Updating my region and class.

Updated. We need more people like you who are already on the list from way back when and update me with their Location/Class.

If you upgrade your annual pass with a CE, you get four months of WoW, not another key.

Really I swore they had the option to get another cd key at one time

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

So are reviews of this hitting at some point? I mean I already bought it, but I'm really just curious to see what scores it gets.

Reviewers get the game at the same time we do. Which also means they will rush the game to get a review out ASAP, which will make the reviews even more pointless than they already are.

 

[pxleyes]

If my CE doesn't ship by 9pm, I'm going and getting one at Wal-Mart at midnight. I'll just send the Amazon one back.

I would hope the reviews play the full game, so honest reviews will still be a few days out and rushed paid off reviews might be coming someimte tomorrow.

 

[Trickster]

Was your resolution set correctly before viewing the cinematic?

I didn't have this problem at all.. But I'm only on a 23" monitor.

Have everything on max. Maybe I should rephrase it, the quality is similar to a youtube HD video, as in, nowhere near a proper HD video. And when things move quickly on the screen, pixelation happens.

I'm getting the feeling that early access was not granted for reviewers. It may be a few days till we see them.

It depends whether your standard D3 is an Annual Pass copy or a proper copy.

 

[HBroward]

I have a question, I have the CE coming tomorrow, do digital versions get a guess pass to give out? My friend thought it was only boxed copies that get one, and the CE gets 3 I hear. Just want to play tonight without buying another copy.

Danger Will Robinson, I will be avoiding this for a while.

Does anyone else have an issue where certain textures in the menu and loading screens are VERY pixelated? Here's a picture of the cinematic's button (I removed any "spoilers" in it). Notice the area circled is very low res. Any idea how to fix? I'm running everything at max settings.

Yup, the intro vid looked heavily compressed. I guess they wanted to fit everything on one disk?

I never noticed that Amazon gives an estimated delivery time of 8 PM.

I'm glad I noticed that they always say that since I'd have freaked out otherwise :x

You could just return the Amazon one to Wal-Mart as well I assume.

Mine too!! yeah I was freaking out just now but I realized no delivery comes THAT late...

I don't like the idea of my package sitting outside that long, I leave early in the morning. Good thing I live in a good neighborhood. But those damn squirrels, you can never know with their kind.

edit: oh PM ^ joke ruined >.> well things just got way worse

Love the title for the spoiler thread. xD

That looks weird. What graphics card do you have, and do you have the newest drivers? It looks like a driver bug maybe, or something to do with incompatibility of the graphics card.

Saw the D3 title and almost clicked on the spoiler thread.

lol thats some low res shit. maybe mipmap settings? are you on ati or nvid?

 

[DenogginizerOS]

Video was definitely pixelated for me too. I have seen that video before in HD on YouTube and it looked better. I guess they are adding value to the Blu ray in the CE.

ASUS 5870 Eyefinity-6. Updated my drivers yesterday thru Steam update. I had this issue in the beta as well. The loading screen was this massive blur too. :/

If mine doesn't ship by the end of the day. I'm gonna just pick up the digital version and sell the CE version on ebay or something.

Squirrels know all about that click click click.

sry but i had to fix this

 

[Hiro_Kunimi_80]

I'm SOOOO Ready .


12 years is really too much.

 

[Goodacre0081]

I just read about the guest pass/starter edition. it looks like I wont be getting my CE until next week, expected shipping some time around the 23rd. (NA region)

if anyone has an extra guess pass I would appreciate it. of course i would fire one back next week when i get my CE

A picture of my waifu for your avatar? Carry on good sir. *tip of the hat*

 

[Voidguts]

MAN.. so the plan for the past week between me/my co-op friends has been to sleep monday night, play first thing tuesday morning. fast forward to today.. I think the installer (as sad as that is) pushed our collective hype over the edge. seriously considering staying up until 3AM to play now. I'm just worried about server stability.

TOO HYPED

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

so I have a 120gig ssdrive. Its running out of room, if i were to go get another one, can I plug it in just like an extra hard drive and install diablo 3 on it. Or do ssdrives only work fast with the drive having the OS on it? computer noob question.

If I had an extra pass, what say you trade me your b.net avatar code instead.

 

[Arc07]

MipMap settings were at low for whatever reason. That seems to have fixed it! Thanks.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

By the time this slow-ass download finishes, I could have next-day shipped a boxed copy.

dat 90KB/s

So maybe an hour or so of content. That's sad, I was hoping it would have been similar to the old shareware days where we got 1/3 of the game for free.

 

[Fratkabula]

Yay, I'm playing it. #india

Installing now, body is totally ready.

I'm in the same boat. If anyone wants to be nice and pass along a guest pass I would really appreciate it.

 

[Mitama]

Any clue?

Did you download the old installer? You need to download the new installer if you got it before 12 May.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Finally. Downloaded, installed and ready to go. Didn't watch the beginning CG, will wait until I get into the game.

 

[HoodWinked]

Any clue?

file corruption, delete and redownload

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

It's not a code, it's part of the CE key. If it was a separate code people would sell it for a ton of money and basically get their CE for free.
