For whatever reason someone behind the scenes thought reducing the droprates in 3/4 was a good idea to balance it out. When they released the numbers nobody had anything to compare it to, but it became pretty obvious after the fact. I'm not quite sure how they thought that was a good idea at all.

No first time bonus past normal :\ They're supposed to add this in, but it probably won't be until 1.1 which sucks.

I'm not sure I necessarily agree with that. One major benefit of Act 1 is everything is really compact, it's really easy to grab 5 stacks and find a ton of elites afterwards. I'm not sure the extra time needed to farm Act 2 is worth the very slightly better drops.

Seems like Act 1 and Act 3 are the big winners, Act 2 is just very open and random.

Bashiok really needs to be taken off the forums, period. He tried to follow up Ghostcrawler's schtick from his early WoW posting but doesn't quite get it. GC used to troll a little bit, realized it was getting out of hand, and pulled himself out of community interaction for a long time. He's back interacting a lot now with a greatly different attitude, though still lighthearted when appropriate.

Bashiok on the other hand just acts like your typical 12 year old internet denizen. It's pretty obvious how much of a negative effect he's having on the community from the types of posts that surface in every single thread he posts in now. Time for a higher up to pull the plug.

**** post .. you obviously have no friends in the game to see that 60+% of them haven't logged in for days or a week or more.

People worshipped Blizzard like gods and it is funny to watch it crumble.

The bottom line is all the people who quit and got a refund will come crawling back when the expansion comes out, and I doubt many people who claim to have quit really have. People who make daily posts saying they quit on the official boards probably are still playing a ton every day.

The "my experience dictates everybody's experience" mentality is exactly why the official forums are full of garbage.

33 people on my friends list, 2 offline for 4-5 days, 1 offline for 10 days (moving), everybody else has been playing within the last 24 hours.

feels like they ninja nerfed gold drops and regular drops in act 1 inferno. i've been farming the same spot for a week now and after today's patch the gold drops are sucking.. averaging 50-200 gold instead of 500-800 with my gold find equipment. also in 6 runs now i only got 1 rare drop and a full pack of blue. usually i have to sell a ****load of blue to make room for the yellow and i will have a full pack of yellows at the end of 5 runs.

Yeah everyone is quitting and the game is dying! The countless posts in the forums say so! Everyone not playing must be why the game is a laggy mess at busy times.

I'm no Blizzard fanboy but come on (I don't doubt that some of your friends may have quit, I'll guess your friends aren't retarded fanboys).

Well I can't "farm" act 2 yet, so I don't know... I'd imagine farming the Zolton Kulle quest line would be pretty easy (lots of dungeons, compact design). But right now it's not efficient for me to do that.

It is, but the issue is getting the 5 stacks beforehand. If you have a solid MF set, the back to back bosses can be very profitable even with only one 'guaranteed' rare.

Just going straight into the Archives won't help though as there's only 2-3 packs per area, thus you're almost done by the time you get 5 stacks. The only other decent compact area to grab 1-2 stacks is Alcarnus, everything else is wide open.

With Act 1 you have Festering Woods (2 close dungeons + 2-3 packs outside that you'll often run into), Cemetary (3 dungeons 1-3 apiece), Watch Tower (1-5! packs + resplendent), Leoric's Manor (1-2), Cursed Hold (2-3), Halls of Agony 2/3 (1-3 each) + 2 bosses in close proximity.

Basically: Act 2 gives you a higher chance per piece to be better loot. Act 1 gives you a lower chance but 3-4x the loot in the same amount of time.

What about the quests where you need to get his blood from the 2 dungeons, and then you go to the archives?

There is clearly a deep cultural problem in the Diablo 3 team (if not in Blizzard more fully); their employees publicly behave like spoiled children, call their gamers liars on Twitter and in their forums, lie about undocumented game changes (then later admit them when enough anecdotal evidence from players surfaces), and after two full years adding "polish" to a complete game, they STILL don't have launch-date features fully implemented.
I actually have to check back to this thread occasionally to see what the masses are raging about at the moment. In between that I have a lot of fun playing a pretty mindless game.

Possibly, though Desolate Sands is still a pretty big area and the packs in those places are not the best. Sand Pygmies, for example, are obnoxious to fight due to the constant burrowing. You can also get Wasp elite/champs out there which are always annoying even if they're not particularly difficult most of the time.

On the upside, there's a fair number of mini-events that occur out there with treasure chests and if you're a completionist the extra chance to find the Ancient Device would be good. I've seen that thing twice total and had the same result (out of 10 possibilities) pop up both times.

The best is all the kids going on about how D2 was so much more amazing, when some of them were potentially not even born when D2 was released.

Its a blizzard game. It brings out the worst in people. Have a go at the blizzard forum for pretty much any of their games, if you want to shut your brain off.

which is why said users should not be surprised at all of the changes made in D3

I also have to imagine a lot of people playing D3 don't even remember how imbalanced D2 was when it was released, because they were 8-9 at the time. D2 had years of polish on it by the time most of the D3 population probably played it. I'm turning 30 soon, when D2 came out I was 17. Kinda puts that **** into perspective when the average D3 player is probably 18-25.

D3's already most of the way there, just some silly design decisions getting in the way.

EDIT:
Oh for any Barbs with a high Crit rate (30-40% or more), try the Slaughter rune over Insanity if you're not using an Earthquake build. Pretty ridiculous.

I don't have a huge friends list but out of the dozen or so people that were usually online a week or two into release 2 still play.
