So Inferno is now cleared. What do you guys think? How hard will it be when Wizards armor is being nerfed?

Haha, called it. Said inferno would be beat within 5 days when others were saying "months dude, months."'

Blizz team just plain suck at gaming. Might be impossible for them, but actual gamers will do it quick.

I don't understand Blizzard internal testing. They kept saying Inferno would be incredibly difficult to beat and would take many months if not a year to beat and we already have people beating it. They even had the perfect chance to ask for our feedback with a proper beta test, instead they just gave us the start of act 1 normal so we had no idea how difficult the game was going to be.

They could have just made a seperate inferno beta that would, say, give us lvl 60 characters with decent gear and would let us play the start of act 4 or something

I didn't watch the interviews, but unless they said it would take months to a year for world firsts, (I hope they're not that stupid), they may have been referencing more an average. Just because a handful of nutjobs and psycho gamers spend 16+ hours a day playing and get through it in the first couple of weeks, well, there's going to be achievements to farm, extra toons to level, and even then, we're kind of a fringe market sector, not the norm.

Maybe they had some stupid idea that people would actually try to clear inferno instead of just the bosses.

This! I would actually take a long time if people actually do it properly but hey bosses are all that count in a world first rush.
I am quite surprise that Blizzard didn't know about res hopping, may be they do but just don't give a fuk. Blizzard needs to fire those game testers that tested the game.

yeah.. if they would have made the rezzing and teleporting to a corpse mechanics different, it would have taken much much much longer..

Also, Blizzard has to cater for the casual to semi-casual gamer (after all, they want to sell X million copies). If they make it so that pros playing 16h per day can not beat it in 6 months, then the vast majority of players can never do it.

Just take teleport to your friend banner out of the game, make res timer longer when you are res'd a few times in a short period of time longer. This would make corpse hopping impossible I think.

Who the hell would say "months dude, months."' ? Maybe someone who's never played Diablo 2 or doesn't understand the community or what people would do to break a record lol. Everyone here pretty much knew it would be done within a week... two weeks, tops.

Consensus here was that it would be months because Blizzard said it was super-duper impossible and they thought it would take months to beat.

Higher post count people were guessing shorter though.

There's only so much skill cap in Diablo. At a certain point it would be all about the gear.

If it took 6 months to beat Inferno for even the most hardcore teams, that would mean 6 months of 24/7 gear farming. That's not the best game design anyway. I'm sure they could have just prevented you from corpse running and rezzing each other, and it would have taken 5 times as long to finish inferno.

Oh and from the looks of it hardcore inferno looks, like someone said, pretty impossible at the moment. Even if we discount the lag and server issues.

dunno, even without res hop everyone basically just runs past the champion groups, nobody can fight them currently, they are far far more dangerous than any boss.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.
