Smalltalk fra Force:

Diablo 3 Beta Ends May 1st

Der har idag været lidt rygter omkring nyt contet folk har "hacked" sig igennem via diverse bugs.

Længere forklaring, men her er lidt tekst:

"This is definitely not a fake. You need to find someone who has the waypoints and join his game. You will now have those waypoints too. It’s important that you never change the current quest you’re on in the main menu or you will lose the waypoints.

Two areas are populated with tough monsters, different affixes like vortex, molten, and Jailer. Jailer is really cool. It disabled all movement for up to 3 seconds and you can’t do ****. The art is beautiful and there are some new events. One where you help a ghost woman lay her family to rest by killing them. they spawn as 3 elites. another one is clicking a tombstone and waves of enemies come at you, but that one doesn’t offer a reward.

there is a third area called the drowned temple but you can’t do much there."

and the second one:

"As promised, here is an album of a few of the screen shots i’ve taken.

The rings and amulet I have drop in the Crypt Of Decay, a random dungeon in the fields of misery. This Crypt has the new event I was talking about. I don’t know the method people used to actually get the WP’s, I only received them from someone else.

It’s a really cool glimpse into just how awesome this game is going to be. You are all in for a treat.

Edit: Flux, feel free to use these screen shots. Contact me on here if you want screen shots of anything else, or any other information. I will NOT be sharing waypoints at this time. It is unclear if people will be banned for this."

Tilsyneladende kan man løbe ind til "the defiler crypts" stedet, når man kommer ind af porten og får WP unplugger man sit netstik, og løber op til venstre. Der er en gate der normalt er lukket, som så pludselig er åben. Tricket er så vist at løbe igennem, og plugge stikket i. Jeg har ikke kunne få det til at fungere, jeg bliver altid teleportet tilbage til WP hvor jeg tog mit stik, men andre har åbenbart fået det til at virke.


Spændende at se hvad blizzard gør ved det.

Edit:

Flere artikler om det:

Edit2:

Det er åbenbart ikke helt nyt, det synes jeg ellers det virkede som om.
Her er en der har gjort det for længe siden, men åbenbart ikke fået nogen views på det på youtube ihvertfald

Diablo 3 Beta Fields of Misery, Drowned Temple and Festering Woods

Jeg har nu spillet betaen igennem over 10 gange, har 4 mænd som er lvl 13 og det kører bare.

Nu er det så blevet kedeligt, fordi det er så pisse nem.

Derfor prøvede jeg at få en kammerat til at lave et spil hvor han fik questen til defilers crypt

Jeg lavede så en ny mand, en barb som jeg ikke havde prøvet endnu. Så joinede jeg hans spil som lvl 1, og så smuttede han ud af spillet.

Derefter fik jeg ellers kamp til stregen da jeg som lvl 1 gik igennem defilers crypt fordi jeg skulle fører hans quest videre og endte nede ved Mr. king som lvl 5 eller 6.

Det gav fanme sved på panden! Prøv det, det gør beta'en meget mere sjov Jeg ved ikk om der lige er andre muligheder hvorpå man kan få lov at starte på en quest længere inde i spillet som lvl 1, men det her var ihvertfald min ide.

Her får man lov at bruge potions og måske få en fornemmelse af hvordan nightmare måske vil føles lidt som.


Håber i kan bruge det til at få flere timer ud af betaen

ps. Vil lige sige som en bonus at det betaler sig at game betaen igennem mange gange og explore super meget. Jeg har faktisk oplevet nye steder og nye ting hver eneste gang jeg har spillet en mand til lvl 13 (at gennemfører 2½ gang)
