Official Diablo Iii Thread

[boiracer]

This game is constantly online, so even in a private game by yourself you are dependent on a constant connection to battle.net . Because item drops, characters, etc comes from the server side congested servers or a bad connection can bugger the whole thing up. Hoping it is better when I get home tonight.

i am aware of this...but still dont like the idea.. borderlands does random drops etc without the online essential.

Have spent an hour or so playing, have gotten kicked off servers twice due to connection fall out. I guess this is now the standard when i new game is released, I am only playing single campaign though and dont completely understand why i must be connected to their server the entire time???

It is however so far a good game, the lag points though are annoying me but i would say these would get fixed as updates come to light.

only real thing i can think of is for Piracy reasons is why theyve made it like this. and i wouldnt worry, it will all get sorted out asap. (and ive only played multiplayer so far......get some friends, its fun!!)

other than the servers going down this arvo for a few hrs ive had no issues or dropouts...just the occasional jitter from lag spikes, which i assume will get sorted out anyways.

awesome game lvl23 barb, with a monk and wizzard in tow

So many people having troubles.

I don't even get lag :S

With or without people.

By yourself or with others, its the same game, same quests/missions. I just have mine open to others and then they join me to do the same quests.

Yeah I'm currently playing a wizard which is pretty much living up to the name glass cannon. Mass + int items and minimal +vit. I literally get one shotted by champions and bosses so I need others to be meat shields. Although I literally melt enemies away with the stupid damage done.

[Owgasm]

Yep. Wizard is powerful but can't withstand big blows. I just run in with my absorb move and spam my moves.

Level 24 and act 3.

What right and left click moves do other wizards use?

[25GTT]

Servers seemed HEAPS better this morning no lag what do ever. Will try again this arvo

[Owgasm]

Will be playing from now if anyone wants to join.

Keep an eye on catch of the day i think theyre gunna be doing it cheap cheap in the next few days... wasnt gunna grab it but may have to see what all the fuss is about

[ClutchBurndout-:(]

bought it, runs on high graphics lol, and well to.

[25GTT]

Yeah i think there may have been some confusion when it first came out saying that Diablo was gfx hungry due to the stuttering, but generally that is caused through latency in the connection, not so much a graphics card.

It would surprise me if it was gfx hungry as although the visuals are nice, its not anything out of this world like crysis was at the time or MW3 for example (ok BF3 as well for you haters)

since my post the game has at least been playable. The odd spike but for the most part alright. Would be enjoying it more if it was offline single player but i'll make do with what ive got.

level 17 demon hunter.

[Nur33]

Yeah got my copy last week and so far i'm pretty happy with it, it has mostly similar to D2 in some ways, i do need a better computer its about 4yrs old to play it better so may have to invest in one soon. My internet is pretty fast and i am having a lot of trouble on the America Servers, i swapped to the Asia one there for a little bit when i had 3007 error coming up and i must say it played a lot smoother and quicker. I do to wish that they made this an offline game so i could play it when i'm away for work for the week. Overall still a kickarse game got a lvl21 Barb just playing every now and then when i get a chance.

[MUZT3K]

Got my demon hunter to 18 lovin it...if anyones interested I have 2 collectors editions left for sale, pm me

[ClutchBurndout-:(]

game is going a bit quick for me, dreading finishing it

[Owgasm]

Mmm... very simple the first run.

My god I hate the lead up to the Butcher in act 1 and damn that butcher, took me ages trying to revive a useless player.
