I wouldn't really expect anything all that usable or playable out of these server emulation projects, at least not for a good long time. With the hacked starcraft 2 beta they were able to get skirmishes running because everything is client side for that, but diablo will be a bit different as I believe the server handles all map generation, mob placement, item drops, and so on.

yeah, it looks like we might get to run around in a partial empty world (map generation will probably not work so it'll probably be limited to a hand-crafted starting area)
I doubt there's gonna be NPCs, Items or working skills.

didn't take that long for WoW to have an emulator where you could just run around with nothing going on either.
The hard part is all the other stuff.

There aren't and there won't be for a long while just like you said. It's funny though watching people get excited over this as if it meant anything at all Neutral.

So how do you play this game if you don't have internet where you are?

As BlizzDEVS said: you don't cause that's the wrong way to play this game...

Haha yeah, I already raged about that little factoid a while back; there is no offline mode in diablo 3.

Nobody really knows. It is F&F for now, I'd expect the regular closed beta to start within a month or two.

I'm pretty sure they've already confirmed that they are working on a console version to come out at a later date. They've been hiring console devs, too.

haha that's the idea, but sadly it wouldn't work on console. This one will be designed for gamepads, so expect slower gameplay, more linear levels, health-regen, ridiculous fov, autoaim and inevitable cinematic slow-mo effects. Laughing

I just watched some youtube videos on the PSX version of D1. Surprisingly IMO it looks quite different. Better IMO as the dungeons are better lit , though I cant imagine how it plays with the analog sticks. I remember my friend in fifth grading talking about playing it on PSX and not being able to play anymore after he first ran into the butcher and got slaughtered

edit: there are no animations for sorceror's magic spells i guess? Rolling Eyes Razz

The Witch Doctor just seems hillarious. I was thinking of doing a Mage but my first character is definitely going to be a Witch Doctor.

Much as it's great to hate on console games, I've played a couple dozen console/multiplat games since Hellgate: London's release that were miles better than that piece of shit. Turning it into a console cover shooter would probably actually improve it.

and i was thinking that diablo 3 will be a simple game.
after some reading and calculation in the last 2 hour (bored at work), i can think of at least 3 best builds for wd (solo pet build, solo non pet build, party debuffer/buffer) and probably at least 10 funny one to test. (combination of skills + runes.). and that is pve only, not really into pvp.

i'm impress.

l.e.

one of the builds i noted :

i will probably need to get spirit walk in there aswell. still tuning Smile.
