    posted a message on Why do the Diablo 3 devs seem to feel like everything they do is or should be a 1up over its predecessors?

    Like someone said, this is a Tribute to someone who worked for Blizzard.


    I cant believe people are mad at Blizz for not naming a cube what they wanted.

    All these new amazing features, yet people are complaining about a name? Come on now guys...


    That being said, these Devs are listening to the community and actively looking for what the players want in the game. Diablo 3 (vanilla) was a good finished game and I loved it, it was just different. The devs then were doing what people wanted, we just changed our minds after awhile...


    There's no hate for anyone that works at blizzard from other blizzard employees, no where at all did I even get the slightest hint of a "Haha, we fixed your game" in this preview....

    posted a message on Diablo 3 in the news again...
    It sucks yeah, but would I blame a video game? Probably not. I mean I can drive for 40 hours and die, I can sit and knit a blanket for 40 hours and die too. It does suck none the less, but still if Blizzard gets sued or anything because of this that'd be ridiculous... At least they made a statement about the situation. It should be obvious if you play for 40 hours without moving to do anything your health could be at risk. I mean do guns need warnings saying "Do not point at own head and pull trigger, could cause death" perhaps that analogy is more extreme but the same message applies.

    posted a message on What do you NOT miss from Diablo 2?
    Vampiric , Immune Minions, Health Link, Waller. For me as a Demon Hunter is pretty much impossible...

    Thats probably the only small complaint I have, the insane combinations on the Champs/Rare mobs.
    I love the Rune system in D3 however. Not much for me to dislike about the game...

    posted a message on Smoke Screen
    So I keep looking at builds and everyone is saying Smoke Screen is a must. So I currently am using it on Act 2 Hell, and it seems to do nothing for me. If I am getting chased by Champs while I'm kiting and use Smoke Screen nothing happens, they continue to follow me and I end up dyeing. Anytime I use Smoke screen at all it dosnt work and they continue to attack me. I'm using Lingering Fog for my Rune as well. So whats the problem here? Am I using it wrong or something?

    Alistair, thanks for shining some light on the computer I showed. Good thing I posted it sense you are saying its kinda out dated and over priced! I clicked your link but sadly it wasn't the computer with everything you had set up on it. It was just an empty check out screen. Perhaps you could give me a link to the actual computer and then I could put in the correct parts you did!

    NeedBlackupYo, thank you as well for posting another option for me! I will take a look at that. I cannot buy it from that site how ever sense I live in the U.S. not U.K. so the price is all different sense our currency isn't the same :P

    I really appreciate the help guys, thank you so much. Saving me a lot of money! :)

    posted a message on Looking to Upgrade my Rig!
    Alright everyone! I have a computer in my sights that looks promising to me! You all have been a huge help so far, so I figured I would share the specs of this Desktop so you can be the judge!

    Processor: AMD A4-3400 APU (2x 2.70GHz/1MB L2 Cache)
    RAM: 4GB A-DATA Gaming Series
    Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 - 1GB
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H-- it says it includes --Dual Channel DDR3, S-ATA RAID, USB 2.0, Gb LAN, PCI-E 2.0 x16
    Power Supply: 450 Watt
    Hard Drive: 1TB -- 32M Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s

    It also comes with Liquid Cooling, Windows 7, and 3D Premium Surround Sound.
    The Price of this machine is $709.00 that's WITHOUT shipping. Comes with a 3 year warranty and ships out in 5~10 business days.
    WITH shipping it goes all the way up to $784.00 it is a $75.00 shipping fee (bogus!)

    Will this computer fulfill my needs? I would just love to play Diablo 3 Lag free. :)
    I can't thank you guys enough for helping me with this. Like I said I am not the most knowledgeable person with computers and the parts needed to run specific games. Plus you all have been so nice with your responses! Thank you so much!

    Thank you everyone who has posted responses to this it's been helpful.
    Sorry that I haven't posted back, had to work out of town today.

    Anyways! My budget is around 600 - 750 dollars.
    Thank you all so much. I've learned that I need a better Graphics card, and my Board is outdated. As far as I know my RAM isn't an issue. I'm only using about 1.2 of it when I play D3. Perhaps having more would make it run smoother I'm not sure....

    posted a message on Looking to Upgrade my Rig!
    I currently am playing Dibalo 3 with my 54 Barbarian, I'm in hell difficulty. My computer can run D3, but barely. It isn't laggy enough to where is isn't playable but it is cutting it really close! Now that I am in Hell I seem to die a lot more due to lag. Champ. packs having more effects which means more stuff to load on the screen which means I am lagging more then I used to on the lesser difficulties. At least that is why I think it is lagging more. Either way I am lagging more on Hell then Nightmare and Normal. I am looking to upgrade my computer sense the one I have is very old...

    RAM: 2GB
    Processor: Intel Pentium D CPU 2.66GHz (2 CPUs)
    Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT (512MB)

    I have upgraded the RAM from 1GB - 2GB sense I have gotten it (no huge upgrade I know)
    I have upgraded the graphics card from an AMD that came stock with it. It was crap to say the least
    I've had to buy a new power supply, my original just gave out
    Other then that this computer is untouched.

    I am not too knowledgeable when it comes to computers, I understand what is what and what does what. I just do not know what is better and what is worse when it comes to parts. If what I have listed from my computer does not help to answer why I am lagging then please let me know what you need to see. Oh yes! I am also playing on a 1080p 37inch Vizio Television. I am not sure if that has anything to do with anything. I play Diablo in 1920-1080 reso. though. It said on the video settings that its recommended to play with the resolution of your screen.

    Thank you all so much for reading my banter, I'm sorry if I haven't given you enough information. If I haven't please let me know and I can get you what you need to help me out. :)

    posted a message on Help! I cannot make it through Act I Normal
    I made a Demon Hunter, they seem to do well sense you are not really getting hit and you can dish out a lot of damage. Just make sure you never get hit because your squishy. I would buy some AH gear for a DH and try again.
    Good Luck to ya!

    Quote from Gabriel_Logan

    Quote from Gheed2010

    Why does it always have to be about you for you selfish kids?

    Bobby needs a new Matisse on the wall. Yet all you can think about is this game you think you "paid for".

    Seriously, grow up and stop whining.

    What an idiotic thing to say. Let me explain to you how a business works. The business makes a product, then the consumer purchases the product for currency, to which the consumer uses the product and the business makes revenue. When a business fails to make a product, they lose money. You lose enough money and you go bankrupt, thus ends the business. In this particular case, we customers paid for the software product known as Diablo 3. Currently, we paid for a non-existent product, because our product cannot be accessed for hours at a time without advanced notice or reasonable justification. That is what is known as a fraudulent transaction, as selling a product that is faulty or ceases to function, when the business promised a product that is functional. When a business sells fraudulent products, the business loses money via word of mouth due to lost potential sales, as well as lawsuits from customers wanting compensation for their bad sale. I'm not the suing type, but similar things have happened to many companies before, and the company loses millions through class-action lawsuits.

    Back to my main point, you would be an idiot for defending paying for a product that does not work. This is not the first time the servers have been down randomly for hours, this is not the first time our product has failed to work properly.

    I know its still early and stuff, but I kinda expected Blizzard to be a little more prepared for this stuff, or at least quicker to resolve the issue. This has been going on for awhile. I still love Blizz and I understand, its just a crappy situation for the both of us I guess...
