The characters in the preview looked to be wearing only minor gear though. They had only white/blue items. I would imagine this boss would be solo-able once the game becomes released. Someone always figures out a way.
It look like it was the barbarian that got pick up and decapitated lol, maybe the bosses are going to have killer attacks that you have to block somehow, I'm going to re-watch the gameplay end and confirm this.
yep i just saw it again it was the barbarian, maybe a 1-hit KO move by bosses? it happen a 8:08 in this youtube vid http://youtube.com/watch?v=vi1lVqJSbsM thats so sick omg lol.
Was reading a GameSpot article that was posted before and they said that the last enemy that the team fought wasn't even a boss >.< Says that we will see monsters like that all the time!
The varied death animations are pretty cool. I wonder how this will change the game? I'd be willing to let all the bosses finish me off it it's that kick ass everytime.
i dont all bosses u to be soloable, maybe some, but the major ones u shouldnt be able to. i know this doesnt follow D2, where u can solo the whole game. but if we could solo every boss that completely throws off cooperative gameplay.
Was it just me.. or does it look like we actually have more of a challenge, and not being able to solo everything.
Im not sure if it was just my eyes, but did the boss pick up one of the people and crush them, killed them and were no longer seen after that?
and DAYYYM i love the physics in this game, lucky ive just brought a new processor and my 8800gt is going to fly through this game.
Because D3 will be a solo game as well they must make everything soloable.
I do hope they make it harder as you suggest though. Maybe they could encourage groupings by making the monster something like 90% tougher than the original with every person grouped. This was 2 people would be fighting a monster almost twice as hard but not quite. Assuming only in hp. If his damage went up... he'd kick all our asses.

Please don't sign that ridiculous art direction petition. I've waited eight long years for Diablo III, not for another Diablo II expansion. And shut up about the Necromancer being gone. Diablo II didn't have any of the same classes as the first game (except for Sorcerer/Sorceress).

white items actually, the weapons we're blue because they were imbued. no clue what the armor was but the color of it when it dropped was white.
the boss fatalaties are awesome imo, and yes its on the killing blow so i wouldn't worry about this happening randomly.

I hope (I hope...) for solo players the creature will be a bit adjusted. That's pretty much a necessity for a good solo.

If they do then I'll never finish the game! I'll be too busy purposely dying to see all of the awesome animations and gore.
