**OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

[Seven]

Next Day Air like they do for all release day media.

Shipped via UPS Ground. Still arriving tmrw according to a tracker..

 

[DrunkenSano]

Can anyone explain how does the Amazon ship the D3 and everyone receives on the release day?

Is there a lightening fast courier or smth?

What I've been told by an Amazon rep is that Amazon actually ships the games out to local shipping distribution centers days before the release date and is held there. Then on release day, the games get shipped out for delivery.

I couldn't resist:

Barbarian mouse pad

Game Guide Limited Edition

I had rewards certificates for the guide and paid a whopping $1.99 plus tax for it. It was so low I chose a faster shipping. It will give me something to look at while work is slow and all the game sites are blocked.

the mouse pad looks good, but I want one w/ the short cuts printed on them, I can't rememver which keys to press for inventory etc.

Newegg shipped my copy today via regular UPS ground. Looks like I won't be able to play until later in the week. Does this mean that I will actually be able to get some work done?

Lose an extra ~$20? No one will buy it at full value when they can get it straight from Blizz for $60.

That said, I'll buy it for $40 when your box set comes in

WtH? I can install? Its installing....but it seems to be downloading more? Anybody know?
Took a bit to install. Took me bout a half hour to install. ~50meg patch at the end......HUGE TIP. Wish I knew this for beta, uhg.

Turn OFF Auto Detect Lan Settings in Internet Explorer. My download rate went from crazy erratic to normal. I wish I would have known that for beta, would have taken me 3/4 the time to download. No wonder the D3 installer was acting *so* strange. My download would spike up....then go to 0 for a time, and spike up. Etc. Like 1/3 on. After this change it went to my full speed and pegged. Pretty awesome. But its cool now, for all the new upcoming D3 patches.

I still use my Steelseries mousepad that I got from Blizzcon '08. It's pretty big... almost too big!

I do like the look of that guide... maybe if EB Games has some tonight, I'll pick one up. I could use some pretty pictures to look at apart from the sexy art book.

Don't feel like reading all the threads. Can someone tell me why I should get this game? How does it rank compared to WoW or other RPG style games? Thanks.

 

[Soccerman06]
