Blizzard has just released their thirteenth batch of screenshots (see here if you missed the twelfth) for hitting the 850k 'Like' mark. Once again, we've got the high resolution versions at our disposal here on DiabloFans.
The first image is a concept piece of the Guards of Caldeum. Caldeum will be in Act II of the game and lies in the deserts of Kehjistan. As far as the lore goes for this city, it was once the main trading center for most of Sanctuary. After the corruption of the Kurast, many people fled to Caldeum which caused a revolt in the once peaceful city. After their Emperor died, the city went to ruins. Interestingly, the Zakarum, the order of the Paladin from Diablo II, has had a reemergence in this city. This should be an interesting place to visit.
Click the images to bask in the glory of the high resolution versions that you likely won't see anywhere else! 25,000 more likes to go until the 875k mark where we can get some more images, and 6 more milestones until we hit the 1 million 'Like' goal. Go visit facebook.com/Diablo and 'Like' the page to speed the war effort!
And, in case you were wondering what will happen when we get to this 1,000,000 likes goal, Bashiok gave us just a small little hint. No, it will not be beta announcement but it will be some cool visuals.
Official Blizzard Quote:
We have something cool lined up, but it's along the lines of the visuals we've released so far. Nothing earth shattering, but something cool to celebrate the milestone.

Call me greedy.. But I'd really like to see some more.. Action-full screen shots. In the Monk game play video there are tons of footage of 4 characters all pwning at once, that I'm positive would make a great shot. A new image like that would make my day!
As for what Blizz said, I was kinda hoping for more, but again SC2 just got a wallpaper.. Which to me is even less thrilling than new screen shots and concept are so it's kinda a step backward.. I'm a negative Nancy today.. lol

I thought they got a trailer at the end of there thing on the sc2 site. I mean once the counter was reached they released the ghosts of the past trailer.

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
Seriously i'm disappointed with what they're giving us so far, nothing new or anything interesting that we haven't seen and as for the 1 million mark i'm even more disappointed. "We have something cool lined up, but it's along the lines of the visuals we've released so far." really? might as well not update anything.

I'm not to sure, I know they got a wallpaper of a battleship being attacked, I didn't hear anything about a trailer. Than again I didn't follow the fb like challenge.

How can you be disappointed about it if you haven't even seen it yet? That's just being pessimistic. That could simply mean it will be of the same mediums, not that it won't be something interesting.
What's even more disturbing is the thoroughly immature way many people are taking these things. Each picture, every concept piece, is not supposed to be some ground-breaking announcement that reveals every act and spoils everything before the game even hits beta. Seriously. So many of you are acting like children. Not even children. I know children that behave better.
What the hell do kids look to for mentality role models these days? Where has patience and logic gone? It's just disgusting. All they said was that these pictures would be pictures, and that the concept art would be concept art. Any other precedents set were imaginary ones designed by an unthankful, impatient, illogical, and thoroughly immature select few fans that are spoiling the attitudes of forums I'm trying to visit to get some enjoyment out of life, out of a video game that hasn't even been released yet.
God.
I'm gonna go fuck myself now I'm so angry. Or maybe I'll fuck a bunny.
I too would say I'm bored with the seemingly throwaway images, except that Blizzard's concept team is so good :wub: SS can go die for all I care, I've got video!
I am kinda confused why the barbarian has a magic LOOKING ability. Yes i read the description and i know its called ignore pain, but i see the barbarian as character that says, "fuck magic i got muscles". Even the visual of a magic LOOKING ability disturbs this. I know that the other players have to know that he has this ability active or else it would/could be very op. Why not have the visual side of the ability be a different running animation,and/or a sound bit of the barbarian laughing like a maniac when he is hit, and/or when the ability becomes active he slams his fist against his chest and says "come on, MAKE me bleed!". Well i can keep dreaming but no matter what everyone will get used to what they decide and will eventually not see it as a bit awkward...or is it just me?
It does seem a bit odd, though I'll accept it. The guy isn't just pure muscle. He has magic flowing through his veins just like all of the other heroes. He just chooses to focus on the physical aspects solely. I mean in reality no matter how strong someone is they wouldn't be able to jump like a barbarian uses leap. Theres a few different ways that they could make it "less magic like" but it'd still seem like magic, and they have to have some sort of lasting effect to show exactly when it happens and ends.

Yeah it's a bit awkward but we have to know, as players, what active abilities are going on with our characters. This is a pretty magic heavy world and environment so it's not beyond reasoning that even big, dumb, barbarians may have some supernatural or magical talent that makes them more impressive then other warriors. Heck, even if nothing else, it still *looks* cool, right? lol. I say whatever - it's probably a better effect then some "status effect symbol" above my characters head or something.
Anyway i'm of the same, although less heated, opinion of Magistrate. It's a bit ridiculous the whining that happens anymore. Not just in regards to d3 but life in general. That's all I'll say about it.
I'm totally stoked to see what else is coming down the pipe!

Awww, precious. Little poopy tried to be condescending and got himself all bothered. It's ok honey, next time you forget to take your medicine, just do like we talked about.. walk away from your computer, take a deep breath, and bottle up your crazy on the inside so that it can never get out.
Seriously though, I want to forget D3 exists until launch, that way time will pass much faster, but I can't because of these inane updates.
I swear to god I'd much rather Jay Wilson fart onto mirror and write the word "UDATE!" in his ass-fog, take a picture with his i-phone, and post that. Not even joking. Ass-fog is the only reason I check on D3 anymore.
Edit: I want to be very clear it's Blizzard that's acting a fool. Diablofans is cool, you guys have done an amazing job keeping things fresh in such a vapid wasteland of information these last few months.

The second image is a screnshot of the Arena. We can see a 3v3 team dueling it out. On the Blue team are two //www.diablowiki.com/Barbarian">Barbarians" class="wiki-link">//www.diablowiki.com/Barbarian">Barbarians"/> Barbarians. The one at the top is using Ignore Pain which adds the look of shields floating around him. The Red team is comprised of a male and female Witch Doctor and a male Wizard. The Witch Doctor has his //www.diablowiki.com/Summon_Zombie_Dog">Zombie Dogs" class="wiki-link">//www.diablowiki.com/Summon_Zombie_Dog">Zombie Dogs"/> Zombie Dogs out with a Runestone that is making them fire imbued.
