I'm in and playing!

The character I was trying to create (but kept erroring out) was already there and the game started right away.

Good luck all!

I sent friend invites to everyone from the forum. I'll play around to see how to start my own game, maybe I can invite you guys to it.

Edit: If your on a friends list you can invite them to a party (their game).

Logged on with no problems about 4:30 am and played for a couple hours before work.

Level 8 Demon Hunter now, raised a level of blacksmithing, and made some armor to see how it works. For those who played in Beta, should I continue making stuff or just build up a stockpile of the stuff you salvage until I really need an upgrade?

Still have yet to find a good 1H crossbow for Demon Hunter. Can you make them when you level up blacksmithing more?

Anyone know of a decent site with info on crafting or combat stuff? I think I am doing ok combat wise so I am not overly worried about making the right choices as far as skills etc go, but I am confused how the whole system works? Can I retrain stuff if I get something that really sucks?

Anyone know if you can use your beta character in the retail version?

I assume not. I had no characters available when I logged in either.

Got my witch doctor to level 11. Got up at 2:30 and left for work at 5:30. This game is alot more fun knowing that I get to keep my gear this time unlike beta.

How is the Witch Doctor to play?
I haven't looked too much into it but it seems similar to a necromancer from D2

In what will come as a shock to nobody, a couple of koreans completed the campaign in 7 hours

11:30 a.m. PDT- We are in the process of performing an emergency maintenance for Diablo III servers in the Americas to resolve several issues that are currently impacting the game. This maintenance may cause some interruption in communication, ability to log in, use of in-game features, and disconnections. We anticipate all servers will be available for play at approximately 1:30 p.m. PDT. We will provide further updates as necessary. Thank you for your patience.
When will it ever work?

I love the WD, never really played D2 so can't compare and this is the highest level I have been with the WD but he summons some pretty awesome minions later on from what i've seen.

Skills can be modified at any time, all it does is incur a cooldown on any skill that gets modified (20 seconds or something?). Definitely shouldn't worry about skill choices, just find the ones you enjoy playing with.

Crafting, didn't get to play with that too much but it seemed pretty straightforward. You just pay gold to unlock levels... unless there is more to it (droppable patterns?).

At least the BNet thread is a hilarious time waster. Them nerds are madder than the hatter.

so exactly what was that open beta stress test weekend for? was Blizzard really caught off guard by how popular D3 is? 8 years from the launch of WoW and they still haven't figured out how to properly manage their resources for game launches
