Personally, I'd have no issues with them testing out the patch, then pulling it back down to add more, and having to wait longer.
It's all good Blizz....keep up the good work.
And if this is it for the patch? Then I'm cool with that too

Dec 11, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on The Wait is Over -- PTR Patch 1.13Posted in: NewsQuote from "Pryda" »Actually I see the big picture now. It was all business. Patch 1.13 wasn't made because they wanted to do something nice for the fans. Blizzard realized that ppl were getting more interested in D2 again, while waiting for D3 and they realized that A LOT of people just needed a little push to go out and buy the game again. So they decided to announce a patch that would essentially be a ladder reset to get the people hooked for a while. Good work, Blizzard, you did it again! /bow
I'm thinkin' somebody found out way too early that Santa was real, and hated him.
Let me explain this from a different perspective.
I'm a GnR fan. We had to wait 15 years for an album, and didn't hear a damned thing for....well...almost 15 years. There was confidentiality agreements, lawsuits, lawsuits against fans, fighting, bickering, anger...
Now, I'm also a Diablo fan. We've gotten updates, input, we're beta testing the game right now, and the company has a rep out there (Bashiok) answering all our questions, as best he can, almost daily.
Yeah, I'm thinkin they're doing it for the fans. -

I play solo, and slap a random password on my games..
Problem solved...lol -
Dec 11, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on The Wait is Over -- PTR Patch 1.13if the duping prob is fixed, that's gonna add a helluva lot to the difficulty in the game for some..which is a good thingPosted in: News
Beyond that, do we have any idea what content was added to hell difficulty? -
Dec 11, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on The Wait is Over -- PTR Patch 1.13I started doing some in depth, heavy handed research into the new effects of the chat gem.Posted in: News
There aren't any.
That is all -
Nov 19, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on More Hopes Dashed, 1.13 Delay Going StrongDoes anyone else notice that when Blizz puts out a game, it blows EVERYONE outta the water?Posted in: News
They can afford to put out a new game every 5 years if they want, because that game will sell, and make them cash hand over fist, for that 5 year period.
It's called quality, and dedication to their fanbase. -

This is a game many of us bought a decade ago.
We haven't put a dime into it since.
We're getting more free content. I've never heard of a company updating their games, for FREE, this far along after the release.
Take your time Blizzard..thanks again for all the hard work you put into your games.
Meh...we've just gotta kill time til the patch is released.... -
Oct 22, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on The History of DiablofansI'm glad I joined the site when I did. It seems like things are going to get interesting around here, with the coming patch and eventual D3 release.Posted in: News
Congrats to all the new members of the management team. It'll be great getting to know all of you, and having you block my 3 am drunken rants..lol
Thanks for the brief history Phrozen. Now lets make some more -

The artwork looks amazing now..not exact bright and cheery like was feared.
That looks...Diablo-ish...very diablo-ish -
Oct 1, 2009LordRazZ posted a message on Diablo II Patch 1.13- More Delays, Hopefully a Brighter FutureHi...I'm new here. What's Diablo 2?Posted in: News
Heh...just screwin with you guys.
I think we should all be used to the fact that a) Blizzard is extremely dedicated to all their games...
and They take forever...lol
The good thing is though, how many games do you know of that still get content updates a decade..lemme reiterate....A DECADE after it came out?
It could be worse though..the patch could be a nude cheat code for the Necromancer....*shudder* - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

I just joined myself about a week ago, and even started a blog to document the hilarious pitfalls surrounding my new paladin getting his ass whipped constantly..lol
Speaking as a new guy here as well, everyone is really cool, easy to talk to, and all around kick ass. Welcome again.

Bit funnier than the first. I'm still rusty, but the off-the-cuff humour is coming back to me.
Feel free to leave feedback on the blogs. I don't mind. I know there isn't a tonne of stuff for all of us to do right now, so I'm playing court jester.

I had that happen back in '04. Wasn't too pissed until I realized I'd lost a few chars, plus lost the template for my website, and had to redo about 200 pages, one at a time.
That was a shitty week all around.
Come to think of it, this one is gonna go within 6 months too...here's hopin that recording contract comes sooner than later..lol

I've got an 87 necro and a 37 pally right now I'm playing with, but I'm thinkin about beating hell with all 7 next patch...we'll see how it goes
Btw...I'll reiterate if I've said it before. A lvl 26 Avenger w/ bonesnap? Holy hell...weapon is prty much useless once you hit nightmare, but beating Meph in 6 shots is fun..lol
Well..I've decided to start a little blog, and see how far it runs. Give it a read if you'd like, and I'm sure it'll get more amusing as time goes on.

*note to self....don't post here drunk...do it at the GnR Forum instead...lol*

That, and not only do I get to play Diablo 2 a tonne, I get to talk about it just as much..lol..
Side note...forgot how much of a pain in the ass Skellies can be in the Cow Lvl....although corpse exploding that many hunks of roast beef probably makes it smell real nice..hah

Keep in mind, there was a hell of a lot of open room excavated inside that mountain, and who knows how far it goes down.
The top blows off, the insides cave in on themselves, you wouldn't see a massive eruption like a volcano.
From even the nearest town, it may have only sounded like a thunderclap, or again, percieved as magic being used in the distance (depth perception type thing..they think the spell went off a mile away, but a mountain collapsed in on itself a few hundred miles away)

And did I ever threaten murder for missing the other Z? lol....kidding...or maybe I'm not
I've joined so many forums over the years, I can't even recall
Here's a way to tell if it was me
Have I ever offended you, yet you couldn't help but laugh your ass off?
Have I ever whored my website/radioshow/band on you?
Do I owe you money?
If you've answered yes to any of those questions...proceed to step 2.

Keep the vulgarity, arguing, fighting, spamming, flamming and all around dickish behaviour at bay.
Stay on topic as best as possible, unless you have a really sweet amish joke..
And lastly, if a noob shows up, feed them to Baal?
Does that about cover it?
