None of the console versions are always-online.

In that case I'm pretty much sold. Neat!
I'm not sure but there might be a demo (for original D3) available. There was one for original D3 on 360 at least.

Man you guys are lucky you have girlfriends that play video games with you
My girlfriend calls me a child and thinks that grown men should not play games...and almost break up over it.
So i have to sneak out of bed just to squeeze couple of hours on ps4. Sucks.
You need to break up with your girlfriend. If she cares about you she should support the hobbies that are important to you. I was in a similar relationship and trust me, it can be better.
My wife and I played Diablo for ten hours yesterday. She never played games before we got together.
You can do better!
Outside of a couple errands, I pretty much threw all of Saturday at this game, and I'll probably do the same today.
My Barbarian is trucking along in T1 now. Today had some pretty decent drops:
- Raekor chest
- Shard of Hate (RIP)
- Magefist
Lots of other random stuff thrown in there, but most of it was sacrificed for enchanting. Still haven't gotten my RRoG yet so I haven't really left A1 bounties except to do some rifts.
Had a rift today where I think I chained a single Massacre from the entrance to where the RG spawned (though him knocking me back and my charge clipping a tree ended it before he died). Felt pretty bad ass.
I'm really enjoying Barbarian, but I have to say, Fury as a resource is kind of shit. Almost everything you can actually spend Fury on sucks, even though Fury is the hardest of the five resources to manage. I don't really get it, nor why most of the buffs in the upcoming 2.1 patch are for the generators when the spenders are so out of whack. I think if the endgame sets were actually based around spenders instead of CDs this class would pretty much be booty sweat tier for the high end content. Strikes me as odd that even in this upcoming patch they seem to be trying to work around the problem instead of addressing it.

Can I go on with my solo run while the PSN servers are being attacked or will I run into problems? Because if that is the case I'll just stay outside enjoying the sun.

The demo is no longer available on PS3.
Going for that Dream Team Trophy/Achievement? What's your method of power leveling?
Bounties on a difficulty that you're able to clear it as easy as possible. The only 2 classes I'm using for the story was the Witch Doctor ( first class ) , and the 2nd will be the Demon Hunter in Hardcore. If I knew the WD was so easy I would have used that one in Hardcore, but o well. That way when I level my DH to 70, I'm getting the all classes @ 70, and HC character @ 70 trophy.

Finishing Act 1, haven't seen either

I've got a HC Crusader that I'm trying to beat the story with + get to level 70. I'm scared to bump the difficulty past Hard lol.
So I just got this RoRG drop from a Horadric cache. I heard it's good even though I haven't seen much set pieces so far. Should I enchant it and re-roll any property for my Crusader?
Also my damage is pretty pathetic to what I seen from some of you guys. Still i'm doing pretty well doing bounties on Torment difficulty. Only one death so far.

PSN is down, so I'm guessing that's why.
Hahaha yea, no way I'll be taking any risks on HC.

So am I understanding this correctly.....?
After hitting level 70 I should create other characters who will then benefit from my earned Paragon points.
I can bring these low level characters into my level 70 game (playing co-op with my wife) and level them up quickly.
Right?

Got my first and only nemesis encounter in act 3. I wrecked the thing, no problem at all, with my crusader.

I know it drives me crazy! She's just started handing me the controller to clean up her inventory because it was taking her forever.
And worse yet, she didn't want to get rid of anything. Had to break her of that, lol.

I don't know much about Crusaders, but I'd probably roll the LpS off for critical chance. The Stone of Jordan I'd probably do the same with the area damage, but I don't know how good WpS is on Crusader so maybe that's an option too.
Those are the two rings you want to be wearing for now, though. Good finds.

Rolled a Monk, went from Lv1-18 in one 6 hour sitting after playing with a work friend.
He was a Lv25 wizard, so I like the game balanced itself to both of us(I was lv10 when we decided to play together).
I also really like the Monk, tons of flashy moves, and that quick damaging teleport move is one of the cool moves the Monk has.

That move is one of my favorites, also the one where you can move really quickly, helps for massacres, and his healing power.
Fuck I love my monk.

I'm leveling my HC characters on Expert, to keep it exciting. My first HC character died at 43, from an arcane sentry; those are deadly.
Working hard to look fashionable
All right, think i'll try and re-roll the LpS on the RoRG.
Not sure how good the area damage bonus is... I like area damage though
Is anyone else rarely getting any gifts? I've been getting a ton for other people, but have only received a couple for myself.
I usually have 4 waiting in my mailbox overnight.

So yesterday I was co-opping with a friend and Nemesis appeared that had killed 4 dudes before. I was doing ok, but my buddy died and I teleported away for a bit to heal up, but the nemesis was nowhere to found after? Does it just disappear after it kills a single person (I was the host)? Kinda lame, because I was doing quite well against him, but because of my scrublord buddy I now missed some awesome loot.

Must be nice. lol

You want to roll crit on both rings , unless your crit chance is 40%+ already then roll crit damage or cooldown reduction depending on your build
It's funny, outside of you and me I haven't seen a single other barb yet. Either through my friends list or in public games. I got a RROG today but it was god awful
That "DRM bullshit" keeps the PC version cheater-free though. It's a whole different ball game to the console versions. Each has their pros/cons.

PC version is in a great spot now imo. Will get even better with 2.1

Damn, that sucks. Do we know how long it's supposed to be down for?

Apparently, they aren't trying to hack for information, they're just sending scripts to screw with the service. The same "hackers" have been doing this to League of Legends and Blizzard servers lately.
There's maintenance planned for August 25th starting at 9:40AM PST, I believe.

Yikes. So PSN is going to be down today and tomorrow?

(PSN) Frost-Fiend here,
Diablo Gaf is insane. I mean wow. The only Gaf member I saw at Lvl 1 was HeyBro_ , I went did something with my kids and a couple hours later he/she was at Lvl 45. I can't keep up. I told myself that I wanted to beat the story once by myself and explore every nook and cranny before I played with other Gaf members but by the time that happens everyone on Gaf is would probably have moved on to another game.
Also to everyone that has added me, I hope I'm not annoying by mailing you the low Lvl rare gear I come across. I seriously thought I'll be able to keep up with my fellow Gaf members and I do believe in paying it forward but I won't be able to pay it forward with better stuff until I catch up with you all.

On PS4? Shouldn't it work regardless if you set your system to be your primary PS4?
Oh and if anyone wants to add me, it's meppi64 on PSN.
First time playing it and I have a level 24 Demon Hunter right now.
Only bought it yesterday and somehow ended up playing for 11 hours in 1 day. Holy crap...
what the fuck, why can't i play the game because the PSN servers are down? it wasnt like this on PS3, where you could just play any game you had on the HDD no matter if PSN was down or not.
fuck sake, is this a type of DRM then ? I cant play my digitally downloaded game without being connected to the internet? tsss

Do you have your PS4 set as your primary system under your PSN account?
Most likely, yeah.
