villarule123 Posted May 13, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2012 I know there was an open beta but will there be a demo for this? I've never played a Diablo game before so I'm not very willing to part with £30 when I'm not sure whether I'll like it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I'd be surprised too. This is one of the most anticipated PC games of the past decade, Blizzard wont need to have a demo to sell it. The thing will shift a ton of units. Speaking of which, I really need to get my desktop set up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briggaman Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Are any of you going to be on it tonight come 11:01pm? I'm sure the servers will be getting hammered, yet hopefully they are prepared after the stress test. Hopefully I'll be able to put in 2-3 hours and then get some sleep before work. I may even get in and sleep between 8:30-10pm. It's so close now. Also, what class are you all rolling? I'm sure I'll get through all of them given time, yet I think I'll go with a Barbarian or Wizard first. I wasn't too fond of the Barbarian in the beta, yet I'm going to give it another go.

I've never played a Diablo game before so I'm not very willing to part with £30 when I'm not sure whether I'll like it.. Yes, I believe there will be a 'demo' version shortly. It will be known as the starter edition, which is pretty much the content we saw for the beta. Diablo Starter Edition Explained Not long to go now. Brought it online from Blizzard. Shall probably begin with Barbarian first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Think I'm gonna go for Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted May 14, 2012 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 14, 2012 I was watching gameplay vids earlier today and I think I might go Barbarian. Looks a lot of fun. Won't be on until tomorrow night as i've gone for the box version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobler Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Monk was certainly the most fun to play in the Beta, but of course that was only the first few levels without most spells unlocked. I'll probably opt for witch doctor though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 It's time! And the servers fall down under the weight of 10 years of fan boys trying to login at once. BLIZZARD, Y U NO OFFLINE MODE?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sie Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Anyone not expecting the servers to completely implode? I've got some bad news for you then because Blizzard have a lot of fans and they're all trying to play your game at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Yeah, it's to be expected. If WoW expansions and SC2 have been anything to go by, it'll be terrible for 30 minutes or so, then as more people gradually trickle through, everyone should start to be able to login.

Davkaus Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 What did you want them to do, buy tonnes of extra server infrastructure that'll only ever be used for the first couple of hours? People have waited 11 years, another hour or two won't kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark8691 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Hardest thing for me about the Beta, was installing the Beta.. It seems the full game is going the same way for me. The installer is a buggy piece of **** Should get an achievement for just installing the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
