  • and plus resistance it is, sir :-)

  • @xDougs1 nicetroll

  • "Were going gold in a couple of weeks."

    3 weeks later still no release.

    So much for this 'source.'

  • why is one of the top comments an advertisement for a phony beta key offer? thumbs down that bitch

  • srsly bunch of idiots raging over going back to town, get a life....

  • more health from globes to vitality is a great idea

    more magic resistance from intellect is a great idea

  • Hey, if you want a beta key to play diablo, check this:

  • going gold is when the game is ready to be put on hard copy - cd/dvd

  • 0:33:00 - 0:35:00 hahahahahahahahaha OMG i was thinhing PETER MOLYNUEX amd fable series (btw i love fable tlc)

  • not happy that the Mystic has been removed, not one bit. :<

  • Comment removed

  • AAaa a light saber. Oh .. Its the subscribe button :D

  • Hey guys, if any of you don't have keys yet, check this vid:

    bit.ly\w1jcFV

    I got one there

  • No. Diablo is not wow with a different storyline , if anything wow is diablo with a different storyline. :)

  • Anything noob friendly is good for me!!! (I hate numbers)

    I love games and play a lot of them, but I suck at most of them.

  • this is just wow all over again, u can craft stuff (jewlcrafting an blacksmithing), theres an auction house talent builds, not bad mouthing just saying, its wow again, just a different story line

  • 1:20:20 "People who are this dedicated to D3 are a very small portion of the overall fan base"

    Right at that moment i said to myself "Damn i'm awesome!"

  • Comment removed

  • Sixen is emo and needs a tampon changing :\

  • With respect to removing the Cauldron of Jordan and Nephilim Cube, I can understand the reasoning behind this but considering you can no longer salvage common items, they should at least keep a reduced version of the Cauldron of Jordan that allows you to sell common items on the fly. Blizzard gets their change while keeping with their, "allows you to stay in the action" mindset.

  • I think Blizz is just bein assholes to people about the release date cause were to dam nosey haha

  • One thing you didn't say about the unidentified items - it helps you see what you reviewed and what not in your inventory. sometimes you pick a lot of stuff and if everything is already identified you have no way of telling if that blue item in your inventory is new or it was already there and you examined it before.

  • Talk all the shit you want... We are all STILL going to buy it the minute it comes out. lmao.

  • @FunnyButAverage Alot of us already bought it! Pre order, euh!!!!

  • Games not even out yet and their already ruining the game..

  • I think you've forgotten somethings:

    1 - What about removing the Nephalem Cube OR the Cauldron of Jordan. I personally would prefer removing the cauldron but making whites salvagable again, because making them not salvagable is going to mean a shortage in scrap metal I think.

    2 - Attributes, you're assuming that you can spend 'points' in these from now on, I've not seen that here or in any previous update, Blizz said that attributes are filled automatically!

    Thanks Force,

    I love your work!

  • Also think D3 will be released Q3 of this year, sometime after blizzcon but before christmas.

    If only to allow blizz to milk the WoW annual pass.

    Its all business people. Stop thinking they are friends.

  • @MrKarlSync 1 day after MoP is released so the won't loss many WoW players cuz

    1 player= 12.99 per month let's say 1kk players stop = 12990000 <- that's a lot of money

  • Im another one of those who think the mystic was removed only to be implimented in an expansion. The talisman system will be in the last expansion too.

  • Yeah, significant decrease in quality over the past months. You guys aren't in the room, you're not there in front of the whiteboard with the factors relevant to each decision over each game mechanic. Shut up, give Blizzard some credit, and I'm going to remember how whiny you all are now, half a year down the line when you're all hooked on d3.

  • One hour of my life wasted. I like what you guys do here but you need to be more concise with what you are saying. You repeat so much information here, like you are trying to fill time. You could have easily done this episode in 20-30minutes.

  • hay guys i played star was got to lvl 50 and im a big mmo player but the bigs and on to of that i got my beta key and i think star was can be called fail was lol cant wast for d3

  • If you still wanting for a beta key, heres one easy giveaway to next week

  • If you dont have a beta key, check this giveaway:

  • Its because of an item flaw in the new store. "Delay."

  • This whole crying over potions thing is stupid! In beta potions are a joke. But come hell and Inferno im sure you will LOVE that 5 key!

  • OK great.......now I need to poop.

  • Umm... if you havent noticed white items drop all the time in d2.... did u ever pick them up in that game??? ummm no

  • Don't invite Jessecocks to your show.. He's so fucking annoying

  • @viewsorfree FUCK YOU

  • Make your DiabloCasts come to iTunes! free!

  • No the reason they delay after delay is because they are perfectionists, they work on the game to make it so perfect it can ever become. If they se a flaw the cut it and work on it, thast why no matter how many times their game is delayed its going to be perfect!

  • Nice video!

  • what the hells wrong with going back to town? after 30-60min nonstop combat it feels good to get back to town and chill for a few min, sell stuff, compare items, buy potions, check the stores, salvage. and then get back out again, it takes 5 min. what the hells the problem?

  • @trams90 If after 10 min your inventary is full and you need to go back to town just so you'll have room for better gear later on is ridiculous.

  • Comment removed

  • @trams90 dude RPG players have OCD they pick everything!!! number 1 rule NEVER leave an item/loot behind. Blizz found an amazing solution for a flaw that EVERY rpg, hack and slash had, return to town sell items and fight again.. if you like to go back fine its your choise dnt force everyone to do the same Cube and jordan did their job fine.

  • @xarosXIII I'm feeling so sorry for you. Was it a good feature? Maybe. Did we really need it? I say no.

  • @trams90 You won't be playing 30-60 mins and not fill your inventory 10 times during that period... I'm sure someone has already pointed this out but that only shows how good your argument was... sorry I just can't agree... I'm can assure I will chill out in town enough with my friends even without taking away the means of staying in combat IF I wanted to... think if people in your party constantly has to go back... that would get fucking annoying like in D2, point, point... Peace

  • @Sampopankki fine, maybe its 20-30 min. once people get the hang of it, it will all happen fast, and if ur having problem with your party, play alone

  • @trams90 I'm sure it's gonna be fast like in D2 but theres a point of choice if you wanna keep going OR go back to town to maybe check the shops and stuff... I'll be going back to town just to make the game experience that much better but still wanna keep fighting hordes of demons if I feel like it... "and if ur having problem with your party, play alone" It's not their fault if the system FORCES them to go back to town while D3 AIMS to be party driven game... sorry I bothered... Peace

  • @trams90 its probaly people that are going for things like world first that it may affect most.

    but yeah i agree with you, i mean whats the point in having a town if u never have to go to it?

  • @ViscOnWoW exactly. this game is gonna last for god knows how many years, why are people is such a hurry? (if u dont consider worlds first achi).

  • BRING BACK NEPHALEM CUBE AND JORDAN

  • Comment removed

  • Why are your guests always screaming? It's reallly annoying.

  • PLEASE BLIZZARD, AT LEAST GIVE US THE ABILITY TO SELL ON THE GO... have it where if u want to salvage u have to go to town. but if u dont care and just want to sell it then u can do it though the Cauldron and keep doing what we do best! KILL SH*T

  • @langegabriel16 Sadly it's coming on 2013 we must wait another fuckibg year

  • Force, please upload these things to iTunes, they're perfect for it.

  • would it be a good idea to add the cauldron and cube to end game and not during the campaign?

  • The COJ and NC removal doesn't really bother me at all. I was actually hoping they would some how increase the feeling of the game, by forcing you to go to town and interact with npc's. I still remember interacting with d1..,

  • If someone has a free diablo 3 beta key /W me :p

  • So tired of w8ing for this GAME NEEEED 2 PLAY !!!!!!!!

  • What did they promise that didn't end up in their game????

  • About Cube change~ it might be that they don't have that huge content at diablo 3 later on, so they don't want people to just rush trough entire game, basically removing cube will force every player to visit villages/towns more often.... I really fucking hope that this is not true, game is in development for more than 3 years...if it's not huge that will cause quite some rage around forums.

  • going gold means burning the DVDs... seriously do ur homework

  • for real i need to get in the beta i try to reach blezz and they keep wait for more beta i want the game release to in joy and i'm big fan of you D podcast force keep waiting new stuff .

  • sounds like Phreak.

  • Diablo 2 is the game i most played in my entire life, it counted more hours then any other game i have ever played and right now i play Diablo 2 + LoD + Median XL 2012 (it is a tremendous mod).

    Somehow i feel disapointed with Diablo 3 ... i dont know....

  • I would do this in deferent way. Cube and cauldron should stay in game but using them will only grant 50% of gold/salvage mats. If you want sell/salvage for full amount you port to town. This way you can keep action without your inventory going full, white items still have use and you have option to use town npc. And please Blizz move the health orb bonus to vitality and add resources regen/increase to intellect.

  • Hey just wanted to let you know that theres still 7 skill slots, you can use x to swap out your mouse RMB skill with another skill

  • Star wars nothing like wow Jesse. Star wars fun and story driven. Wow is old not fun and shit story.

  • @bmdshred77 someone hasn't played any of the Warcraft RTS games.

  • @mkim1224 seconded

  • jay wilson in one of the blizcons said that the invintory space was going to be so huge. from what i see is not enough space. and to tie this book into the story u could get one page in each act increasing yer invintory space. and in diablo4 there is a page with some uber demon stuck inside waiting to be found and unleashed.

  • they could call it the book of dimensions cause abviously u cant hold 5 bags on yer back with 30 axes and pauldrons inside. but a book with dimensions inside. is something they could tie into the story

  • ok. if they remove the culdron of jordan and nephlon cube. they should increase invintory space so we can be in the battle longer. i like town portals but. they should keep us out in the fight longer. i have 2 ideas for that. bag slots like wow or. an invintory where u can swap pages. like a book. this is what u have on page1 when that is full. whatever u pickup goes to page 2 and u just flip pages. 5 pages would be good enough for me to stay out in the battle. then go to town. thx :D

  • 40:15 - "It didn't work out in theory"

    Hahahahaha, this is fun.

  • Simple fix blizz. Keep the cauldron and cube, but make the in town options give a 10-20% better return. That's my idea on it. They shouldn't reduce the number of options. People like options and thinking for themselves. Amiright fellas?

  • Quoting from the podcast. "80% of what Blizzard announces doesn't make it into the game, IT'S A FACT!", and also "there's a millions of them [game convention]". Stop talking out of your ass.

  • "I'm not gonna use potions" at level 60? You don't know that, stop whining about it. It is highly doubtful Blizzard will have everyone but melee take damage, seriously, this is not WoW where no one but the tank takes considerable damage.

  • Thanks for going through some of the recent changes! Overall, I'm excited for everything. I would have liked to see the cube and cauldron, but if the towns are more exciting in D3 than in D2, I won't mind returning to town every now and again.

  • I certianly agree with the comments about the changes. Many have made comments on the message boards about Blizzard making the game too much like D2 and I use the analogy of the last Superman movie. They made it too much like the former movies that I kept waiting for a shrine to Chris Reeve somewhere in the movie. Your comments make me realize that perhaps D3 is becoming less and less like its predecessors. I am starting to agree with that.

  • Having just discovered the podcasts, I think its a great thing that someone cares enough to put in the time and energy to discuss these points. My only critique (sp?) is someone needs to learn to say the word BUTTON.....lol. As a former DJ and morning show host, I expect a certian amount of phonics from such a professionaly done program. Kudos gang.

  • for the ones whos dont have a beta key yet

    this vid have some do giveaway youtube.com\watch?v=tWlyY8v7sm­A

  • @Lanaia22 Troll ;d

  • @Lanaia22 their is no "beta key" you have to be added into the opt in beta on blizzard's website. I know because I play the beta and you dont use a key you use your bnet email address to log into the game as long as you have the diablo3 beta on your list of games like I have. Why are you even trying to look cool?

  • i want to like this but it says "Sorry, you can't like or dislike a live video that hasn't aired yet." :(

  • Butt-ehn.

    American accents are lul worthy.

  • The problem for the items is the RMAH =(. So sad... but thats the problem. this game will eventually become in to an empty game...

  • Mr COx makes a good addition to the team supporting the full on casual base. I've been listening to this podcast for a year, but i still feel like I'm just a casual d3 fanatic :D

  • In a group I figure that the tanking in their face barb will be getting the orbs to sustain, others will need to pot. Maybe you need to kite away from orbs to heal so thats were pots are needed but a dedicated button is just to much.

  • Great Podcast / Mudcast for the Cauldron and cube!!! Perhaps they just placed it in BETA so people could focus on fast testing the game without going up and down all the time.

    But u have to keep in mind that most Diablo fans are between 30-40 years old now, come on man, we need some resting time to!!! I need Tristram to relax and give my circeling eyes a moment of peace.

  • @appel2006 I've been a fan since the fourth grade, why not have the choice. Casuals/Hardcore

  • Wait a minute. So now you place points into Attributes? its no longer added per/level for you? These changes!!

  • Anyway, health orbs work after you kill the monsters. If you have tons of enemies around you and fragile bodies like spellcasters (no strength - armor investment), you won't be able to get these orbs.... you will be dead. So, potions actually make more sense for spellcaters than other characters that can take hits.

  • Apart from that spellcatsers by lore are more intelligent beings that spend their time training their brains and not their muscles. Thus, they are that clever to find a magical way to increase health from other means than having buff bodies, etc. health orbs!

  • Jay said that the frequency of life orbs will be reduced anyway, if i am not wrong.

  • Actually guys the stat changes is good thing I believe! Since I will get for example a wizard i don't want to spend any points on strenght or dexterity or even vitality. I want to focus on intellect to power up my spells. And since spells power up from weapon damage, it will be unfair to spend points on strength. Apart from that in previous games like diablo ii if you add everything to vitality and not much to other stats you were the king! I think that is crap for a building a character.

  • Intellect should give a increase in cast rate/ a decrease in cd one of those would be great for botht he wizard and which doctor class :)

  • Possibly, but thats speculation. Its silly for you guys (podcast guys) to be saying "I wish we knew why they took those out!!" When they SAID why in the dang release. They were redundant and you wont be picking up white/grey items

  • I kindda think they removed the cauldron because they want to increase the value of gold. When you can just transform an item into gold in seconds it would make it much easier to gather gold and therefore decrease its value.

  • Why do you guys completely ignore and NOT talk about the reason Jay gave that they got rid of the Cube and Cauldrun? He spelled it out for crying out loud. THey added the Cauldrun and Cube BECAUSE they were not going to have Scrolls of town portal. But they fixed that issue... it no longer breaks combat to have town portal. So, the purpose of the Cube and Cauldrun are gone.. redundant. FOr crying out loud even if you don't like that reason.. at least mention it!

  • @Holysnowva No need to keep? No need to remove Just leave them

  • You three guys are a awesome mix! I love the fact that you all have different aspects :D High Five! :D

  • @ForceSC2strategy

    Force , i like that guy jessy is awesome and i like he is not the typical blizzard defender . He speaks the truth so directly.

    That guy is awesome. Invite him in more Pds :P

  • It wasn't bad, I like bouncing ideas, and thoughts between people. Gives the info a 360 View

  • Comment removed

  • 1-2-3-4 could be skills and 5 should be whatever the F***K of an item you want there..

    I would love if you could Hotkey all your skills and items.. Hate to be told what buttons to i HAVE to use!

  • @JeEhaO Loved that about wow the total interface customization hotkey everything on the bars the gave you if you wanted or move bars around using addons to make you own little button mash group of skills. Why should d3 struggle with using 1234 lmc, rmc, and a alt mc.

  • @SkirkCommander There should be options for more buttons, bars, or hotkeys. Gamers like to customize, personalize, and really get a feel for there characters so on the go they can do things much faster without thinking even when that skill thats not right on your bar needs used for a temporary affect

  • Why dont they just make a belt like in diablo2 and you press F1 F2 F3 F4 to use potions?

    Or just make so you can change hotkeys like in starcraft2.. It works perfectly

  • Its funny, blizzard have always said they will never do harm to co-op, its thier main design philosophy. Now they have removed the cube and the cauldron forcing you to leave your friends and go back to town while they kill a boss without you. Huge facepalm moment.

  • @ImpOverpower Seriously I agree WoW proves this with its interruptions in raids/ dungeons the last thing we need is someone going back cause he feels its he has to pick everything up. The bag space just isn't wow bag space, its still that small little box like d2 ya the items are smaller but is there 100+ slots for you to hold your loot no.

  • DEAR BLIZZARD.

    Remove Gold find and Magic find from gear, and implement it into characters another way.

  • Anybody else thinking what I'm thinking? That the Mystic will show up again in the expansion?

  • @androsh Or they decide its to much work to leave it and have balance so to release faster they do this and say maybe later. Like whens later?

  • You don't even know what the term "going gold" means and you're making video games podcast?

  • i got feeling that we will not get D3 till 2013 :(

  • what is wrong with this guy in the podcast? I don't mind at all going back to town after about 30-60 min of nonstop combat. Cool down a little, sell some items, compare stuff, buy potions? whatever. it's just for a few min and then ur out again, whats the fucking problem`?

  • hope it gets released before the end of 2012. i hope it aint going to turn out like Duke nukem forever

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I was thinking that most of the system changes actually have to do with the fact that mundane items have no function anymore. This would mean you pick up a lot less loot and have a lot less issues with limited inventory space and you can take care of selling / prospecting at down time points where you are going back to town anyway.

    If this is correct it makes sense to remove those items as you would hardly be using them, it also shifts down time moments to logical time i.e. when you are in town

  • No i don't think its a bad thing, i just think 10 years is a long time for a graphics patch

  • INT reduce amount of arcane power, or percentage of cooldown? A very....very...small percentage of cooldown per point? Or just increased Mana recovery?

  • it says I can't like the video since it hasn't aired yet..... but I like it :-D

  • i really love your show :) i watch it everytime :) but hey guys you really need to know what "going gold" means :) im dissapointet :) ... just joking :)

    but " going gold " is not "Blizzards Way" of telling us that the game is ready - every company uses this term - it means that the "Goldmaster CD" is going to the factory for massproduction !

    but the show was great as always ! cant wait for next friday :)

  • I was wondering can we rebind all our keys?

  • Heres how to fix that. put a cooldown on the use. Done

  • So Diablo 3 is going to get dumped down to oblivion even before it is released? With every new information about the game, it is getting simpler, smaller and easier. I'm on the verge of not even buying the game and I've been waiting this game for years. Makes me really sad to be honest.

  • Was looking forward to wathcing (hearing) this, but then Jesse Cox.

  • @TilenP yes thats what i thought to - altough the podcast was still great and i love it but i think the should not invite him to often - it makes the show kind of a cirkus when he is there -

  • Guys, it's April 1st. I can't believe you fell fo..... Oh.

  • So we're basically getting D2 with better graphics?

  • @sevenofclubs You are saying it like thats a bad thing...

  • So we're basically getting D2 with better graphics?

  • you cannot create melee wizard without mystic :(

  • Hooray jesse!!! Boo kevin!!

  • I wish I could agree with what they are saying but in ever got the chance to play the diablo 3 so I really don't know what the difference is. All I want is for the game to be out...

  • Cant u fkn talk normally 43:00 u sound like a fkn retard trying to push hes crap out

  • Read Bashiok's posts, whine less. If not having to town was the most exciting thing about the game for you, you are not worthy of it! xD

  • One thing that annoys me is Blizz's attitude at Blizzcon. They said things like "This is D3, if you want things like D2, go play D2" and scoffed at people wanting older gameplay elements. Now they're making this game MORE like D2. What the hell, hypocrites?

    Anyway, I basically agree with all of your rantings. This is getting annoying. I mean, what did they do for the last 4 years? JUST the art and cutscenes? Isn't a little programming and playtesting supposed to happen?

  • i just watched the whole thing, i'm such a fanboy. :)

  • When cant everyone play the beta

  • Why vant everyone play the beta

  • horray Jesse

  • this is madness!! This is SOPA!!

  • This is such bullshit. They are making this game worse. I really wanted to play as a Wizard and do PvP, but now it seems really shitty to make a Wizard who won't have dodge or armor because the main stat is intellect. This is such a flawed new system it's just fucking terrible. You also shouldn't have to click on the town portal button. We had hotkeys in Diablo 2... why not in Diablo 3. I am very worried for Diablo 3's future. Bad mechanics = Worse game.

  • Loved the podcast this week guys! It seemed more energetic, passionate, and genuine than some of the previous podcasts.

    Looking forward to more like this!!

  • blizzard so failed this time. After 3 years or maybe 11, who knows, they came to the conclusion that old systems and features in D2 were better than the new ones so they need to delete them and start over... Diablo 3: The Neverending Story

  • Just because something always happens (contradictions), that doensnt mean that it should happen and you should just accept it because it always happens :).. reasons are there for a "reason" and should make sense :)
