I play on USEast. A paladin named BugBomb...hehe. Hes lvl22 and a nicely rounded character. Lots of gems too! Unfortunately, I hate Battle.net and the lag there is horrible everytime I go. I cant even play! Its really ticking me off! I get in a game and go to fight, By the time I realize I am surrounded by guys, they have already killed me, I just dont know it yet and I cannot get away. I die as I am running away! Arrrr...why cant Blizzard and Battle.net get their act together?

Battle.net sucks, I don't bother. I play with local friends via cablemodem or some pals come over and setup in my computer room.
I've got a 30th level Barbarian and a few lower level characters. From what I've seen only the sorceress is really hard to play, the rest have some big advantages that you can exploit. If someone has a good sorceress strategy feel free to share it. I've got a pair of rare warswords and I can continually use frenzy-- swings about 2-3 times as fast as normal "fastest attack" assuming you keep hitting. Stuff goes down. For those that haven't solved it yet, believe me the replayability is there. It gets A LOT more difficult in nightmare. If you're a barbarian make sure you buy leap attack as soon as you can and get the level decent without neglecting anything else. It's invaluable against spellcasting / monster raising creatures. |

Battle.net has good servers. The problem is the insane amount of traffic they are getting because this game is so popular! If you ever played starcraft before D2 came out you could have experienced Battle.net the way it is supposed to work I imagine when interest dies down a little Battle.net will be sweet! Also the official guide came out today http://www.battle.net/diablo2/ tho it is really slow too from all the traffic!

I have a barbarian, too...But he uses two REALLY big swords I don't play on bnet much because of annoying people, so therefore my bnet character is only 6th level or so hehe! (pally).
My barbarian just recently lost ALL his good equipment due to dying, and thinking I can get my equip back, then dying again and again and again in the cow level playing with a friend, at which point I said 'to hell with it' and exited the game. |

skidd, I didn't say the technology sucked but obviously there are some capacity problems.
fido, when you die and exit your body appears by the waypoint portal in town the very next game you enter. anything on that first body is there. anything you re-equipped and then died again is gone. if you exit and save again without retreiving your body it's gone.

I play an open character too. DirectIP all the time. A lvl25 sorceress in ACT4. Haven't completed one single quest yet. Tonight I'm gonna play with my friend, we're looking for some more ppl since the other guys who played with us just left for the army.
Basically if you play the sorceress, alone, try to pick the guys, make 2 follow you kill them, regen mana and repeat. I'm more crazy about it and I just go in running around and shooting and running some more |

Colin- I went back to try to retrieve my body a few times, and died every single time (because my friend is an idiot hehe). When I did finally exit and re-enter, I only got back my backup swords. I should have just exited and re-entered the first time I died, but nooo...I kept thinking 'I can run faster then those damn cows...' Well...there were 500 of them on the screen at once...('moo moo moooo! moo?')...Too bad not all your bodies and equip go back to town...But I know all about the body appearing stuff...Too bad all my good stuff was on my FIRST body (and not my last...). I suppose I should have realized that I wasn't getting my stuff back after 5 tries, and just cut my losses, but I kept trying anyway...See, I'm a typical barbarian...Stupid as all hell...
And leap attack is great...You can do jumps a la Matrix and stuff....Barbarians don't need bridges! Just hop over that annoying river! Edit: Left stuff out [This message has been edited by Fido (edited July 21, 2000).] |
