Also makes sense. Just don't see the point in a gameplay standpoint of why you would want to buy gear in a game like Diablo. The entire point of the game is to go through and find awesome stuff and gear out your character. Why ruin that by buying stuff that's just going to help you beat the game faster. Why buy/play it at all?

Yeah this game will suck balls because people will just use real world money to buy good loot and have an advantage over those who dont have/dont want to spend money. Boring. Its kind of like releasing a game with cheats built in for online play.

And I will still play it for at least 7.3 years of real world time. I don't give a shit that I have to be online to play it. It's fucking diablo and it will rule the world.

However, as soon as there is a huge storm and our internet goes down and I want to play and can't then I will totally start spazzing and go on a real life killing spree with my sweet 6 slot colossus sword. Yeah totally. Wait, what?

Blizzard announced it is hiring programmers and other employees with the goal being to bring Diablo III to consoles although no exact system was announced nor any guarantees the side project would actually result in a console version of the game.

Auction houses and other new features would be a top priority if the game can be ported completely to a console.

Quote:
In a Gamescom press conference today, Josh Mosqueira let everyone know:

"Today, we're trying to build the best console team at Blizzard. We're looking for programmers, designers, artists who think their dream job would be to bring Diablo to the console."

Diablo III has been delayed from a late 2011 release to now a vague "early 2012" release date.

While Blizzard hinted it was going to be tough to reach the original release date, they now say they are taking the extra months to polish the game up more and the beta will get extended for a longer period of time to help with the tweaks.

Can't wait for Diablo 3. Been playing Torchlight on my X box and that game is basically diablo lite. Fun. Has it's issues of course, but the core gameplay and treasure hunting is all there.

The auction house situation certainly doesn't bother me. I have no desire to buy anything from it and hell, I might end up selling a few things.

Chinese farmers are going to be doing it nonstop anyways, so Blizz might as well set up a system where they make a little money off of it. Hopefully increased revenue leads to more than just one expansion of content.

Yay China.

Seriously though, until they release an offline mode, I will not buy this game.

Maybe I'm the minority (I am in a lot of ways it seems) but I have no desire to play online. I don't do MMOs, XBox Live, or anything else. The most I do is some of the app games on Facebook... and I still play them by myself. I really just won't play online.

Blizzard finally clears up how the auction house system works and why it was done.

They needed to get rid of the countless scamming and "hacks" that affected Diablo II but didn't want to get rid of the idea of players swapping items and instead felt it would be more secure to do them at official auction spots.

Quote:
"Players will be able to make purchases in the currency-based auction house using a registered form of payment attached to their Battle.net account. As with other popular online-purchase services, players will also have the option to charge up their Battle.net account with a balance of funds that can be drawn from for purchases of any digital product available through Battle.net. When players sell an item in the currency-based auction house, the proceeds of the sale are deposited into their Battle.net account."

"Fans still concerned about using the currency-based auction house can rest easy knowing that the feature is completely optional. After all, the main mode of acquiring awesome items and equipment is still by playing the Diablo III’s core adventure. Besides, there will be no shortage of opportunities to trade with friends and use the full-featured gold-based auction house. Considering that every single item from the most basic of salvaged components to absolutely epic weapons and armor can be traded, bought, and sold, Diablo III will likely keep players busy with the sheer joy that comes with acquiring and managing loot.
http://www.gamezone.com/news/diablo-...stem-explained


GiantBomb also had a quick preview of the PvP Arena mode and basically confirms Blizzard has no intentions of balancing this mode for eSports/competitive gaming.

Looks like there are some more restrictions with the auction houses dealing with real money and actually has a good benefit as a result.

While the game is region free, auction houses are locked to specific regions as a way to prevent Chineese gold farmers from scamming non-Asian regions and people buying items with different currencies than allowed in a region.

Quote:
* Diablo 3 is region free. You have a default region (based on your address), but it can be modified to play in another region (think D2).
* You can use every gold Auction House.
* You are restricted (locked) to a specific Real Money AH based on your address when you activate your game.
* You may move region providing proof of habitation (not 100% sure).
* These apply for EU/NA 100% some things may be different for Asia.

Blizzard confirms there will be a console version for the game and at least the Xbox 360 and PS3 have been confirmed platforms.

Quote:
Blizzard Community Manager “Bashiok” confirmed that a Josh Mosqueira was lead designer on the project on Twitter:

“Yup. Josh Mosqueira is lead designer for the Diablo console project.”
They were hiring programmers weeks ago with experience on console development so the news isn't a huge surprise. No other details on when the console version will arrive or if the PC version could be delayed so that all versions get released at the same time.

PC version collector's edition got revealed with a price of 69.99 euros in Europe but no US/Canada prices were given. Expect it to be around the $90-$99 price range for the US though based on conversions.

The CE does include 4 free months of World of Warcraft as an extra bonus.

* Behind the scenes DVD and Blu-Ray Two Disc Set
* Collectors Edition Soundtrack
* The Art of Diablo 3
* Diablo Skull and 4GB USB Soulstone
* Diablo 3 Aesthetic Artifacts (in-game)
* World of Warcraft pet (in-game)
* Starcraft 2 Battlenet Portraits (in-game)

The bad news is the game itself has been delayed again from the Early 2012 (March) date to now an end of June release date.

PvP mode has been cut out in order for the game to arrive on time and not be delayed again.

Quote:
"After a lot of consideration and discussion, we ultimately felt that delaying the whole game purely for PvP would just be punishing to everyone who’s waiting to enjoy the campaign and core solo/co-op content, all of which is just about complete."
Although Blizzard did announce the feature will be patched in later once its completely ready but didn't give an exact date when it would arrive.

Diablo 3 looks like a childrens cartoon compared to Diablo I and II.

Ugh.

Horrible art style/design. Failure total. I wished they made a dark and gritty Diablo but everyone caters to the 12 and younger category now and every game blizzard makes now seems to have the same look as world of warcraft.

Anyone here been able to get into the open Diablo 3 beta?

The one that's running this weekend?

From what I can tell, they put a limit on the number of players who can log into their servers at once and so far its been impossible to log in. Hopefully this isnt an indication of how their final product will perform.

Still cant wait tho, soooooooooo many good memories of Diablo II.

Playing Diablo II is one of my favorite teenage memories

Still, there wouldnt be a million people, on day 1, who still had their copy of Diablo II.

Anyway, I got in, and meh. It seems every single game blizzard made after Warcraft III uses the SAME art style and the same graphics. Its a bit boring by now...the game is alright, but Blizzard really lost its sense of art design...this just doesnt feel like a Diablo game.

It's their art style and it's awesome.
I'm still yet to properly play a diablo game, its on my desktop waiting for me to click it when my masses of coursework depletes.
How does this one feel different?

Art style is a lot more colorful and toonish, as opposed to Diablo I and II which were more gritty and darker.

Yeah... But surely that's just implementing the art style that they're know known for.
I just checked out videos and I think it looks sick, , I mean everything is rendered amazingly from what i've seen.
