A couple days ago i died on my lvl 39 paragon barb. My 3rd lvl 60 barb lost... Died to a D/C , my internet hiccuped on an elete pack and boom, my squishy WW barb couldnt survive the mp2 arcane beams surrounding him.

Needless to say the death really hurt. Im not sure if i should continue playing HC or even D3 for that matter. =(

Don't blame you, after losing 2 p17/18 wizards and a ton of gold to disconnects I was about to quit too, luckily I had enough gold from my last wizard to regear so I leveled up my 3rd wizard. Now that I have my new wizard decently geared I barely play because if another dc death happened I would probably quit, so until they address dc's ill probably just sit on my wizard for now unless I have people to play with.

Finally after a lot of running and kiting and killing stuff I have my first level 60 char. I only beat normal difficulty on softcore and went self found and solo so far in hardcore. Needless to say, I'm somewhat pleased with myself.

Ok, so next stop inferno so that I can finally start playing this damn game

Came back to D3 recently after quitting long before paragon/monster power was implemented to try it out. What DC issues do they need to address? Are the servers unstable or something? Been playing last 3 days without any issues so far.

I think he just means that dc = dead because of the wait time. I haven't noticed any server instability.

I would bet most dc deaths are due to local network issues rather than D3 server problems. Of course that's not to say D3 servers haven't or won't ever go down but the likeliest source of dc is probably local.

It's part of the game so it's part of hc. I think I will cry when I lose my current monk but I'm slowly trying to come to terms with it. It WILL happen eventually, hopefully in some epic fight or something and not dc but it's always an unavoidable danger lurking.

seriously the game should pause when you DC allone in the same way it pauses when you open achievement logs. Give atleast 5-10min to reconect.

My fucking beef with this game is how when you first run Diablo 3 after a computer boot, it lags horrendously. I lost my sick monk to this--it had 3 items that I self found including a 6% andy's, WKL socket /w LS, and a rig with high avg dmg+AR+4.5cc+LoH.

Damn dude that sucks TT

You might consider putting the game files onto a flash drive and running from there (reddit thread) or, more expensively, get a SSD. They are fucking amazing.

Oh that's actually a thing? Was trying to work out wtf was wrong with my pc. I've got a pretty decent rig and just get unbelievable frame spikes the first time I run the game after booting for like 3/4 minutes.

Yep, that's how I lost one of my wizards long ago when I was top 5 on the server =(

Then I figured out I had D3 installed on my shitty HD instead of SSD. Doh.

I feel like every character I've lost has been a practical lesson: lost a character while loading assets, reinstalled the game on a flash drive; lost a character when I hit the disable/enable wireless key, disabled the key; lost a character when I hit the windows key, etc... I wonder what I'll learn next.

i thought that was the first thing you do when setting up a new pc on which you also want to play games..

Eh, Diablo's the only game I play in which that matters. For everything else, it's just an inconvenience.

Interestingly I can't actually remember the last time I accidentally pressed the Windows key, although I used to do it all the time. I guess my muscle memory just recognizes it as the danger zone now. So many lost arena games back years ago when I used to play WoW...

Not nearly as bad as when I used to use function keys as keybinds, though. Hand of Freedom bound to F4. No prizes for guessing what the "self cast" modifier was bound to.
"I'm about to get rooted, using freedom on myself." "You're not moving, did it bug? Wait, why did you just log out?" "Uhhh..."

I find myself in disagreement with some of these points:

Death still matters in SC...Dying is losing time to run back to where you were. Arguably the gold loss doesnt matter.

The economy argument only holds if you engage in trade, I find it more enjoyable to get everything I own on my own but thats just me.

Playing a witch doctor (arguably the safest char with minions build) doesnt give much support to the "more challenging" argument.

Getting hit by attacks which you clearly avoided but still eat due to game latency, encountering single or multiple boss packs with some crazy mod combos etc..I have my qualms with HC altough I used to be a fanatic advocate of it. I just got tired of starting over, normal and nightmare are snoozefests.

Come inferno and hell diff, end bosses are easier than boss packs for some reason..

Sure death in SC matters in terms of overall efficiency, but death in HC is Not An Option. It's the feeling of walking the tightrope and the challenge of staying focused that is the draw to HC for myself and many others, where it's all on the line every time you play. Knowing what your limits are and staying within them while pushing the boundaries is satisfying mentally, and it adds an emotional layer to the satisfaction you get from killing lots of shit in an ARPG.
