Finally. If this was delayed because South Korea is lame about betting then I'd be upset.

Does anyone mind the PvP arena will not be released at launch, that its just the campaign? I personally don't mind if they bring it in in a few weeks or whatever, I much prefer getting it now and having to wait for this component then waiting an extra month for the whole thing.

Will believe it when it's installing on my PC.

i'm in the beta. it's f**king awesome. can't wait until the full game is released. the beta is already a very polished final product.

Fair enough given Blizzard's history of delaying games, but I think this is legit. It's an official annoucement from Blizzard (not some cardboard advertisement written by a store in England or whatever it was) with a specific date. Have they delayed games with a specific date release before? I thought they only ever did it for vague release dates, such as Q3 2011 or Summer 2011, things like that.

My boss was pre warned, so the minute the announcement was made, he booked my week in himself. It's good to work for gamers

If they release a demo I'll give it a look.

I played it, got a barbarian up to the max level 13, and a witch doctor up to 12. It was fun but after a while I couldn't play it anymore because I just wanted to keep going, it was frustrating having to stop and start over again.

That's why i didn't play it, I just want to get straight into it all

Didnt rate the beta demo, even in 4 player co-op it just lacked something..

Alright so a mate lent me his login over the weekend and i played through some more classes, the Monk has to be my favourite followed by demon hunter. Definitely starting to see the hype

ok - old school with not fast pc.

not long back bought diablo II and really love it.

anyone got any tips for the game - as in how to use the horodric cube thing?can you still play this online?

would like to see dIII but fear my machine wouldn't handle it.

 

[Jason Maher]

Shoot me a PM snoozer. I can give you some very lengthy tips and tricks, especially if you're playing Single Player (my specialty).

Paid off my Diablo III pre-order today. Only 4 more sleeps. And then a wait til 5pm when the servers go live. Then another wait until the servers become servicable, I'm sure.
