not as much as me...i even set my avatar a sig pics to were it has somthin d3 on it...and once i go back to my moms im gonna try to put the trailer on either sig or avy...which ever one works..if one does

Well. I guess no ones goona get news updated here on Diablo3 so I might as well do it...Here we go. First off I would like to say for those who did'nt notice it. They updated Tyraels wings on The Diablo3 website Check it out www.blizzard.com/diablo3 Those wings are SMOKIN!! (This is late news but its the most interesting so far)

And for those who are unsure about the Death system I am going to copy and paste an interview about it.

A Battle.net forum member posted a question about how death is handled in Diablo 3 in regards to checkpoints. Bashiok was good enough to respond to help clear some things up:


Quote:
"We had a checkpoint system in the BlizzCon demo we showed, where you would die and pop back up at the last checkpoint you came across. Some of that was for the convenience of the demo, but we do like the checkpoint system and intend to carry that forward in the same or similar form. We're not looking toward corpse retrieval currently.

Any death system we do have needs to allow players to get back into the action quickly, but not be so meaningless that you're just flinging your corpse against a wall of monsters over and over until you finally get through."

He then responded to some follow-up questions regarding how far apart checkpoints will be:


Quote:
"That all comes down to balancing, and probably the specific Act/dungeon itself. No way to know right now."

Imperius the true threat to sanctuary? http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/media/artwork.xml#35

shit cant wait yo...i was so addicted to diablo II but i quit unfortunately...i hope i get back on D3 when it's out.

In a recent thread on the Battle.net forums, Bashiok gave a nice detailed response to the users discussing affixes and modifiers in Diablo 3 and goes on to discuss auto vs. manual attribute systems:


Quote:
"Thanks for the thread and I wanted to say I do appreciate the time and effort and ideas being put in to coming up with solutions for topics that are important to you. I want to try to put the idea of auto attribute allocation, the topic of this thread, in a potentially different light though. Potentially.

It seems there are really only a few core problems for those that do take issue with auto attributes when you boil it down. The loss of a customization option and the ability to create builds for characters that are apart from the norm - or even just kind of crazy and experimental. Some other issues could be a loss of a “leveling achievement” and also just the classic RPG design of manually spending points on base stats. Sort of a nostalgia issue, but still valid in its own right.

So I’ll sort of tackle these each on their own and then hopefully give you some things to think about.

First is the loss of customization, and I’ve mentioned before that we don’t think it will be an issue, but let me elaborate a bit more. With the current skill system, runes, and item affixes, as well as other unmentionables, there’s not going to be any issue with not having enough customization. If there is, bottom line, we’ll add more. We’re not going to release a game we’re not happy with, and a lack of character customization options would make us unhappy. But, even right now we have a lot more variety and ability to customize a character than Diablo II had. I’m going to come back to some of this later because we’d like your help.

Somewhat similarly is being able to create “off-spec” builds, or characters that aren’t just cookie cutter ideals of the class you’re playing. This is important to the game, and we will ensure that it doesn't get "tuned out" of the game. Most importantly though being able to manually spend attributes does not make this a possibility. Which is to say that us automatically assigning attributes does not take away the ability to make these types of characters, at all. Manual attributes were not what made them possible in Diablo II. The ability to make these types of characters relies solely on the complexity and diversity of the the options available to steer your character, and not that they come in the form of a "+" button.

The loss of a feeling of a leveling achievement is actually something we recognize and intend to address.

The nostalgia of simply having points, and spending them on base stats is probably the most difficult. Liking something because it’s familiar is difficult to argue with, but it’s also probably the easiest to overcome. Since we can’t force your memories out of you, we just have to make the best game we can and hope you realize that manual attribute assignment isn’t the best, most engaging or entertaining form of character customization possible, and that we’re offering an even deeper and richer game without those buttons. Or you’ll just forget you even cared because you're playing Diablo III and it's totally kick ass... one or the other.

Back to the part where I said we’d like your help. We want a lot of items in the game, and with that we want to have a lot of affixes. The largest pool of character-focusing mojo is coming from your items, so we plan to have a very diverse selection. While we have been and continue to come up with as many affixes as we can we’d like some help from you guys in coming up with more. We have some pretty crazy stuff already but I don’t want to influence your creativity - plus when it’s one we already have and it goes in to the game you can tell all your friends it was your idea. So if you'd like somewhere to focus your creative energy, this is the place.

That aside I know I missed some specific concerns and points, so any follow up questions are welcome. Being Friday I’ll try to get to some today but they may have to wait until next week."

That lengthy post of his appears to have vanished now, and instead, Bashiok has opened up a new brainstorming thread on the Battle.net forums for all of us to participate in where he went on to explain:


Quote:
"In a recent thread I gave some information on our customization options in Diablo III. In that thread I also let everyone know that we’re adding a ton of new item affixes. We’re looking to have a lot of interesting stats and to really kick down the gates and see how many different modifications we can throw out there. To help us with that we’d like you to throw out some of your own ideas.

An affix is essentially is just a stat or modifying statement on an item. It may increase a basic stat like Strength, or it may do something a bit more interesting like cause an enemy to take nature damage over time. An example of the kind of post we’re looking for (these aren’t final):

Increased chance to find gold
Additional XP gained from killing monsters
Restores life for each successful hit

It’s not necessary to worry about how balanced it may or may not be, if it scales or is a fixed amount, or any in-depth details on how it will play out. This is essentially a brainstorm. Throw out your ideas however crazy they may sound and let us worry about seeing if it’ll work or not, and how. A list just like the one I gave works perfectly well for us. If you want to also throw on an affix name feel free but it isn’t necessary.

Let's keep any discussion to a minimum too please. It's a brainstorm, this isn't a place to critique off the wall ideas.

Also I know a thread was already started, which I’ve now locked, and I wanted to thank Reddog22 for starting that and everyone that’s already posted. Please go ahead and copy and paste what you’ve already posted into this thread to keep it consolidated. Thanks!"

So if there are any affixes and modifiers you would definitely like to see in Diablo 3, be sure to visit the Brainstorming thread on Battle.net and post your ideas so they'll be heard! Who has some ideas? Also, what are your opinions on manual vs. auto stat systems?

Well. When instalation is complete and you finish admiring the loading screen and when the options Single Player, Battle.net, credits, and cinimatics appear you can click on Single Player and watch as the 5 characters pop up and you can be like "OHHHHH YESSSSS"
