Diablo 3 Starter Edition Key

[SinOfLiberty]

Hello guys,

Do not want to bag, just ask for a favor. I am new to a Diablo 3 world(never played first 2, either WOW). As Daiblo 3 is the most anticipated game of 2012(according to a numerous forums) I became very interested. My computer is medium range so i need to test how smooth the game will run. To those of you who bought Diablo 3, may you land me a starter edition(beta) key. We all know the difference between watching a video of a game and playing it yourself.
I am mostly FPS player where you unlock everything pretty fast and left with "play for a higher rank" which becomes boring after a while. I have heard that in Diablo 3 there are tons of unlockable items as well as skill level progression. This fact really caught my intension.

One more questions: How many people can play on a server at the same time?
(In bf3 it is 64/32)

Thanks,

SOL

if you create a battle.net account, I think you'll be abel to get the Diablo 2 Starter Edition

max players in a game is 4. Diablo 3 only has PvE at the moment and PvP will be added later (Blizzard is targetting before the end of 2012).

I'm pretty sure Blizzard shut down the beta servers and there aren't/weren't beta keys but the beta was added to individual bnet accounts. So good luck getting someones logon information.

There was a post here not long ago that had specs on how the game ran on different hardware. But if you're able to play bf3 then D3 shouldn't be an issue at all.

Beta is done.

I think the OP is a little confused, and is actually asking for a trial key, which the game supposedly ships with in box if you buy it retail.

Great, so we're gonna have people begging from here til Christmas.

To all of you who says i am play bf3...-My friend`s computer is the place i enjoy the whole beauty of fps games. On my personal PC i play CS and warface..

So only 8 players can play online in D3? I thought it was massively multiplayer game(excuse me, but 4v4 is barely a mp !)

No it's not 4v4 it's 4 total. There is no PvP, at release anyway. And it's not an MMO it's a hack and slash with a co-op option. The game can be played entirely solo.

And This thread http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2244351 has a link to benchmarks. compare it to what you've got. D3 is not demanding at all.

Post your friggin' computer specs already.

Why don't Blizzard just let people get a trial key like Starcraft? That's the entire point of a trial is it not? Why the need to get keys from other users for? Seems a funny way of doing things

I've heard that you can only play D3 online which is a shame because I wanted to play with a few friends without having to go through battle.net

Yup, though if they do like SC2 there may be an offline option, but you still have to log in at least once.

If anyone that gets the game tomorrow and has a Guest Pass they won't use, could I have it?

How can we help him if we don't know his specs?

And I'm no tough guy, but tone it down or I'll send my butler to beat you up

OP, you ARE begging. And just FYI, I believe Blizzard said that "trial" keys will not be active until ~30 days AFTER launch.

BTW, Bizzard stated that Diablo 3 was meant to be played in mp mode which means 4 player co-op. The game`s main part is 4 pips mp, hmm how can it be fun? I missed something again, by asking this question lolz.

you don't know anything about the game but you are already saying its not fun. why do you even want to play it then?

The game is not a multiplayer game. It's a single player game that allows multiplayer co-op.
