Support NeoGAF

[Lucifers Beard]

Queue but only for 1 more minute. Having a quick crack at this before the kids come home.

 

[docmindbender]

The CG/intro scene is the one they've already released yeah?

Don't get home for another couple hours and wondering if i can just hit skip (if i get that far).

 

[Salz01]

Still blows my mind in 2023, they can’t get login que’s right….. like seriously. Feels like they run an authentication server coded in 1923….

 

[Spyxos]

I did and still having the same issue... Great start

Yeah fuck me too...

 

[gimmmick]

How the hell do I download this beta for ps5? I searched it on ps5 and nothing is showing up (I preordered the game).

 

[Rentahamster]

Does Diablo use any Christian lore? It seems like it uses it's own lore, but borrows names.

The Diablo franchise is as related to Christianity as Evangelion is. Which is to say, hardly.

 

[DavidGzz]

Sorry guys, not one issue so far for me. I was thinking about switching back to Xbox to see the graphics difference but the wait times are scaring me, maybe I'll try later tonight.

 

[dorkimoe]

i made a NeoGaf clan if anyone wants to join it. Dunno what itll get us

 

[Rentahamster]

So we have less than 100% in this thread getting error37ed?

10 years of progress, ladies and gentlemen!

 

[Spyxos]

 

[Beastclaw Raider]

Yeah so I can't get in. Guess I'll have to try later tonight

 

[DragonNCM]

I'll get it when price drops or waithing for gamepass, wana see what scum they will implement to grab my money

 

[zomboden]

Only a few minutes into the game but its looking and running amazing on Series X. Plugged in mouse and keyboard and restarted the game to see if I could get them to work on there. But now I can't get in. I didn't see any options for it so I am assuming you can't use KB&M on console.

Update: Got back in finally and no you can't use keyboard and mouse on console.

I'm curious to see how PC compares to XSX - I'm not sure what platform to get it on

 

[Bartski]

 

[dorkimoe]

Little bit of stutter on PC, but not major. I also have a stream open on other monitor and that could cause it. I am on the quest "missing pieces" i have to go into Kyovashad but it wont let me in? That cant be the end of the beta right?

 

[Boneless]

So, I'm dumb, how do I switch to my 2 handed weapon as a barb?

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Network error in the middle of the first dungeoooon

 

[sendit]

So, I'm dumb, how do I switch to my 2 handed weapon as a barb?

ALT+F4

 

[Beastclaw Raider]

Ah, now a error code 34203. At least consistent thorough all these years

 

[nightmare-slain]

Hell yeaah! Going to jump in right now. If I can get logged in....

 

[zomboden]

Servers just went down. Game looks very good on Series X. I would guess 1440p or 4k. And definitely aiming for 60 fps. I can't tell if it's running any lower settings than PC but it looks comparable to some of the streamers graphics on high end PC's.

 

[TVexperto]

i made a NeoGaf clan if anyone wants to join it. Dunno what itll get us

i wanna join

 

[acidagfc]

Wouldn't be a Blizzard game without network issues.

DCed during a cutscene, my character was gone, tried to relog, no connection.

Just as expected!

 

[DryvBy]

Big giant L on this game already. You can't drop loot to friends.

 

[cormack12]

This is boss. I've just been booted though at level 4

 

[dorkimoe]

i wanna join

i will approve you all, just request to join

 

[Fenixowaty]

Yep servers down, but it looks goood on PS5

 

[nightmare-slain]

It's a beta for fucks sake

 

[acidagfc]

34 minutes queue? Lovely!

 

[Lucifers Beard]

This is boss. I've just been booted though at level 4

killed the first ‘boss’ and got booted at level 4. Rolled a Sorc and went with lightning arc and Frozen Orb. Games amazing, day one deluxe on PC for me I think!

 

[nightmare-slain]

36 minute wait to log in

I tried rogue. She's an ugly bastard but nice ass.

Good so far though. I'm thirsty as fuck

 

[Luipadre]

DCed... NOOO

From what i played tho. Holy shit we are back. Looks, sounds and feels so good. Combat is already chunky

 

[Boneless]

And now I am stick in a weird screen.

 

[Hot5pur]

Code 30008.
Got booted noooo
So far so good though. Really impressive and I am quite pleased. Skill tree also looks lovely. Graphics could have been better for high end PCs but it's decent. They kept the specs low so more people can enjoy it and that's the right move given GPU price BS

 

[zomboden]

Queue is 1 hour for me on Xbox right now. I'll play later tonight lol...

 

[Krathoon]

Ah. I lost my connection to the server.

 

[Evil Calvin]

Well this is shit. Got through cutscenes and got into the game. Played for 5 minutes and kicked me out. Not even playing multiplayer. Tried to log back in ----48 minute wait.

That's BS

 

[nightmare-slain]

I'll play later tonight lol...

Good luck with that

 

[BWJinxing]

Well, i got in, made a mage and it DCed mid cutscene.

Im so glad this closed beta was access able by a KFC product.

 

[zomboden]

Good luck with that

It's not even peak time I know... gonna be a rough one

 

[DavidGzz]

I was kicked too, but this is the real deal. Annihilates D3 already.

 

[Krathoon]

Hopefully, it saved where I left off. 51 minutes to getting back in. Crappy.

 

[MirageMew2]

Anddddd here we go. I was in as soon as it opened played for 40 minutes straight til level 4 and got disconnected. 40 minute queue.

 

[nightmare-slain]

yeah i ain't waiting in this queue and i'm british.

i'll see how it is in a few hours and if i can't get in i'll try tomorrow morning.

 

[sendit]

Guess you didn't get the memo that D4 is always online.

 

[Malachai]

So I finally managed to take control of my character after sitting through the cutscenes which were very impressive I might add then immediately got booted back to the title screen with no option to start again. Closed the game and started it again and lo and behold 38 minute wait to login

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Well this is shit. Got through cutscenes and got into the game. Played for 5 minutes and kicked me out. Not even playing multiplayer. Tried to log back in ----48 minute wait.

That's BS

Personally, while I understand we are all excited to play it, at the end of the day it is a network test (sorry, open beta) and if you think it's bad, wait until next weekend when the floodgates truly open.

 

[Ogbert]

Just kicked out, but managed to get half an hour as barb.

It’s basically D2 updated. Much slower paced. I like the aesthetic. Little disappointed in the combat so far; feels a little ‘floaty’ but obviously very early days.

Looks good. Not incredible, but good.
