Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

I dunno... I logged in and had a good time.

[–]Blackmar 2 points3 points ago

same here and i was worried from reading all the posts about noone being able to log in :D

[–]fenomenom 1 point2 points ago

I was gonna say this, but you already did.

[–]Bear_King 5 points6 points ago

Servers are not down. This is what I did:

  1. Type in your account name
  2. Type in your password
  3. Hit enter twice really fast
  4. Repeat steps 2-3 until you are logged in

If you get an error where your account is not authorized to play Diablo 3, sign up for another free account (WHAT?!) and try again.

I played for two hours earlier game is awesome!

I read on their twitter that you can just change your password and it will fix the issue. Tried and it worked for me.

HAHA ITS FUNNY BECAUSE THE SERVERS ARE DOWN HAHHHHHAAAAA

[–]capbrune 1 point2 points ago

Logging in? I'm not concerned about that! The weekend will be over by the time it's done downloading :(

[–]NeutralStar 0 points1 point ago

I downloaded mine during work. Came home and got in first try around 7pm CST.

[–]thetasigma1355 0 points1 point ago

Same here. zero problem. Got in instantly at around 6:30 CST

[–]mahacctissoawsum 0 points1 point ago

I only discovered that there was a D3 open beta a moment ago when you guys started bitching about logging in. I was like waaaaitt.....there's a D3 open beta?!? I'm 50% of the way to playable.......I think I'll get on by the end of today!

[–]looncat[!] 1 point2 points ago

Holy Shit! Thats the first time I've ever noticed the alien in the background.

[–]NazzerDawk 1 point2 points ago

I'm not big on this attitude towards popular subjects usually, but the points have all been pretty much made now guys. The Beta is hard to get into. The title screen is a 9/10. Whatever.

[–]MotionBlue 2 points3 points ago

It will only get worse. 4/20 plus Diablo 3? Time to avoid the internet.

[–]ltredshirt 0 points1 point ago

I am not in the beta but this was funny and worth the click :-)

[–]Agavi 0 points1 point ago

I got told servers were busy and immediately tried again. Got in. Had a great time... Just wish the harder difficulties were available because it was piss easy.

[–]thetasigma1355 0 points1 point ago

I mean... it's an open beta... I wish the entire game was available but that's not how these things work.

[–]Agavi 0 points1 point ago

Yeah I know. Be nice to taste test the harder modes before I buy it though.

[–]Neoflare 0 points1 point ago

I couldn't get in earlier when the open beta was first rolled out. Tried again 4 or 5 hours later and had no trouble.

[–]Kill-those-higs 0 points1 point ago

You see, he should have pizzad instead of french fry. When you french fry instead of pizza, your gonna have a bad time.

[–]plutPWNium 0 points1 point ago

I had no problem at all(I just logged on like an hour ago).

[–]jehe -1 points0 points ago

Ive had the open beta for a month or so. sucks for you reddit.
