    Quote from "Absolut" »
    StarCraft will always be a strategy-based game. No MMO for that franchise. Look at StarCraft Ghost.
    This statement is wrong on so many levels.


    As for the idea, well... I'm sure everyone thought of it at one time or another, but it was nice reading up on your view. Blizzard can make one heck of an mmo from this any time.

    Hahahah excellent.


    I am a bit worried about this toning die blut down a bit, but I understood it more as a technical problem from the interview (even considering the option of parental control), not something that will affect the finished standard-version product in a negative way.

    rly? A class based off an npc? Like what?
    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Come back of the assassin char in the form of the NPC Natalya. Any of the Merc Leaders from any town. Need I say more?
    Use your head... You are saying the 5th class will not be a returning class called "assassin", but rather a new class based on the assassin npc Natalya called an "assassin". I finally see what you mean...

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    So for ranged it could be the following.:
    -Rogue (Different Faction, not the sisters.)
    Quote from "Paladin88" »
    First time I hear that rogues have to be in a faction.
    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Did I say they did, not really I just proposed they could be...Did you actually read my post or just scanned through it before before trolling?
    I read, re-read your little sentences and I am quite sure you have no idea of what you are still talking about and am absolutely certain of the fact you don't have the faintest clue of what I was.

    Blizz can twist the lore to whatever angle suits them. So nothing is set in stone.
    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Basically you got it...It's their game, their world, they can basically do what ever the hell they want. So your just stating the obvious.
    You are trolling now. Just stating the obvious again.

    Quote from "Paladin88" »
    I see. This Iron Wolf class seems excellent. Btw, what the hell is it?

    Use your imagination, that would actually make your posts relevant.

    Hello, is this thing on?

    -Act 5 (Ranged Barbarian warriors, as was mentioned by Sabvre and his Mongols)
    Quote from "Paladin88" »
    Where exactly did we "meet" these nomadic warriors during the previous games?
    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Umm, let me think, Act5 all over the Bloody Foothills, etc. Those were all barbs and could of all been throwers or ranged if Blizzard chose to. Mount Arreat, one of the ancients was a ranged barb (double throw hatchets) For a guy that hates noobs who spew out nonsense your kinda rusty on your Diablo Facts. Or maybe you just trying to act dumb...
    You sir are a genius.

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Is this a pertinent comment that deserved you having to quote me to say...wut? Seriously, your basically the kind of person your signature flames. Someone who comes on to spew nonsense. I don't mind you discussing ideas or refuting points or even disagreeing with me. But at least try to make logical comments, then you'll even sound smart. Double bonus.
    After reading this hissy fit I am even more certain of the validity of my signature statement and I am sure that's what ticked you off since naturally, you recognized yourself as such a mindless drone fitting perfectly into this category. And now all that is left is an attempt to prove to yourself that your presence here will actually contribute with something other than releasing nonsensical "2 cents" upon innocent bystanders who have to read your bile. Contrary to popular troll opinion however, long posting and the evokation of "what kind of person are you" will not get you sympathy and to those such as yourself by rule of thumb I say: a better person - one that can argue his position with statements that do not conflict with eachother.

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Trolling....I think someone should report these.....? Nah, let's have fun and see what else you can say. Yeah like I said, I didn't feel like thinking up a name, so I said "with a better name". So your once again just trolling and stating the obvious.
    What you fail at comprehending is that it is not a name issue at all.

    And seing as how you like adding the phrase "your posts must have meaning" I ask you: Where is the substance in any of your comments? Another thing: Does the amount of "substance" you can gather up fit under a fingernail? Because there was somekind of black fungus in the edge of my pinky earlier this morning so I scrapped it up and flushed it down the toilet.
    Note that the second question is rhetorical so you don't have to attempt to flame on it later on.

    Quote from "Paladin88" »
    Only reason why they'd be brought back are the polearm weapons which combined with the ranged abilities could fit very well in the missing spot. It can even combine the assassin/rogue/bard philosophies. But having noone to say whether any spears, tridents etc. were dropped in the demos or if the barbarian class can utilize such weapons effectively with the parts of the skill-tree that we know, a discussion cannot exist.
    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Holy Sh*t, you actually made a half pertinent comment. Congrats.
    This discussion CAN exist, thus called speculation. Which most of these forums are based on as you might not be aware. And it's not just because we saw the act 2 merc using polearms that every warrior from that region fights as such. It just means that in D2, the ranged merc position was already taken by act 1 mercs therefore they didn't need to implement it on act 2 mercs. Do I even have to say this, you really can't think of it by yourself?
    Hitting random buttons on your keyboard without actually looking at what the other person is saying... again. I have quoted myself above for your reading pleasure.

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Seriously though I don't really appreciate your attitude, if your here to flame people who you don't agree with, just don't post.
    If you feel that you are being flamed please do report.

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    But anyone If I do see you posting these kind of comments again I will report them for trolling. So please use some maturity in your posts, you'll find that people will have much more civilized discussions with you and might even take you seriously down the line.
    I'm sorry, we were having a discussion? A discussion is something where parties exchange worthy opinions. Saying that I flamed you because I don't like your opinion (even though I did no such thing) is not a discussion.


    And to make this thing clear- I absolutely HATE having to read long arguing posts in forums etc, so come to the point next time.... if you have one.

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    Thanks.
    You're welcome.

    Another fine class. Gotta think of a cool name though.

    Or just a new character being a hybrid of previous 2 ranged classes.
    wut?

    Quote from "mattheo_majik" »
    -Act 2 Mercs, but a ranged regiment. (Hopefully with Auras or Passives and a cool new name)
    Oh, I agree- the "act II merc" name sounds lame.

    Only reason why they'd be brought back are the polearm weapons which combined with the ranged abilities could fit very well in the missing spot. It can even combine the assassin/rogue/bard philosophies.

    NEWS: By searching through these forums i have also come to the conclusion that the 5th class will be a gYpSiE ftw !! (classname includes "ftw")

    I also don't really see why they couldn't take an existing NPC and put a spin on him to make the character a lot more diverse. Imagination anyone?
    Learn to read. You obviously didin't understand anything I said.

    Quote from "EvilStarship" »
    In my opinion we almost definately will see a ranged class. Amazon seems unlikely because of gender, as does the rouge.
    Havez u tried dat new Oriflame red rose rouge? It's teh shit !!!
    Finally a cosmetics product for menz too.

    Do not equalize the rogue as a class with the "sisterhood of the sigthless eye".

    Quote from "EvilStarship" »
    I'm betting they're gonna take an interesting NPC from the previous games to the drawing board and see if they can't build something into an original character.
    *Nuh-uh

    And whether lances, spears etc. fall in the same category as two handed axes?? or if it is applicable in the Barbarian skill tree (I don't believe it's same as polearm staves like the monk uses) is important as well as to what the next class will be. If not then this question should have it's own thread as well.



    *A word used by cool people that are always right. So come to your senses and accept it.

    -"JUST TAKEZ IT !! Pleaaasee !!!! whaaaaaaa"

    .....and so on


    To tell you the truth it's just because of curiosity. I just have to know :D

    Quote from "Seth" »
    I was saying that the quoted post I was referencing was not considering that when it was asked if it will be based on "someone" from an older game, that someone could just as easily be an NPC or storyline character, it doesn't automatically mean it will be based on an old playable character. So, they wouldn't have lied when they said that they were not bringing back anymore characters from the old game since they would be bringing back a character based on the concept of an NPC- like a Horadrim Mage or a Vizjeri.

    It can't be an NPC. If Charsi for instance decided to join the "fight" what class would she be? Blacksmith? Nah... Rogue? OK. Boom, it's a returning class.

    A "concept" class based on what we've seen? ^_^
    Let's see what's left:

    • Witch
    • Healer
    • Innkeeper
    • Maid
    • Blacksmith
    • Rogue=Thief
    • Merchant
    • Sage
    • Caravaner
    • Drunk
    • Guard
    • Shaman
    • Prince
    • Alchemist
    • Shipmaster
    • Mercenary
    • Sorceror=Mage=your Vizjerei
    • Assassin
    • Angel
    • Amazon
    • Warrior
    • Archer=Bowyer (different from Rogue)
    • Priest
    • Archbishop
    • Necromancer
    • Druid
    • Townsperson
    • Master at Arms
    • Warlock
    • Paladin=Cleric
    • Bard
    • Cow
    ^Rough sketch. I'm not going to make flicks of their names since it will be the same thing. Also classes like "Iron Wolf", Bladesong or Angel don't mean anything. Classes revealed so far are very different and most importanty it is VERY obvious to someone who understands english what their "template" is just by hearing their names. Something too neutral like Soldier, Mercenary etc. or too specific like Archer will not be included either. Class names should be unisex as well considering both genders will be playable.

    From all these let's see which ones make sense to conceptually use either a bow/crossbow or that aren't too alike the existing playable characters:


    • Rogue
    • Assassin
    • Bard
    Hey, look ! They're all previous classes !

    Maybe we should add shapeshifting archer. That might work, right? :D

    And all these default char designs are very similar. Fusion is very likely. Well either that or we are not going to use ranged weapons.
    \/
    \/
    Which come to think of, might actually work. Seriously. Any info on dropped bows on the demo anyone?

    I also was timing out before even while using MF. However I only visited this site from public PCs at my faculty and at internet cafes. And yes I did not select "remember me".

    I only recently returned to diablofans, a day before the site visual update so I assumed that was it.

    These past few days I am not getting logged off of my home pc so problem solved.


    You need to have "remember me" selected.

    Notice that he did not say "character", though. It could be based on an NPC or something.

    You did mention that it's being revealed next year, and that it's someone from the previous games?

    posted a message on New Video card.
    You guys buy pretty much solid "name" power supplies there from newegg and the like, so I guess it's probably accurately a ~600/650w psu.
    You don't need a better power supply even if you overclock, unless you use multiple cards or something like a GTX295.

    My advice? With that graphics card you already have (the evga) I bet you've probably played through most blockubster "demanding" games there were.

    So why not wait a month or two until newer generations from ati and nvidia come and then see what's on the market and what games need a more powerful graphics card? Keep your cash for now, your comp is fine (Yeah I know it's hard not spending money). Prices of current hardware will drop as well, but always try to get double, tripple times what you already had when you decide to splurge cash.
