Gate of the Setting Sun Video Guide, Lorewalker Stories, Cheating in Diablo, TCG Art

Im really liking all these new heroics. The mechanics look fun.

Yay, a fullscreen button in the video embeds again!

Cool dugeon.

*Doing otherwise violates our policies for Battle.net and Diablo III, and it goes against the spirit of fair play that all of our games are based on*


LMFAO, if you really wanted ur games to be fair play you'd freaking balance the classes properly . Oh and talking about fair play when you have bugs that remain unfixed throughout a whole freaking raid tier (LOLMADNESS?) even tho we keep paying every month.... the irony. blizz can eat shit for that, dont come and give us crap about fair play.

incoming deletion of the entire diablo player base

I don't think that's what they meant by fair play.

I don't care for the balance issues in Diablo 3 since they'll be worked out soon enough, what I'm more concerned is the damn issues with their entire server scheme. Always online DRM is bullshit, and part of me really hopes that entire design decision ruins Blizzard enough to make them learn, though I know it won't.

It is difficult to take their threats of suspension seriously given the rampant levels of cheating going unpunished in WoW.

Not at all what was being addressed, but thanks for your rage.

and dnt forget about the bots in pvp and in uldum etc farming ores for gold blizzard say they care when all they care about is $$$ they couldnt give to shits about there customers aslong as they pay

First time I see ad on a video on the front page, but can't complain since you can skip it after a few seconds. Good to see some new mechanics. And sliding down the rope

I am a bit surprised no one has said this yet but, Gate of the setting sun is not even in townlong steppes. its in dreadwaste. While its not a big deal its kinda odd it was over looked.

What new mechanics?

Add spawns?
Frontal cleave strike like trash in Stonecore?
Bomb drops like the boss in Zul'Aman?
Portion of room being covered in flames like Felmyst in Sunwell or Valiona in BoT?
Patch of green goo left on the ground that require repositioning of boss like 2nd boss in Blood Furnace and about 100 after?
Untankable boss that follows someone like 2nd boss in BT or one of the bosses in Ahn'Qiraj?
Jumping on a boss to attack something on him like 1st boss in Ulduar?

Did I miss something?

And yeah, sliding down the rope looks awesome. Character performing the old "listening to the hands" animation while sliding down a rope as thick as industrial drain pipe. While being a yard away from it.

In before someone tells me it's beta. Just imagine me laughing back at you if you want to tell me that, it'll save me coming back.

Fair play? Every gaming company claims to be against cheating, though most of it is merely empty promises and misleading PR. If Blizzard were truly against cheating, they'd devote an entire team to rooting it out instead of only banning enough to fulfill a quota.

Honestly blizz should just implement their own purchasable bot that you pay for monthly for like 5$ and it would make life easier for them and cut down on illegal botting and people who have a few 80's wont have to do that gay ass grind to level 85/90 anymore, they could just put an hourly limit on your botting or make the bots not pickup non quest based loot to prevent AH inflation. Or even let people buy level 85 premades once you have an 85?

If the authentication service is busy, the login checkbox will now wait at "Authenticating Credentials" until a player's login attempt can be processed. As a result, players should no longer encounter Error 37 when logging in.

gotta love that...

we're not fixing the problem we're just hiding it by not letting you see the error message while you stare at a screen for an undetermined amount of time waiting for the error...err...authentication to be completed.

So now, when you go on the forums to complain about this instead of being able to state the exact problem "error 37 msg" you will have to somehow prove that was the issue because all the fanboys will jump in the thread and tell you its your computer or isp and not blizzard's servers and to put on your tinfoil hat etc because they get in first try every time

hats off to you blizz that's brilliant, cheap, lazy and a slap in the face to loyal customers but brilliant nonetheless

actually the bombs placed around the room.. are different than zul'amun.. i dont understand why you are so butt hurt.

if you actually played the game, the zul'amun bombs detonate after a short duration once they are summoned.
the bombs on this fight have to be set off by a player or by other bombs (except during the 2 phases he launches out 5 bombs), also these bombs send out 4 lines of fire in straight lines, unlike the zul'amun bombs which just explode in a radious.

so please.. tell me the similarity? oh.. because they both have bombs?? please.. just stop playing games if your going to hate on something because it is similar to something else...

micro differences from previous implementetions are not enough to declare something entirely new. That's like a different shaped car would be declared a new revolutionary change to the industry.

When we speak about new mechanics, we mean new mechanics in all its sense. For example:

Double Jump or dashes by double tapping directions or space.
High Low attack combination like in Tekken or other fighting games.
Or perhaps a bar which shows you the sequence of skills you imputed and executes them in order.

I'm LOVING the Lorewalkers! Just saw the first bit and cheered! Then canceled the vid.

Hope they add the option to replay those! ^_^
