Diablo 3 item duping has been rampant: from Auction House exploits to account rollback. Blizzard is trying to address the issue in its latest round of tweaks to the account rollback feature. Here’s the official announcement from Blizzard: Starting on Tuesday, April 2, all character equipment including weapons and armor restored via the Diablo III [...]
Diablo 3 coming to Playstation
Published February 23rd, 2013 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsWhen I first posted that Diablo 3 was dumbed down and targeted at a console release, there were some angry comments. Now Blizzard has confirmed that Diablo is indeed coming out for Playstation as an official announcement:
Diablo 3 Dueling (patch 1.07)
Published January 15th, 2013 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsIt took Blizzard almost a year to get to patch 1.07 and add some form of PvP. If it wasn’t for their previous news about the PvP Arena being scrapped, I would’ve been happy to try dueling while waiting for “real” PvP action. As it stands, I’ll probably give dueling a go a few times [...]
As you are probably aware, Diablo 3 has been going down a lot in terms of hours played on Xfire. The players who are still playing it (beyond the paragon level grind) are doing because they expected the PvP Arena. Well, the PvP Arena is scrapped. It’s no more. It’s now a late arena. (if [...]
Diablo 3 Error 317402
Published September 28th, 2012 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsQuite a few reports of a nasty error that is affecting users trading on the Auction House. The error looks like this: “Failed to escrow funds. The player is locked. (317402)”. One of the many complaints on the D3 forum was like this: The problem is that the gold was also deducted without getting the [...]
Why nerfing attack speed is WRONG
Published July 23rd, 2012 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsObviously, I play a Demon Hunter so I lost quite a bit of DPS on account of the increased attack speed (IAS) nerf that Blizzard did a month ago. Before the IAS nerf, I was pulling off 2.5 attacks in a second with a bow, which wasn’t anything spectacular. I’d imagine with a better bow [...]
It’s Athene again, annoying is ever but showing how Diablo can be killed with blue gear only. The video furthers my point about French players having amazingly low latency thanks to Blizzard’s datacenters being in Paris. On my computer, the five cages come up almost simultaneously while in Athene’s version, they appear almost in slow [...]
Diablo 3 best gamer – Athene
Published July 5th, 2012 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsIf you are following game casters on Youtube, you might have heard about Athene who is the self-proclaimed “best gamer in the world”. I believe he was the first one to down Diablo in Diablo 3 – abound with rumors that Blizzard actually gave him super-equipment. I doubt this is the case, he has a [...]
Auction House Clock exploit (duping)
Published June 16th, 2012 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsYou might think that Diablo III is an online game, definitely not an MMO like WoW but definitely an online. So why the hell Blizzard use your computer’s system clock to determine Auction House transactions!!! Is this a single-player game where duping doesn’t matter? Why do some Korean players have 4 billion gold, yes, that [...]
Diablo 3 launches with Error 37
Published May 15th, 2012 in Blizzard and Diablo 3 in the media. 0 CommentsTo all the people who said, “Oh, it’s just a stress test, you’re not supposed to even play it”, I have a simple message for you. It will take the form of a picture, as these are worth 1000 words each: Even Kotaku reported that the server busy error is very frustrating. I have been [...]
