Just woke up to play! Fired up Diablo III... Got error 37! I`m of to bed! Cya Nerds!

 

[toastyToast]

The prologue is godlike

40 minutes and I haven't even done anything yet

 

[rybrad]

I'm playing the Create Hero, Wait for Timeout game.
I give it a 6 out of 10.

Fair score, the graphics and sound are nice but the gameplay is somewhat lacking.

 

[Juice]

What if the timeout is the game? Like maybe we have to click on the little Raven or the moon or something to kill the timeout?

 

[Revenant]

So b.net is down, apparently all of it, and now twitter is down, too. DIII is bringing down all the internets tonight.

and the internets shall tremble....

 

[Einchy]

This is fun...

This thread is pretty fun right now, actually.

 

[Mothman91]

Yep, can't get pass error 37.

Feeling sleepy now lol.

 

[CeePhour]

Watching all the hype unfold on teh internetzzz has gotten me interested in trying my first Diablo experience. Is it easy to get into? Is it really fun? Inform me gaf. I might get this on thursday.

I see what you did there.

 

[commish]

I'll just create an offline character to play while I wait for the servers to stabilize.

Oh, wait.

Well, maybe I'll get started developing my cool D3 mod.

Oh, wait...

Wow, so clever.

 

[darkwing]

lol people who waited years for this can't wait for an hour or so?

 

[M_A_C]

Are there any reviews yet?

 

[Revoh]

expansion boss Error 37 confirmed

 

[KAP151]

Smooth Blizzard.. real smooooooth.

 

[goldensun]

That's a great idea. Hey while I'm off doing that you're not going to be trying to log in still, are you?

This is EXACTLY what I thought when I read that hahaha

 

[K.Sabot]

Stay awhile and listen...

So good.

This man is diligent.

Annoying, but diligent.

 

[SupaNaab]

My brother and I were both stuck at char select. I logged out. He eventually was able to get in. He's levelling his WD now while I wait to get in.

 

[JakOfTheShadows]

Newegg has the C.E in stock again!:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832127013

Ordered...if this one also get canceled...

 

[Orca]

Holy crap, I'm in.

SON OF A BITCH...I got past creation and all I got was a new error.

 

[rCIZZLE]

finally in! wooo

 

[Barakov]

Got to the hero creation screen and tried and tried unsuccessfully to actually create one before I was booted back to the log in screen. This is a calamity. I think I'm going to go play Tera now.

 

[KaYotiX]

So this is the biggest Blizzard launch in history? The sales numbers must be massive. I wonder when the US servers will be online.

I think Burning Crusade may have been. All i know is EVERY Blizzard launch has been a total cluster fuck and never goes smooth.

One would think they would learn or something.

 

[Goldenhen]

my brother in and i'm still stuck at character creation

 

[AppleMIX]

Holy crap, I'm in.

Playing or on character select?

 

[zroid]

This character select game is so fun

 

[DeSo]

My brother and I were both stuck at char select. I logged out. He eventually was able to get in. He's levelling his WD now while I wait to get in.

I made this mistake.

 

[Mr Cola]

As someone from the eu who has had this playable for about 9 hours now and who never cared about this game i have to say watching some of these livestreams of people trying to log in is kind of hilarious. I feel really sorry for those people who love the series but watching this guy have a nervous breakdown like his child is dying is good tv!

I hope you all get in soon

 

[Terrordactyl]

Holy crap, I'm in.

First I have to look at the Nuge's face, then I have to be jealous I'm not playing and you are, GODS HAVE MERCY

 

[Mothman91]

Yep, should've just fucking let us play when it was our midnight.

Not wait for the damn west coast.

 

[Hazaro]

 

[Vdragoon]

why do these idiots insist on such draconic DRM and NOT PUT IN A LOGIN QUEUE

 

[lordy88]

Got to the hero creation screen and tried and tried unsuccessfully to actually create one before I was booted back to the log in screen. This is a calamity. I think I'm going to go play Tera now.

Calamity you say? Funny, that's the character's name that I've been trying to create for 20 minutes now.

 

[Lamiafusion]

My brother and I were both stuck at char select. I logged out. He eventually was able to get in. He's levelling his WD now while I wait to get in.

Kill brother, acquire game time.

It's what Diablo would do (WWDD)

 

[2Crisis]

Can confirm servers are up and you can play. I just got in. Took about 40 minutes retrying on the hero select screen though

 

[toastyToast]

anyone get something like 'unable to create character due to party structure'?

I can't reattempt to create anymore

 

[Magnus]

Fucking lost it laughing at this, lol. I don't even know what the yellow thing at the end is, lol.

 

[rybrad]

Now that I have given up on playing tonight this is all kind of hilarious to watch.

 

[Im_So_Pringles]

I started counting how many attempts I've made to get in.


I've attempted 627 times so far.

 

[Beelzeboss]

Wow Diablo 3 turns into a completely different game after you get passed the character creation part.

What a freaking bait and switch Blizzard.

 

[zroid]

The worst part is even if I were to get in at this point, I'd probably collapse from exhaustion long before I reach the point where the beta concluded.

 

[markot]

I love forced online when you just want to play some single player. Its the future of gaming!

 

[Goldenhen]

anyone get something like 'unable to create character due to party structure'?

I can't reattempt to create anymore

I got that error too.

 

[Juice]

Holy crap, I'm in.

SON OF A BITCH...I got past creation and all I got was a new error.

this is starting to feel like a metaphor for life.

 

[Goreomedy]

I'm in too. Past character creation.

 

[chiablo]

You know what would have been an elegant solution that they already have experience in?

A login queue!

 

[reggieandTFE]

Just got booted off the character select. Ugh.

 

[csquared587]

Unable to create due to party state?
That's new.

Basically a blue item.

Got that as well, not everything is greyed out on the character create screen for 10 minutes without error messages


**edit** lots of coffee, rage, and ios makes for bad sentence structure.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

This is the best meltdown gif of ALL TIME.

ALL TIME.

 

[Economan]

Is anyone here ever going to bother doing another blizzard midnight launch after this?
Neogaf mods, please archive this thread and have it linked in all future blizzard OTs.

 

[Orca]

I got past Error 300008 and to the start screen. Hit play and...Error 395000.

Is this part of the viral marketing? Someone compile all the errors and we'll add them up and phone the resulting number!

 

[sefskillz]

Fucking lost it laughing at this, lol. I don't even know what the yellow thing at the end is, lol.

its an egg.
