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

Weird, I did that last night but when the download finished I was not able to actually install it. It stated that Blizzard had not enabled that ability yet. I figured that I wouldn't be able to do the actual install until Tuesday. Seems weird...

It did download all of it so it is there but it just won't let me install the game.

It should work now.. they unlocked the ability 3 hours ago.

I had some error with Tome2.MPQE or whatever it is... Apparently the blizzard downloader didnt download all the files.

Mine was Tome3... If you re-run the downloader it will finish/fix everything. You have to make sure you point it at your download folder, not the folder that the installer is downloaded to.

(i.e.: If your installer is in "/Users/Name/Downloads/Diablo-III-8370-enUS-Installer" then tell it to download to "/Users/Name/Downloads".)

I'm totally p'eed off at the moment, 2 copies have been shipped to me and none have arrived, both were sent last Thursday, so should have been here by now :( I wish Game in the uk had stayed dead as at least I would have had my copy by now from ShopTo, everyone I know who ordered from them got their copies Saturday or Today :( Whereas I who ordered mine 3 years ago from game have had nothing, but charged twice due to their demise and buyout with two copies sent :(

I did that, it decided to download all 7.60GB again :(

I'm on the east coast, so servers won't be live for me until 3AM...booooo.

Maybe I should go to bed early and wake up a few hours early before work...

This is exactly my plan. Go to sleep early (9:30, 10:00), get up around 5. Play till 8 when I need to get ready for work.

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
