Ha funny that Diablo 3 became the opposite of AOC visuals. It kinda sucks it looks like WarCraft 3. I’m slowly getting use to it. I sure hope Diablo 3 gets some directx10 love.

Blizzard will not make D3, the animators and creators of Diablo have left blizzard and started there own company, so if there was to be another Diablo it would not be threw Blizzard

look, t is easy to get a program torun in ista, right click n te icon or Diablo II or any oth game you are having a problem with. click on th copatibiliy tab at the top, then if you know what version of windows the game worked well in, like XP, then choose to run game as if it is in XP. I am running an old version of Magic the Gathring: Spirits of Shandalar on my Vista latop, in 98 SE mode.

Ever since i got my new computer i coudn’t play diablo II The requirements go up to xp. It’s my favourite ame and i have all requirments. hy can’t they just make patches instad of everyone wasting money to buy the newone fo vista. What if D3 sn’t the same and is a totally ifferentame then the D2? Then tonsof people will be dissapointed. Is there a way i can st my vista to xp the switch bac nce finished playing D2?when i instll it says select 1 mode out of the 2. Do i select the recomended one,or the other on since i got vista? What! it worked… nver used t before.

I have Vista and I’ve tried playing Diablo II multiple times without success. I right-clicked on the icon, clicked properties, clicked the compatabilty tab, and then changed the compatability mode to Windows 2000. Other than a fairly slow load time to initially start the program, it runs great even in the thickest of combat.

Hope this helps. If yall have any information that could help it startup faster please e-mail me at : JohnP.Nickerson@hotmail.com

I have Windows Vista (pirated lol), anyway If D3 does come out I would be one of thoes people waiting in line for it lol. The DIablo Series Owns! Also Don’t Get Vista with 512MB ram, 64mb video, and 1.6ghz cpu. It sucks with most games. But the Aero Theme is sweet.

In response to Katy;

I have the same problem. Tell it to run the game anyway - it should work fine. It works perfect for me anyway!

Not really related to the original topic, but I found that the graphics from “The Witcher” is more amazing than “Age of Conan”. Just a personal opinion. PS: do a search for “The Witcher” on Youtube and you will know what I am talking about.

If we’re gonna have to play it on vista, blizzard are gonna get a lot of angry emails…

TBH if I have to play it on vista I just WONT because I cannot afford it at all. I’ll carry on playing Diablo 2 thank you very much. Duelling is still awesome after 5 years…

don\’t like vista…but if d3 will come out next year, ppl will have no choice but run d3 on vista…xp is as old as d2 anyway

By: David

I highly doubt D3 will have a high system requirement, because every single game in Blizzard history has been made so that almost everyone can use it.

I really hope D3 won’t require DX10. I want Windows Vista about as much as I want a hard, well aimed punch in the nuts. :s

I usually go to http://www.gametrailers.com - they got plenty of HD content (DirectX 10 too).

man if d3 really does come out this year I know at least 20 people who will go out and sit in LINE for that game.. even if its like 60 bucks man. no biggie. d2 came out 10 years ago and people… LOTS of people still play it. and I mean, Lets face it, alot of wow players are ex d2 players who have accomplished almost everything on d2… d3 would wipe out wow sales, we all know it…cant wait, Blizzard, cant wait.
