  • I'm going to receive this game for free from this online website .. Can't wait for it though :)

  • @RobertJLobdell , Can you please link me to the website ? I want to get it too ..

  • The white loot is there because of the drop rate. If we have like 10,000 items droping out of Durael, the drop rate for the best items are very low. If we have like 1000 items total dropping out of him, the best items will have a lot higher drop rate.

  • 'Awesome dragon of lore'? Maybe he meant PhrozenDragon?

  • patching "scroll of companion" out could be also a way to make botting harder.

  • Jesse is so loud and obnoxious...

  • they should make hammer of the ancients a bigger 360 degree aoe cuz i personaly like it better then seismic slam, but seicmis slam does way more dmg, and is almost ranged cuz its aoe goes so far ahead. the +15% seems to be poor compinsation

  • WTF IS TITAN!?

  • Comment removed

  • Actually WHITES WERE USEFUL FOR RUNEWORDS!!!! AND I WAS DOING RUNS FOR HOURS TO GET THE PERFECT % dmg for an epic rune word!!!

  • It's so blatantly obvious that the removal of the cauldron and cube is to help regulate gold income. I thought this last 'cast and was surprised it took you guys so long to think about it this 'cast. If you have a high income with nothing to spend it on then you end up with the situation we had in Diablo 2 where gold was near worthless.

    Also, Jesse is massively annoying and every time you agree with him, Force, Blizzard delays Diablo 3 another month. And kills a kitten. Stop it.

  • Sorry, I meant "It's already done for specific instances" in that there's some other log-in service, where the user would initially log in the extra service and link it so that subsequent visits won't require manual log ins. THQ also has one if you want to link your game to their Saints Row site and services. Not enough to do cross-platform play per se, but to be able to share characters, and community content and such, some of which is usable cross-platform. You just don't sell stuff on it.

  • Just to let you know, battle net connectivity while a little unlikely is possible on consoles. It's already done for specific instances. EA has you link into their account structure for their games even on consoles such as PS3 and 360 in which you link to your account. Ubisoft also has their Ubisoft service, which is also done that way. Exceptions can be made if the company is big enough to release a lot of hit software, or if the game itself is in high enough demand to introduce the connection.

  • HAHAHA

    Diablo stressball XDXD

    I'm still laughing

  • Jesse Owns Chris and makes him go "dafuq"

    /watch?v=pYsDTlRi7mA&feature=r­elated

  • dawdwad

  • hey,hey evereyone! GREAT NEWS!

    BLIZZARD have said that D3 will be released SOON

  • @hower4o the release date is allready set on 31 march...

  • @T0mMeTje who lied to you?

  • @hower4o An site where you can buy it, and you have it on 31 march :D

  • @T0mMeTje there is no official release date from blizzard just yet so what you have seen on that site is just a guess so they can get more and more preorders in order to make more money...

    besides there is no way blizzard will say when D3 will be released and force wouldn't post a video up for it ;)

    if he has one please send me :)

  • @hower4o Ok I don't know anything about that it's a good site :D

    But you could be right tho :(

    so we'll see

  • Force please dont invite Jesse anymore hes a fukkin idiot he screams a shitload has nothing good to say and acts lika fukking idiot all the time:S dont you get tired off it all the screaming damn i just wanna punch that guy in the face!

  • LOL, I agree with jesse, I know I'm not the only one who gets a good feeling of cashing in all those white item's and getting gold, It just feels awesome watching your inventory turn to gold :D, sucks they took it out, cause the people who didnt want to pick that stuff up wouldn't have to.

  • force and jesse, then sixen nerdily eeps in to feel part of the group

  • Dont like jesse either

  • dont know what you strict old hags talking about but i think Jessy is fantastic.

    First of all making this podcast more funny.If you got humor problems go see political conversation on CNN. This is about video gaming , supposed to be for younger audiences and why not be funny.

    And lastly , like Jessy or not , that guy talks the truth/his thoughts directly. I appreciate this , not like others that trying to stay somwhere in mid.

    About his voice it has to do with Mics input/output,not his voice.

  • @Azatis Jesse is not being funny, rather making a clown of himself. Sure, it's about gaming and may be intended for younger audience, but as far as I recall, D3 has an M rating. It's not the teletubbies. I find Jesse's rambling very annoying, as if he was trying too hard to be humorous, randomly cute or whatever, but in my opinion fails hard. I dislike him and wish Force would just stop casting with him.

  • I'm srry but I just HATE Jesse! He sounds so childish and just plain stupid...

  • Usually i like Kevin but it does annoy me how he seems to have a massive problem with Jesse, i have to admit Jesse is loud but hey thats how he does his casts. Usually like Kevin though as he always does see both sides to things although in end of day DENNIS IS GOD ^^

  • Is it just me or is Jesse always super loud and over powering?

  • @HaploJH84 thats what jesse does...he is pure amazingness

  • @HaploJH84 Yeah, he's a loud, annoying, motherfucker.

  • Hey I really love all the videos you've been posting. I've been playing D2 and then my account was hacked, so now im using your videos to cope with not having D2 or 3. I wish I could get my hands on the beta that would pass the time till D3 release. but i doubt i could :( but thanks again for the great videos.

  • I don't get why they removed scroll of identity. Did they really want people not picking up any white items that badly? It just doesnt seem right just right clicking it, at that point why have the items unidentified at all? You cant even sell Unided items in the AH

  • I like how the guy near the end when they're talking about I Am Alive he gets it confused with Naughty Dog's The Last of Us.

  • What do you want for those BETA keys?

  • @ForceSC2strategy White items in D2 were not useless. They were sometimes extremely valuable, and a lot of them were very tradeable if you had to make runewords out of them, like enigma, fortitude, faith, and so one. Some white items, like Paladin scepters with +3 First of Heavens and +3 Convinction would sell for 35 High Runes.

    One of the things awesome about D2 is that there were great items for all item classes - whites, blues, yellows, etc.

  • Jesse should shut up, he is fuckin iritating me.

  • @WoWashikabi Jesse Cox is a beast bro your irking me

  • hoorray Jesse's there

  • You may or may not have some Christmas presents from blizzard your not sharing eh?

  • Is there any way you can rent an account to play the beta? i'm literally dying here - willing to pay upto 250$ for a key, PM if interested... cant wait any longer for thsi shit it's getting ridiuclous.

  • id like to bring this up, Final Fantasy XI was on "PlayOnline" and they had ps2 xbox360 and PC playing together, and it worked fine battle.net should be fine!!!!!!!

  • willing to buy D3 "soon"

  • do you think they will wait for the new consoles for the release of d3 on them or will it make it within months of the pc release

  • So Force you goona do anymore lets plays for D3. Would love to see some updated play throughs.

  • nothing more fun than holding alt and seeing trash items covering the entire screen. this is why i play diablo. good call blizzard.

  • 49:06 "It's gonna blow your balls off!"

  • Just gonna leave this here :p

    "Blizzcon 2012 has been cancelled. They explained they want to spend their resources on MoP/D3/HotS. "

  • i'm from korea but i think blizzard is just acknowledging korean fans. there is no cultural reason we would ask blizzard to make youtube videos. but strangely, they have a separate youtube account for us. english, german, french, spanish, and russian are all on the same account. i can only guess maybe the special attention is because of our competitive gaming market.

  • I think Jump Kick a Baby is a good incentive for blizz

  • I forgot all about Jesse! I need to go check this channel out again. He used to crack me up.

  • ARrhhhg i dont know Blizzard Jesse Smash!!! AHAHAHHA LOVE IT!

  • blizzard is really just making want to get my preorder back more and more. im about to just go play SWTOR and call it good. fuck you blizz. FUCK. YOU.

  • My guess is that a lot of players in the bata have been selling items by mistake. Because players where playing with there inventory open and unintentionally selling good items. That is my guess as to why they removed the caldron and cube. If I broke down a Stone of Jordon while intending to to break down junk I would be pissed. Maybe they noticed that was a problem in testing.

  • jesses a fag helllllooo

  • for the fact that bashiok said they would make white items basically worthless, that's why I think they took away caldron of jordan otherwise you would pick up every item and sell it

  • Jump kick a baby!

  • lol squirtle

  • "I Am Legend" book >"The Last Man on Earth" > "The Omega Man" > "I Am Legend" film > "I Am Omega"

  • blizzard ,i have to use the rest of my holidays from work before end of april so you'd better release the game at least before the last week of april dammit!

  • so fun to listen

    ..

  • Project Titan is all I have to say about no Blizzcon.

  • @larsulrich3356 More like Titanic..

  • @Snowstorm456 You may be correct on that...but that is probably part of the problem with not having blizzcon this year.

  • Blizzard lets be honest here. The only reason you start to cut stuff out from the game thats already in it, is so you will be able to realese an expansion with the cool "new" stuff at a later date and get money for it

  • Regarding the conference calls, Q4 has happened or will end by Jan 31, 2012 if it is Fiscal 2011. I'd say Q1 Fiscal would be Feb-Apr 2012. The conference call will talk about what happened in the Quarter not what is expected to happen. Conference calls happen after the quarter has ended.

    However, based on their last year Year-end financial report they actually DO follow calendar year as their fiscal year. Therefore I will assume at the latest end of March, early April for a D3 release.

  • I hate it, you just can have 7 skills activated!!, in Diablo 2 I actually can use 16 different skills activated, from F1 to F12 and another 4 buttons, so I can change it easily, I'll love it if in Diablo 3 they do that, but not...

  • Jesse: MOAR IS BETTER!!!

    Of course you think that, you hoard white items! haha just kidding, I agree. MOAR > NOT MOAR

  • Jessie is on point this week lol The white item issue is complete bs. They made white items grey items, just a different color. There will always be gamers with different playstyles. I prefer to kill more monsters with the time I would normally be looting garbage, some prefer to loot every single item and squeak out a living by selling that shit no matter the cost.

  • "Sorry, you can't like or dislike a live video that hasn't aired yet." - I watched over an hour and I can't rate it good!!! Force u pwn :>

  • Comment removed

  • and ofcourse...Jessy Cocks

  • Arcane Orb: IT'S PURPLE!!

  • Overall, great vid guys, keep em coming.

    I believe the issue of white items being junk is an effort to slow 3rd party RMT, which we all know is a huge problem. Not because it 'screws' the economy of the game, but the lengths these 3rd party companies go to to obtain our gold/items.

    Thumbs up against account theft!

    Sadly i can't have enough characters to say what I want to say so i'm going to submit it on the official forums (remove spaces)

    us. battle .net/d3/en/forum/topic/3967597­970#1

  • Scroll of Companion was one of the coolest features imo they are just dumbing this game down more and more not even excited for it anymore lol.

  • This show has SOOO much more energy with Jesse here, and it's much more exciting to listen to! ;) It was kinda dull before

  • Really digging the podcast with the three of you. It's great having that third point of view. Any chance there will be an audio only version on ITunes (if there isn't already)?

  • Does anyone have any idea if i'll be able to buy Diablo 3 or the Collector's edition on Battle.net digitally.

  • Pokemon champanion for the win! :D

  • Comment removed

  • Blizzard has stated multiple times that they will be releasing 3 games this year so that should mean we do get Heart of the Swarm this year.

  • Thanks for another great podcast, Force!!

  • Diablo has lost all interest for me. Took too long to come out. With guild wars 2, star wars, and sky rim; I have no room for hack slash brainless boredom.

  • @bmdshred77

    then why are you here and listening to this podcast?

  • @bmdshred77 Why are you playing Skyrim then?

  • they are makin it stupid simple....a money mean makin machine...just like popa WOW -_-

  • Blizz is boiling us in the fires of hell !!!!! :"(

  • PICK UP ALL THE WHITES!

  • I am from Korea. and i only guess that video was for the lunar new year(or chinese new year).

  • @MrRctroh ok, but what is the reasoning behind it? you don't see blizzard doing special video for any other country.

  • Anyone feel free to send a Beta Key my way.

  • They meant calendar Q1 not fiscal Q1. A company doesn't use fiscal quarters when announcing public due dates. Also, they had the Q4 conference call during "fiscal Q1" because it takes time to close out the accounting records.

  • Jesse, how do I come in contact with you? Maybe you can contact me please? /Tanari

  • The removal of the Scroll of Companion was just another step to combat gold farmers. Just like what was discussed in the cast, "They can't stop gold farming but they will take measures to slow them down".

  • @Krayzee32 gj on that. now I wont be able to repair my gear because I wont be able to get gold -hard for Goldfarmers = impossible for casuals. GfuckingG

  • Highlights in this podcast that made me laugh pretty hard.

    Simplified tooltips...

    Arcane orb: It's purple.

    Jesse: :Die banshee!!! (in his grandma's voice)..." "I'll jumpkick a baby"

    hahahaha keep up the good work guys.

  • Anyone else think white items might be in there to balance drop rates?

  • question: if barb damage comes from strength, monk from dext, etc... won't the tooltips change? it means the damage isn't based on weapon damage anymore?

    btw, didn't blizz say no blizzcon because 3 games this year? So we get D3, WoW exp AND heart of the swarm... no?

  • IMO they should just take grey items out if they are gonna make white items similar to what they were no reason to have redundancy. Also i am very satisfied with the changes they went with for the tool tips for skill I was one of the people frustrated when I heard they were simplifying it. They ended making a perfect system to tailor to both noobs and vets even if they dont do the option people suggested to them.

  • maybe we could eventually find some gemmed white items? that could be cool... would make a very rare white item be worth picking up to have the gem extracted by the jeweler... another gold sink!!

  • "AWWW BLIZZARD... JESSE SMASH!" mmade me snile :)

  • Dennis, Kevin, and Jesse. Great coverage thank you :)

  • squirtle XD

  • What about if they include an advanced/simple mode that applies to the whole game, like if you want to see and know everything, its there, if you dont wanna know anything, then so be it

  • white items = early game gear / gold

  • Glad I dont have to pick up white items for crafting now.

    Scroll of companion sucked - they'll make something better.

    Love new stat system - now I wont have to swap the same gearset between all of my characters.

    Build committment is important - the Nephalem Altar should be reimplemented to avoid people stopping mid-combat to swap skills.

  • Another reason for removing the cube could be that they want you to talk to the NPC more.You know for more back story.

  • we learn nothing EVER through the conference call

  • Guys, with respect to conference calls, those work in the context of a fiscal year so you're correct about it being Q4 atm. However, with game releases, the quarters refer to the straight forward, intuitive regular year so Q1 = Jan - April

  • Again with this Jesse guy...

  • thank you guys 4 keeping us up 2 date ^^ you guys kept me from reading ^^ thy

  • WoW is dying, give D3 pls!

  • Idk if anyone said anything about it but...

    Calendar Q1 Jan - Mar

    Fiscal Q1 Apr - Jun

    Hopefully it will be calendar Q1....

    And I know it's probably a dumb question at this point but...Will we be able to play D3 offline?

    Any monthly fees?

    Anyways...congrats on the great podcast...

    (I enjoyed the appocalypse talk...lol)

  • @000Detran no and no

    

  • He keeps fucking interrupting. Every time... even in Jay Wilson interviews.... Damn it... STOP INTERRUPTING!!

  • Funny Funny

  • Scroll of companion gone = GOOD. Too cutesy. 

  • @Panoptic555 I have to agree.

  • Nice one guys, lookin' forward to the next one.

    Offtopic, time to stop ACTA!

  • April? i hope not, because that's in 3 months. i'm hoping for February.

  • Arcane Missile: Its purple.

    Best line of the cast, Blizz needs to add this in as the description! Love it Force, Love it.

  • i like Jesse because he is straight up

  • Jesse's existance on the show makes kevin seem less awkward xD. Jesse defiinitely being up there with force as one of my more favorite internet people. Force should do Guild Wars 2 with Total Biscuit in the future too, because of the mutual interest. =3

  • yesterday i was walking around and i fell. I BLAME IT ON THE GOLD FARMERS

  • so many kittens will die...

  • and i still need a damn beta key....

  • This Jesse is a great co-host, whoever he is.

  • That one guy was yelling the whole time

  • Good podcast, Jesse fits in well.

  • lol "try ta win sum money now foo!"

  • i completely agree with Jesse....seriously WTF is wrong with the nephalem cube? and wtf why have uselss wasteful eyetrash...FFS blizz

  • Jesse: "If diablo 3 isnt ot in 3 months ill jump kick a baby!" hahahahaha im 100% with u bro!!!!

  • whos talking at 9:15 ? i like him ALOT.

  • @constipationnow Jesse Cox, or OMFGcata

  • Jesse had I Am Alive confused with The Last Of Us.

  • wow is fucking phail.

  • Probably one of the best diablocast... there were some altercations in the middle of the video, but it was a great discussion

  • whats so hard to understand the game will revolve around gold (aka real money) and if people take white items and sell them for gold now when i say people i mean a LOT of people, that would make amount of gold on battle net in hands of players huge!! So they are explaining if this starts to happend they will reduce the worth!

  • What happened to Diableards?

  • They took away the cauldron because of goldfarmers, They probably took away the goldpicking pet because of goldfarmers who would just run and slauther 3824567923568932 enemies as a bot and get all the gold super easy

  • i am a nerd

  • Wtf i dont care about star craft >:( jessy your to loud

  • They are trying to make the most optimum way to play the game fun not a grind... I dont see how people cant see that. With the cube and cauldron the optimum way to play the game is picking up every last item and salvaging it or selling it. Without them now you kill more demons faster because you are not worried about picking every last item up. While this play style isnt wrong it is most certainly not fun and they want people to have a fun experience. Its not like Blizz is out to get you...

  • Force, FYI: Jay Wilson and other Blizzard Korea videos that just came out were for the Lunar New Year (Jan 23). Many asian countries such as China, Korea, Vietnam consider Lunar New Year the biggest holiday of the year. One of the tradition of Lunar New Year is that you greet all your family and friends for a peaceful and successful year.

  • i like pineapple

  • I agree with bringing back Jesse. He adds that extra color-commentary to this, which is pretty good. This is turning out to be a great 3-man team in which the differing opinions really seem to cover the different thoughts from different Diablo players well.

  • Bring Jesse back again pls. he adds a nice element to the podcast! :D

  • My opinion on the simple tool tips is that I think they went a little too simple with it. Even dynasty warriors was more advanced in their descriptions. What I think they should do is add 2 little words to the short description. You still have to level these abilities up. You need that feedback. They should do it like the other simpler games. A simple 2 word label. {Level 1} And then when you upgrade it, say {Level 2}. That way you know it is better than before, without the math.

  • What is this titan they speak of

  • BETTERRRR???? "insert question maRK" AHAHAHAHAHHAHA

  • White items were really important in D2, i enjoyed scanning the screen for white items that can be useful for rune words. I had many mules full of this.

  • You know If D3 don't come out this year i swear to god it will become the Duke Nukem of 2012

  • @krausier still pissed off over duke nukem lol... my childhood hero in 3rd grade
