Support NeoGAF

[Dineren]

I'm really tempted to take tomorrow off. I'm not even a big Blizzard fan, but I had a blast playing the beta and the hype has taken hold of me. Only problem is it won't be delivered until probably around noon. I should have gone digital instead of getting the CE.

8.0

8.0... how fucking dare they!

 

[isny]

Alright, still have a couple of guest passes available and a couple of full retail CD keys available at cost. Just shoot me a PM for either.

Each retail copy includes three guest passes and a pad of D3 note paper btw =D

 

[Tunic]

Could somebody post a class count from the GAF list, please?

Roughly going off of the GAF list with the latest updated these are the counts I am getting:

Barbarian: 59
Demon Hunter: 54
Monk: 50
Witch Doctor: 34
Wizard: 56

I did not know about this....the last time I was able to dye armor was in DAoC

That is pretty sweet. I didn't know about that either. Man my hype is kicking into full gear now.

Jay Wilson said this on Twitter about DarkD3:

"TOS against mods is so we can ban cheaters. I agree DarkD3 is not a cheat...yet. As long as it is not a cheat, no ban is likely."


huh.

Oh. That's not the quote I saw someone else post in here.

what is Dark3D? some kind of graphics tweak for d3? I tried google searching but only saw people talk about it, no file or anything.

 

[FINALBOSS]

Maybe he clarified since everyone was going ape shit over not being able to use it?

 

[RPGCrazied]

Install complete. But it won't let me change resolutions:

I'm on a iMac. Any ideas?

Wait. The game doesn't have FSXAA or whatever it was in the beta? A lot of the time forcing AA in the CCC control panel sometimes doesn't work for me.

 

[windz]

My copy of D3 just arrived, YAY FUTURE SHOP. And a Diablo 3 t-shirt arrived at the same time too. Sweet.

And now I wait.

Basically it's the bees knee's if the default moving painting ie blurriness gives you headaches.

 

[zlatko]

I have the worst pain ever right now. My right buttcheek/hip/lower back area on the right no matter how I sit, feels like something is being pulled then ripped, and there's one point in particular that feels like I'm being stabbed by a hot poker.

FML...

makes the game darker/grittier.

 

[fluffydelusions]

argh wish I could add some gaffers to my friends list to kill some time. Is D3 the only place you can add people via battletag so far?

8.0

An 8.3, with 8.0 in "Lasting appeal". Bet they change that this time.

Spoiler

For those in the dark, that's the Diablo 2 review.

 

[TheExodu5]

My subtle Diablo 3 IQ/color improvement filter

Using the D3 sharpness filter that was going around for a while, I tweaked it so that it wouldn't create major sharpening artifacts or ruin the UI. In its configured state, it should just tweak the colors slightly and counteract the bluriness introduced by the post process AA filter in the game.

Note: I have not yet tried Dark D3, so can't say whether one or the other will provide superior results at this point.

 

[Kerub]

Help, I can't decide what class to play! ;_;

 

[chiablo]

8.0... how fucking dare they!

For the same reason Jim Sterling will probably give Diablo 3 a sub 5.0 score.
Controversial scores = page hits = money.

It does have AA it's just not on that screenshot because it has been cropped. The AA box would be on the right.

My roomate just walked in with 2 CE's and threw one at me and told me happy birthday

This is based off darkd3? Still pause to apply/unapply? Also thanks.

Edit: Ok, thanks will try both.

Damn I need some new friends

 

[TheExodu5]

My roomate just walked in with 2 CE's and threw one at me and told me happy birthday

Wow. You better buy him a lap dance or two for his birthday.

Meanwhile, I'll be lucky if my roommate answers the door when my CE gets delivered.

If you don't let your friend be your best man at your wedding I'll kick you ass.

My roomate just walked in with 2 CE's and threw one at me and told me happy birthday

The fuck? Your roommate owns.

All my roommates are trash.

 

[Megasoum]

DarkD3 looks so bad it's terrible. We have enough dessaturated grey/brown games this generation, I'm happy to finally get a game that looks lively.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

My roomate just walked in with 2 CE's and threw one at me and told me happy birthday

Marry him.

gamespot gave d2 8.5, LoD 8.2.

 

[TUSR]

Are their legendary and unique items (both drops) or are legendarys the new unique? Or are uniques dropped and legendarys crafted?

Legendary = unique

set = set

crafted = crafted

Oh wow, d3 is a little blurry huh...never noticed that. I do like the sharpness increase.

 

[TheExodu5]

It must be. Yes, it's pause/unpause to apply/unapply. I guess I created this configuration before Dark D3 allowed you to create your own.

Oh wow, d3 is a little blurry huh...never noticed that. I do like the sharpness increase.

You just need to be careful with the sharpness filter since it can dramatically decrease the overall image quality of the game and the UI if improperly configured.

Must have a crush on you.

 

[Jacksonlee]

so i;ve been doing some research for diablo 3;

you cant find set items, but rather, you need to salvage rare and uniques to create set items?

so the items you can find is magic, rare, and uniques in the battlefield?

 

[isny]

Can I have a guess pass?

Yup, PM me with your email and mention that you want a guest pass.

I'm out of guest passes for now, but still have two retail CD keys left. Just shoot me a PM if interested. I'll update if I get any more guest keys.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Meanwhile, I'll be lucky if my roommate answers the door when my CE gets delivered.

Haha, same here.

 

[smr00]

Awesome roomate!

Yeah, we have also been friends for over 16 years

Defiantly going to have to get him some beer later.

Must have a crush on you.

Already have a boyfriend

He's a true friend, one of my only childhood friends who stuck around when i came out.

 

[Gowans]

where do I need to register to get the flag stuff for characters that closes on the 18th???

 

[arts&crafts]

Any d3 streams up from Asia?

 

[Lain]

Thanks for the advice but I could see no place to make that change.

When installing, on the Eula page, at the top it tells you the path it will install the game, and on the right there's the button to press to change the path.
