might be loosely based on it, but not the same. the one in d3 is actualy a mountable beast like the ones in act5 for diablo 2 that let imps jump on their back

(this build was before D3 launched... looking back on it now - i had no idea what i was doing)
This boss looks exactly like Izual from d2 for some reason... anyone have any info on him?
There was an achievement in the list that someone posted that was, "Kill Izual before something something minions something 120 seconds." So, yeah, that's probably him. Can't keep well enough alone can he?
As for the models, HOLY CRAP! They're gorgeous. Even though you can't quite see all the exact textures in game, the effort put into these is astounding.
I would like you all to ponder something for a moment, If you notice on the Cow...it is wearing a crown..with horns attached...it also has utters...surrounded by pink teddy bears and ponies...I'm pretty positive we are dealing with the CowKings daughter, all grown up and looking for revenge on those who killed her father.
Male cows don't have utters...male cows are bulls..they have other things..there...
i really hope that pony thing is fake. i mean if thats leterally the secret cow level in diablo 3, blizzard has taken this 'complaining about rainbows' thing way too fucking far.
p.s: boobies! (had to say it, before anyone else did)
You're kidding, right? Considering it's a farcical level, how could anyone NOT expect ponies? What else would there be? Cows again?
i'd be fine with cows again. im sure alot of people would too. but it doesnt have to be cows, it just cant be pink and baby blue unicorns. i mean at the VERY least make them white with brown hair or something.
im not one of those people that complained about the rainbow in the launch trailer, and i never complained about d3 not being 'dark' enough, but making these pink and baby blue unicorns the secret level in response to the major uproar of the 'not dark enough' graphics is taking it too far. pink and baby blue unicorns have no place in the world of diablo
Let's just run through this here issue................. The D2 cow level wasn't some srs bizness thing, it was an easter egg of sorts brought to life by player created rumours/jokes. Read this if you want: http://diablo2.diabl...ecret_Cow_Level
It's a long running joke, yes, but they've already used it. The theme was cows that could wield polearms and kill us. And had funny moos. Now during the development of D3 a new topic arose, which some were unhappy about, but most could laugh off and make jokes about. I'm referring, as I'm sure everyone reading this will know, to the D3 colour scheme.
The fact that it was such a pointless issue made it laughable. The D3 team thought so as well, and designed a couple of shirts for competitions and such that had ponies and sunshine and rainbows on it. It gave people a laugh. The main game and storyline feature dark elements which hold true to the Diablo franchise, and that's all that matters on the subject. When brainstorming to create a new 'secret cow level' that has some comedic value and lets players - that might not have been there for Diablo 2, but followed the development of Diablo 3 all the same - get the joke, what would they use? Probably not the cows from D2....
Do you understand now? It's not a design flaw on their part that they used unicorns, and they're too colourful for you *HAHA*, that's the main point. And you missed it.

In the beta, the important stuff was giving code-names, however ineffective they may have been. If you look at the image name's for those, you see 'bigred':

I heard some one mention that there is a quest where we have to go fight Izual. I can't confirm this though. Perhaps it is in the strategy guide?
