yep...3am eastern 12am pacific for us, region is locked to your battle net account.

I guess if I were to complain about the 3am time I'd be echoing about 80 pages of comments I haven't read?

Pretty much.

 

[Keyouta]

So should I just torrent?

For everything?

 

[GraveRobberX]

690 is excessive for a single 1080p monitor. If you're planning to multi-monitor or go mega-monitor, however, go big or go home.

Thinking about hooking it up to my 65" Panny Plasma 3D TV through HDMI, sound good?

 

[Snapshot King]

Pretty much.

Figured as much. We should get it first! Asia should have to get it the following midnight. Yeah!

 

[Johnny2Bags]

To those of you who are student and have finals in the next few days, I have the following to say to you: forget about Diablo 3, and go focus on your studies. You have a lifetime to play the game, but only a few days to determine your future. Trust me, it's not fun to fail a fucking test because of a video game, especially if you go to an expensive school, and/or are taking loans to pay for it.

but I waited 12 years for this...

Spoiler

I am already done for the year

 

[JimmyBoy]

Now...to convince the wife I need to be left alone all weekend...with the exception of being brought food. I will need all of my skills for this task. And by skills I mean money so she can go shopping.

 

[Realyn]

If you don't care about being spoiled abit, I'm like ~60 minutes past SK

[scy]

oh your right. 2 broke girls ended last week right? Came two and a half men today?

Yeah, I think that ended last week and Two and a Half Men was tonight, I think? Dunno, just caught HIMYM for the night. Can only take so much disappoint :x

Looks like I timed myself pretty well for coming back.

 

[HenryHSH]

Well, I feel bad for East coasters. You guys are going to wait until 4 AM to actually login without issues.

 

[chris-013]

Holy shit the spike in difficulty after SK in the field of misery Oo

Same resolution.

 

[Snapshot King]

Anyone who's actually doing that is kind of nuts honestly. Just go to bed at your usual time, wake up and Diablo away, or when you get home from work or school or whatever. This'll be a game many of us look back on in the future as "that game we spent too much time on."

 

[JimmyBoy]

Holy shit the spike in difficulty after SK in the field of misery Oo

Glad to hear it. The beta was crazy easy.

 

[blackflag]

goddamn that install music. I never give a shit about game music but this is glorious. Is it available anywhere legit?

 

[rybrad]

Who likes the look of the CE wings? Saw them in motion for the first time and they look kinda bad.

 

[bengraven]

So...it unlocks at midnight in other countries, other time zones, but America has to wait until it's midnight on the west coast?

Booooolshiiiit.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Well, I feel bad for East coasters. You guys are going to wait until 4 AM to actually login without issues.

It just keeps me from playing tonight and going into work exhausted tomorrow morning. It's really for the best. I'll play when I get home tomorrow evening. Work will suck enough with sleep.

Diablo 2? I agree

 

[HBroward]

Wow, just got my shipping confirmation on my CE from Amazon, at 10:34 eastern. Really thought I would be that one guy with an Amazon horror story for a bit there. But they have redeemed my faith as always.

Yup. My plan (even as a west coast-er) is pretty much to get home, install the game, and go to sleep. I imagine things will be a fair bit more stable when I wake up in the morning.

 

[Alex]

I wish theyd just open the servers when its ready for everyone, but I'm sure there's some extremely creepy sect of meganerd that will whine about world firsts or whatever other stupid shit fuels their sad lives.

 

[B-Dex]

Holy shit the spike in difficulty after SK in the field of misery Oo

That's what happens when you beta 1/4 of the first act of your game for 2 years.

 

[06nbarnhill]

Not going to try playing at midnight. Will cya all at 6 am tomorrow.

Have nightmares of staying up till 1 am only to not be able to log on for 4/5 hours.

 

[mysocksarepink]

SCORE, nice one bro.

I hate that I have a final tomorrow at 10 AM

the prometheus poster is awesome.. it takes up an entire wall

Dark Shadows is fucking awesome... and a great way to kill 2 hours

now... game of thrones

mad men

a movie

ricky gervais stand up

AND THEN DIABLO

 

[squidyj]

OMFG I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE SOMEONE INJECT THIS INTO MY VEINS PLEASE.

I can't do that. I can, however, inject it into your butt.

I wish theyd just open the servers when its ready for everyone, but I'm sure there's some extremely creepy sect of meganerd that will whine about world firsts or whatever other stupid shit fuels their sad lives.

and your rage over what? a couple of hours of playtime is somehow superior?

Oh hey. Guess what just started playing

Smashing Pumpkins - Today

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I want to click click click

[Radec]

hey guys what's going on ?

 

[CrushDance]

Hey guys. How big is the patch for this game? My internet isn't super fast so if I buy the game tonight, will I be able to play relatively right away?

 

[Yaboosh]

How long does it take to get to level 10? I want to go Hardcore as soon as possible.

 

[injurai]

Hey guys. How big is the patch for this game? My internet isn't super fast so if I buy the game tonight, will I be able to play relatively right away?

about 100mb, so you should be just fine.

How long does it take to get to level 10? I want to go Hardcore as soon as possible.

maybe an hour and a half.

 

[scy]

Who likes the look of the CE wings? Saw them in motion for the first time and they look kinda bad.

I'm going to hold off on decision for when I see them when in full late game armor sets. That and see how it looks as a Monk doing things.

 

[rybrad]

Hey guys. How big is the patch for this game? My internet isn't super fast so if I buy the game tonight, will I be able to play relatively right away?

Didn't see the exact size but it was pretty small as I barely noticed the download on 5mb internet.

 

[mysocksarepink]

about 100mb, so you should be just fine.


maybe an hour and a half.

so we download the patch when the servers are live?

 

[JimmyBoy]

How long does it take to get to level 10? I want to go Hardcore as soon as possible.

judging from the beta, about 1 to 2 hours.

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Kinda late for the party but its 3:39 am here in the UK and i'm in!!

We're aware that some Australian GAME customers have been left out in the cold on what should be the hottest night of the year — the launch of Diablo III. To help with this situation and get these players into the game as soon as possible, we've put the following process in place.

Australian GAME customers with a valid preorder/prepurchase receipt dated before May 15, 2012 can do the following:
1. Purchase the digital version of Diablo III from http://www.diablo3.com now or anytime before May 21, 2012.

2. Download and start playing when the servers go live!

3. Submit your GAME Australia preorder/prepurchase receipt to us before June 30, 2012.

4. Receive a credit from Blizzard, for the amount you paid in advance to GAME Australia for Diablo III. This credit will be applied to the payment method used for the digital purchase.

We'll post further details here on how to submit your GAME Australia receipt to our customer service team as soon as possible. Stay tuned, and we look forward to seeing you in the Burning Hells!

Then that is my goal for tonight, making a HC character.

Yep. Managed to ace my early final today, and I'm in good shape for the one I have next week. I just need to finish all of the other miscellaneous work between now and then.

nice. blizzard coming through for australians.

 

[Calavera520]

lol, no offense taken. I that it was funny and fit a stereotype that surrounds mac users.

And np, you might want to turn off shadows though.

"stereotype that surrounds mac users."

smh...

you are such a fool. and how about the stereotype that surrounds those that have glowing cases with 15 fans? some of us operate in the real world.

yeah I really envy those that have this in their apartments...

i'll stick with my mac thanks. Diablo 3 beta ran with max setting with a silky smooth frame rate. no complaints

 

[Junie12]

Then that is my goal for tonight, making a HC character.

Take a screenshot of your first HC death and show it to GAF

That's what I'm gonna do when I start HC.

 

[~Kinggi~]

nice. blizzard coming through for australians.

awwwww, sweet blizzard providing that juicy crack

 

[Undubbed]

Just purchased digital version and downloading now.

Never played a Diablo game, but so many people praised Diablo 2 and are treating Diablo 3 as the 3rd coming of Diablo Christ and the game does look very good that I decided to buy it.

Always wanted to play Diablo 2, though. Not too sure why I never had but now I can play a Diablo game for the first time.

 

[Yaboosh]

If I play an HC character tonight, I will have one quickly I am sure.

Seems like somebody might have struck a nerve with the mac user?
