question: since i didn't play the beta before, is there any class that can heal or is it just potion chucking for everyone?

Nobody can heal.

 

[Raide]

Nobody can heal.

Hardcore!

 

[Yoshichan]

Should I pee now or later?

[Melhisedek]

Is it open or is it the next hour? My time conversion skills are a bit rusty

Damn, I sent you a PM and Peed myself. Well, at least changing my pants now saves me the trouble later.

 

[Melhisedek]

[Adamm]

Downloaded & ready. Lets do this!!

 

[Lamiafusion]

Are we there yet?

NO!

 

[Winnie the Pimp]

Nobody can heal.

wow ok... i guess in D2 nobody could either, so i guess that's fine, i just love healing that's all...

 

[neoism]

I have to say wonder why blizzard would want first timers to experience this game for the first time, and have problems throughout. Also with all the lag I'm sure will have to endure. They should realize a lot of people will play this and be ready for it. just saying it gonna make some people go the other way if its nothing but problems for the next 3 days. I hopefully will get to play with some of you guys, but I will probably just play solo for a while. Really wish this game didn't need internet...


:/

 

[Raide]

Just seen this on Twitter.

Bashiok:-If you're participating in the #D3 open beta today, make sure you're grabbing and using the BETA client. The full game client will not work.

 

[Trickster]

Nobody can heal.

Monks?...

 

[dgenx]

Anyone knows how long it takes to beat the beta? cause its just one section...

 

[neoism]

EST is always 3 hours later than PST... so 12 is 3pm for est

Well they do say it's a stress test, which I guess used to mean much more some time ago. Nowadays betas are hardly anything more than glorified demos so I get what you're saying. No doubt there will be complaints about how poorly this will function.

 

[Aesthet1c]

Probably An hour or two, depending on how fast you go.

 

[strafer]

So I just found out that D3 has no offline mode.

That fucking sucks.

 

[dgenx]

I thought i could use this beta to pass the weekend,

 

[Winnie the Pimp]

Monks?...

wait so Monks CAN heal then?

I am also not talking about healing yourself only but others as well?

 

[mik83kuu]

Get an internet connection. Problem solved.

Welcome to 2011.

 

[Raide]

Yeah, it effects players as well. its an AoE healing ability.

 

[Yoshichan]

Monks can heal everyone with the right skills and runes!

It's just like D2. Nobody heals directly, but some classes, the monk especially, have abilities where they can heal everyone around them.

 

[Nugg]

Servers are now down for closed beta testers too, I've just been kicked out of my game. I guess everyone will be able to access once they're back up.

 

[Teknoman]

Was just about to post this. Works like Paladin auras (sorta).

I cant log in - just downloaded the client etc and it keeps saying unable to connect to server error 3003 or something....is this what you are talking about? not sure why i cant play

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

I'm guessing you still have to download the beta client even if you've already downloaded the full game?

 

[gl0w]

how much time left until it starts? i'm still getting an error when i try to login

 

[Nugg]

I cant log in - just downloaded the client etc and it keeps saying unable to connect to server error 3003 or something....is this what you are talking about? not sure why i cant play

Yes it is. You should be getting error 3005. Open beta is 10 minutes away still.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

It's not up yet. A few minutes more.

He forgot a step.


STEP 5:

Stay awhile and listen.

 

[Phat Michael]

Yes it is. You should be getting error 3005. Open beta is 10 minutes away still.

[gl0w]

Yes

[Yoshichan]

[Shining Sunshine]

[IJoel]

Coffee on the left, mixed nuts on the right. Let's do this.

*Taps desk impatiently*

 

[throwawayname]

Internet crash in 5 min.

 

[tch]

Now I'm stuck at 10% in the installer...

This happened to me. Then I retried and now I can't even get the download to start.

Error: the installer was unable to open the installer data

I'm about to call it quits this isn't worth all of the work

 

[EmCeeGramr]
