Do games release timezone specific? In other words, will the game unlock right at midnight on Tues morning for us in the Central US timezone or will it be a different time?

Well, 45 hours to go now. I suppose this can be our thread for the game once it comes out, too.
Anyone that's pre-ordered and will be playing at launch, what's your first character going to be? Also, be sure to check out this animated short that Blizz put out. |
|

I was going to go Demon Hunter, but now after some research I think Wizard for my first class and for inferno farming.
|
|
|
Going Barbarian. I downed Leoric a little too easy with that toon. I forsee some serious OP with that class and might as well get the most out of it before blizz changes it.

I played on an AMD A6 with an AMD HD 6520G. Game ran fine. From what I can tell is if you can run StartCraft 2, you should be able run this game. |

Probably Barbarian or Demon Hunter.

I'm just plagued with some sort of memory leak that makes my game run slower and slower over time. Restarting the game fixes it for a while. Version doesn't matter. Oh, and I'll be rolling a monk. Friends are rolling a barb and a wizard I think.

|

Will be rolling all the characters since I will be playing with a bunch of different groups of people.
Main will probably be Barb to start.

Let the whining begin.
Preemptive strikes. 1. This suck I can't get on. 2. I can't play single player. 3. It keep dropping me out of the server. 4. Fix the server Blizzard! 5. WTF? 6. etc. Good luck guys and make sure you take your pills. God forbid you have a heart attack trying to get onto the server! |

Was said of every single blizzard game released. And everyone wasn't alright. It will be chaos on a massive scale. Diablo has one of the largest fanbase around the world, and yeah, it's going to be a huge launch. I would even go as far to say it could possibly even be larger than the original WoW launch....and we all know how they went. We've come a long way with technology, but I still don't think blizzard is shelling out enough cash to not have problems on launch day hour zero. I remember when the beta opened up for everyone....servers went down several times immediately, and throughout the weekend. I'd say don't get your hopes up. If it works, fuck yeah, awesome. If it doesn't....well, it's blizzard for one, but it's also a brand new launch of a highly anticipated and sought after title. Millions upon millions will be hitting enter on the password screen to enter into Diablo 3 as soon as the servers go live.....I'm like a master of all things, I am like god mode, super charged boss on crack, and even I would die if that many people hit me at the same time =P. Anyways, as always: expect the worse, hope for the best. Wait, scratch that, expect the worse, go to bed. lol. |

I just hope it'll run on my old 9400 GT

Always walk a mile in someone else's shoes before criticizing them. That way, when you do criticize them, you are a mile away and you have their shoes.

It's still a "isometric" type game. While it's entirely 3D and the graphics are awesome, they aren't going to be intensive as say, skyrim or bf3? I can't say it will run maxed out, but I'm fairly confident it will run on a 9400GT. Like I said, while it has some badass graphics, for the type of game it is, it won't have such a performance drop as something like skyrim or bf3. IDK how to explain it lol. Let me know when you try, I really want to know now what it can and can't handle. |

Blizzard has always tended to keep the requirements low in their games, the more ghetto a rig is that can play their games, the more money they can make... Now, i saw that in the CE they included buddy passes to play a free version, max level 13 to skele king just like beta...perhaps can get hands on one of those firat to see how it will run |
|
|
Thanks for the sticky
|
|
|
You're welcome
Have fun. OP you can change the title to Official if you want. I never thought 4 years ago when I drooled over the first screen shots (and i was still actively playing D2) that I would be going into launch with a yawn and a maybe). That and I won't have time this week or the coming weeks to even give it a try. |

Are you a gamer? Check out our Wargaming forum and community.

I'm very disappoint they didn't allow a single player campaign mode available offline. I've been playing and re-playing D2 and it just makes me sad I cant play D3.
|
|
|
If they're giving buddy keys out, someone send me one. Won't be able to get it anytime soon, need to get my fix of D3 somehow.

For those of you that preordered and preloaded DIII, have you gotten a CD key yet?
I haven't, and when I check my order status it says "queued." |

Hmm, don't know, last time I pre-ordered something from Blizz, It was Cata for WoW, and I got it from a store >_<. That doesn't sound right, but I wouldn't worry. Has the money come out for the pre-order yet? If so, I wouldn't worry, it says queued. You'll find out in what, 3 more hours? Are they doing 12am PST? |

I don't recall having to enter any serials when I bought SC2 when it came out, bought it through their site, it went right onto the account and I started playing. I totally forgot about that. |

It's installing.
The game is connected to your BattleNet account. Said something about going on to my account and activating it there before it would let me install. I just logged on to my account and poked around a bit trying to figure out how to activate it. Next thing I know it's installing. |
