or can I focus on a certain type of damage?

 

[Majine]

Wait, why?

Well more drops but what you yourself end up seeing should be about the same. I think your magic drop rate is increased however.

 

[scy]

I assume that an enemy that drops four items drops four items for each person in the game.

One more question, are mobs going to have resistances or can I focus on a certain type of damage?

They still have resistances.

I used to play an MMO that had timed D-Pile exclusivity. After like 10 minutes, anyone could pick your crap up. This led to people aggroing mobs and letting them kill you, then coming back to stand on your corpse pile until the ten minutes had transpired, while you stood right next to them begging for them to get off your d-pile.

Shit was jokes.

Spoiler

SHIT WAS NOT JOKES

 

[Raide]

At low levels? Probably not. Maybe a few in the higher acts. The higher difficulty you get more abilities and stuff will be added to monsters, especially the Rare and Champion packs.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

Fortunately resistances won't be like d2 where monsters are completely immune to damage from that element, which was a dumb mechanic and prevented some builds from even playing chaos sanc (unless you had a godly merc). They're just going to be resistant but you can still do dmg to them.

 

[Vodh]

Narrowed my choice down to DH and Barb, it's going to be a hard decision...

Really? Why it's so fake lol.

right, but what about MF? i guess i should have included that in my question >_< whewps.

I think some will be resistant to the point that damage done via that resistance will be futile. In Hell/Inferno anyway. If something is 90% resistant to fire, and you're doing fire damage, 10% damage isn't going to be enough DPS to survive.

 

[injurai]

Really? Why it's so fake lol.

probably something to do with the "parent over shoulder" scenario, but ya it's really fake looking.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I'm in the same boat! I'm leaning toward Demon Hunter but less people are picking Barb and it does look fun as fuck, so it's tough.

That and permanent stats/skills were my two least favorite parts about D2.

 

[Raide]

Well, if you are with someone 60 and you know them, they will probably just trade you the items they get. I dunno if Blizzard will prevent 60's meeting with low level and just boosting them through the levels. Probably the xp won't share over a certain amount. Not sure!
