This is true, which is why I have been lobbying for a section of this forum just for people like you to bitch about the game to their hearts content.

alas all I can do is request that you take action and stop crying on what should be a legitimate place for d3 discussion.

You are not furthering the community with your threads, You are just complaining.


tbh, he never cried about anything lol

how come whenever some1 gives an opinion, ppl assume its "crying"

Servers will most defiantly be separate.
Anyway...PC gamers are just as shitty as Console so I don’t know why you have got your knickers in a twist.

...That doesn't change the fact that Minecraft on Xbox Live is an incredibly outdated version that doesn't get properly updated and lacks support of many of the features that made Minecraft so popular to begin with.



Diablo 3 may get released on console, and it may even be successful. Probably not as successful as the PC version, because that's been absolutely huge, but it could still sell well. But it'll probably a simpler hack and slash without quite the meta game surrounding it that it has now. It's like how Dragon Age on the consoles is so much dumbed down because you just can't react and control like you can on the PC.

Well then imagine a Diablo 3 that didn't have all its features stripped to make it how it is now (optimized for consoles)

They need us to beta test it before the game goes live on Retail discs

If they were to sell a broken console game in stores. People would be complaining more than PC fanboys are.

Makes sense, there aren't any huge online mmo/rpg games for consoles nowadays so its a good market

You'll be happy to know that Diablo 3 was setup to be a console game.

The reason only 4 players are allowed into a game is for 4 controllers.

The reason the quests make you walk in a linear closed circuit as opposed to big open worlds. is to keep your buds next to you on the same screen.

The reason for no skill points or complicated number crunching? to make console players happy.

The company who made D3? ACTIVISION - Known for console games.

The reason you have 4-5 skills on your bar at once? Very easy to use a XBox / Ps3 controller to use skills.

The reason no runes / complicated shit exists. Simply wouldn't be fun for console gamers.

The reason you cant make game name? Auto join for console users.

The reason for Achievements in game? It's popular among console / COD fans.

The reason for passive skills? Perks like Call of Duty uses.
Everyone unlocks perks and uses their favorite ones.

we're just beta testing for the console release so it wont be full of bugs.

that's how Acti-Blizz intends to make the real money.

Also explains why the game doesn't have VoIP for Pc gamer chat.

Hope this isn't true but ever since I saw the dumbed down shit this game has going for it.
I believe it is true.

The modern day Call of Duty of ARPG's

A Blizzard Job listing.
CodeA job listing has appeared on Gamasutra’s Job Connect website and Blizzard’s own job section looking for a “Senior Producer, Console Diablo III.”

If the job title wasn’t enough to convince you, the description adds:

The ideal candidate has prior experience in console game development and has a keen knowledge of how each discipline operates and interacts.


Makes sense ^^
