Bashiok's tweet: un ora e mezza a disposizione delle domande dei players.

[mirraiidx]

Got any questions about Diablo III? I'll do my best to reply to every tweet over the next hour. No release date/beta key requests. :P

@Bashiok Is there going to be as much incentive to sit around and MF for 14 hours at a time? Or is the end game plan more WoWesque?

@witwix It will be similar to D2, but emphasis is off boss runs and on exploring the world.

@Bashiok Any word when news about runes will be released?

@IamBGriffs We're planning that out. Its in and working. Not too much longer.

@Bashiok @IamBGriffs Does this include the skill system?

@Bargo_Gosu @iambgriffs Skill and rune systems are intrinsically linked.

@Bashiok Would it be possible to get yours truly for an interview for the Shattered Soulstone (Diablo community) podcast?

@nevikjames Hit up pr@blizzard.com for any interview requests.

@Bashiok Yes, why did all of the good classes from D2 not make it to D3?

@Gargleroxlol We didn't want to make Diablo 2.5. We want to do new stuff! They're fun classes, give me a chance.

@Bashiok thats a bummer wanted to ask when the EU beta keys were coming . But a real question, can you play Diablo 3 offline?

@QuriousAlonsus No.

@Bashiok why isnt it out yet? :P (seriously!)

@OMGTASO Still working on it!

@Bashiok Honest question, why did you guys change so much of the game a few weeks ago? Why did Blizz find it necessary?

@mahoumelonball Hopefully the blog and subsequent forum posts explained why? Bottom line is because we believe they'll make a better game.

@Bashiok ¿Is true that your first champion is a barbarian and his name is Chuk Norris? Thanks 4 all BRO!

@DaniRGon Wrong! Female barb named Snusnu.

@Bashiok Is there any bonus to pre-release bonus to pre-ordering the CE?

@darth_caesar I'm not aware of any pre-order bonuses... We usually don't do those.

@Bashiok are you an achievement mob in game? How well are the recent major game changes playing out?

@Strider_3029 Bashiok is a named champion, yes. Prepare your steel and sorcery!

@Bashiok how do i use the Diablo 3 forums ? it says I need a Wow account ? mine is frozen, and I have D2/D2_expansion?

@Mrknify You'll need an active WoW sub, StarCraft II license, or DIII beta license.

@Bashiok Any update on the runes rework?

@TwoSp0ons SOON!

@Bashiok What % will you guys take from real money action house?

@iM_Bennotronica That's a good question, I actually don't know. % is only on cash out though, or commodity/stackable item sales.

@Bashiok Why did you guys remove scrolls of identification? Simplicity sake? Also, why can you change skills anywhere now?

@ReXimus128 We didn't really feel like they added anything, except to take away inventory space.

@Bashiok I have a question about friends and chat in D3. Is it possible to add someone to a friends list? Also, is there a global chat?

@Varastus21 Yes there's multiple different types of friends lists. Global chat like you want to spam all your friends? no.

@Bashiok any plans for any guild/clan features?

@Millerjoeblue We'd love to offer some kind of support for social groups, but it's on a wish list at the moment.

@Bashiok Similar to WoW and SC2 will Diablo III have real ID compatibility. (Can i chat from WoW witha friend on Diablo III.) If not when!

@Sarfazar You can!

@Bashiok What is your personal favorite class in D3?

@koitenbatsu I have no idea any more... Right now I'm seriously considering leading with a witch doctor.

@Bashiok is the + attack on weps/gear a bug or is it in the poll of random affixes

@ZeroO_c Sounds like a bug...

@Bashiok will xpacs increase level caps or just new content/items? Thanks for the outreach!

@Chiefey68 We're still just working on the game, but our philosophy is that levels should match the content. If that answers your question.

@Bashiok One of the reason why diablo 2 was such a succes was that it was getting better over the years, will diablo 3 follow that patern?

@SimonTupper We're fully designing and planning for Diablo III to be supported long into the future.

@Bashiok any idea when more beta invites will go out?

@Efren1776 We don't really plan it out like that, it's more a symptom of seeing how many people are playing and seeing if need more.

@bashiok Any plans for contests for beta keys for people outside the states? (Latinamerica)

@andrespdr Yup, but I'll let them tell you about it.

@Bashiok will we be seeing any runestones or gems in beta?

@OldIronBlood Extremely unlikely. The point of the beta is to test the service, patcher, launcher, and hardware compatibility.

@Bashiok In the game guide some weapons have a range of values for min and max dmg (2-3)-(4-5) dmg for ex. Can the values be non-integers?

@hashstep Nah, whole numbers is sexier.

@Bashiok could you elaborate a bit mor on why exactly blizzard thinks that a general open chat channel like inn D2 or SC1 is a bad idea?

@CaptRaven The good is minuscule compared to the bad, and we have to actually support these things...

@Bashiok How does crafting work?

@Doriide It's a bit complex to describe in 140 characters. You already read the artisan section on the website?

@Bashiok My wife wants to know how much sleep everyone at Blizzard is averaging trying to get this game out to demanding people like me...

@jeremysnow2 Hah! It's a lot of long hours and weekend work days, and has been for a while... but we have fun.

@Bashiok Can I have your autograph?

@ACLDox Sure. -bashiok

@Bashiok Kidding aside, thanks for everything! Could you tell us how the legendary weapons are coming along and if they will be in the beta?

@Regardless_ Quite well. I don't think we drop any more until later in Act 1. Probably not.

@Bashiok Will you do a AMA on reddit.com/r/diablo sometime?

@Sathion I don't know. Maybe!

@Ed2xuard Frequency doesn't matter as much as how they scale with health pools, skills, and passives. You'll die a lot, don't worry.

@Bashiok as somone who hasn't played the first 2 will it be easy to understand the story of this one?

@Efren1776 No matter what it's going to be a fun story. If you've played the others you'll get something extra, if not, you'll seek it out.

@Bashiok Does the current list of items on the D3 website give all the items we can expect to see on release? Are there going to be more?

@eclittlejohn No, no, no, the website has very few items. We'll update it when we get close to release.

@Bashiok How close to the date of release should we expect the Diablo III, beta to run?

@Sarfazar That's a good question. I don't think we exactly know. Pretty close.

@Bashiok Do you guys plan to have expansion for Diablo 3 still? if so would it be a class/content or just conten. Ect.

@lReesesCupl We think it makes sense, but we're focusing on releasing the game first.

@Bashiok Is there going to be a pre-release download, so people can start playing as soon as servers go up? Including ppl on annual pass

@pliers1 We plan to have a digital download people can grab so they're ready to go right at midnight.

@Bashiok Aside from being able to slow down to enjoy the lore, are there any drawbacks (in regards to the story) to playing solo vs co-op?

@digitahlemotion We hope not, we've worked really hard to try to ensure co-op is nothing but bonuses and awesomeness.

@Bashiok is the retail release of the game the entirety of the content we'll see for a while or will there be content patches ala WoW? #QnA

@Procrastajason Well, WoW is a subscription game. We'll have patches. New items, probably. New zones or bosses? Probably not.

@Bashiok With you taking out the scrolls do you have any plans to put them back in maybe as like purchasable pet like in WoW maybe?

@WilliamCairns1 We didn't remove them so we could charge people for them later, if that's your question.

@Bashiok Will there be official midnight launch events globally? (and if so, could you make it to London's?)

@SamuEllmer We tend to have midnight launch events, no announcements until we know when the game will launch
.

@Bashiok do I need to pay any tax on my monthly paypal earnings from the sale of in game items? Any other options than paypal?

@Ryallcowling I believe that's between you and the IRS? PayPal is what we're focusing on for NA and some other regions.

@bashiok ie 2.3 - 4.5 dmg even though in game it shows a rounded value? Getting strange values for what dps should be compared to displayed.

@hashstep Very possible, but it's not going to matter for long. You won't be doing single or even double digit damage for long.

@Bashiok will the colorblind mode be implemented during beta?

@Wasted_Panda Do we need one? Would appreciate feedback in a forum thread if there's specific issues.

@Bashiok I like the changes to skillswap with cooldown BUT why is there a cooldown when you are in town? #AMA

@MrPaNtsONhEaD It's a rough first implementation. It was wrangled in very shortly before the patch went out.

@Bashiok in a party, if people are skipping loot barrels and side rooms, do you lose xp for staying back and exploring?

@leftupseven You need to be within range (screen and a half or so) to be counted for drops or experience.

@Bashiok Is there going to be a monster in the game named Bashiok? Also will Rakanishu and Bishbosh be returning?

@EldacarJS Yes. Well... I don't know. Those guys are dead...

@Bashiok Why the massive disparities in starting armor for some of the classes for male/female? EX: Sorcerer/ess

@verylemonade Likely one was revised and the other wasn't. (bug) A bug report or other written feedback would help.

@Bashiok with pets been taken out of the game is there any plans of the use of the models or will they just return to wild life in game?

@Br0ckHamill I believe they'll be freeze-dried until later.

@Bashiok Is it possible you can make the CE wings dyeable? I know they're an inventory item. It would just be cool!!!

@EmperorDoomwolf No, they're the single amazingly cool color they already are.

@Bashiok How many times have you played through the campaign?

@Kennigit From start to finish with one character? :X never...

@Bashiok what's the most OP class to roll?

@andrew_sheldonn Hopefully they all feel OP. Balance!

@Bashiok Do you recommend I go back and play the first two games (+expansion), or does Diablo 3's story stand well enough on its own?

@LadyFoxette I think you can find some good story recaps (if anyone has link pls share) that it'd be pretty easy to catch yourself up.

@Bashiok Is a melee Wizard still viable with the new stat system etc? Was very interested to try that ^_^

@Darkcoro Absolutely.

@Bashiok Max players per game. 4 or 8?

@dethbox 4.

@Bashiok Is it possible we will see a return of the Amulet feature in an expansion?

@arkeus Anything is possible. That kind of secondary item-based stat augmentation is real cool though. Perfect for later on.

@Bashiok How big is the game in comparison to D2?

@SnailCraft I dont know. Around the same I suspect.

@Bashiok Do you get to influence the game design at all outside of being the CM? If so, what did you help with?

@Regardless_ I complain all the time but I'm usually wrong. All the good stuff comes from the community.

@Bashiok Can paypal unsupported countries use the rmah ? Is blizzard usiing any other web-based payment besides paypal ?

@Sn0wcatcher I believe we'll be providing more info about regional options once they're ready. To be honest I don't know specifics.

@Bashiok If Diablo got a puppy, what breed would it be? #AMA

@chadwingerd hellhound? There's some lame Popsicle stick joke there somewhere, but I can't find it.

@Bashiok forum feedback still says DH feels less powerful than other classes; perception or real thing? any plans?

@mikesacco Overall we agree. Next patch (?) there will be a number of class changes.

@Bashiok Is it possible to post gold/real money on the auction house to be bought with real money/gold respectively

@Sarfazar You can put up gold to be bought with currency, yes.

@Bashiok any word on a new Blizzcast?

@jaredgaut The delay kinda threw us off. We'll get back on track...

@Bashiok when does beta testing end?

@Mikeregan7 sometime before release.

@Bashiok Are the Pre-Orders for Diablo 3 CE by Walmart, Gamestop, etc legit?

@digitahlemotion I would assume so. I'm not sure how those work, I'd guess they have to work off a unit estimate?

@Bashiok Any ETA on news about the EU beta? Will the EU beta be the final phase/part of testing? #diablo3

@AlexVanDijkNews Not yet. No

@Bashiok if Diablo, Mephisto and Baal were in a room... and their was 3 Apples... how many would each get?

@jeremysnow2 Diablo would get all three. One for each mouth.

@Bashiok did you ever seriously discuss about broadcasting a super bowl commercial?

@kultbot I doubt it.

@Bashiok How much earlier will people get to pre-order/pre-load the game direct from the Blizzard site to release?

@hanwei86 I'm not sure, Cataclysm seemed to go well. Probably something like that.

@Bashiok Pre-order CE online when it becomes available in the UK, or wait for midnight launch?

@SamuEllmer If you want a CE I think you better have pre-ordered back when we announced it.

@Bashiok hardcore requires a softcore play through correct? #AMA

@HCXAnth Correct.

@Bashiok Do you ever see the D3 team abandoning the PvE balance always trumps PvP balance Philosophy? (I hope the answer is no)

@danielwhitcomb I don't know. Hard to speak in absolutes.

@Bashiok Will the dyecolor stay on a item when we sell them on RMAH or GAH and if so will ther be any indicator that its dyed with a color

@MrPaNtsONhEaD Good question. I believe it stays, I don't believe it's indicated.

@Bashiok Will we see the new skill system in Beta, or will it likely not appear till release?

@Bargo_Gosu It will appear in beta.

@Bashiok The current chat sound is annoying/out of place, Can you guys bring back D2 "chk!" Sound instead of the "DING!"?

@EmperorDoomwolf I can ask.

@Bashiok How exactly does the Archon ability change the spells the Wizard cast?

@griftaru You're given a specific set of new skills you can only use while in Archon.

@Bashiok Do you have plans on later expanding the 4 player cap? 4 seems low. I mean, there ARE 5 classes...

@Muse13 No plans.

@Bashiok do you guys make jokes about "soon" internally as much as the community does or is it a taboo topic at blizzard.

@D3wizard It's not taboo, but kind of old so not really funny either.

[mirraiidx]

@Bashiok Can we expect another front page "post" (Like the Jay Wilson one) regarding the rest of the changes?

@Bargo_Gosu I would.

@Bashiok approx. what would you rate your current place in development -- 1 is not near complete, 10 is complete.

@MichaelACullum Haha. No!

@Bashiok Will there be higher texture and / or graphics settings closer to release? For example, Starcraft 2 has an ultra mode.

@Distinguished86 No what we have is what we have. We could add an Ultra setting if you'd like, but it wouldn't be any different.

@Bashiok Can you address the framerate issues that many of us are experiencing in the Beta? I.E.Stuttering and mass slowdowns during killing

@Bargo_Gosu From what I've seen people have been finding some workarounds. (check tech forums) But we're aware of it.

@Bashiok As a beta member, is there any other content we will be testing, runes/jeweler etc?

@god7399 Negatory. There will be some skill and class changes, items, but you'll be level 13 until the game releases
.

@Bashiok love the halls of the dead feature. Screenshots soon?

@HCXAnth That was a wish list feature we mentioned at BlizzCon right? Don't know if it'll make it. It's on the list.

@RustyTristane Hrm like you get something for playing both? Sounds cool, not that I know of aside from the CE bonus.

@Bashiok #AMA what were the core changes that pushed the release back? I never heard what they were

@Timmythevicious Check diablo3.com but we're still just not done with the game.

@Bashiok Is there a voice chat feature built into D3, or are outside sources required?

@guyver009 There is no built in voice chat, at least not for ship. If we try voice chat in another game we want to make sure its worth using

Ok, I think I've been answering and spamming for a solid hour and a half. Hope I got to yours or one like it. Goodnight everyone!
