    I've been in the beta for awhile. I already have my collectors edition preordered. I even took 3 or 4 days off from my part-time side gig so I can level up like a mofo on release day.

    Regards,

    Yo - where do I find a girlfriend that plays D3?


    I text my buddy at least 2 - 3 times a day

    "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA DIAAAAAAABBBBBBLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

    Also plan to get 'sick' on launch day

    Wizard for life.

    I had a fun time getting it fully installed. Downloaded fine til it hit 93%, then the launcher crashed, which resulted in doing all sorts of tricks since it kept getting stuck 2/3 of the way at updating the files. The solution? Turning off peer-to-peer.

    :P I've already taken release day off. Go vacation time.

    My best friend got the beta too - but because of school (seriously, I'm graduating in two weeks I had my reasons for not stealing his login info) I haven't been able to play.

    All I care is that its finally coming out.

    and I'd like to find a boyfriend that's okay with the fact that I play video games too much. None of the guys I date (even the computer engineers) understand why I spend so much time plastered to my computer.

    Cant say I've tried D3 but I used to play D2 alot. I had a sick Hammerdin Pally but once everyone started hacking I kind of lost interest. I might try D3 out tho! It looks pretty cool!

    I've had a beta invite for a while, but just haven't gotten around to it. Played the MoP beta for about three seconds and said nope, this lagfest ain't for me.

    Started hacking? people were hacking back in 1.07 (and more than likely before that) way before hammerdins were even a viable build. Negative skill items in 1.07, now those were some good ol days.

    For those who don't know you would but on an item with negative skills and it would roll back your skills. so say your charged bolt is level 1, if it gave -3 skills, put your charged bolt at 0 then roll back to 255 and then 254, so you would have a level 254 charged bolt :) loved it. They had ammys that did the same thing with life in 1.09, but for some reason it would only work below a certain level, like 39 or something i think.

    well switching to windows now, woo hoo.

    Haven't tried it this weekend since I had the beta invite a week ago. Although I think I have done more in MoP then D3 beta and just got the invite to that Friday I think.

    got a question for yall. D3 isn't gunna be like WoW where you gotta pay every month is it? You buy it once and can play forever, just like the old ones?

    Yup, although I'm sure, much like starcraft, you'll still log in and need online access for achievements.

    blizzard has stated that two facts with Diablo... it will run on any low grade computer and online play will always be free. how ever I think Blizzard is doing buyable contant with D3 unlike d2

    Kinda sorta. There's going to be two auction houses. One where you buy things for gold from other players, and another where you can sell your items for real money.

    Runs like crap on my laptop (1.5 yr old Alienware M16). I could barely play the beta with the lowest settings.

    It took us an hour and a half to get in. Half the group got in fairly quick, me and another took another hour. I was the last in.

    Dang first days of launch. This is why it is a good idea to give them at least 3 days to get all the bugs out....

    I haven't felt an ounce of competition with any other player yet. There is no stupid chat lobby; the game can be played solo with no disadvantage; I start and stop on my own time and don't have to cater to other people's schedules.

    That said I was so excited I took 2 days off to play and I'm in Act 2 Nightmare at level 42 already :) The gameplay is so smooth and epic... greatly enjoying throwing on some drum and bass and SMASHING!

    I've had plenty of competition and solo isn't that easy at times. Of course, coop tends to be fun due to the trash talking and overall giving each other a hard time.

    Almost to nightmare act 2 with my hunter. Diablo was hard as hell for me. I think I died close to 10 times, but that just made the kill more rewarding :)

    And I'm getting too old for this. I have eye strain like crazy!

    I actually haven't played alone yet, but with a few RL friends or old WoW buddies. I guess my point was just that by comparison to other MMO games like WoW or Guild Wars (or even D2 where there the ladder was competitive), this game isn't and won't ever make me feel pressured to commit more play time. I don't feel like 'the world is going on without me' the way I did when I played WoW. By this reasoning, I'm finding this game MUCH better suited to my adult life/schedule than something like WoW or Guild Wars.

    My demon hunter is pretty swole but Act 2 Belial in NM is tough without a tank... my brother and his buddies are in Hell Mode and have spent almost all day trying to beat act 1, so for those of you thinking it's easy....just wait! haha
