Just finished Normal and a couple of quests into Nightmare now.

My barb so far:

Why is the DPS so low?

Pretty much did this all through Normal except for the last stretch.

Probably going to have to switch to this set once I hit the Skeleton King.

Inferno ACT III ...i think he and his friends are the fastest.

They are getting destroyed, this is hilarious to watch.

This game needs a damage meter add-on. Just like in WoW. I'm curious to see who makes the most dmg when playing in a group.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I love it the way it is. Noone is freaking out on anyone for the "pitiful dps" that they wouldnt even notice save for a meter. So anyone can play any spec they like, and the only thing the party cares about is whether or not they are advancing.

Polar opposite of what damage meters did to WoW. 2 guys could be doing 40k but you have folks that cant stand running a 5 man because the 3rd dps is in PvP gear doing 5k. It really doesnt matter at that point.
 
I really REALLY wish Blizzard would do some small update that makes the music abit louder overall than all other volume levels. Seems like such a small problem, but I just cant get over the fact that I have to turn music to 100 and everything else aside from ambient to levels like 30 and 40, and crank my PC volume to max just to hear it.
 
Wait... is it true that people are finished with inferno? ( or close to finished )
 
Mine runs really nicely on this setup:

Smoothly at 60fps with a mixture of high/medium settings (not at home right now so I can't confirm the exact settings). Isn't the 4200 newer than my graphics card?

Yeah, seems there's a problem with my card and the latest ATI Catalyst drivers - the game prompted me to update them prior to playing, but I just rolled back to the previous drivers and now I can play with everything at medium, although I have to drop down the resolution to get 15+ fps, but at least I can play :)
 
Disconnected yet again, after exploring most of the map. Getting lag killed. Auction House is not working properly at all. Fun times.
 
I love that Blinding Flash has a specific rune that increases elite mob miss rate to 60%. Monk, I love you.

Tempest Rush with Tail Wind, drive-by Blinding Flash to defang elites.
 
Thanks all. Jeez, I though this game is supposed to be short. I've already played for six hours. I should know by now, games are never as short as some make them out to be.
 
Still getting Error 3007 after some minutes. The game has been unplayable for two days now. :/

I switched over to another router (Billion 7404VGP-M) and it's been fine -- just finished a ~one hour session. *touch wood*

Just know that you won't hit max level or see all your skills after beating the game on normal.
 
Finished hell, ran through some more with neph valor to see the difference (it's very noticeable in terms of what drops. A3 boss instead of the usual '2 blues' you get without mf, dropped 6 blues and 4 rares with only 95 mf from the valor and a couple minor items).
Had to go survival :( very disappointed in the viability of anything that isn't tank oriented as a melee character. going to take a TON of specific gear to be able to beastmode dps your abilities and not get crushed in groups.

That said, I'm extremely happy with the look of high level gear, even blues and yellows.

Love dat helm, since have dyed it all white for lack of options and it still looks cool.
 
Just trying out a Barbarian. Kinda fun to Leap+Stomp+Smash the hell out of everything. A very different feel to the Monk so far and that is what makes D3 cool.

What is the level cap, by the by?

I'm tempted to keep playing with my character on higher difficulties, something I've never really done with games in the past. But then I also want to try out different classes, because I have a felling my choice (wizard) isn't the most exciting option. I can see why Diablo is such a time sink for so many people.
 
Anyone know why all the rare wizard helms look identical on the auction house? There's pages and pages of them but they're all the same visually. I ask because god damn those hats look dumb.

60. It should take until you've nearly finished hell to hit the cap. then the game ACTUALLY begins.

60 currently. You get all skills by 30 and then unlock the runes as you progress to 60.
 

Yes, it does.

Level 60 is the cap.

My I'm at the end of act 3 on Nightmare right now. I would've bowled through it with some other GAFfers but I decided to do some special item hunting and some work on my gear.

1250 isn't all that high for 48 but this gear set has 90% magic find on it lol. My actual DPS would go up if I ignored it and just went raw damage. I can still solo well to boot, just need a couple of heal skills and to be a bit safer. Going to work on getting some intelligence in there as well for a higher resist stat.

Yeah compared to mine that's low. This is my lvl 50 Monk just at the start of Hell:
