Lol at the picture.

I'm booking 2 weeks leave now.

May 15 is a tuesday?
So I'm guessing the servers will go down on release day for maintenance.....:shock::shock::tongue:

Don't forget there will be a good chance the servers won't even be online until like 7pm that day, similar to the SC2 release (unless Blizzard have learnt their lesson).

Not sure how much time I'll take off work, with an upcoming wedding I might only be able to afford to take 1 or 2 days.

Girlfriend is overseas for a week after that, siiiick no one to bug me

I'm doing my backyard from the Friday before with the farther in law (he owns a landscaping business and a bobcat) so If i cant get online, I'll just be fanging it around in a bobcat. Win win really! :thumbup:

looks like $50.95 to me? or am i missing something like a 20% discount somewhere?

WTFBBQ! Motherf@*%ers! Seems I'm destined to wait even longer to play D3. On D3 release I'm on my honeymoon in Europe until end of June. Dirty! As if I haven't waited long enough.. I had my D3 standard version pre-ordered with CDWOW (WOWHD) since October 2009. :lol:

simple decision. postpone the honey moon! :D:p

When you start killing monsters make sure you're playing Diablo 3 and not daydreaming about it while on the Bobcat.

lol

Can you imagine a bobcat in diablo3, ultimate trash collector? :lol:

Thanks hystericalme! spent a few hours playing with a mate last night and loving it.

so, do we want to organise a Diablo 3 beta night tonight?

Would be great to burn through some of the achievements.

How do we add friends on Diablo 3, I have no idea :p

I finished the beta last night. Superb!

They completely overhauled everything, but it still feels like good old Diablo :thumbup:

Seriously can't wait for this!!

One of my first games on PC was Diablo 1 and that scary as music =p

so is it worth making a US battle.net account and buying it that way? i have a US address i can use, but no US credit card... has anyone tried before?

seems australian players will be connecting to the US server by default anyway

Finished the beta with a Barbarian last night. It was heaps of fun. I also upgraded the smith and got some gear that way. Then I started playing a witch doctor and it was rather boring... It's like a glass cannon without being a cannon. Maybe I'm just not high level enough though?

Also I can't say I'm overly happy about the stat/skill system. I realise it makes things so much easier for them, but it also takes the charm away from having some completely bonkers builds. I'm sure Blizzard didn't envision something like a Hammerdin when they made D2...
