Nice! Can you put those in the shared inventory to use if you ever want to run a WD?

Yep!

 

[thetrin]

Get a tablet. It's a perfect gaming companion. No more risky Alt-tabbing!

Yup! This is why I love having my ipad with me when I play.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Yep!

This game...omg this game.

My friend's regular copy has arrived, but my CE still hasn't made it to my house yet. Oh well, I'm pretty busy at work as is. I'm amusing myself by watching the http://www.twitch.tv/thegdstudio stream off and on.

So I got to play (far less than I wanted to) and really enjoyed my time. I recently replayed through Torchlight so I would have a fresh comparison in my mind. Torchlight tries to make things easier for sure. They built a fun romp dungeon loot fest. Diablo 3 takes things a little more seriously.

What really stands out for me is the vibe D3 throws off. In Torchlight you get a whimsical vibe, D3 throws off doom, gloom and foreboding. This is serious shit, kill or be killed. I like that.

There is also a huge amount of polish. D3 seems to be polished to a sun intimidating shine. Little things all round show it. in the middle of a sound bite dialogue bit and you click on a transition point (like going from inside to outside); the sound bite keeps playing. I know that isn't rocket science but a lot of games just cut off the sound bite while loading the nest area.

It's familiar yet new. 12 years is a long time, they do a great job of paying homage to your memories and yet putting a fresh coat of paint on things. I for one can't wait to play some more. I decided to go to work so I'd keep my job, so I can keep my roof and internet connection. Tonight the hunt continues.

So main hand should be a wand yeah? I think she has a sword/shield combo right now.

Nah, just use whatever is best. The Class specific stuff doesn't offer anything special as far as I know.

 

[aeroslash]

fffff....after having to download 2 times due to a bad install, after the downloader crashed many many times, when i get to install it properly and play, it keeps telling me that the servers are full and i can't log in.....WTF?

I really hope the game is better than great because i'm out for a bad start...

 

[Gotchaye]

Is the wizard class any good?

I've been getting through Normal with one pretty easily, though maybe that says more about Normal mode than about the wizard.

Damage output is respectable, and the class is actually incredibly tanky (at least in Normal). I basically just stood and shot the Act 2 boss with Ray of Frost, hitting Diamond Skin whenever it was off cooldown. Her numbers don't look as good as the Demon Hunter's, but I imagine the Demon Hunter has to do a lot more moving around and not attacking, whereas the Wizard can just alternate Diamond Skin and Wave of Force whenever things get close.

 

[CambriaRising]

Looks like the amazon review trolls are already at it.

 

[Nibel]

This is freaking amazing :lol

No, what's amazing is that every Swedish side in existence is copy'pasting that article and it's always fun to see Swedish people say "He's Asian, obviously". Swedish people. Of my own blood.

 

[Salih]

Are the EU servers online right now?

 

[Tacitus_]

Getting Error #75 now, says there's a service outage.

Anyway, fucking suicide bombers. I think I've died to almost every single pack of them >_>

 

[Xater]

I thought after 9,5 hours of D3 I could take a break. Big mistake now I can't log back in.

 

[Bringer Of Bacon]

inb4OT2

 

[gloone]

I got kicked out of battle.net in the middle of a boss fight and now I haven't been able to log back in for over 30 minutes.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

CarbonatedFalcon - are you in charge of OT2 as well?

i gotta get lunch - wish i could help push us into OT2.

lets give a final push everyone...

 

[aristotle]

Anyone?

Has anyone been able to use a 360 or PS3 controller with D3 yet? I want to try hooking up to my 40" for the first time

 

[scy]

Man, big kudos to you Yoshi! Crazy ass achievement, wonder when I will finish this.

 

[nicoga3000]

Change your quest in the char screen.

Did not know you could do this, thank you!

 

[fierrotlepou]

Same here, damn it. Oh well, I've earned a break I guess.

Yesh. Though not much will be changing until at least tomorrow.

 

[JohnOfMars]

What's the anecdotal status of the US servers. I was a good guy this morning & logged out when I came to work. Kinda worried about getting a game going when I get home.

 

[Bringer Of Bacon]

Thats awesome YoshiChan! The barb high level armor looks awesome.. can't wait to not be barechested any more!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[LordCanti]

It's noon, my Demon Hunter is level 13, I've got over 50k gold...

Where are you UPS ;_;

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

So I log in, can't use my character I was using last night (just get error messages), get disconnected and now can't connect. Servers going down isn't that big a deal but if my characters borked I'm going to be pissed.

 

[Yoshichan]

I'm turning off the game, I think...

Can someone tell me when they can log on to EU servers?

 

[injurai]

lol from the Eurogamer comments. If only this would fit in your bunker yoshi.

 

[aesop]

Went home to try it out on my lunch break. Crashed in the first town throwing an "Error 3007" code. Hooray.

 

[ithorien]

I know it doesnt mean anything and the website is a piece of shit but lol @ 3.6 user score on metacritic

Amazon's at like 2 stars = "waah waah error 37 worst game ever"

I feel like that this setup needs more than 20 gallons of liquid to offset the 30 day supply of hot pockets.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Whew, thank God you can only play this game online.

Ohh wait, you can't play your game.....

 

[Gowans]

Brad and Vinny are streaming live on GB.

Heh, my package is still in transit so I'm not gonna get it for a while, good thing actually..

Cause I feel like shit

I'm gonna play D3 with a running nose and a sore throat ;_;

I'm actually hoping it will come later tonight till I feel better, that's how bad I feel

 

[tranciful]

Just dumped a bunch of decent stuff on the auction house. Cheap as chips is still way more than selling them off in game.

It's better to sell even meh stuff on AH?

 

[injurai]

Why amazon can I not track my CE... WHY!!!!

 

[Bradach]

I'm turning off the game, I think...

Can someone tell me when they can log on to EU servers?

Have they crashed? I'll was planning on starting a game in 2 hours, how bitter I'd be if I couldn't login after anticipating this game for so long!!!

 

[StriKeVillain]

How are the servers going to survive tonight when everyone gets home?

Spoiler

They're not
