Diablo 3?!

Oh.

That sucks.

Anyways - why is he not here?

Both of 'em are cool dudes, regardless of that.

Ahhh I understand. I thought all the characters had the same animation despite what weapon they used.
Thanks for the explanation!

Skill Calculator is up for all classes with skill info and all the rune choices.

You can hit the other classes from that link as well.

Someone Grush me on USwest non ladder.

I’ll give you some high runes. I need to start my werewolf druid :smiley:

How many classes is it total?

Five

Bad news: PvP is still far from ready.
Good news: The game won’t be delayed because of it. Blizzard will update the PvP AFTER release so it meets their standards so as not to push back the game more than it already has. Prospects for a summer release (hopefully).

I never cared for PvP in Diablo. the fun for me was partying with bros and grabbing sweet loot.

it’s no surprise to anyone who’s been following it’s development. the removal of features like the mystic, runes as dropped items, removal of certain passives, etc indicates they’re really behind schedule despite having several years of development time. they’re really pushing this game out the door because of it. i expect a release date to be announced very soon.

I’m really starting to wonder what Blizzard’s actually been doing with all this development time. For the game to see so many things dropped at this stage is a little worrying.

I would imagine they keep switching programmers between projects. Between WOW, Starcraft 2 and this, their schedule must be a serious juggling act.

I don’t know, Blizz isn’t the little company it used to be. I figured they’d have separate development teams for each game.

If they don’t, they sure as hell need to.

Me either, but the fact they touted an arena battle system is what got me interested. Sad to see it won’t be there at launch

PvP in D2 was kind of broken. Hammer pallys teleport all over the place while throwing hammers, kill people in 1 or 2 hits, I dont remember the tiers but the best characters for pvp were
Pallys
Druids
Necros
Barbs

I mean any character can teleport with the nigma, but assassins lose all their traps once they do, sors used to be good a few years ago with hacks and same with zons, but now since people can teleport right on a zon and throw a hammer and kill her. Zons get nothing for teleporting, barbs can since they need to be close to WW. Necros can teleport and shoot BS or Nova, Druids teleport all their summons and elements go with them once they do, but shape shifting druids can not teleport with nigma

Wow.
New patch screwed me hahaha Most of my items went up in lvl requirement.
But at least Crippling Wave was back. Blacksmith is basically useless in beta now, as most items are lvl 13+.
Had to rely on quitting and remaking games to look at merchants items haha

Blizzard lost a lot of money last year; they lost about 3 million in wow subs, thanks to the travesty that was Cataclysm. It’s pretty clear this has hurt them; Blizzcon has been canceled for 2012, and they just laid off 600 people. I’m not surprised with the delay on pvp, but at least they’re still trying to get it out in Q2. They know people are pissed as hell at how long this game has been taking.

Dude its Blizzard. Nobody is surprised when they’re games get pushed back. Abso-fucking-lutely nobody is surprised. The only people surprised are the ones that don’t want Blizzard to do what Blizzard does.

On the 600 people who lost their jobs, most of them where in technical support.

And the ones that start playing Blizzard games with WoW.

i started with warcraft 1 no joke

I have a tattoo from the Warcraft instruction book. Got it when I was 12. No joke.

I am installing the Beta right now :stuck_out_tongue: How can I play with some of you fuckwits?
