OK fine, I'm downloading. Only 32% done so far.

UnluckyKate · Apr 18, 2012

omg downloading

Winnie the Pimp · Apr 18, 2012

tempted but not gonna do it... not at this point 3 weeks from release or something

jokkir · Apr 18, 2012

Damn you exam! Will download once I get back home. Hopefully this isn't an error and I get in >>

strem · Apr 18, 2012

Just when I thought I couldn't be more miserable being at work. Then this pops up. JESUS WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME

The_Monk · Apr 18, 2012

Thank you so much! I'm downloading now, I'm very curious to see if I can run this on my MacBook Pro...maybe not.

Then I will have to create a Battle.net account, right?

BassForever · Apr 18, 2012

When I get home from work tonight all be all over this! Can't wait to get my first real taste of Diablo 3

strafer · Apr 18, 2012

LIES!

Not for me.

GasProblem · Apr 18, 2012

Getting timed out errors all over the place right now.

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Hoo-doo · Apr 18, 2012

Anyone actually got in the game yet?
I just created my Witch Doctor, and have trouble starting the game, getting timed out errors.

NintendoGal · Apr 18, 2012

Speed was at 1MB, now it's at 412KB and falling. Stop downloading it all of you until I'm done! ;p

Got in once, now it keeps getting timed out.

And what interests me is in the top right corner it says:

"Upgrade now! Click your way to 60! Challenging Bosses! Nightmare, Hell & Inferno Mode!"

And then an "Upgrade" button.

razgriz417 · Apr 18, 2012

downloading now, hope this works

side note: my god, my bandwidth usage will be insane this month: 11 gb for WO3 on ps3, 10 gb for Witcher 2 EE, 15 gb for this beta and probably another 15 gb for the gw2 beta lol

I'm guessing that's where you can pre-order the game.

What better way for Bliz to stress test than to give the entire world beta access at once.

Skyfireblaze · Apr 18, 2012

I can confirm while I could create a character I also get "Timed Out" errors when I want to start the actual game.

GorillaJu · Apr 18, 2012

Nice. Flying though the mac client download at 6 mb/s.

Wasn't really interested in beta but I'll give it a try to see how it runs on my computer

Loto · Apr 18, 2012

Thanks for sharing this, just hoping for 30 min so I can see how it runs on lap top

The_Monk · Apr 18, 2012

Lol, my MacBook is getting all crazy just for the fast downloading update, poor guy when I actually try to play this...

I read on a random forum that this is not a beta, but the starter edition. What the hell is starter edition? A demo?

capitalCORN · Apr 18, 2012

Anyone else getting invalid installation options error at the EULA?

luxarific · Apr 18, 2012

I'm in a game and playing (US). I actually have things to do today at work, so I'm done for the day until I get back. Can I stay logged in or will the game kick me out after a period of inactivity?

GasProblem · Apr 18, 2012

Heh, now when I log in it says battle.net is down for maintenance

Could be the same way WoW is, you can play a limited version of the game and upgrade if you wish to play the full thing.

Starter Edition is a demo, yeah.

Also, this is everything I ever wanted out of a Diablo 3.

I can quickly see this always online "feature" getting annoying, having been disconnected already mid fight.

flyinpiranha · Apr 18, 2012

Remoted in to my home PC and started the Install. Hopefully there isn't a time frame of opportunity here, man, Trials Evo AND Diablo 3 on the same day?! Amazing.

Edit: Starter Edition, eh? Sounds good to me! Anything to see how my PC handles this before purchasing.

Zzoram · Apr 18, 2012

Ya apparently this is a "Starter Edition" aka demo.

Starcraft II also has a Starter Edition demo.

strafer · Apr 18, 2012

Can't find the stupid thing.

Ryan_ · Apr 18, 2012

Same here, down for maintenance

qazqaNii · Apr 18, 2012

CAN*T ENTER THE GAME!! :/

Sadface dammit!

Cushen · Apr 18, 2012

Keep getting Battle.net is down for maintenance now.

Keasar · Apr 18, 2012

"Battle.net is down for maintenance" it says when trying to login.

GasProblem · Apr 18, 2012

Guess that was it. Blizzard sure is quick.

Salih · Apr 18, 2012

IT'S OVER GUISE!

It was fun while it lasted! lol

still made it to the

cathedral

. will def. get this game now.

Moaradin · Apr 18, 2012

Got kicked out while I was playing.

Ryan_ · Apr 18, 2012

Hopefully this isn't Blizzard fixing this so we can't login anymore

qazqaNii · Apr 18, 2012

Sadface really wanted to try the game before getting it.

Eiolon · Apr 18, 2012

I got in and played for a few minutes. Just got kicked out.

luxarific · Apr 18, 2012

Disconnected,lol.

Sophia · Apr 18, 2012

I made it up to (Nostalgic spoilers for the first part of the game. You've been warned.)

the Cathedral from the original Diablo

before it kicked me off. Barbarian is amazingly fun.

strafer · Apr 18, 2012

This is why we can't have nice things.

Moaradin · Apr 18, 2012

Is it down for non beta players as well?

Ryan_ · Apr 18, 2012

It could be nothing, though.

I tried to login with a friend's account that actually has the beta and I also got an error message.

There is still hope.

NintendoGal · Apr 18, 2012

Can't log in at all. Just got to the play button too. Boo!

The Elite · Apr 18, 2012

It's my birthday!

Thanks for remembering Blizz.

Did they have the demo before Starcraft II launched or was it after?

It came after. A few months I think? I remember trying it to see if I actually cared for Starcraft, but I still don't.
