The meat chunks and blood disappears after a while though, which some hardcore D2 players are not happy about, a reason maybe due to limited system resource when the amount of meat chunks/blood/skeleton starts to stack, which may strain older systems.

PC Gamer US December 2010 has a preview on Diablo 3.

"Can breakdown armor and weapons to raw materials to create / make other items."

Interesting.

Or bolehland lan gamers who have to resort to lan because of the lag? Had a few l4d2 games with friends where one or two of us get constant lag despite playing on steam group or best dedicated servers.

if I play regularly with my brother and friends who stay in the same house connected with Gigabit LAN, what is the logic of having to host the game on a server that is half way across the world instead of my i7 with 16GB RAM?

If Blizzard makes it a requirement to log in to Battlenet to authenticate before starting a LAN game to stop pirates from playing multiplayer games, I can accept that. Totally remove LAN, no.

without LAN, the "longevity" will last short.

Megatons of free content and constant updates, at Valve's own considerable expense.

Not sure if Bobby Kotick likes to give freebies

Activision-Blizzard on the other hand asks players to wait for an expansion that "is done when it is done" and will be released soon™ to add content to the original game.

Try moving 4 times a year and traveling KL-Ipoh-Penang all the time and living at the northern region that the Internet line is as good as 1515.

Oh wait..... that is my problems right? Its not Blizzard's problems right?

So it is my problem to move so often, it is my problem to travel so often with no Internet conenction, it is my problem for living at place with crappy Internet connection and it is Malaysians problem to stuck with TM, not Blizzard's problem to requiring the player to authenticate online before playing and removing LAN right?

It is the problem of a country but not the problem of the DRM by Blizzard right?

So by having all these problems I am not a Blizzard's customer and don't deserve to enjoy the game fully even after I pay RM250 for it because it is my problems right?

So if Blizzard don't care for people pirating their game, I wonder why the force players to authenticate on Battlenet and remove LAN. Maybe because they are preparing to charge a monthly subscription fee for multiplayer like Xbox Live?

I agree with you on this. Don't play the game if you really hate the DRM and shit.
Err, hello? WoW anyone? 

Eh hello again? Did not WoW developed by Blizzard? You forgot what you mentioned earlier ar?

CEO have a lot of influence on the games in development. If the CEO is bad, like Kotick, it will have impact on a game's experience and vice versa.

I don't have much hope on D3, as my experience with other recent Activision Blizzard has been nothing but bad. I'll probably buy it because the development is headed by Jay Wilson.

that's BS. if you don't know the negative influences of kotick in PC gaming industry, you are not a true gamer.
how you know the game is good before buy and play?  by being a true fanboy?  
that's not true gamer, that's idiot gamer.

Also, consider studios like Bizzaere Studio of Forza,Blur and Blood Stone. Activision is shutting them down because they are not profitable. Same goes with other studios that Actvision used to have like Red Octane. Didn't that convince you that all they care is money? If you failed to make millions, Activision will shut you down. Have you seen Danger Close lay off employees because MoH is a failure? Or Relic did quite badly with ToV.

read few forums and character trade might be implemented in the future, aside from item and gold trade
That would further the exploit and turn D3 into generic so call 'free for all' MMO that
made the game unpleasant to play cuz the effort u put in to build epeen while enjoy the game just got wasted and u feel cheated by the game provider
I'd rather let blizz set monthly fee

I don't remember my streamyx has been disconnected, at least it has been few months, last disconnect was due to super duper huge thunder rofl.

At least, streamyx is the best internet provider in malaysia, you can't deny it.
