The Diablo III Beta Draws to a Close
A very sad day for beta players, but what it means for release is great! May 15th is drawing ever closer.

In preparation for the launch of Diablo III on Tuesday, May 15, the beta servers will be brought offline on Tuesday, May 1. At that time, all beta accounts and character information will be reset. Leading up to Diablo's May 15 launch date, players will only be able to create comments and forum posts on the official Diablo III community site if they have pre-purchased Diablo III or have a StarCraft II or an active World of Warcraft game license attached to their Battle.net account. In the meantime, we encourage everyone to stay tuned to this website for exciting news and updates regarding the upcoming release.

Thank you again for your participation, and we'll see you soon on Battle.net!

While we do not have a precise ETA for when Beta Patch 17 will go live, we expect downtime to deploy the patch to be minimal. Please stay tuned to this thread for updates.

ooo, new patch. Wonder if we get to see any new glyphs in action yet again.

so 15 days to finish the sin wars books and hopefully develop some leet skills in tribes ascend.

I can see what you see not. Vision milky, then eyes rot.

When you turn, they will be gone. Whispering their hidden song.


Then you see what cannot be. Shadows move where light should be.

Out of darkness, out of mind. Cast down into the Halls of the Blind

I'm gonna miss playing D3 for those 2 weeks. Been in the beta since November and played it almost daily even with the limited content. Good indications that I'll be playing the full game on a pretty consistent basis.

May 15th draws closer...

Beta just makes you want to play the game even more when it does launch. I have had fun playing the beta, has been a good experience. But I am ready for launch and see what happens after Skeleton King and level 13....

Three weeks more than me ;) - I sold anything that was left of my privacy on the web and am probably now listed on every single mailing list of any phisherman out there for exactly zero keys on two accounts :D

May 1st, huh? Sounds about right for the beta. Going to miss it, but we will [i]finally[/i] get to play the actual game when the 15th rolls around. :)

I wasn't able to find a free one but then I spent all of 10m on google and the PoE forums looking. You can "buy" one by going to the official site and basically donating 10.00 to their Kickstarter. You get 100 pts for their microtransactions (they said they will only be selling cosmetic stuff, extra stash space, and more char slots -- which by the way is already HUGE at 4 very large tabs). The game itself will be F2P when it comes out. Levelling has not been grindy at all and frankly they have an absolutely ingenious potion system.
