>>48350739>diablo-3-jay-wilson.jpgWhy is it not called "Me.jpg"?Also, you don't make games, you aren't even looking into the camera, you're just a random guy with no skills and no future. You will destroy your company and the franchise and Bobby will fuck you in the ass.
will there be any dinosaurs other then raptors?
>>48350776>You ruins it.
>>48350911>competetive gamingplz no forced e-sport gaylordsness.It ruined WoW already.
Is it safe to expect a triceratops boss-like encounter?
Will there be a T-rex or a Brachiosaur?
>>48350860DERP TROLLAN>>48350869No release date has been discussed yet.There will be plenty of Diablo 1 & Diablo 2 references ingame>>48350870There are several different color palette's for each creature. The common one is Dark green with a poisenous yellow tint>>48350915DERP TROLLAN <Awesome Face>
Is it safe to say it's going to be WoW graphics with a 3/4 perspective and therefore utter shite?
>>48351037DERP TROLLAN
Why are there rainbows and pink unicorns in diablo 3?
How do I
Who the fuck are you and why should i care?
The screenshots we are seeing are from the PS2 version?
So whenever you get a statement you don't like you resort to DERP TROLLAN.You are a shit troll.
Are the rumors of a hidden dinohearder class true?
>this threadDERP TROLLAN
>>48351156DERP TROLLAN
>>48350952No, Most creatures don't have many similarities with real life creatures. at best anything that resembles dinosaurs will be a farfetched mutation , or hellish spawn>>48350978PVP will be completely different then PVE? not unlike Wow where they influence eachother indirectly.>>48350993>>48351015Whats with all the Dinosaur questions ?
how many classes will there be?how many expansion packs?
will there any possiblity of extracting dna with the horadric cube in order to recreate extingiushed lizards?
>>48351182TROLL DERPAN
>>48351231>extinguished
why can't I be a paladin?
where do babies come from?
>>48351066Graphics don't influence gameplay in any way>>48351095Secret Unicorn level ?>>48351119I am Jay wilson and you should not care>>48351120No>>48351122I reply "DERP TROLLAN" to posts that are clearly from a troll. Stuff like Graphics, or overused shots at WOW <-> Diablo3>>48351132No>>483511845 Classes plannedSeveral expansion ideas are up on the table
Can I be a dinosaur?
can i be final boss of act III?
>>48351398>Secret Unicorn levelplease be real
>>48351231No>>48351402And No
Really ? Whats with all the Dinosaur questions ?
Will Starcraft ever be released?
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
>>48351508Dinosaur always related
>>48351562I don't work on Starcraft III have played several campaign maps and i had alot of fun.>>48351565I don't know, Do you ?
I am not trolling. The characters from Diablo III remind me way too much of WoW. So, why the change?
what are all the setting for the acts?will there be more than one town per act?
Why a jellytoastlike Voodoo-man instead of grimdark necromancer?
So instead of a secret cow level, a secret unicorn level....Neigh.Neigh.Neigh.Neigh.
>>48351645You have probably been playing Wow too long, Addicted wow players tend to compare everything to Wow, even reality.
What about Dinosaurs as Diablos servants in Hell?
Why would a game developer come to /v/ to discuss an unrealeased game, take the time to research lingo (e.g. "DERP") and trolling habits of the board's denizens, BUT not timestamp his OP or give any proof of his claims, knowing this way no one would take him seriously?
>>48351623If I knew the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow why would i be asking it retard?
what is the last cahracter that is missing?
>>48350739will blizzard laugh at the fanboys and have the secret cow level full of smiling suns and rainbow bridges?
WIll it have any nudity? Please respond.
What the fuck is taking you so long? Also do you have hair around the ring of your asshole?
Secret Unicorn level with T-Rex Boss.and Raptor minions.
Monthly cost or free to play?
>>48351659What do you mean with settings ? do you mean locations ?Flatlands, Deserts, swamps, thats all i can say really.>>48351682it was chosen pretty early on that we wouldn't be using all of the same classes as Diablo 2 had.We wanted to combine and mix certain builds and eventually a class came out that ended up being the Witch doctor
any information that is to be known when the game is released, and only you know, and that when i do get the game, i can assure myself that this was from a guy who worked on diablo 3?
>>48351565African or European?
>>48350739How does it feel to have left Relic for a bunch of fags?Does it feel good? Are devteams really no band of brothers, but merely employees under a certain house?Why do I actually ask you something even though you are not the person you claim to be?
How about telling something we cant find already from wikipedia you asshat?
>>48351845yes and yes
so jay, why did you have to take away my necromancer class? what class am i going to play now? dont you dare suggesting that jungle monkey witch doctor.
The last class has go to be some sort of knight right?how can there not be a fucking guy with armor and a shield
Why are you making it run on the same engine as WoW? Is it because you know only shit-eating Blizz fanboys are going to buy it?
>>48351756Same reason you are here, saging a thread. Boredom.>>48351820Perhaps>>48351844No.>>48351853Free to Play>>48351845Developing a game takes a long time, especially if you don't rush to release
>>48352061Sword and shield is for pussies.Real men use their fists.
>>48352091Yeah but you would think that there would be some sort of knight going after Diablo. How the fuck can there not be?
THE ONLY REASON YOURE NOT GOING TO RELEASE IT YET IS THAT YOU WANT TO MAKE MORE MONEY ON WOW EXPANSIONS. PROVE ME WRONG
>>48352086>ignoring the guy who asked what the last class was>ignoring the only question with answers we can confirm in the near future
>>48352084We tested the very first alpha releases on the Wow engine. as soon as our Diablo III engine was completed we switched over to D3 engine, it no longer runs on the Wow engine.>>48351936Why would i come here with my name on display and break my contracts ?
>>48352313so then what is the point of asking you questions?
How do we know you're really Jay Wilson and not some basement dwelling 14 year old having fun?
>>48352313So i would suspect my question>>48351918won't be answered?
>>48352313>implying we can take a tripfag srsly
>>48352352Theres stuff i can say that hasnt been asked yet. And theres questions that have been asked a gazillion times that i can't awnser
so what's the 5th class gonna be? any hints at least?
>>48352313protip: renaming the same engine "The Diablo 3 Engine" does not mean it is something new.
>>48352412Alright tell us something most of us probably don't know
>>48352412are there any dinosaurs that play a role in the storyline? Like T-Rex the 4. who is King of the Raptors on his throne in his Lizardtemple.
Will the last class be a gunpowder/inventer sort of guy with steampunk-ish weaponry?
>>48352548yes, what about the dinosaur thing?
>>48352412>gazillionNo self respecting person writes that shit after the age of 14.
>>48352470Nope, it doesnt. its not the same engine however
What loot exactly will be assigned? What loot will be free for all?
whyreally, whyyou people cannot be this dumb
>>48352313>ask me anything>don't ask me stuff I can't answer>don't ask me stuff you can't answer>don't ask me anything
What about me?
>>48352647All loot except for class specific items(Think paladin targe, Assasins's claws) and quest items will be free for all
>>48352768obvious, troll is obvious
>>48352768What about loot from bosses?
>>48352791IF IT WAS SO OBVIOUSWHY DID IT TAKE YOU THIS LONG TO POINT IT OUTYOU FUCKING MORON
WILL THERE BE A NECROMANCER CLASS
>>48352813Same idea.A boss will for example drop 4 items for each player.The players then pick up the items , if they decide they do not want them, they can throw them back on the floor at wich point other players can see the drops and they become free for all.>>48352768in this context i mean free for all as player only loot, till they re-drop it.I.E. Witch doctors won't be able to see wizard only items drop
>>48352470protip: You don't know a fucking thing about engines or game development so stop pretending that you do.
please bomb the blizzard hq so we never have to deal with their shitty, overhyped moneywhoring shit-games.
>>48353004Don't pretend like you do. silly troll
>>48352992I'm pretty sure that they've said that barbarian is the only returning class.
will there be a romance option?
>>48353118no
>>48353100God damnit.
>>48352993So if I play with a friend for a bit, he's a monk and I'm a witch doctor, if a monk item drops it'll automatically go to him?What about if I'm solo, will I only be able to find witch doctor items?
someone should have posted this a long long time ago
The fifth class is obviously of the archer type.
>>48350739
>>48353182Yes, thats how it works.We didnt want players to find items they could not use.It might still be changed for multiplayer but single player will most likely stay like this
>>48353145fuck you then, aint gonna buy this shit
>>48353302That's kinda silly though, I mean a trading economy is based around the concept of finding stuff you don't need and trading it for stuff you do need. If you can't find items others want, then...
Is there going to be any romance in this game?
who will use shields?
>>48353287Fucking A+
>>48353356Why would you want to find a Witch doctor item as a monk in single player ? you have no use for it besides selling it to a vendor.If by solo you ment Multiplayer alone then thats what i ment by it might still be getting changed.
>>48353356there will probably still be uniques and shit that every class can use and wants it's just the Barbarian only shit will go to the Barbarians
>>48353415No, its a ARPG, Not a fancy dating sim
Can't you guys see that the graphics look too much like WoW or did you stopped caring at one point?
>>48350854>>48350831Screen capped for failed viral.
>>48351645I'll answer for him.3D happened.
Why did you ditch the paladin class? The game is all about fighting evil, and it's just not the same if i can't smite the wicked in shining armor.
>>48353356That would give barbarians a theoretical advantage. Since they can use the most different types of equipment, they would be able to sell to more players than a sorcerer who can only pick up fewer types of items.
>>48353687I've heard this a thousand times and its exactly the same every time. we have responded to this argument as many times aswell.
>>48353597Right.How viable will deviating character builds be? For example, playing as a melee Wizard? I read that you're aiming to have even more character customization than in earlier games so I assumed that meant that a melee Wizard would be more viable than a melee Sorc was in D2.Melee Sorc worked pretty well but suffered because of the very low physical damage, meaning you can't leech much.
Are you planning to release the old classes together with the expansions? Will we see the return of the Amazon, Paladin and Necromancer?
>>48353677Fuck off, give us succubus romance options or no buy.THE MARKET DEMANDS IT.
>>48353876Who would want a necro when we have the Witch-D?
>>48353750This. The paladin is one of the most iconic classes of the diablo universe along with the barbarian.
>>48353750You have the fucking monk
>>48353933I would.
>>48353886Sorry, not all gamers are ronery shitbags.
>>48354061Canonically the D2 Paladin started going nuts after Travincal, I surmise he'll pop up in D3 as either a driven-mad templar or as someone who'll help you a little bit and then madly sacrifice himself to advance the story.
>>48353876No>>48353840Auto stats allow us to control what items certain classes will be able to use. what builds will be possible and not.Everyone on the team really enjoyed un-orthodox builds like melee Sorc and we will defenitly not exclude the possbility of these offbuilds
>>48354080>Bald old fart in a robe vs a warrior of justice clad in shining mailReal hard choice there bro.
>>48353750>>48354061Yeah I think they fucked upwith only one class left and no archer type or knight type class in the current roster something is going to be missing unless they merge paladin and amazon together
>>48354061The paladin is also present in WoW, and they actually feared that people said "AHAH FAGGOTS THEY KEPT THE SAME CLASS".Pratically, it's your fault if we don't have Paladins, you and your shitty nitpicking.
>>48354196Holy warrior with a bow? Workable.
>Jay WilsonJASOOOOOOOOON
YOU SAID THERE WAS GONNA BE SHINING PLATE ARMORWHERE IS MY SHINING PLATE ARMOR
WHO WILL LOOT SHIELDS IF THERE IS NO KNIGHTS?
ARE THERE COWS? BRANDISHING WEAPONS?
>>48354238Valkyries?Tho to be mythologically correct, the class would have to gender restricted.
>>48354235Regardless of anything that is announced people will always find a way to turn our words against us.its exactly as you say, if we kept necromancer the same there would be complaints about not being innovating enough, instead of not keeping the necro
There has got to be one more heavy armor classBarbarians can't be the only ones going to use plate armor
>>48354399>ValkyriesOh god yes... just ditch the gender restriction, it's a gme, it doesn't need to be mythologically correct.
>>48354399>female barbarian>female monk>female witch doctor>female Archivist.. wait, nevermind
>>48354178>No.Then I guess no D3 for me. The classes so far are nowhere near interesting.Hell, that April's Fools class of a dude that used books as lethal weapons was better than the current selection.
why did you approve d3's character design? i mean diablo 1 and 2's characters are kinda slim. when i saw d3's character design, they seem kinda beefy and cartoony.im a south east asian. i was expecting d3's character design to look exactly like SUN:Soul of the Ultimate Nation.second question. are you going for high res, high poly character faces like mass effect 2 and metal gear solid?
>>48354573Even I can tell you the answer to that one, no.
Last class is: Tauren Hunter
>>48354555Fair enough, We weren't expecting to cater to everyone's needs.
> picture is just some random dude that went to blizcon, he doesn't actually work for blizzard.So how many of you got trolled.
>>48354626lol who would actually pay to go to blizzcon?
>>48354573>are kinda slim>D2 Barbarian>SlimNo you papuan shit.
>>48354573No, our design goals for every game has always been to make the requirements as accesible as possible to everyone.Innovating detail and revolutionizing graphics arent our priority.
>>48354573>SUN:Soul of the Ultimate Nation.>look for it on googleIt's a shitty korean looking game, you fucking fooled me.
>>48354399
>>48354616can i just say, thanks for destroying diablo. that was the only thing blizzard had left now they have nothing but casual/childrens shit. i'm sure you'll make a lot of maoney but you won't be making any good games.
>>48354711A whole lot of retards, considering that shit is always sold out.I even happen to know one dude who was willing to put up with 200 eur worth of transportation just to get there, let alone the price of the ticket and lodging.
For the Wizard spell Blizzard, is the Area of Effect any less than it was in Diablo II?Additionally, as it is a "Tier 4" Spell, and not a "Tier 5" Spell, would that make it not viable for long-term dependence on it?I could get used to another skill but I really like Blizzard :<
>>48354834You're welcome KEVIN SHITDICK, enjoy your failed trolling
>>48354386there are no shields in this game
I am going to pirate the shit out of this game. Online is for fags anyway.
>>48354969Please... just please say you are trolling.
>>48354834>implying Diablo 2 "dark mood" wasn't due to shitty hardware limitationsDOHOHOHO
hey jay wilson, if your still answering, please tell me, why starcraft uses much better technology like ssao, fp16 hdr, deferred lightning, and diablo 3 is not using that? cant you take that technology and use in d3? after all your in the same company
ICECROWN CITADEL IS SHIT, WRATH OF THE LICH KING IS CASUAL HORSESHIT. GO INTO THE STORYBOARD OFFICE AND PUNCH METZEN IN THE FACE, THEN FIND GHOSTCRAWLER AND SLICE HIS GUMS OPEN. HARDMODES ARE A JOKE AND YOU FAGGOTS ARE ROLLING IN CASUAL MONEY AND YOU LOVE IT. FUCK YOU, FUCK WHAT YOU DID TO WARCRAFT.
>>48354886The radius is a bit smaller then it was in D2,However Runes allow us alot of customization with these little details on every skill.We try to keep every active spell viable for every level.Eventually some might be favored but in the end the plan is to keep every spell & skill usefull.
In one of the videos, the boss executes a brutal killing move on one of the players. What i want to know is that if these killing moves are instakills that can be activated by the boss at any time, or just a fancier way to land a killing blow on a player?
>>48354763im this dude. >>48354573this next question is kinda relevant. maybe too early.diablo 4(four), are you going for realistic graphics by then?
>>48354834>>48354897For some reason i lol'd
>>48355042This. I'm going to steal your game, hate every second of playing it and bitch about it like the neckbeard I am, but I will play it nonetheless and you won't make a penny off me.Lulululs trollan right? No. Fuck you.
>>48355048There are shields ingame with multiple purposes.>>48355088Hardware specifications are subject to being changed untill the gameplay & balance is up to par
ACTIVISION YOUR DICK IS SO DELICIOUS. OH BOBBY, OH BOBBY, NUT IN MY MOUTH BOBBY, OH GOD. OH GODD~~~
are their permanent summons?like you know, not timelimited also, all about summoning plz
>>48355145I can answer it for you.It's really to early to talk of Diablo 4, we don't know how technology will develop by that time, so it's useless even trying to argue about it.All I can say is that realistic doesn't bode too well with low system requirements.
hey jay, im a gurl gamer, and i fing your beard so sexy^_^
>>48350739How about stop wasting time in posting here and GO TO FINISH MY FUCKING GAME YOU FUCKTARD
>>48355140Its kind of a Fancy finishing move.It differs in the fact that it doesnt start the animation if your health reaches 0%When your health drops to a certain % it starts the attack, if you get caught by it you get your head ripped off or impaled, electrocuted & whatnot.>>48355260Good luck, you won't be able to play online.
>>48355447inorite. Isn't he just so suuuupppaaa sugoi desu neee ^____^
>>48355353There are time limited summons and unlimited summons.>>48355610its my free day
>every active spell viable for every levelYESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Jay Wilson you're doing a good job. my question is, will different piece of equipment have their own model and appearance, like in titan quest game, or it will be like diablo 2, where there are pre baked sprites and every equipment makes use of this pool of sprites?
Jay Wilson what is your favourite color?
Can you give us a small, itsy bitsy hint on what the last class MIGHT be?
>>48355982Fuck you. Look at the screenshots.
hi there jay wilson, im here to say diablo 3 is a piece of art kthaxbie
>>48355982It will function in a way similiar to Diablo 2's Appearance system.The pool that the generic items appearances will be picked from is much much larger.By generic items i mean simple white drops like a pair of pants or a sword.alot of higher quality items will have looks that are Unique to the items themselves.
>>48356108its not very hard to figure out the setup of the class.There are shields ingame , a barbarian can use them but he favors 2handed weapons or Dual wielding.There is yet to be a physically ranged class.
>>48356340Amazon :(Disappoint, i am
>>48356213thats exciting to hear that, do you mean uniques will have their own godamn model?
im this dude.>>48354573ugghhh. why jay? why talk about gameplay, balance and characters...the scary feel to diablo 1. the slow pace, the greyish look.diablo 2 is not as scary as 1. d2 feels like mowing the lawn. hardcore feels like chopping down a tree. d1 feels like youre entering the unknown. i hope d3 will feel like diablo 1. i hope i will be scared like the first time i heard the butcher say "fresh meat". i hope d3 will be more of a scary game than a competitive game.
