I'm thinking about it. There are a few problems like lets say you are playing as 2 friends. At level 30 one of you died. Now you both have to start over again since level gap would be so huge. At 3 players, restart chance is tripled and at 4, quadrupled(dunno if its right word).
I will definitely try it with a friend but will go solo/random co-op if its way too much work
There was a thread in EU forums suggesting an "Always move button". It will work like always attack button in Diablo 2(shift). You'll be able to bind it to any key and while pressing it, your character will move instead of attacking even if there is a monster in your hitbox.
There were a blue reply saying that the idea was great but it won't be finished in release, but it will be added later with a patch.
Edit: Found the answer from nakatoir:
We just wanted to let you all know that this feedback that you have given on a dedicated click to move button is excellent, and we may implement this, the option for this would be unbound by default.
Sadly, this option would not be ready for when the game is shipped. While it would not be ready for ship if we do end up implementing it, I hope that you are all glad to hear this news ^^
Basic attack will be and always was useless at mid and late game. You can always pick 5 skills and keep your basic attack if you like it THAT much. But with resource generator/user system, you should use skills that generate resource or use very little of it instead of using basic attack.
I'd call them "Awesome things that make your skills glow and stuff" but I doubt Blizz will go for it. Skill rune too sounds cool tho. I never really liked name "runestone" since it keeps reminding me runewords and runes from D2.
I too entered all contests I could find to win a beta key, I watched 6 hours of Reddit stream, registered to bunch of sites(can't even remember how many), woke up at weird hours to surf some of 'em etc. But overall most of those contests were fun! And the main reason I do all that stuff is that. I found myself a nice IRC diablo channel, this forum(which contains much less whiners than blizzard forums) and a lot more thanks to those contests. Yes, most likely I won't get a key, but if you try to have fun instead of relentlessly going after a key, you might find yourself having fun instead of crying in forums
Even tho I say to myself that I won't play Diablo 2 anymore, I formatted my pc last week and it took me only 6 days to reinstall Diablo 2. That game stole my years let alone days/weeks! I failed a course in university because I played Diablo 2 with a bunch of my friends till morning the night before a final once... I read Book of Cain twice already(mainly because trivia contests but still) and played Diablo 1 for years, so yes, I too hope that Diablo 3 won't tale that many hours of my life
Blizzard is THE master of hype. Every time before a Blizzard release they manage to get millions of people hype for months, which is pretty damn impressive. I hate facebook but they have almost 1.9million likes there which is just... wow. So of course I am excited. I can hardly wait to play the game!
I like the changes. The only thing I don't like about the patch is new skill UI. It just don't seem "as polished" as rest of the game. But I'm pretty sure it will be great before game launches. From what I saw from beta streams, there are not many bugs, but I've seen a few mobs that do no damage even tho they hit you. Nothing that can't be fixed easily...
Blizzard has never done anything like that before so I doubt they will. They might add Blizzard items tabs and sell items from there, but I seriously doubt it since no blizzard game has items that can be bought by real money that gives in game advantages to players. They only sell cosmetic items, which has no impact on gameplay...
I demand an achievement called 'Feeding Diablo', you get it for feeding him a level 60 HC character.
Lol thats an achievement I won't get... Maybe after a year or so when I have everything I want. I'm actually expecting a lot of death achievements for HC, or sth like "Fight Diablo in HC mode for 666 seconds or more".
Personally I'd rather be fighting for RMAH in Hardcore than worrying about having HC from the start.
I don't think they can put RMAH in HC. Lets say you bought an item using real money. Then died 10 minutes after transaction and item is lost forever. People would rage harder than Blizzard can calm down, I don't see it happening. Also people who hate the idea of RMAH will also play HC since HC has no RMAH, Blizzard would also lose support of those players if they added RMAH to HC
Inferno will take some time to get used to, in my opinion. You'll have to learn which mobs have which resistances, what to do at a boss, what resistances to use at act x etc. It will be hard, but I'm pretty sure we'll see people that will try to clear Inferno HC pretty soon.. I for one could not finish Diablo 2 Nightmare HC even tho I played the game for years
First of all, let me say, I love Blizzard's game's soundtracks. But since Blizzard makes games that we play for years, and the same music gets boring after some point. So I started to create my possible playlist, and want to find new songs to add to the list...
My current playlist is:
1- Muse - Apocalypse Please
2- Justice - Genesis
3- Lacuna Coil - Halflife
4- Lush - Ocean
5- Muse - Butterflies and Hurricanes
6- Muse - Knights of Cydonia
7- Pixies - There goes my gun
8- Kurban - Sorma
9- Lacuna coil - Swamped
10 - Lacuna coil - Entwined
11- Massive Attack - Angel
12 - Bastion - Setting Sail, Coming Home
13 - Björk - Army of Me
I'm pretty sure I'll add to/change this list a lot, but I'm curious what will you be listening?

This is possibly my Witch Doctor build. I think it will have great mana and health regain as I fight hordes of demons, as well as nice AoE.
Doggies will tank the front and get sacrificed if necessary and spam AoE spells while I regain my mana from dying enemies
