what Ardikus is trying to say is, it's going to end up the same thing as Diablo II. Most likely the last Act 4 waypoint will be popular, and doing runs of the last boss is what will be the outcome of this game. Why would someone go grinding mobs in Act II to have a chance at dropping rares, when theres a huge chance that killing the last boss in the game WILL drop it.
After people get strategies going, killing the last boss won't be too hard and will be farmed for items.
Unless Blizzard specifically bans that card, it should work (they are supporting it's bigger 7800 brother, for example).
Unfortunately, the 7300 wasn't fast even when it was new, so you're forced to the lowest detail settings at the lowest resolution to have a shot at avoiding a slide show. Unless you're on AGP, you can get a much faster video card for the price of a second copy of D3.... and I suggest you do it
If you're on a laptop and thus can't upgrade, consider that a new PC with Intel integrated graphics will be faster.

he won't be able to run it at all. 7300LE is an integrated graphics card, which is much slower than a 7300GS/GT which is already slow as it is.
sorry, you gotta get a new video card to run this game mate.
BARB OWNS.. with a good 2 handed weapon.. i saw the video of the 2h poison mace, that was crazy damage at around level 5 or whatever he was.. he was hitting 40-60s every shot, and 40s AOE with cleave.. whilst i saw a lv 9 barb with 2x 1h weapons fighting the skeleton king and only hitting up to 15-20 off mobs..
great replies guys, have yet to see the wizard, DH seems like it takes too many shots to kill stuff. Barb seems like its resource system regenerates too slow when you kill mobs.
for the people who have watched a few classes in the streams from the beginning, which did you think was the strongest class that mashed through the mobs the fastest and seems like it would be the easiest class to begin with in beta?
Q: If I live in Australia/New Zealand/Southeast Asia, what server will I play Diablo III on?
A: As with StarCraft II, players who purchase the Australia/New Zealand/Southeast Asia version of Diablo III will have their own regional servers, offering lower latency and more action during peak hours. While we encourage players to play on these servers, we recognize that many have longstanding friendships with North American players and would like to continue playing with them. Because of this, we're again giving Australia/New Zealand/ Southeast Asia gamers access to both regions' servers so they can choose where they'd prefer to play.
WOOOOOT? so they may have some new hardware setup in australia, maybe some new WoW australians servers too!
1st of March. In my opinion they will finish dev around Christmas time. then have 2 months of closed/open beta, then release it on the first. seems about right to me
Sorry, but i simply cannot afford this amount of money per month.
Your not taking in all the factors here. Even if i was to pay what if i don't have paypal? what if i do not have a credit card?. If it is like WoW with game Cards at every local store, in my area a store that sells Game cards are very far away and then i gotta figure out the transport fee etc to get there.
It is very annoying having to do something like this each month, when i can barely scrape up something like 15$ (in Australia its about 20$)
If i had to scrape up this money it would require me not buying as much food, or sacrificing something that could do health damage in the end. Nobody has to sacrifice their food to live on to pay for a game to play it online. As hard as it is going to be to get around 100$ to buy the game its self, im ok with that if its a 1 off thing. I simply cannot pay every month.
I'd pay a fee like 20$ for a battle net account, if it was for an unlimited time-use.
That way Blizzard get a lot of money from everyone, that money can go towards updates etc. Everyone spending money per month is just going overboard, they have WoW as their cash cow.
I really hope Blizzard does something reasonable. I understand maybe having Battle net completely free would mean no updates for games.
Except im sure many of the people here would pay a 1 off fee between 1-30$ for a "Battle net account" and have unlimited use. But monthly is just too much.
You guys are idiots rofl, obviously you havnt been reading the main thread in announcements. That means nothing because u can edit it and write d4 d5 d6 etc.

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
just wondering, what graphics engine is D3 based on? is it D2 engine, and upgraded d2 engine? the WoW engine? or a new one?
Someone said its like a crossover with WoW so it made me think it might be the WoW engine.
I dont have a problem if it was, because using the WoW engine might attract more people to play and get its hype up.
