Olster posted a message on Level 60 capLevel cap is arbitrary. It could be 60 or it could be 500. When it's 60, as Bash, claims it works well with increasing your power each time you level. If it were 500 you'd get levels every few minutes and be getting minuscule improvements each time -- this would be ultra lame. 99 doesn't work for D3 so we get 60... that's completely fine with me and to be honest the WoW comparisons here are really misplaced. Next people will be like "ZOMG I saw the color red in Diablo, but they used the color red in WoW too! WTF Blizzard stop cloning WoW!"Posted in: News -

Olster posted a message on How Soon is Soon™ - Part III sincerely hope for a summer 2011 release, but I can't help thinking about PVP and Battle.net. They haven't released any information on their progress with these things, and they could delay the game if they haven't gotten very far yet. I hope this is not the case, maybe we'll find out at BlizzCon.Posted in: News

Olster posted a message on Diablo 3 Multiplayer To Be EncouragedPosted in: NewsQuote from "Daaavid" »I never liked playing diablo in single player mode, i just played in the times i got Real Down and coudnt connect to b.net.
Most of the issues of this thread are irrelevant for me, the ONLY REAL WORRY i have is about the anti cheat system of b.net2 (particularly the anti dupe system).
Dupes are the most annoying cheat that ever existed in b.net, totally ruins the economy of the game and its quite ridiculous to see so many people with expensive runewords like enigma, call to arms, LAST WISH etc.
I know its impossible to get rid of cheaters, but if blizzard doesnt commit themselves to avoid cheating after a few years of D3 launch (when the game stops to give a nice profit) i won't even think in buying D3.
Recently, after D3 announce and the ladder reset, i started playing D2 again but didnt took a month for me to quite playing for the same reason, DUPES. Whats the point of playing fair if u have to play for a whole month and sell ALL the gear you found in this period to get a rune that is probably duped?
I bet my D2 account that its the cheating that makes the most people dislike online playing.
I would like to type a little more but i dont speak english very well, i'm sorry if i was a little
incomprehensible :confused:
They are much better at managing servers and people on the servers now. I think their experience with WoW will allow them to be much more pro active against cheating. I'm willing to bet that Bnet will have strict rules against cheating and will be enforced. They will most likely make it impossible to cheat/dupe, hopefully anyway. -

Olster posted a message on Diablo 3 Multiplayer To Be EncouragedI plan on playing through the game on single player first to experience it all at my own pace. I hope though, that I will be able to then transfer my single player toon to the battle.net servers. That would be cool.Posted in: News

A good example of us paying attention though was the concern and thread about corpses not sticking around long enough. I read that thread, brought it up, and some discussion was happening on it. Later our lead tech artist Julian was reading through the replies, and got some ideas of how we may want to keep corpses on screen a little longer. Now we're playing around with some changes that shouldn't have a huge performance hit, while still keeping the corpses on screen for variable amounts of time. Hopefully it works out.
Is he talking about diablofans.com forums or just forums in general? If diablofans then I made that thread, or one of them anyway if there is more than one.

I'm gonna pretend that I influenced them whether it be true or not, makes me feel cool. :cool: - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Such an unfair advantage though. Just because you are an insanely quick clicker means you get all the loot and everyone else just wasted their time? This was a definite problem in D2 and I rarely got any loot because others were faster than me in most cases (being able to hold alt and click on loot super quick is not an indicator of skill), and in reality you can only hope to get one piece of loot while the others get snatched. There was no cases of people identifying the loot and then asking if others wanted from my experience either. It was kill boss - grab loot - bounce. That system sucked imo. I like how Blizz has it now. If anything it encourages people to share their findings and provide more chances for people to get loot.

The original Dawn of War intro is so sick.
"Incoming!"
And then the Dreadnaught comes and starts blasting the hell out of the hill.

The one for DoWII is cool too.

Goddamn Dreadnaughts are cool.
Okay so getting on topic, I thought the D3 trailer was pretty awesome. The best? Can't really say... maybe.

Peep that to see what others have to say about Mercs.

I have no interest in pursuing the rainbow discussion as its been done and done so I probably shouldn't even make this post, but I just can't resist stating my opinion.
The rainbow that you see during the gameplay video is being created by a waterfall. The exact moment you witness the rainbow it is raining and you see lightning flashes as well as hear thunder. That is not a realistic situation. People talk about how one can't deny rainbows because they are realistic and occur in nature. They don't occur when there is no light source as in sunshine. Sunshine is not very prevalent during a thunderstorm. That rainbow should not have been there.
In any case, this was an unnecessary post I know. So don't bother quoting it or responding, I just really had to satisfy my urge to say something on the matter.
There be my two cents, and I feel better.

Well put. If only everyone could see it that way these threads wouldn't keep popping up.

I defend Tyrael's efforts in stopping Baal by reminding you that he was already fighting the Wanderer and advising Marius in some telepathic way. He was a little distracted if you ask me :).

Oh wait. I think we've been misunderstanding each other. Or else I'm totally lost.

Yes I know. Blizzard North has Diablo 1 and 2 credited to them.
