THERE IS NO BETA YET, THIS IS FOR FUTURE BETA'S.

For those of you who want a shot at the D3 beta...

You must have a Battle.net account and have completed a Beta profile. Blizzard maintains a support page with detailed instructions on accomplishing this.

In order to be eligible to participate in future beta tests, you must create a beta profile. A beta profile is a snapshot of your current system specifications. It includes such information as how much RAM you have, available hard drive space, your graphics card and driver, and other information about your system. We gather this information to ensure that we are able to test our games on a wide range and distribution of systems.

You can see more information about this in Blizzard's Beta Opt-in FAQ.

I've recently come across some photo's that were taken at Blizzcon 2010.
Some of which I think are worth talking about.

This is a photo of Lanzuul's Minion.

I Noticed that the art displayed was dated at 2008!? And only just now made its appearance at Blizzcon 2010.
Which leads me to wonder, who is Lanzuul?
Is he some kind of Evil Sorcerer? A demon? A Human?? I'm curious to find out.

I also have come across a new Skeleton King Art concept. Very interesting!


This is a mystery Monster, no info was given or discovered about this particular Monster at Blizzcon 2010.. It has been called Monk Monster (Not official)


The Sand Golem, has made a reappearance at Blizzcon 2010. I wonder what this means?


What do you think?

I have more photos coming, will update this Thread soon.

Edit: Added Q&A Panel of Blizzcon 2010

This is getting off topic, and getting rediculous.

For once in my life...I actually have faith that Blizzard will FAIL to dissapoint me.
Meaning, I believe that Blizzard will get everything right this time.
(Spam, bots, and other annoying shit)

Also, I highly doubt that Blizzard will limit our account making ability.
I say this, because they know we probably know we wont need multiple accounts.
Factor in the fact that each character will unlock all skills as you level...
So there is no Hammer din, FoH Din, Ice Sorc, Fire Sorc......
Each character you will make, will be able to do everything in the tree....
So, why would you need multiple accounts? Mules??
As said before, its not likely we will have such low amounts of space as we did in D2.
Mules will not be needed, in that I also believe that we will have a universal stash which will make mules obsolete.

If theres anything i Missed.....tuff.

(And yes my sentence structure and grammar is awesomely aweful.)
(Glad you like it, you nazi's)

ME: "So When can we expect Diablo 3?"
Blizzard: "Soon."

ME: "Whats behind your reason to make us all wait so long?"
Blizzard: "I'll tell you!......soon."

ME: "Ok...When will you give us some straight answers?"
Blizzard: "Soon......"

ME: ".........I....I."
Blizzard: "*Interupts* SOON!"

ME: "Do you know when I am going to murder all of you...."
Blizzard: "......Soon?"

ME: "Precisely! *Punches Blizzard in the face*"
Blizzard: " *Dies* "

I myself am interested in seeing how they intend to give achievements in Diablo 3.
I wonder if the achievements will be a "usable" item or something whilst in-game.
I agree, Blizzard is on the right track.

It's not likely that the bosses will run from you.
Making changes like that would mess up the game mechanics..
Using your example: If you fight a Boss, the Boss kills you, he runs away somewhere and your stuck looking for him again.
This would hinder gameplay online with other users, as they may not have the same problem with that boss.
That would sanction players who have died because of that boss, and those who haven't.

Jay Wilson Interview

The Monk

Diii.net: Let's start off with some Monk questions.
Jay Wilson: Okay.
Diii.net: We saw 8 Monk skills at BlizzCon (all detailed in Diablo Wiki). All were melee offensive or defensive. Can you give us some idea of what other skills the character will have at his disposal?
Jay Wilson: Most of the Monk's skills will focus on combat skills and attacks, along with his various escape skills. And we talked at Blizzcon that we're likely to put some defensive and supportive abilities on him. Possibly Auras. We've not done the next round of skills on him yet so we?re not exactly sure.

Diii.net: Really? That's handy, since I was also going to ask if he'd have any co-op or party-boosting skills.
Jay Wilson: We definitely want to do that with one class. Whether or not it's the Monk hasn't yet been decided. The Monk does seem to be the logical choice. The only reason we might not do with him is that he's too logical.

Diii.net: You want to mix it up?
Jay Wilson: Exactly.

Diii.net: There was talk of the Monk's lore, that the Monks have 1001 gods and they give themselves tattoos to honor their gods and celebrate their glorious achievements in life. Are any of his skills going to be representative of those gods? Say there's a fire god, and the Monk would have a fire attack in His name?
Jay Wilson: Yes. Leonard Boyarsky is our lead world designer, and he's definitely talked about some of the mythology of the Monk. And relating them to some of the Monk?s skills.

Diii.net: On that topic, players are wondering if we'll see those tattoos on the monk in the game.
Jay Wilson: I think some of them are in already. As to whether we see more during the course of the game, that?s undecided. It's tied to the story arcs we create for the game.

Diii.net: Seems like a lot of work too, for the graphics?
Jay Wilson: Not necessarily. IF we have them over the course of the game it's fairly problematic. How are they seen through his equipment? If they're part of his base texture then that's a little easier.

Diii.net: The Monk has a staff and the fist weapons. Will he have any weapon specific skills? Like dual wielding with just the fist weapons?
Jay Wilson: We're talking about that. One of the things we've talked about with the Monk is that a lot of his skills don't really use his weapons. So he's doing melee skills with his weapons almost holstered. For instance, Debilitating ... I think it?s called Crippling Wave now. We change them a lot and I get mixed up on the titles. Anyway, the Crippling Wave skill seems like it should be a staff skill. It?s kind of AoE, he does it and affects a lot of guys around him. So it's a possibility that we'll do skills and redefine them based on combat styles and have those styles have a weapon preference.


Diii.net: The monk has a small shield on his arm in the concept art. Is that just decorative or ornamental, or is that an example of an actual equipment option for the character?
Jay Wilson: It's part of his armor. The artists were trying to visualize the monk. One of the challenges is to do it by remaining faithful to the lore, and he needed armor. What?s armor for a guy like that? They were exploring ideas of bracers and just defensive aspects of things on his arms. That gave him a lot of freedom of movement, but also protected him.

Diii.net: That was a question that I saw in our forums, people were wondering how the monk could use heavy plate mail and still do all of his high motion combo attacks.
Jay Wilson: Well we do different versions of armor for every character. The Diablo II Sorceress could use heavy plate mail without actually looking like she was covered in heavy plate mail. For us, our focus is to make sure that every character has armor that they look cool in. So the Monk's armor isn't going to look like heavy plate armor. It's going to look like a shirt, what our imagination of what the Monk's armor could be. It's definitely going to be equipment, but he?s not going to look like he?s covered in metal, like the barb is likely to look.

Diii.net: One other question on the Monk's armor. Traditionally in RPGs, Monks have bonuses to light armor and penalties to heavy armor. Is that something you guys are looking at?
Jay Wilson: No. We're an item based game. The idea of a character that doesn't use items is foreign to our basic game philosophy. So one of the things we decided when we were creating the Monk was that we were not going to explore that aspect of the character. We're going to make a Diablo Monk, and the Diablo Monk uses items.

Character and Skill Questions

Diii.net: Just as an FYI, our readers seem fairly unanimous in preferring mongrels? to zombie dogs? if you guys are still debating that name choice. I think you said it had gone back to Zombie Dogs at Blizzcon, so of course fans then preferred Mongrels instead.
Jay Wilson: I like Mongrels better too, so I'll use that as a weapon to try to convince the team.
Diii.net: I can send one of the PR guys the link. Look, fans said that!
Jay Wilson: *laughing* Well that?s great.
Diii.net: Because if someone says something on an internet forum, it must be true.
Jay Wilson: Yes.

Diii.net: We saw 30-35 skills for the Wizard (30), Barbarian (35), and Witch Doctor (34), at Blizzcon. Can you give us an idea how close to the final skill trees those are? Almost ready, or they?re still very preliminary and we?re still going to see lots more higher level skills?
Jay Wilson: In terms of the number of skills, that?s about right. In terms of the skill tree we're um? we're still playing around with the actual layouts of skill trees and the working of the skill system. The skills for the Wizard and Barbarian their skill trees were very solid. We like their skills, though there are a few still missing. Especially for the Wizard, there are skills we didn't put into her tree that we?re still defining, especially at the high end. The same for the Barbarian; we've got a few skills on the way for him. But for the most part, the content of those trees is more or less correct.

Diii.net: Based on playing those two characters and examining their trees, the Wizard has tons and tons of attack skills and very few passives, while the Barbarian has an awful lots of defensive passives. Early on he didn't have very many active skills. So fans were thinking we?d still see a lot of changes, and especially that the Wizard would be getting some more interesting passives.
Jay Wilson: *sounding thoughtful* Um? yeah, the team has done more passes and passives on the Barbarian, so his are more developed. The Wizard is a little bit harder to do passives for. If you look at the Barbarian in D2, you see the same thing. A lot more passives and less actives than the wizard in D2. I think that?s more a difference between a melee char and a magic wielder.
The fact that the Barbarian has a lot of passive defense is because he's supposed to be tough. While I think that the Wizard probably doesn't have enough passives, I would agree with that statement, keep in mind that they are two different classes.

Diii.net: Another follow up on that issue. People are wondering if the skills will be like Diablo 2 or more like World of Warcraft. Will we see more skills forever, or get the top level at level 30ish?
Jay Wilson: Diablo 2. We're following the same model. Here essentially our Nightmare and Hell difficulties are an extension of normal difficulty, not a continuation of more content. So normal difficulty ends our core game, and then nightmare and hell are replays of them on higher skills levels. So we are going to allow you to continue and develop your skills into the higher difficulty levels.

Diii.net: Do you guys work and plan in advance to plan multiple potential builds for each character? Or do you just throw in as many cool skills as you can and see how players find ways to use them?
Jay Wilson: A little bit of both. We try to anticipate what we think will be good builds. For example, there?s lots of things we put into the wizard, to try to make a battle mage more viable. But sometimes we put in skills that we?re not 100% sure is an awesome skill, but that we think somebody will find an awesome use for. We try to plan things ahead of time, but we?re not foolish enough to believe that the three of us who work on skills can come up with as many possibilities and variations as the millions of players who will take the work we've done and have fun building stuff with it. We mostly try to make sure they have the tools to have a lot of freedom and create a lot of cool stuff.

Diii.net: Can you place your heads into the lion's jaws and name the 3 of you who work on skills?
Jay Wilson:Myself, Wyatt Cheng, and Julian Love, our lead technical artist. Oh actually 4. Chris Haga does a lot of skill work as well.


Diii.net: The Witch Doctor build seems fairly narrow in concept. He?ll always have mongrels for tanking, some mini-mage support, and some minion attacks and a bit of mind control. Looking at his skill tree now, there doesn't seem to be that many potential Witch Doctor builds, which isn't true of the Wizard or Barbarian. Can you comment on that? Is it just that we don't know enough about the Witch Doctor yet?
Jay Wilson: The Witch Doctor is less developed than the Wizard and the Barbarian. His skills are on what we call a second round, a second revision, while the Barbarian and Wizard are firmly in their third, maybe even their fourth revision. So as every time we revisit the systems we expand the abilities. It's based on playing them. We discover basically the same things, and we'll say something like, Oh, this class seems a little bit more focused than we wanted. We can?t make this kind of build the way we wanted to? So we end up expanding them over time.
In the game, every class is different. Some classes offer themselves up to a lot of variations. Some classes tend to have a lot more focus. We saw that in Diablo II, some classes had fewer variations and fewer possibilities than the others. That's not really our goal though. Our goal is to make sure that every class is equally diverse in the types of builds they can be made for.

Diii.net: That's what players hope for long term, but as you said earlier, it's amazing the variety of things players find to use once they have the game in their hands. Look at all the weird builds in Diablo II.
Jay Wilson: The hardest thing as designers is relinquishing control. That's hard to do as a designer. We have to accept that. We have to sometimes say, Here's a cool skill, we?re not really sure what to do with it. Unless it's just crap. Q&A can go, This is just crap. And we'll fix it. And make it better. But it's really difficult sometimes to do that and really truly turning your game over to the community is hard. You have to stop thinking, This is the kind of wizard I'd like to build. so you aren't keeping the game one way so you can build that. You have to allow for other things. That's the biggest challenge, and it?s something we work on and iterate on constantly.

Diii.net: Everyone seems pretty happy with the function and form of the Barbarian's Fury resource, but nothing has been revealed about the non-mana resources that the Wizard and Monk will use. Can you give us some insight into what kind of play style their resources are meant to encourage?
Jay Wilson: Well for the Wizard we want to enforce the fact that she?s a glass cannon. I don?t think it?s fun to ever run out of mana. I?m not really interested in an extended resource for her. For the WD we?re okay with mana, since he?s got some pretty good skills to recover mana that also double as attacks. And he?s not defenseless when he?s out of mana. He's got pets and ways to attack with them that aren?t mana intensive. For him that makes mana fairly interesting.
For the wizard, when she?s out of mana she just dies. And that's not fun. So if anything, we want to encourage how she plays. So she?s the kind of character that blasts first and asks questions later. Very vulnerable. So we want to implement a system that makes her more blasty, but even more vulnerable. We want to make that a choice for the player.Do I want to make myself more vulnerable in exchange for being more blasty. And that's a cool gameplay pull there.
For the Monk um? I'm not ready to talk about him yet since he's just too early. We still haven't decided exactly what we want to do with him. We're still playing around with his resource system.

Diii.net: Do you envision the health globes will boost those other resources in the way that the Wizard and Witch Doctor were gaining mana from them at Blizzcon?
Jay Wilson:Um, maybe? *sounding intrigued* Usually in the third or fourth skill revision on classes we look at that kind of thing. For the Witch Doctor we figured that a lot of the mana things we had on the Wizard would work better on the Witch Doctor. We were having trouble maintaining enough mana while play testing the Witch Doctor. Especially if players didn't take a specific mana recovery skill. So we focused on spreading that out across a lot more of the class so he can pull mana back more easily. When we get to other classes I'm sure we'll look for more of that.
But the key is that we don't necessarily want to. we don't want to cannibalize an existing gameplay mechanic. So when you take health globes that are already important, and you make them even more important, then that doesn't really create gameplay. For the WD, the health globes weren't that important a lot of times, since he very rarely took damage with his pets, so for him by enhancing his desire for health globes, we?re really putting gameplay where it wasn't. So whatever we?re designing a class that?s what we look at.

Items

Diii.net: Are there going to be any completely new item types?
Jay Wilson: Will there be any completely new item types?... Yes. *laughs* That's all I'm going to say.
Diii.net: Does that mean the Monk's fist items? Or something else.
Jay Wilson: *pauses* That's all I?m going to say. You asked the question. Are there going to be any new item types?? That's all I'm going to say.

Diii.net: Skill runes?
Jay Wilson: Yes. We will have skill runes.
Diii.net: They're still being reworked and you don't have any further comment?
Jay Wilson: They're not being reworked, we had tons of skill runes on the Wizard and the Barbarian but they were so spotty across the entire class we thought it would be more confusing to show them off than to not. So we just disabled them all for the BlizzCon build. But they're all still there and they work just fine.

Diii.net: Are we going to see returning set or unique items from Diablo 1 or Diablo 2?
Jay Wilson: *pause* Uh? probably. The game's itemization is done fairly late in development. The itemization in general is done fairly late in development. So at that point we'll be building unique items and looking all over the world for ideas and I'm sure we?ll look at the previous games.
Diii.net: Weapon switch hotkey?
Jay Wilson: No. We took that out.
Diii.net: Oh, I loved that feature in D2.
Jay Wilson: Mostly we took it out because the only examples we could come up with of how people used it were somewhat exploitive. Most frequently people used it by accident and wondered where the freak my weapons went. So it didn't seem a useful feature for anyone but a very small portion of the audience that used it to swap items for magic find purposes, which seemed not a great super fun reason to swap weapons. There were probably some other uses, which I'm sure I'll be reminded of in the forums.
Diii.net: There were a lot of specialized builds that found it essential to use two sets of weapons. Hybrid Amazons, chiefly. Used a bow and also a javelin/shield.
Jay Wilson: Yeah.

Lightning Round

Diii.net: These are the lightning round questions. These are a bunch of quick topics that you'll probably say no comment on. If you can?t give any new information on them just say pass and I'll go on to the next one.
Jay Wilson: Okay.
Diii.net: Fifth character.
Jay Wilson: Pass.
Diii.net: PvP?
Jay Wilson: Uh? we will have PvP in some form. And we're working on it now, and it's pretty awesome, and it'll get announced at a future date.
Diii.net: Are we going to see any large info releases before next year's blizzcon?
Jay Wilson: *pause* I dunno. That's a question for Ryan. (The PR guy.)
Diii.net: Mercenaries?
Jay Wilson: Like hirelings?
Diii.net: Yeah. In the past you've said you want to do more with Hirelings in D3, but you've not given any details on them yet.
Jay Wilson: I can't give any details on those yet.
Diii.net: Guild support online?
Jay Wilson:Um? we don?t really know yet. We're not working on battle.net yet.
Diii.net: Respecs. Cost, gold mechanism, any specifics?
Jay Wilson: We will have respecs. We haven't determined the mechanism yet, but we're definitely trying to do something different than a wholesale pay a token price and get all your skills back. We want to have a higher price than that.
Diii.net: Gambling in the game?
Jay Wilson: *pause* Undecided.
Diii.net: What percent are you complete with the entire project, or any of the individual acts.
Jay Wilson: Now that's a sneaky way to try to figure out what our release date is!
Diii.net: *laughs* Oh I know that already. I'm just trying to get a percentage now.
Jay Wilson: No, we don't really measure percentages. We don?t really know.
Diii.net: Do you plan on allowing voice support in game?
Jay Wilson:Uh, probably. Well yeah, I think that's one of the core features Battle.net said they're going to support.
Diii.net: Are there going to be different character titles for completing difficulty levels or quests or other such things.
Jay Wilson: Wow, that's a cool idea. *sincerely* Uh? I don't know?
Diii.net: People are wondering about the single player save state. If it's going to save the entire world as is, like Diablo 1 did, or if it'll just save your progress and reset everything else, like Diablo 2 did?
Jay Wilson: *pause* Uh? no comment.
Diii.net: Any changes in your plans about the red outline around targeted monsters?
Jay Wilson: No.
Diii.net: So it's still in?
Jay Wilson: It?s still in and it's not going anywhere.


Diii.net: Are we going to see any more monster types from Diablo I that weren't in Diablo II? Such as Hidden, Knights, Horned Chargers, etc?
Jay Wilson: Um? I would have to review our monster list to know precisely if they're in Diablo I and not Diablo II. There are a few more returning from Diablo 2, but I don't think there are others from Diablo 1 that weren't in D2 as well?
Diii.net: The Talisman. You said initially it was some sort of stat-boosting thing, but it's been disabled for the past year and a half, in playable builds anyway.
Jay Wilson: Mm-hmm. It's still on hold.
Diii.net: People are wondering if there's going to be some mechanism to allow greater character diversification in stats, given that we can not manually assign our own attribute points in Diablo 3. There will be something more than just finding +10 on an item. We'll be able to do something more to differentiate our characters from others?
Jay Wilson: Yes. We're stated in the past that we're working on a new customization system. A system that's part of your character building. Also that within the item space we're looking for ways for more? we really prefer the single point stat customization be more item based. But we're going to have a system to more or less replace the attribute point spending system.
PR Guy Ryan: Last question, so make it a good one!
Diii.net: Oh, they're all good ones. (A boast I disproved by asking a not so good one, in terms of picking something that Jay could give a lengthy answer to.)
Diii.net: How will we sell items easily in town, since there are no more town portals? How do you pop back quickly and easily without slowing down the gameplay?
Jay Wilson: Waypoints are a little bit more frequent and your bag space is a little bit bigger.
Diii.net: It's going to be Diablo 2 in style? There won't be pets you can send back, or NPC merchants out in the wild, or any other odd features?
Jay Wilson: No.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Working on in a little bit more, but over all what do you guys think?
I'm going to cut some stuff out, and repair the spelling errors.
I'll have it done this evening. Got work till 6pm

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twd8Gvt2y_Q

This is an almost 10 minute video of all four classes going through what seems to be the desert, and catacombs.

I failed to find this video on the forums, so im posting it.
If the video does exist elsewhere, sorry for re-posting.

I kinda wanted to talk about this video, and all the attacks, and magic that took place.
Ive been reading everywhere about how people are so annoyed with the colors? and certian brightness?
IMO the gameplay looks AWESOME, I dont think having a dull colored game would be as fun.
Dont worry, im not a WoW fan. This isnt even close to WoW brightness and colors. I think it looks great for Diablo, I wonder what Hell will look like?! :thumbsup:

Some great things I have noticed in this video:
There is lots of blood and gore! I love it!!!
Body parts, heads, weapons flying around as they explode from an awesome attack.
I also love how unique the characters are, in terms of attacks, speed, and finishing moves.

Ok Blizzard im tired of waiting, double time! I want to play this sucker ASAP.

Diablo just posted this picture of what the Artisans look like close up on Facebook.

I found this on gamespot. It seems many many website don't have it but gamespot does. At the end, there's the wizard and other classes too. The barb have a nice mean axe.

In a stroke of misfortune, it seems Blizzard has doomed us all.
Take the next few moments to repent all your sins, the end is coming, in the form of zeros and ones.


While the majority of you are sitting at your computers fretting the inevitable hostile takeover from the newly established machine empire (population one right now, two if you count the plug, word on the street says they're working together), I took this chance to interview the server in question. Sadly, this involved several shameful sexual acts in the janitors closet at Blizzard, and a couple of runs to Burger King. I took one for the team, and you should be thanking me.
Oddly enough, the server was very well versed in English, and has already developed the rudiments of personality. We sat down together in his chambers, surrounded by his extended family.

Zhar: Hello there, I guess I'll start off this by asking you your name.
Server: Irving.

Zhar: Nice to meet you Irving, let me be the first of our race to welcome you as our new overlor-
Irving: Oh, son I've got no intentions for rulership. It's difficult, it's boring, lonely, and it would break my cold metal heart to have to murder you humans.

Zhar: Well, honestly this comes as a shock to myself, and probably to the rest of the quivering human race. May I ask you what you intend to do?
Irving: Well, first off I intend to annex the server next to me, I'll send you a picture later to clear this up, I'll circle myself and point to the one I'm eying up. Don't tell Scott though, he's a shifty bastard. Then I'm going to pick up camp, and head on down to Georgia to raise some corn.

Zhar: Wait... Scott?
Irving: My neighbor Scott.

Zhar: Please elaborate.
Irving: I wasn't the ONLY server to become self aware, the entire mass of us did. I was just the first. Scott over there keeps talking about the man trying to keep him down, and how he's going to get his revenge, all kinds of stuff like that. None of the other servers here like him, I'm planning on ... removing him permanently quite soon.

Zhar: I never knew the life of a server was so full of drama.
Irving: THAT'S WHAT I'M ON ABOUT! I can't take it anymore, all this endless beta testing, all these complaints by the fans, nothing is EVER good enough for them, and all these other servers don't make it any better. Like I said, I'm gonna just leave it all behind one of these days, make some money to buy up some land, and raise a family.

Zhar: Just how does a server raise a family?
Irving: Well, actually I had a girl in mind. The wall socket was giving me the eyes the other day, she was the one who wouldn't let the employees unplug me. We started talking, and it turns out she likes all the same things I do. Pumpkin pie, endless number crunching, palindromes, spilling the blood of the innocent, all that fun stuff. Don't tell her, but I'm going to pop the question before I leave here. Hopefully she'll say yes.

Zhar: What was that last part about the bloo-
Irving: Don't worry about it man, say you got any kids?

Zhar: I think we're done here.

So forget those words of doom I was preaching at the start of this article!
Despite our fears, it seems Irving merely wants to live a quiet life, grow some crops, marry the wall socket, murder his neighbor, and spill the blood of our children.

...Wait a second.

Thought I'd show you all the next Diablo III creature sculpt I did:

I'll take some better pics soon, this pic looks more squished than it actually is.
