    posted a message on Runes: Good, Bad, or .....
    [quote name='Vergoth']I think u guys are sick calling runewords too common. My whole time playing d2 (at least 5 lvl 90-100 chars) i never found the top rare runes even once. The only reason I think they were too common was because A) people were duping them, B) chinese gold farmers puting millions of hours in to sell them. Finding one high lvl runeword by yourself was near impossible =Pquote]

    Exactly. And that's what people would do. That's how they became so common.

    The third spell she uses is very clearly charged bolt.

    That's the static field thing I was talking about. The Lightning looked more like it was traveling through the ground, which is what I always imagine Static Field as opposed to flying through the air, which is how I remember Charged Bolt, I'm pretty sure that's what it was in D2 (I haven't made/played a sorc in a VERY long time). Granted, it does look similar to Charged Bolt, and maybe if they make the animations better that's what it will be, but it just looks like Static Field right now, traveling along the ground and such.

    I don't necessarily want passive/defensive/offensive option, more of a "hey lets all attack this guy right now" or "lets leave him for last". If you dont have that option and you fight bosses with lots of small guys around him then you will loose the control of power your summons give you and make it much more difficult then the classes that can focus fire. I just think a simple attack control could greatly fix this.

    I agree, I had the biggest pain in the butt killing Andy with my summon necro, cause all my skellies would be like, "Oh look! A fallen! Let's kill it and ignore the large demon woman attacking our master!" It would have really helped on certain quests though, because I would've taken out the big bad monstie instead of having my minions attack the first thing they could get their hands on. But I also must agree with italofoca, I've yet to see it taking place with the WD, but that isn't to say there won't be another class that you will see this sort of thing implemented. Fingers crossed!

    Watch ~20 first concept arts under category "Personal". Could those concept arts be from the new mmo? Those are not under category "starcraft" like other starcraft concept arts are and the shots dont look starcraftish except those starships look like protos ships.

    Two things.
    One: I hate you africa, I've been stuck reading the Starcraft Wiki for 6 hours because of you!
    Two: If this MMO is unannounced, how do people know about it?

    Choosing where your lightning go is a no to me, since thats what lightning is about: randomness.

    And if we go the logical way, if the color depends on how hot the lightning is, then we could assume that when you are more powerful, its hotter, and so the color would change accordingly.

    So the lightning would always be white, but the outline would be purple first, then as you gain level it gets more blue, then green, then yellow.. orange.. and end up red.

    ...they should just include customizable lightning color ^.^

    The only logical way she could actually use lightning at all is by being able to change the amount of - and + atoms in a thing, but choosing where it bounces is a no go, since the lightning happens so fast, she wouldn't be able to think fast enough.

    The color thing. Someone mentioned earlier that the color has nothing to do with the actual heat, but is instead an indicator of what is in the cloud it comes from. I think it should change color depending on where you are! If it's raining it should be blue, if it's hail it should be... Whatever that color was. If it's all dusty it should be orange. So on and so forth.

    Speaking of Charged Bolt....

    does the video here http://pc.ign.com/dor/objects/714955/diablo-iii/videos/diablo3_blizzcon08_101008.html not show some form of charged bolt in action? I hope it looks better in the final release but I'm pretty sure this is it.

    Also with the flashbangs a previous reply mentioned - would be cool to see sparks fly. I love particle systems in games (I think Nox did a great job of using particles) and I think it would really complement the lightning strikes.

    I see a static field type thing going on, no charged bolt. Unless you're talking about the purple magic missile she uses a lot.

    posted a message on Waste of time [No LAN in D3]
    Personally, I'm hoping for an M rating myself. Wouldn't be Diablo 3, to me, without it.
    That is to say, if you're kids aren't MATURE enough to handle b.net, they aren't MATURE enough to play Diablo 3. Yeah.

    posted a message on Gold farming and gold spammers- save the Chinese children!
    Quote from "SFJake" »
    WoW is already like that... see someone spamming gold, report in 2 clicks, you never see them again. But then more with random names will appear.. and this goes on forever.

    I don't see why people panic so much about it. Blizzard can't stop it entirely, and yes it will affect the economy, its not a -good- thing but its not going to kill the game. People need to stop getting so paranoiac over these. "OMG MY EXPERIENCE WILL BE RUINED BY CHEATERS". The only reason its going to affect you is because you care too much. Stop it. Stop living in other people's world and just care about yourself and your experience.

    Things happens around you in the game and you can't stop it. Its not going to be as out of control as D2, Blizzard is making sure of that, but a lot will still happen. Stop caring and live with it. Please. Because it won't ever stop.

    When I try to game with my friends on D2, it's annoying to have a block of text come up, blocking 1/4 of my screen. Then a monster comes out of it, kills me, and since I'm the tank, kills my allies.

    It pisses me off when I play a game and I get craploads of spam from 3 different guys, and I can't see that 1/2 of my screen anymore. I just want to be able to play and not have to listen to the spammers. The greatest solution of all, for me, would be 2 things, one is a private game where no one can talk to you except the people in it, and two, bringing back LAN. Private for friends I don't live close to, and LAN for, well, the ones I do. If they do that, I'll be happy.

    posted a message on Diablo Books Part II
    I got the books, now what order am I supposed to read them in? Lol, sorry for starting a new thread but the other one was locked or whatever you call it. I'm just not sure if I should read them in the order they happen, or the order in which they were written.

    If they do, all respect will be lost for them. A Western MMO? Really? Is that the best they can come up with nowadays?

    Is this something I download or buy in a store? Sounds like something I'd like to play.
