Weekly time seems fine. Sometime on the weekend for a few hours, maybe more schedule permitting.
I don't know if we have to have the whole team online to play. That can be a bit prohibitive, because shit happens and people can't make weekly dates sometimes. Just go by an honors system - you can play with one or two people absent if it happens, as long as people help them catch up later.

If we're doing this for ourselves only with each other, closed B.net really isn't necessary (or ideal). You can use any server, and maybe even the reddit one.

Meh, I don't know, hapa. I find this private servers very sketchy. It's up to you guys to decide, though. Just remember that the games aren't more than 35 dollars.
Also, I'm thinking about putting a weekly schedule of 2 hours of play on Sundays. What time do you guys think is the best? When this is fixed, we will have a character to be played at that time, and only that time. We can play with whatever characters outside of this, of course. I think this is fair and not so prohibitive, right?
With Artanis, we are already 6!
Gonna do a poll for deciding servers
|
It looks like everyone has a CD key, so we can just use closed BNet servers.
Some time on Sunday should be fine. We should just set a start time, and go however long we feel like after that. Sometimes 2, maybe sometimes longer. Night works best for me, not sure what Holyflare's sleep schedule is though.
We should also roughly decide on characters. Probably should not have more than 2 of a given class, just so that people aren't fighting over items too much. I know Yamato wants to run a sorc. Does anyone else have something they want to run in mind?
|
I've always played sorc, I always want to play sorc
|
I probably will be doing some crazy paladin build like thorns zealot
Respec only to go against uber

I've already started playing. My account on USEast is GlowingBear (SHOCKING! :O)
Give me your account names so I can add you and put you on the player list
Also, I'm thinking about setting a weekly group gameplay every Sunday 07:00pm (GMT -04:00). Is it alright for everyone?
|
By the way, Ladder resets in 26 May (confirmed)
Would you like to wait until then?
|
I played through A1 today and yesterday, getting tons of framerate issues though. Did you experience anything like that GB? Also, any way to turn off fullscreen?

It lags sometimes, but didn't have any technichal issues, no.
I remember you could play on windowed mode if you changed something in diablo2 icon, putting an "-w" there.
Maybe you're experiencing lag because you're from Europe playing in USEast?

Time is fine for me. I'll make an account and add you.

I doubt I'll be playing outside of the group at all, so the reset makes no difference for me (unless a new patch is coming or something).

Well, trying to catch a place on the ladder is cool. But I just realised that it can't be done playing only on sundays, so yeah.
Hapa, I want to start a zon outside the group. If you'd like to play with me in an hour or so, tell me.
|
By the way hapa, there is this thing that some items are ladder only and I'm not sure if Uber Tristram can be done outside the ladder
|
Some runewords and cube recipes have always been ladder-only. Uber Trisram is non-ladder though.
Also, I can't play in an hour - need to rune some errands this afternoon. Might be free at night.

Uh. Sure.

I like d2. I'd play it. I'd even play shitty classes. Shitty classes deserve love too.

Awesome! I'll add you to the players list.
I changed my mind. I want to do a tank enchantress, maybe
