Hey guys,

I was just wondering who here is going to be getting and playing Diablo 3? It would be great if everyone would make a reply and we get a nice big list so we can play together maybe? I'll keep track of ppl.

I have quite allot of friends already who will be playing it and I did play Diablo 1, 2 & LOD heavily on battle.net with some nice clans/guilds going in the past and think it would be great if some of us MBB ppl can maybe jam it together when it comes.

Note that the beta will come in Q3 this year, so thats somewhere from July to September and they are still aiming for a 2011 release (would be around 16 Dec if they can make it I think), so lets hope they make it. I expect an release date announcement at BlizzCon.
 
Use to Play LOD online but only to trade items...me and my brother finished the game like 10 times together used to play it at home on our network but i can't wait for D3!
 
1.12 US-West (East had too many hackers)

Fiora - 98 HC Sorceress (Fireball Build)
Zelathoras - 94 HC Paladin (Zealot Build)
Kelzak - 85 HC Necromancer (Poisonmancer Build)

Didn't play 1.13 much - Moved over to twilight, where I have a mean fireballing sorceress (Also Fiora - Can pwn most +-80 players in 1 ball, or even 1 bolt ;p)

So yea - I'm going to request like a week off of work (If it's not out during December holidays), camp the store till the game spawns, buy it, then will never be heard from again (Unless you add be on Battle.NET)

- - -

So yea - I'm going to be playing it ;)
 
Started Diablo 2: LOD again last week again, to get into the mood for D3.

Currently lvl32 amazon, on my way to finish Act 5 - only thing is, my paladin mercenary that I got at lvl11 (currently lvl30) in Act 2 has better items than me, does more damage and has more defense :P
 
@ Reelix awesome. Also have a few toons between 80-95 range.

Let this thread grow and we can have another chat closer to the time. Might consider putting up a guild website if needed.
 
what a question.....!
of course i'll be there, so will my wife ;)
we cranked up d2:lod over easter and went on a rampage, was a bucket load of fun. then, after having finished the game so many times, i logged in the big characters we had and enjoyed more fun. loved it. also played some dungeon siege2 to get ready for ds3... but it looks like that will be another game altogether.

one big concern that i have about d3 is that we're all over-hyping it and that when its released, it will be d2 with a few more moves and pretty graphics... i can't bear the thought! however, in blizzards defence, they've never made a crap game have they?

i still play wow, but i'm not as obsessive with levelling as i was, although i have been pimping out my shadow priest for a bit. i have been craving a d2 style rpg for ages.... i just hope that d3 lives up to all the dreams we collectively have for it.

by the way, i'm starting with a monk, no questions - wow - what a mean looking class!
 
Will be there, one of the games I have been looking forward to even before wow was launched...

Give me a decent RPG, and I will play the living daylights out of it...

Darkstone: Finished the game about 5 times on the hardest difficulty with all chars

Diablo 1: Oh gawd - The amount of time I played on this (Offline, and Online).... Even had an original Hellfire (Made by Sierra - Unofficial Expansion) - After BobbaFeTT, most online games pretty much turned into a "Can my hack let me pwn you with your hack?" - Resulting in awesome town fights (Yes, Casting spells / attacking in town), unkillable chars (NaN health) VS Insta-Kill hacks (Set death = true), and tele-walking ;p

Not to mention the built-in walk-click dupe method, resulting in everyone finding "Totally Legit" Godly Plate's of the Whale, and Obsidian Rings of the Zodiac ;)

Diablo 2: And I thought I spent a lot of time playing Diablo 1... :cry:

Aion: Currently playing InfiniteAion (Free Server), building up +- 100 hours a week ingame (Non-idling)


Hell - I even finished Nethack a coupla times :D

So yea - RPG addict here ;)

Unless he's godly-geared, he will get gibbed in Nightmare :p Bosses also deal triple damage or such to Hirelings, so he'll also die there. And as an Amazon, you'll need a high-armour Defensadin to tank the Ancients :p

What build did you go for? Multi-Shot (Generic much?), Strafe (Pwns bosses and Normal, starts sucking later), or a more.... Unique build - Valkazon (Ftw!) / Fire-Arrow? :p
 
lol @ all the blizzard fanbois :p needless to say, midnite release here I come :D diablo2 is possibly the greatest game ever made!
 
I'm getting Diablo 3 it can't be worse than Cataclysm in WoW :p. I also enjoyed Diablo 1 & 2 LOD was my favourite game with Cow Level also.

They failed with wow Cataclysm so yes they can do worse. Lot of people left wow due to cataclysm. Seems every expansion blizzard makes WoW stagnates even more. I hope diablo 3 doesnt follow the same fate as WoW.

If i haven`t died of old age by the time its released I`m definately getting it..

I'm with you on that...my bones are already starting to ache. I fear I may not make the 3rd portion of Starcraft II (or an expansion to Diablo 3 maybe?). Oh dear Half Life 2 - Episode 3...please give my grand children a warm welcoming!

I was a little worried at one point but after watching some more gameplay I've come around again. So the next question then is this...which character(s) do you plan on using for your first play through?
 
On diablo 3 I will use my usual one which is barbarian and my brother normally uses the druid
 
I see you back to hate on wow again merenweergo, miss the game quite a lot do ya? you are somewhat like the trolls on mmo. hatin on wow, yet u still on the wow forums. and before you say this is a thread about diablo3, I saw your name in another current thread.

shoo, begone pest, because we are really tired of miserable sods like you and that dal200 person

What's your bro going to play with now that there is no more druid though? For those that want a quick peek again these are the classes:
- Wizard
- Witch Doctor
- Demon Hunter
- Barbarian
- Monk

Now in D2 I played a Necro...closest match is probably the Witch Doctor (which did hold my interest for a while) however the Wizard seems like an awesome character to use on my first playthough.
It is those magics that this wizard seems determined to explore - magics centered on manipulating the primal forces from which reality is constructed.

Imagine, a headstrong ninteen-year-old youth, able to warp time itself to her will!

Other thread was about leaving wow and don't miss it one bit anymore.
