*raises eyebrow* Coincidence, or actual concern Blizz?

Well with a bunch of people complaining that they cant play even after downloading it im not sure either (apparently it opens at noon, so i just wasted a good hour of staying awake lol)

Oh gooood.... Like I didn't already spend yesterday getting kicked off every ten minutes from the closed Beta because the servers were overloaded and the connection kept getting lost. Now the whole damned game will be overloaded. I'm not that impressed with it so far anyway, too much grinding required.

From what i remember Diablos always been a grind, and that sucks to hear bout the servers being complete carp

i tried at 2pm today.

Battle.net is unaval..

I dont see it being better tonight when people are off work / out of school.


Ill try 1-2 times to get on, if not, meh, ill do something else.

They're working on it since the whole point of the "open beta" weekend is to test the capacity of the servers before launch.

Well just plunked a few hours on, damn fun game so far, have had an issue where the attack commands have a bit of lag

If this had come out 5 years ago I would be all over it. As it is though I have moved on from RSI inducing clickfests.

The extremely poor decisions that Blizzard has made have ensured that I will not be getting it.
