My friend got the regular retail version, came with 1 guest pass and 1 guest wow pass. Another friend of mine got the CE, and it came with 3 diablo 3 guest passes, and no wow passes. I'll see if i can get a pass or 2 from one of them for some of yall.

I'd love a guest pass to try it before I decide if I want to buy it or not.

And I believe Loc... or maybe he got one already it seems...

If this list has changed, let me know. But can't confirm that I will get any from them. But they don't have any other friends I know of that would need them.

ATT is to blame for the Diablo3 problems... they picked the worst backbone provider/hosting provider they could to partner with for this... They should have gone with level3 they are solid and awesome. They prolly fell for a smooth salesmen's promise of having lower cost per util. and thought it would be cheaper then L3 so they went with it... only it will end up costing them 4x as much as L3 and have lower capacity. ATT notes for hosting companies they can change the TOS at any time and you are agreed to using them for 2 year minimum contract duration. In order to get lower rates you must agree to changes that could screw you over in the end big time. This is another reason any reputable datacenters do not use them. They are a joke. Good IP backbones: level 3 twtelcom abovenet verizon xo cogent HE zayo soooo many others they could have chosen that would give them outstanding service and better value and they choose the worst possible one.... yucckkkk.... bliz really doesn't know what they're doing... I'm partnered with InetU hosting (very high end enterprise grade provider with NO NETWORK DOWNTIME)(they host pokemon.com, lands of america, CREDO action group, and Luby's websites as well as tons of others) They use level3, Abovenet, and Verizon and they do really really good with those 3. If they would have went with InetU hosting then they would have not had any of these problems at all... There are so many better hosting providers out there they could have chosen and they chose ATT of all places!!!! arrrg! well blizzard enjoy it while it lasts!!

LOL Cogent good? AT&T arent too bad tbh but Cogent is cheapest of the cheap and its reflected in their poor service

Yeah I got one from a friend yesterday :) Thanks for the thought though!

Also mind if I add you to my friends list now, even though I don't have the full game yet?

Definitely. Always looking for more to play the game with. Let me know what char you plan on making for when you get the game, and I'll keep an eye on loot that you could use.

Sweet. I'm totally going with my Witch Doctor and Demon Hunter toons once I get the full game in early June :D

Am I the only one who thinks this game has horrible pathing. You'd think blizzard didn't have any experience making rpg and rts games where pathing is important. If you're behind a chair or something, and click anywhere on the other side of it, or even in the side of the chair, the game can't figure out how to walk around it.

I think it's worse than the original even, and that was pretty bad.

I agree. I was like 2 feet away from some stairs, with another set of stairs on the opposite side of the room which connect both down to a lower area. I click on the lower area, and instead of running the shortest path, down the stairs 2 feet away. My character does the longest path, taking the stairs on the other side. The path finding in this game is very horrible for what we should expect from Blizzard.

Yay! My friend who gave me the guest pass is buying me the game! (He's saved my ass countless times, truly a great friend. Hopefully one day I can help him out or something)

Only thing is, I gotta wait until the 22nd to get it from Amazon, since he couldn't find a way to gift a copy.

He wasn't going to buy it until his next pay day, but I've gone all addicted already and he was trying to calm me down I guess :p

didn't yas realise theres digital copys?

Yes but you can't gift copies of the game (at least not at this time, and if you can, neither one of us could find a way to do it currently). While he could have logged into my Battle.net account and bought the game that way (he was going to do that actually, Amazon already processed the order though and couldn't be canceled anymore) he has reservations about doing things like that also.

Either way, I'll have the game in 3-7 days. Probably on Saturday :) I'm just decking out my guys right now. Started up a Barbarian and by the time I beat the you know what at the end of the SE gameplay, I had 4 rare drops already, and my friend has like 2 or 3 others for my Demon Hunter. So I'll be having some fun I think.

Thanks for the reply. Actually I believe I've asked for a guest pass before them (back on page 68):

http://www.neowin.ne...#entry594867589

Yeah, I'll PM you a code in just a minute.

Any chance you got one more?

-deleted-

Does anyone have a guest pass OTHER than those that have already sent their out?

I'm in the middle of getting my upgraded build together, and the issue is lack of TIME (not money), as a copy of D3 is one of the items I'll be snagging to run on the upgraded hardware.

Respond via PM, please (of course)

So ya trying to finish the game off, before vacation ends tomorrow at noon. Currently on first boss of Act III, when the servers were brought down twice (or maybe once?). Just jumping in random public games and making progress. I'm playing my Barb and completely destroying. I've only had 2 real good public games, one was myself and DH, and followed by that a game of myself, and 2 wizards.

So if anyone is on Act III add me so we finish this game!

    • Macbook Air is an appealing option, as are plethora of Windows devices with various different CPU's
    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
    • Wow, 50% increase for the base model. That's steep!
    • A group made up of dozens of cybersecurity experts, including several well-known veterans of the industry, published an open letter to the U.S. government asking it to lift the export control order on Anthropic’s Fable and Mythos models. According to the open letter, “this action has taken the best models away from [cybersecurity] defenders” who now can’t use the models to find vulnerabilities and make their software and products more secure. “To pull the best capabilities away from defenders without a good reason when our adversaries are rapidly advancing is dangerous,” read the letter. On Friday, the U.S. government ordered Anthropic to limit the export of Fable and Mythos, citing national security concerns, without explaining the specific reasons behind the order, according to Anthropic. In response, the company suspended access to the models to all users worldwide.     https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/15/cybersecurity-vets-protest-dangerous-us-government-ban-on-anthropics-most-powerful-models/
