Question: Why are the video cut-scenes full of so many artifacts (PS4 edition)? Everything in the game runs super smooth, but the normally awesome looking videos look janky as hell.

I noticed this too, I have no idea why that is the case.


EDIT: Regarding the story, I gotta say the line that has stuck with me as the most annoying comes from Act III:

"If you need to be shown which end of the sword goes where, then you haven't been paying attention!"

 

[antitrop]

Yeah Act II licks big furry ones. The shitty dialogue I can live with, it's the level design more than anything that grinds my gears. It just feels like a slapped together level. I've loathed it since day one / vanilla PC.

It's not even 10% as awesome as Diablo II's Act II. Lut Gholein was the best.

 

[JonnyKtyler]

Yeah I noticed all of the pretty blizzard cinematics looked really compressed or something. It wasn't that way on pc

dat music

which reminds me, I really wish I could listen to music while playing.

 

[Jagxyz]

Do followers only work for single player? Or can you have them with you while playing online with others?

I'm using my TV speakers with the Audio settings turned pretty low (Master and Ambient Volume at 100%, everything else at 10-30%)

And then streaming Pandora or YT playlists off my PC next to me.

I remember the Act 4 cutscene artifacting like crazy on PC. Bad enough I still remember it.

 

[bidguy]

is it me or is act 5 waaaay longer than the others ?

 

[NoirVisage]

"HOW TASTES YOUR FEAR, NEPHALEM???"

/crrrrrrringe

I bet the writer of that line was REALLY feeling him/herself about how Shakespearean that line sounded on paper.

 

[antitrop]

Well, I mean, shouldn't it be? As an Expansion Pack Act, they had to make it worth the money.

I haven't played it, yet, though, I'm just taking your word for it.

 

[ZenaxPure]

Only way to have them in multiplayer is by crafting a set that has a proc where all 3 are summoned for a while. It's pretty good if you're just starting out but you typically replace it quickly.

Otherwise yeah, single player only.

Act V on Diablo II was quite short. At least compared to Act's I through. III.

800x600 resolution was worth buying Lord of Destruction for alone.

 

[SDCowboy]

Tried to play online coop, horrible lag and disconnects. I feel bad for people who only have the game on consoles.

No issues here...

 

[Weevilone]

On second thought, this game should have been a digital purchase vs. disk. This is one of those games I'll be playing off and on forever, so I'm now just going to end up disk swapping between Diablo and whatever else I'm playing forever.

 

[Korosenai]

Nooooooooo. My Kill Azmodan achievement glitched.... If I beat him again will it unlock?

Oh that sounds really cool, what smithy level do I need for that?

 

[Phat Michael]

Happened to me with the butcher. It's 100 percent and still hasn't unlocked.

 

[perfect free]

Urghhh. I couldn't resist; I'm double-dipping. Already own this on PC, but the performance isn't so hot and controller play just sounds more appealing.

I'm a pretty relaxed, easygoing player. Add Starhowler on PSN and I promise to attempt to shower you with gifts, at least as much as the RNG will let me.

 

[LCGeek]

Get ashearas set piece and then you can use all 3 in a game with people.

ZenaxPure you can use them all to the way to end game. I use them on my cold build with hellfire rings and it's quite broke can run t6 bounties solo with them. For some classes I'd move on but for a wizard they are a good compliment to her setup as they give her tanking and utilty options.

Yeah I think this is the only way to go.

 

[Gibran7]

Just curious... How many different types of armour pieces are there? Just wondering how much visual variety is there? And is there one piece of armour set for each class that's considered to be the best?

 

[drak_dreamer]

anyone know if a nemesis can be a boss ?

im saying this because the nemesis i got strangely looked like diablo lol

 

[Korosenai]

Happened to me with the butcher. It's 100 percent and still hasn't unlocked.

Says the same thing for me (playing on xbox one)....

Edit: I just went back to beat him again, and it still didn't unlock.... Oh well.

 

[New002]

If I'm not level 60 or 70 yet is it best to wait to open gifts until I achieve a higher level? Currently level 30.

You do realise the PC version is also P2P yeah? The Blizzard servers on the PC facilitate matchmaking and authentication. CO-OP games aren't hosted by dedicated servers, so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here...

That's wrong, it's 100% dedicated servers on PC and have never heard anything else before.

 

[JP]

You should! Expert at least. XP bonus is too good!

Will do, it seems to be the recommended level.

 

[super-famicom]

I hit 70 with my Wizard, am doing around 240k+ DPS. I tried soloing my first Rift on Torment 1, finished it with about 6-7 deaths. Ended up at Paragon 5. I gotta take a break.

 

[ZangBa]

Wow, I hope the blood shard exploit is fixed on PS4 somewhat soon. Not going to say anything about it, but it's pretty lazy how Blizzard didn't catch it.

 

[gotstrangepowers]

Damnit, my daughter let the nemesis kill her again. She's grounded

About how many hours is it taking people to get to this sort of level?

 

[gotstrangepowers]

I leveled up the jeweler to about level 7 and now it's requiring an item as well as gold. What item is it asking for?

 

[Pop]

I also would like to know this.

 

[Impeccable]

I don't know actual hours but it goes really quickly. Surprisingly so.

I started from scratch but I've put like a million hours on the PC version so I know what I'm doing but I'm about to hit 60 and I don't think I've played that much.

I leveled up the jeweler to about level 7and now it's requiring an item as well as gold. What item is it asking for?

Death's Breadth - Level 61+ Rare Drop from (most) Elite Packs. You'll be swimming in them.

Dont feel bad for me. Playing on the bone, co-op with gf on the couch, with my mate and his gf in the UK (we live in France) with not a single issue..

Anyway, man this game is fucking awesome!! I was on the fence about Destiny after playing the PvP, now I can see me skipping it for a while. Plus my gf is loving it, so co-op with her is great.

 

[nhlducks35]

Got to level 70 on my monk

 

[super-famicom]

I started Tuesday afternoon. I think I put about 20 hours since then.

 

[Dahbomb]

I also would like to know this.

I would not enter a GR until lvl70.

 

[antitrop]

Got to level 70 on my monk

As is evident in your picture, I'm Level 46 on my DH and still plugging away at Act II Expert.

 

[Dug]

2 questions:

1. How do I get paragon points?

2. What is the best follower for a Wizard on Hard? I'm currently using the Templar.

Paragon points are something you get at level 70. It replaces your current xp bar with a new one. Follower just depends on what you feel like you need. The templar has multiple heals and free resource regeneration. The other 2 have more damage focused stuff.

If its what I think it is, it takes way to much time and isn't really worth the effort

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

I think I'm gonna grind to 70 before I kill Malthael so I can get that guaranteed legendary drop from him. I'm at 66. Shouldn't take too long.

 

[zeox]

just got to the last act at 58.
My crusader is looking real goofy with my new helmet

 

[ToyMachine228]

So tempted to get Ultimate Evil but with Destiny 3 weeks away I'm trying to hold off.

 

[bidguy]

I would not enter a GR until lvl70.

greater rifts ? i think they are talking about gifts lol

do they scale with your level ? if i wait before i open a gift at level 50 and open it at 70 is it level 70 gear ?

 

[Woorloog]

You know, if you had a one-hand katana-like sword, or merely two-handed katana-like sword, your Crusader would have kind of a samurai look.

 

[Crimzun Wolf]

Had this Nat Slayer drop. Pretty damn good. If I get another good one handed cross bow I might go dual wield hunter.

Also I had this drop was super excited then I saw the main stat. -_-' maybe I'll roll wizard down the line.
