And Lillith is a random monster and all "dat". Same with UberD, which I have no clue how you think you have to sell 9999 anni's to get it because it is RANDOM.

Diablo Clone is all but RANDOM man... If on a server 75-125 SoJs are sold, he walks. The only random thing is the number of SoJs.
 
Um, as far as I know, uber D is not random, it's related to SoJs sold. I actually had him appear in a game of mine once, but a legion of lvl 99 players immediately joined and killed him. Stupid hackers.
Also, it would make sense that the anni can't be sold, if it can't be traded.

I think you have no clue what you're talking about. For all you and I know they are working on DIII. And you deserve to be n00bed for saying all Blizz cares about is money. I won't take the effort to write up an essay on how I hate people who flame stuff they no clue about because you don't deserve the effort. I personally wouldn't buy DIII if they never did anything for DII because it would show they don't care about their gamers, but they are and they do. And Lillith is a random monster and all "dat". Same with UberD, which I have no clue how you think you have to sell 9999 anni's to get it because it is RANDOM.

P.S. The monsters were in DI and will probably stay there.

[/end rant]
I'm checking right now to see if the maintenance is in effect. Can't wait to find out if the new patch comes out in 4 hours or not.

I'd say this patch alone is a pretty good indicator that D3 is in the works. And of course Blizz cares about money. If they didn't they would suck.
 
Ya know, if they ever make d3 I hope the graphics are kept simple so I can play it (that is of course if I don't have anything upgraded by then). Sometimes it makes me think how much could be actually added to gameplay if games weren't so concerned about being the prettiest orange. More people could play & all the memory that would be spent on graphics could be just used to make the game larger. (but then i don't know how much IS spent on graphics) :p
 
haha, owned.

Could this be why the Realms are going down come August 8th???? *is very very excited*

Where is this information from? Could we expect it on the 8th, then?

EDUT
GET ON D2 NOW THE PATCH IS UP IM GETTING IT RIGHTN OW IM NOT KIDDING IM GETTING THE NEW VERSION BLIZZARD IS SO GAY

EDIT again

OK, trying to be calmer now. I'm on US west, and I am CURRENTLY DOWNLOADING A PATCH.
I think this is amazing, and I think blizzard must think they are very funny.
Nice forum, BTW. that guy was a noob. I am not lying - Simply, try it yourself. :)
 
the truth

I'd say that when D3 is out, the graphics will take gaming to another level where only uber comp. systems with 1gb ram + and 256mb vid cards would only run this game, look at WoW and how it requires atleast 512 ram , and I had to add another 512 ram because 512mb ram didn't cut it for WoW. If anything D3 would surpass WoW with amount of ppl that would play it and there will probably be a monthly fee of atleast $15 a month like WoW or more. But thats all up to Blizzard if they want to charge a lot or a little, no matter what most of us will still buy it and pay monthly fees. But anyways the graphics will not stay 2D mode at all, it will become only 3D and then there will be accelerators for more effects and everything. Just look at WoW and see how much time Blizz put into those graphix. I give them props. :thumbsup:
 
BLIZZARD! I love you. Long live 1.11. Looks like no character changes, just some bug fixes. Just downloaded the patch :clap:
 
"I thought the redness, bumps, and genetal irritation were from shaving. But now I'm not so sure. What else could it be?"

This add is on the top of my posting window. And you guys won't let us be vulgar???

Why is no one else... doing this? I can't wait to see...

I have never hated my modem more than this exact second right now...

- Attempting to sell a Horadric Cube or a quest item to an NPC by holding

Minor Bugs

activating a waypoint at the same time as declaring hostility.
- Uber Diablo is no longer killed when Shenk the Overseer or Blood Raven
die nearby.

invincible to attack. This has been corrected.
- Blessed Hammer no longer remains active while in town, preventing
players from subsequently declaring hostility and having the hammers hit
other players for damage.

though they were removed. This has been corrected.

skills when equipped on a character without those skills.
- Pasting from the Clipboard no longer allows the creation of characters
with more than one dash or underscore in their name.
 
It seems the servers are still down. (which is the ONLY reason i'm back at these forums lmao) a little disappointed on no character balancing though :(
 
I'm not sure if anyone has posted this or not but i tried to connect to battle.net just to see if it was realm down and it downloaded the patch. However it still says battle.net isn't availble and i can't access my character or play or anything. Here is the version history copied from the patch txt file.
