I am somewhat surprised at how poorly the WD is doing. Normally pet classes get chosen a lot.

Male WD, played Necro in D2 so only natural to go for the similar class.

is it true that you cant start a hardcore character at start T_T. Would you be able to just change a registry key to unlock it like in D2 :D

Blizzard said every class should be the same this time around.

As of right now, yes. I don't think they will change it either.

I don't think they will change it either. Is it just me who never understood the point of playing HC? Sure, there's an increased level of intensity and makes it all feel a lot more real and challenging, but how can it be worth it? You'll constantly be nervous about screwing up and dying. One mistake and it'll be all over... and if that actually happens, let's say at a high level, hundreds of hours of work will instantly go down the toilet. If you've ever lost a 90+ character in that way in D2, you'll know that it's a feeling beyond comprehension as far as depression goes. I'd be so mad I don't even know what I'd do if that happened.
It's just sooo not worth the risk of losing everything for nothing. I've went HC in D2... it's something I've done once, and will never do again. It does nothing but make you feel terrible, and you can never have fun while playing either. I just don't get it...

Some people only like HC for some reason SC players cant understand.
I myself play SC now and the one thing I really hate about it (and why Im so excited about D3) is that SC is too HC... You can ladder only if you feel good enough or you will lose a lot of points. Diablo SC was always different, you can play/ladder whenever you want - when you are sick, drunked or whatever you want and its ok... While HC in D2 was little more challenging.
I say D2 was just little more challenging than SC because there was quick exit/save, TPs, reroll... D3 will be different - connection losts, lags and all kinds of crap mean deaths.
So for me its pretty clear, when I will feel good enough for HC I will go play SC, when I will want SC I will go play D3.

Monk, DH, and Barb are REALLY close. It's like everyday I check up on this thread they have swapped places.
Poor WD

After playing all five in the betas I am going with the Witch Doctor! I love that guy.
|
I rolled a Wizard for beta, but I think I'll go Barbarian for release, *IF* I decide to buy it. Wizard is pretty fun, but barbarian leap attack looks so fking fun!
|
Playing the beta has changed my mind.
It was going to be :
1. Barb 2. DH 3. WD 4. Wizard 5. Monk
Edit : After playing all 5 : Monk Wizard Barbarian DH WD
Barbarian felt the strongest the quickest but not really epic and the skills were meh overall. DH felt weak until level 6-7 and new weapons then became very easy. Monk was good all along and felt like I actually had a chance to die (didn't die but I went to half health once at least...). Skills were far more interesting than the other 2 classes.
Not sure if I will enjoy the casters or not yet, they could be 2-3 or 4-5.
I've noticed that for both DH and Monk all the generator skills are pretty boring. Definitely the first skills I will rune as the spenders are much more fun overall. I know that's somewhat on purpose but it was pretty bad, especially for DH until you get entangling shot (which isn't amazing).+ Show Spoiler +

can anyone explain when you leave a game theres a 10 second countdown? If your playing hardcare and your about to die obviously u cant wait 10 seconds, u'd have to alt-f4
|
Your character will still be ingame for 10 seconds even if you alt-f4 I imagine. If you leave while in town there's no timer.
I'll let you take a guess why (hint : you already told us the reason).

Also to insure that all items etc picked up is accounted for maybe.,

I'm thinking of being a wizard but I'm also worried that everyone else will be a wizard too
