If you like mindless hack'n'slash games where the idea is to kill increasingly difficult enemies/bosses, gain increasingly powerful and plentiful loot and become increasingly more powerful as you play .... then Diablo rocks I'm having a freaking AWESOME time on D3, I'm still in Act1 and I've been playing for at least 6 hours. Awesome game.
What I do not understand is why they are not having these issues with the EU or Asia servers? Just seems the NA servers are always having the problems.
It makes you wonder, is Blizzard just so popular there is no way to accommodate all the users? Or are they just not skilled enough?
Neither. They are corporate whores that cut corners wherever possible in order to squeeze every dollar they can into net profit instead of expense. Blizzard has an astronomical amount of revenue at its disposal - if they really wanted to deliver a flawless launch, they could have, no problem. Instead, they chose to play it safe with server/bandwidth allocation to save money.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Blunt temp banned... thread cleaned... guys please learn to use the ignore button if you dislike someone or u cant seem to keep the discussion focused on the game... thanks
my fb is raped with stupid posts about people saying goodbye to social life cause of this game.. i sort of find it kind of sad but to each his own...
however, this news of a 4 man team finishing the game in 7 hours? 7????? yah sure u can fully ignore the story line and sidequests and use normal difficulty...but 12 years and 7 hours?

Thats the thing, I wonder if its true. The only benchmark we have to go off of is world of warcraft. No other game company has shown the world how to do what blizzard attempts to do.
Anyone else with really, really stubborn achievements? Have unlocked 2 from the 7 or 8 hours i've played COOP. And thats collectors edition and participating in the beta.
Achievements were bugged after the release, I only started getting them yesterday. I don't have any achievements from Act 1 though (like killing the Skeleton King etc.)
Personally, I haven't had any issues with the achievements. The main annoyance for me is the long cool down on the damn potions. Playing my Barb, I'm getting killed pretty easily. Dunno if I don't have good enough gear for the area I'm in or what the problem is. It sucks either way.

I've come close to dying - closest was because I didn't pay attention to the potion cool-down period - but when it happens either those orbs start dropping like crazy or the character does something - I don't know quite what triggers it - and health is fully restored for whatever reason.
(Usually after some shout or praise to the gods from my current Barbarian character, might be because I kill enemies in large groups often getting that XP bonus for 10+ kills in a row or what it might trigger, same with destroying 5+ objects in a row but the XP bonus there isn't much at all.)

Yeah, I've seen him recover health instantly and he'll say something like "I'm healed" or "Health restored" and there's no particular rhyme or reason to it that I can find. Sometimes I get lucky and orbs drop but most of the time I don't and I end up getting splattered. I died a disgusting amount of times on the Skeleton King. He was one tough son of a bitch.
