"For Diablo III, we were aiming to launch by the end of 2011. As we’re announcing globally today, our new target for the game is early 2012." Source
It's a pity that we wont get it this year, but I think I would rather wait for the game to be polished.
I just hope its released closer to the start of Q1 when I have free time, rather than later on when everything starts getting busy again. I had barely any free time to play SC2 when it was released.

I knew it. It was obvious they could not meet the end year deadline. If they could, an announcement would have been made a month or two back. In all honesty though, Blizzard probably had no intention for an end year release(they dont ever release their games in and around late Xmas period as far as I can recall). They just love to tease.
Im still betting early Q2 or late Q1. When the world is a bit `richer` from over end year + early new year and less games are entering the market. Thats how Activision thinks
I just watched some of the footage from beta.. No idea why but I felt kinda indifferent about the gameplay. :/ Maybe I'm past the age where I feel the fun in gaming.. Or maybe it just doesn't feel like diablo to me. Are the maps even randomly generated?.. Of course I speak all this at a glance. I don't really care about graphics like many people in the current gaming generation do, as long as it's not pixels or sprites I'm fine. Gameplay is still the most important to me.
Yes, they are still randomly generated. Dungeons are 100% random, and "overworld" areas and somewhat random, with major towns being in permanent locations. I think it looks great :D

I have to say they've done an amazing job with the minimap then, because it would meant he minimal also has to be dynamically generated, and that from a programming perspective, I'd say is quite a challenge to implement.
Quote from Mozared:
I just got a beta invite guys!
All I need to do is send my battle.net account name and password and they'll let me in!
I have friends who truely believes in those scam-mails. Some guy got the subject into a random conversation we had, like: "Oh, by the way, I got a beta-invite for Diablo III because I am so good at WoW, they told me". I just smiled and nodded - This was months ago now, and he have never spoken of it since.
No its real, I know it looks fake, but I did it, and now my account says I cant access it because blizzard is updating my account! im so excited!11!!one!

Blizzard sent me one of those, too! Apparently, I had to send them my account information IMMEDIATELY or they would ban me. Kinda strange that they sent it in all caps and they spelled everything wrong, but hey, it said "From Blizzard". I'll be the one laughing when I get my beta key.

I must say I love your sense of humour Mozared :D

Yeah me too! Kind of embarassing that Blizzard spelled their own name wrong though. And did you know that they use gmail?
Great to be back and part of the community again!

Anyone else amused at South Korea debating to ban D3 because its Auction House, together with how the game works, equals online gambling?
I sure am :D.
Of course they're real!
Real bullshit... :P
