I thought class changes (balancing?) will only be done in patch 1.1?

Hopefully they found a system to ban all the guys who botted

InB4 Bashiok is bashed for releasing a beta-game.

still no detail .... time for us to buy all ilvl62/63 legenday which was at 150k ?

The idea here is that they want you to keep playing. They will not buff the current legendary items in the game, but will buff Legendary items that drop AFTER the patch.

they wont ban all botters as it is part of ther RMAH income.

They knew who botting and who doesnt, it is entirely up to them if wanna ban or not.

thats not true at all

blizzard makes games to last 10 years, if the game dies from those sohai botters, there won't be rmah income

pre ordered a new game, D3 is my 2nd priority now due to the fact of how they are REALLY handling fixes and shit. a little too late blizzy. sry

u try go subscribe from 1 of any bot site.
lurk into their forum.
talk to ppl in there.
then u know.

I am excited to find out about Class Changes... as of now, the build diversity is not right. Every class/build end up needing the same type of gears:

+ Resist all
+ Vitality
+ Attack Speed
+ Crit Chance
+ Crit Damage
+ Life on Hit

This makes all those gear super expensive in AH.

You are wrong, I guess.
Last I checked, it is the botters call other people sohai. True story.

cough* 1 mth old report on game breaking barb furious charge bug, only got fixed when shit hits the fan, yeah sounds like the "care" lol

and about botters, they hardly care tbh, if they rly do care, there will be better implementations on curbing bots other than implementing shit "ninja fixes" that pulls the entire community into a bloody super grindfest

August 26?

I think the idea is to buy cheap legendary, salvage, craft after the patch...

blizzard make this game to last for 10 bloody years??

i fuken lol to this.

Oh btw, remember pre 1.0.3 patch where everything sounded so good? xD

yeah, ill have no expectations this time so i wont be angry or feel cheated later on when the real patch is up, hope i wont see any hate threads mushrooming here either, dont say i didnt warn u all haha

the Armoury is srsly unexpected, of all the shit they feed players, they feed us all that shit

lol . Blizzard fanboy , nick name blizzard white knight who dying/blindly to protect D3 finally start rant lol .

nah D3 is still the best games 2012

At least people using AHK for Magic Find swap will be the first to create hate threads... LOL balancing = nerf some, buff some... dangerous water here... that's is why i m keeping my gold for now, let's wait and see... i hope they buff some attrib which has been overlook; dodge, life steal, aoe skill, etc...

About the Armoury, blue post saying that it was spear-head by Web and Mobile team, was not using any manpower from D3 team.

Anyway, no expectation is good.

Got ilevel 63 lagendary meh..I thought max capped at ilevel62 nia...

eh? no need to hate so much kiddo, im still a blizzard fanboy, not sure how white knight came to you thou, i didnt know giving honest and matured views about a game is "defending" the game, dont expect you kids to understand that fact either.

regardless, what im pointing out isint a rant, rather a warning only, dont say i didnt give u guys a heads up what to "expect".

Generally im still waiting for SC2: HoTS

Added on August 9, 2012, 2:03 pmits hard to pinpoint what exactly they meant by that since what they do usually isint what it rly means lmao. regardless of what the "balance" is, its kinda too late imo, in general the econ is f***ed since botters are rampant to a certain extent that the market is flooded with tons of gold. best bet for me is sticking with HC mode and enjoy coop with friends there, thats bout it.
