You would be doing totally SAME ... you are QQQing about how Europe QQed ... so
Anyway they didnt say how mnay invites have been send .. and what I see right now in here nobody got it .. so only few compared to your 100k invites

this right here is my one real complaint about D3....the whole online only thing. I'm a father, a husband, a college student, involved with a veteran's association and about a million other things, the time I get to play is ALWAYS limited. I'm afraid that what little time I do get to slice away for D3 will be taken from me in the form of "Down for Maintenance". I REALLY wanted to have a offline mode.

I have been very less than impressed with some of Bashiok's responses to questions about the rune changes of recent, and that one just exemplifies my reasoning. The guy raises a great point, and one I share sentiment with. His response just side steps the problem raised, and doesn't really have enough weight to stand on it's own. There are not billions of possible combinations. Not all of the runes modify the skills that much or to a point varying gameplay enough to consider it completely different. Some builds will also just not seem viable to do. Most people that are concerned with these changes are hardcore and avid players, and therefore the blue responses to questions being raised are aimed at those players. A well informed player won't disrupt synergies and pair things together putting them at an obvious disadvantage for the sake of "diversity" and a "new gameplay experience." It will effectively do the same thing as WoW and make people feel trapped to play a specific build, even if it has looser restrictions. Although Blizz may not be enamored with the responsibilities for choices route, there aren't much alternative options for longevity other than replaying the game, different builds and skills. That's how D2 has stayed around so long (neglecting all aspects of D2 that were great that also happen to be in D3; ex item hunt). The unlocks follow the same path so there is no incentive for replay-ability. And even at level 60 if you decide to change things up a bit and switch your build what will you be doing? Just hunting for gear, doing the same exact thing, differently. The argument could be made that forcing to re-level a character is the same thing but at least there is a sense of progression while doing that.

ya patch 13 was an insane change on all levels. when u gonna get your skill calc site workin again?

=( dont even get me started on the horror of that. Im still not sure how im going to handle the graphic now.. the new runes...are.. horrible for being unique. before you saw a red rune, and you knew right away ! CRIMSON. you could tie that to spells.. now you have a odd rock with an odd symble.. not so easy now... and it takes away from it

Is the lag more present now when they are adding so much people to the beta?

Did monks really need their dodge nerfed that much? I agree that it was slightly OP, with 25% static and the additional 25% from the 3sec proc, but I feel that it would have been fine if both were reduced by 5% (and not 10%).

they nerfed all classes that had awesomely high mechanics. i checked all skills and runes i could see in the beta and seriously 90% of them got a GIANT nerf...

Seems like an artificial way to increase playability length.
