I wish a Diablo 3 would come out already or atleast they could release some news about if they have it in the works.
    Was that the patch where they changed so many abilities? (IE: Amazon cannot use Guided Arrow and Piercing Arrow at the same time to attack one monster 10 times or Paladin's Zeal no longer hits 20 times, it now hits 5 times where each point invested after 4 increases damage)?

    Cause seriously, I used to cheap out people like that. Maxed charge, maxed Zeal, I had Cleglaw's Claw (Slow +25%) and The General's Tan Du Lia flail (Slow +50%). All I had to do was one charge and they were trapped, buwahahahahahaha

    Ya I'm pretty sure it was. They changed the abilities and added synergies or whatever they called it to them.

    There... is not. Single player characters are stored on your computer. Multiplayer ones are not. Unless you wanna play open battle.net or TCP/IP. They would be the same as your single player characters.

    Edit: Submit is not preview.

    i tried playing it again a few months back, started a zon (this was before i new piercing was a bust) managed to get to like lvl 49 after a few days and found someone nice enough to donate a buriza to me, boy was i dissappointed. That and cow levels blow nuts now for leveling. I want to try and find the 1.09b patch and just install that and play it on single player or something.

    I also found my diablo one disc too, but after playing it for an hour or so decided it wasn't worth the time. However! I also found my warcraft one disc, and that was a lot of fun to play through again, and warcraft 2.

    i used to love diablo2. fuckin fascinated me. had such awesome stuff! course.. like everyone's said that update where they did synergies and totally fucked with everything, along with the fact that they made it 'unsoloable' really ticked me off. they wanted to force people to play together like some half assed MMO and they ended up ruining the game.. so sad.

    I used to play with 2 of my friends in college. I stopped playing right around when 1.10 came out, like a lot of people have said. Had an awesome minion Necro that could solo pretty much anything in the game.

    If Diablo III was ever made, I'd be gone from FFXI so fast.

    With this in mind, Diablo 2 is still one of the greatest games of all time. It's definately a classic. Diablo was teh WoW of the late 90s early 00s.

    The graphics are so simple but at the same time fascinating.

    There's just one bad thing with Diablo... it goes through mice really fast

    World of Diablo?
    I bought Diablo 2 at CompUSA a few days after it was released, and at the same time, I purchased a USB Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical. This was what, 2001? I'm still using that mouse on my desktop computer, after playing Starcraft and Diablo 2 nonstop. I'm impressed it has survived for that long.

    Me, my bf, and 3 of our friends were real big into D2.

    I think I had multiple 99Amazons, a few 99Barbarians, 2 99 PLDs, 1 99 Sorc, and 1 99 Necro.

    I think my most favorite part of that game was the cow level on my necro, especially with Corpse Explosion. Amplify DMG curse + Corpse explosion rocked every single cow nearby.

    Eventually it got to the point where I'd just make shit builds and mess around and I got tired of doing endless Pindle runs, so I pindlebotted forever while at school, etc.

    The second they make D3 or another Diablo, goodbye any other game.

    As for that other patch, was that the one with the new runewords? Breath of the Dying, etc? I thought it actually added a new dimension to the game, in that certain builds gained more popularity and allowed for different set ups.

    Prior to that patch barbarians were typically WW with greatswords (.08 Grandfathers beyond duped or Ith hacked GS), but that patched allowed for that build, but moreso others. Frenzy became incredible when used with the Rune Word axe Beast (Fanatacism Aura) + Might from your NPC.

    I tried getting back into it awhile back but I just couldnt, that and knowing that they delete your chars after not playing for 7 days now apparently? fuck that shit

    I had a 99 bowazon and a 99 necromancer back in the day, fucking loved that shit, but i dont think i could do it again, especially with cow levels being 99% useless from what i hear now

    I don't know why anyone's hoping for a World of Diablo... WoW itself is composed of as much Diablo as it is Warcraft. Which is why I love it!

    The talent system and many many classes/spells/abilities are directly out of D2. The drop system is from D2, and hell - they even just added Sockets/Jewels with the expansion.
    I've always called it World of Diablocraft. No way would/could they come up with a 'world of' version of Diablo since the majority of the content would be copying from WoW (which copied from D2) and make it all redundant.

    I just wish I could break my FFXI addiction so I could more WoW.

    I think I speak for everyone when I say, World of Starcraft would be the single most greatest (is that a word?) game ever to be made. GOD.

    Fucking WoW engine but with 3 different factions, and multiple races (i.e. Units) YES, FUCKING, PLEASE.

    I'd also be satisfied if Blizzard just took the insane money they made from WoW and used it to fund Starcraft 2 RTS already. It'd be hella fun.

    Despite playing 3 chars to 99, 2 more into the 90s, and about 8 more into the 80s, I only ever died to lag once (hell cows with a full-trang necro). If you played conservatively you'd almost always survive a lag-out.

    Like apparently a lot of people, I stopped playing somewhere after the 1.09b patch and before the 1.10 (had a 90ish Martial Arts Sin, got tired of waiting for 1.10 and ended up playing FFXI). Besides what's already mentioned here, how else did 1.10 "ruin" the game for so many people? I remember reading about all the extra rune words and other cube recipes added, so I'm curious what happened to change the game so "drastically"?

    I got into playing viciously hard mods (7Lances ftw) on HC while waiting for 1.10; when 1.10 came out it was still too brutally easy--after a 4 month break from d2 I still was able to duo all the way to Guardian title in about a week.

    Plus, 1.10 broke the private realm I played on / maintained, and since I couldn't play 7L at all, I just sorta wandered away.
