So wait, are we undercore if we complete D3 Inferno on HC? I mean, that's basically 1CCing it...

Been debating this myself man. I really don't know.

On one hand it is kind of undercore

On the other your playing in hardcore, it's like a paradox. Or something.
 
Brag post: When I first met my wife and told her I was a gamer her response was, "Oh, cool. Do you know when Baldur's Gate comes out? I played Ravenloft and Menzoberanzan and NetHack way back when, so I'm really into RPGs. Can't wait for Baldur's Gate."

So she's naturally a gamer. She just finished SR3 last night and was pissed she only had 98% completion.

Brag post indeed.


My girl played the hack and slash Baldurs Gate for the Gamecube and she enjoyed it. Hopefully she will enjoy Diablo III...?

I am so fucking jealous of you. But it's D3 and Max Payne 3 soon, woooo happy again!!
 
Anyone planning on running this on a laptop? I'm hoping to at least see if I can get my fiance into it and we recently bought her a new laptop and although I'm sure it can run the game I'd like to have a better idea of how well. Specifically curious about the video card.

Proc: i7-2670QM
RAM: 6GB
Vid: Nvidia GT 610M 2GB

Video card will be the only bottle neck i think.
Good way would be to look up any benchmark score from that card and compare it to the requirement cards. For gaming you mostly want GT x50~80M (x can be 2~6) cards for nvidia.
And for AMD i think it mostly the x680~970m cards x650 being middle class laptop cards and x950 more top range laptop cards which are mostly downclocked middle range desktop cards.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
My girl made me a FFXIII cake (she knew I was very fond of Lightning) when it was my birthday ._.

That's all that I can "brag" about, hahaha

There's achievements for
leveling up the blacksmith to 10, and a jeweler to 10?
Yep! -> Profession achievements spoilers ->
there's achievements for getting certain levels with each profession. Like blacksmith lvl 3 -> lvl 6 > lvl 10

Inception to the max!

I will someday beat Inferno with a hardcore character. It's the only way I can retain my seat as ambassador to the undercore illuminati like Yoshichan.

I've never OCed a GPU, but I don't think I'll use it for anything other than D3, so I'm thinking the 6870 might be overkill (even both cards at stock) or just a 5-7% increase in performance for ~$30 more

I got mine with MSI Afterburner, click click button, done. I only had mine recently and I am very pleased with it as a replacement for my dead 8800gt. Not massively expensive and I don't PC game a huge amount but it is certainly a capable card.

I'm getting all of the modes completion first as a Monk to make him 1337 h4x0rz for the eventual PvP.

I'll then reroll something to snap up all the hardcore stuff.

Fuck yeah, this sounds like a great idea. My plan is to get to 60 (and inferno) with barb and wizard asap, but before I start gearing up them on inferno, I'll go HC. At this point you should be ready to help me!

What's the reward for completing hardcore Inferno? I can't view the achievements at the moment.

There are achievements for doing specific quests and beating the game. You'll be able get the exact same achievements on all difficulties + hardcore (so x5 achievements)!

I dare to believe, but my job is time consuming as fuck. 9 hours Mon-Thurs. Constantly busy in the evening, and an actual limited gaming schedule that nets me 30 hours a month total.

Shit sucks. Don't grow up.

Just arrived from Amazon:

New Death Adder mouse and Vespula mouse pad in preparation for Tuesday. This is my first Razer mouse and it feels amazing! It's going to take some time to get used to it though since I've been using a Microsoft Sidewinder for so long.

My job is being a telemarketer. So long drawn out days doing the same task over and over with a lot of frustration and little satisfaction is something I'm already good at.

Come on Blizz, you need me! :D

It actually wasn't in off topic. Gaming side. It's listed in one of these last few pages for the links to the threads it came from.

Meltdown GAF is best GAF.

I'm kind of sad I missed that thread when it was going on :(

I appreciate it as-well! You also gave me a fine nostalgia-trip of my childhood! I remember selling my first-ever-Zod to Charsi...
I was bullied in school for months when I told my friends about this "accident".
Haha. It happens. I learned my first lesson early on in classic by downloading a program that dropped all my items. Too bad for the other guy I didn't have anything good.

More super useful keyboard shortcuts:

Ctrl + Shift + T = open last closed tab.

This is nice for when you accidentally close the wrong tab.

A job at Blizzard, Bungie, or Kojima Studios would be a dream come true for me.

Too bad I live nowhere near any of their HQ's, and getting a gig even as a QA tester is impossible lol.

My dream is to someday be the head QA guy for a company like Blizzard. Shout outs to pipe dreams...like beating D3 Inferno solo in one sitting under 3 hours on hardcore mode with no gear on.
