if you bought it digitally from blizzard then its already activated on your account just login and play when the servers go live.

D3 was auto-added and activated on my account. If you digitally purchased it should be that way for you too.

[Piggy]

Thanks guys, yeah I bought it straight from Blizzard. All seems ok, just b.net is down. :D

Has anyone heard when the servers go live? At midnight (US)? Kind of dumb that there's no Midnight release around my area... *Sad Panda*

Fully installed and ready to go. WHY ISN'T IT TOMORROW YET!?

They don't email product keys ever. if you pre-ordered the game from Blizzard they will just tag it on your account at Midnight (or whenever it is for your time zone) and you can login.

Just a heads up, you can actually watch cinematics for act 1 at the main menu. There are one for every character type.

Midnight PST for the US

Site says PDT (so be 3AM for eastern Canada).

I noticed that too. I SOOO want to watch them, but I'm trying to make myself wait for when I'm actually playing..."trying" is the key word. I feel my will power slowly draining.

I could not have picked a better week to randomly take off work. Hope I like this one as much as Diablo 2. Never got to play the beta or anything.

Aussies shafted again, is there anywhere worse to be a gamer?

http://www.theverge.com/gaming/2012/5/13/3018593/game-australia-goes-into-administration

UPDATE at 4:00pm: GAME Australia texted customers today informing them that they will not be stocking Diablo III and anyone who pre-ordered the game will not receive a refund. While some GAME customers have told Polygon that they have been assured by GAME staff that they will receive their pre-orders and select GAME retailers managed to receive stock, the official word from GAME Australia came in a text message that Kotaku Australia obtained, which reads:

"Due to the appointment of an administrator to our business this morning, it is with regret that I inform you all that our stores will not be receiving any stock of diablo 3 (sic). Because of this, we regrettably will be unable to fulfill any pre-orders. Also, we will be unable to refund any deposits paid towards a pre-order of diablo 3. If you need any more info, please email [email protected]"

All installed. Now I play the waiting game...

Smells like a lawsuit for services not rendered and refunds not given.

where do you go to pre install?

[mad_onion]

So the Diablo 3 Starter Edition has been announced, for the first 30 days people need a guest pass to access it though.

If anyone bought the boxed copy would they consider giving me their guest pass when they get theirs in the post, thanks.

where do you go to pre install?

1. Go to us.battle.net

2. Login and under summary should be Diablo III

3. Click that, then to the side is a bunch of blue links, the bottom on is "Pre-download Game Client"

4. Click that
