I have access to Diablo III Beta Techinal (Windows) and Techinal (Mac), and about all of the forums for Diablo III allow to create a thread or reply, But in the summary it doesn't show Diablo 3 (Beta) to download the client, I have purcahsed Diablo III digital pre-released so when it launches May 15th I will be ready to play it, don't know if it his anything to do with available to post topic's on diablo III forums, I just wondering if I am in the Diablo III Beta if it takes time to show the Diablo III Beta (Client) download in the summary, Anyone have any idea's if I am in the Beta or not, Thanks :D

Go to your battle.net account page and it will show up under Diablo 3.

they send an e-mail if your in the beta if you havent gotten an e-mail stating your in the beta then you are not in.

I've gotten beta invites on two separate accounts. One got an email, the other didn't. (Checked the junk folder and everything.) It just showed up on the account page. When they did the mass invites awhile back there were a couple threads on fansite forums about that happening to other people as well.

Eurogamer has 1000 beta keys going to members who visit the page. Just got mine and off to download the client.

:(

Update: Sorry, too slow! Or rather, 1000 other people were too quick. They all went in around 20 minutes.

Guess I am just not meant to get in lol.

I've never played any of the Diabo series so I've been wanting to test Diablo 3. Though at this rate I won't be able to. :(

I played the first one, and the first d2 didn't play the expansion though. Needles to say, not getting into this beta prepared me for not getting into gw2 lol

Got my 1st proper play though and I enjoyed it immensely. Im just about lvl9 now and its starting to kick into gear a bit. Skills system I thought was a bit akward at 1st but im getting used to it now.

Tho its now got me properly intrigued as to how Torchlight 2 will stack up against it.

Am going to play it through and then give a full and honest review I think. Still learning and need to try a few classes out.

Yeh its a lot of fun. The story and wee bits shine through. Im just after venturing down in the crypts and taking on a few interesting fellows. They`ve got some nice mechanics in place to try and spur you along. The rooms involving pillars and mass undead spawns are pretty fun. 110kills in one session I got through that and a big chunk of xp. The Demon Hunter is a nice play aswell, ranged and full of slowing effects etc. There aoe slow effect rocks! But there stealth is crap imho, so far. Cant beat setting up an aoe slow, then holding down right mouse and firing hundreds of arrows in barrage at the advancing horde.

Theres the odd rough edge, but not much. The wells when clicked on can be a bit funny about actually transporting you. This is my 1st Diablo game, so like I said still learning a lot.

I wont ruin the story as its pretty decent and the quests have a nice amount of voice acting in them, not to mention the various bits of lore you pick up along the way are all voiced aswell. Good game so far and Id pick it up in a heart beat, and thats without having played the co-op mode. Tho I do now have the Templar Warrior following me about and generally being a bit of a tard. I dear say he,ll get better/useful as it progresses but other than as a basic tank at moment hes just excess baggage.

This vs TL2 tho is going to be very interesting as TL2 looks like Wow in many ways, but Diablo doesnt. Then theres the issue of updating and adding new content. Will Blizzard add to this like they have with Wow or just leave it be? Will TL2 follow suit if Blizzard update? etc etc. Should be a good year for these top down dungeon crawlers. If thats what this game is :p

      It saddens me when cars are such dull colours now. Mine is bright metallic blue and I absolutely adore it for standing out in contrast to that depressing backdrop of traffic.

      I really don't like these rounded corners and huge borders in the viewport. They just waste space without anything in return.
