Sure. It's not like there is something else to play on PS4 at the moment. ;-)

oh you can do this before you even get the game? so you did the first part of the transfer yes?
Just pre-ordered on the US store, thread is a bit to big to check this so I apologize if this has been asked before, but are there any known problems with transferring characters from the EU PS3 version to NA PS4 version?
Gonna assume nobody knows the answer to this (yet), since I haven't found anything anywhere on the subject, but figured I'd ask anyways.
Ive played (and i am still playing) a TON of D3 on the PC but i think ill get the PS4 version as well. Im just very curious on how it is to play with a controller plus i do love this game to death.
I am a little sad that is has no battle.net support though. Will there be any online armoury for our characters or is that totally out?
What about clans? Would be fun to be in a NeoGaf D3 PS4 clan.

I'm guessing it's not gonna work.
I'm tempted of buying it through the US store as well, it's gonna save me 23 euro's

My reasoning as well. Worse case scenario I have to start over which honestly isn't that much of a hassle, gonna trophy hunt this anyways since I platinumed the PS3 version, and I almost never platinum games.

Does the best armour generally look coolest?
Is there a way of transferring equipment stats to other equipment, so you can combine the best stats with the best aesthetics

The new Mystic in RoS allows you to change the appearance of your gear to match other pieces you've acquired.

YES MOYES
I always kinda wanted this in the Souls game, though I can understand why it's not in there

The only question I have, which I'm likely to find out is regards to the D3 pre-order bonus.
Apparently the D3 pre-order DLC is tied to my PSN and this content can be transferred to the PS4 version of Reaper of Souls.
There seems to be some confusion though that the content is stated to be limited to only characters that are transferred during the old D3 console version to the newer UEE version.
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/13779228028
However, what If I wanted to make an entirely character, since the Crusader didn't exist in the original version of D3, then how would the new class be able use the Infernal Helm, the Dyes, and Wings for example.
Well I'll find out in 7 days regardless.

Why o' why doesn't this release this week. I can't wait to start it all over again and enjoy all the changes from vanilla DIII.

Seems Blizzard have said the sizes shown on store are incorrect. Might as well get it on the PS4 now with the shit free stuff?

This is probably a stupid question (and has probably been answered a million times in different threads), but are there region specific servers, and if so, are they tied to the game or to the account?
Like, if I buy the digital US version, when I play it in a Euro account will the game connect to the US or Euro servers?

I'll grab it digital from the PSN store for PS4 I think. No good retail deals at the moment. My gaming laptop blew up before I could even finish before so I'm really looking forward to it.

Diablo virgin here, got a question:
So two people (X and Y) are playing the game on two separate PS4 consoles. At one point, they want to play locally on X's PS4. Can player Y somehow access his player from X's console and play with him/her?

Especially considering I'm guessing there's not gonna be any payed DLC.
I never got the Platinum trophy for the PS3 version, I might try and get the PS4.

I want to pre-order this on the UK PSN as I have some refunded money in the wallet, but 59.99 is a hard price to swallow. Completely insane pricing to me and I don't really feel I can support it.
I think you're right.
I think you're right.
I transferred my character via USB stick to another PS3, I assume that's how you do it on PS4 as well.
Not sure if they have a fancier way now.

Actually my hope was that you can access your PSN account on a friend's PS4, and from there access your player for local coop. Probably wishful thinking on my part.

I guess maybe as long you've updated and uploaded your save/character data, there would be no reason that you shouldn't be able to create a user on the friends PS4 and download it.

Isn't that the case with the console versions as well? same item trading I mean.
You sir just saved me more money than geico
Well, yeah, but at least playing with friends, you can gift them items or something like that. It's at least more beneficial to play with friends on console than on PC.

Isn't the gifting an item drop? I don't think you can gift anything. Off to Google

Yep. Which is like I said, more beneficial to play with friends.

Yeah I suppose so. BTW, does anyone know if you can drop in someones game like on PC version (provided the game isn't full)? Also, clan support?
Never played a Diablo game before and my only experience with this type of game was Torchlight on XBLA (which I loved!). Had a few questions:
Does the loot quality and experience amount increase with difficulty level?
Can you transmogrify armor more than once? As in if I transmog an armor to look like the SotC armor, can I do it again on another set?
Can the crusader dual weild weapons? If not, is he at a DPS disadvantage compared to the other classes?
I plan on playing mostly solo and don't mind being OP nor do I have a particular class preference. Which do you think it's best to pick?
Thanks y'all.

It does, there's special difficulty levels that specifically increase mob difficulty and rewards, in fact.
Yes, you can.
All classes are perfectly balanced, it doesn't really matter which one you chose, your gear will pretty much decide where you're at DPS-wise. They only differ in the way you play them, but they're pretty much balanced otherwise.

Played it a lot on PC but only as monk so will try multiple classes this time.
Preordered digitally. Looking forward to it.
Only thing that sucks is that its £60. Kind of a rediculas price but I know I'll get tons of hours out of it and I got the credit sitting there.
Still ps4 game prices are getting kinds crazy.

Really, the answer here is the US PSN store, EU prices are ridiculous, but 59 USD comes to a real nice European price.
Digital Foundry performance analysis:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-diablo-3-performance-analysis
Strange performance drop on PS4 but overall looks fine in the video and seems to be without the day 1 patch.

1) Experience does, loot quality doesn't exactly; your legendary drop chance does get higher with difficulty, the others don't and base stats of the actual gear that drops are not affected either.
2) Yes and yes.
3) No, and hard to answer until the next patch is final. Blizz is making changes to base damage rolls on two handers soon which will be big for Crusaders; if you didn't know, while Crusaders cannot dual wield, they do have a skill which lets them hold a two-handed weapon and a shield at the same time. Crusaders probably are not the highest DPS class though, and probably won't be by design in the future either.
4) Hard to say, I find most of the classes equally rewarding in different ways. They are all different enough from each other it can be refreshing to play a new one after playing another for a long period of time. Just choose which ever one interests you the most.
Or just pick a Wizard, because Wizards kick ass.

Good to hear that the XB1 runs well. Maybe they'll fix the PS4 version with a patch. I've got friends who'll play on both so I might just grab it on both.
Since the analysis is without the day 1 patch and the Xbox 1 version still running at 900p I wasn't sure if it's worth a new thread and rather posted it here.
yeah to be fair this before the day one patches on both. xbone moving up to 1080p might not keep the same performance and PS4's day one patch might increase its performance.
but it still is pretty funny.

The article says the Xbox One version is pre-day 1 patch. So, it is running at 900p. Who knows what will happen with the patch for both consoles.
This article was jumping the gun. The day 1 patch comes out today which brings the xbone to 1080p. We also don't know if there are improvements in performance for the PS4 version. None of the preview videos or hands on mentioned this kind of frame rate drops. I will hold off freaking out until they update the article with the day 1 patch.
