I don't think there's going to be either of those two games any time soon. The Starcraft universe is currently being used for Starcraft Ghost and I recall reading somewhere that the division of Blizzard that made Diablo and Diablo 2 broke away from Blizzard and are doing their own thing now.
As for Diablo 2, I haven't played that game in a while because I seem to have lost my CD. Even if I remembered my characters, they'd have been deleted by now anyway so there's no point.
I just started playing D2 again, I've currently got a lvl12 Barb called ''Brummington'', so if you see me about, feel free to give me stuff, because I suck and haven't played for ages.

man, that game sucked so many hours away, i would get like 3 guys up in the 80's, usually one in the 90's, then get bored and give everything away, then several months do it again.
I was good at that game. On USWest non-ladder I have a great barb named JuggerKnot. My account is Slayer420, message me sometime if you see me on.

Diablo 2 sucks! Now ... X-Pack is awesome! I haven't played in ages, highest I ever got was a level 81 Paladin that was immune to most things, accept he was a little weak when it came to poisonous gases. :)
D2 sucks.
Everything is hacked.
It's ridiculously easy to get the best uniques in the game. People just give away SOJs since they're so massively duped.
Back in the day it was the best game, though.

Man...Iv'e played Diablo D2 and expansion for along time... Iv'e played D when i was eight and now im like 12 and i play D2 sometimes.

Yeah D2 is a good game, good RPG neway. All lad chars too...
D3 isnt comming out, well if so netime soon. There we're plans for one tho way back when... *drifting off into a clear, vivid memory of the good times when D2 was nothin' but hacks...smiles while a tear trickles down face*

hacks are bad on open b-net, on closed there not so bad tho, i used to play it... occasionly i have the erge to play it.. like right now... but usually i dont give into it
Its fun makeing new characters and owning in pvp, its not fun going on MF runs.
I used to have all the good stuff for pvp, but all deleted now, and ill never do mf runs again, so if i was to play it would just be to lvl and make a character.

The guys that made the original Diablo, Diablo 2, Starcraft, Warcraft all broke off of Blizzard and made their own company named Flag Ship Studios. Their first release is set to come out soon as a MMORPG named Guild Wars. ( its going to kick WoW's *** and its free to play online as well)
As for Diablo 2, it is infested with bots, hacks, dupes and various glitches, and the worst part about it Blizzard does not care about it any more. They do not work on it to fix these things, they are to worried about games that will actually bring money to them.
I played Diablo 2 for 3-4 years, great game and all, but a waste of time as of late and the 1.9 patch. Very addictive, its like crack, and need to feed your addiction with a higher dose of it every day.
When I quit I had mules full of all the runewords from the new ladder season and such, but they all expired because I forgot about them.
I vow never to go back to that game ever again.

11-16-2004, 12:51 PM
i hardly ever playe online so the highest level i ever got to was about 32 when i beat the game the first time. then i beat it again at 28. that would be a cool challange to see who could beat it at the lowest level.
i really hope they do another diablo, despit the break away. i haven't seena any other games like it. they said sacred was just as good but that games pisses me off too much.
MyNameIsPhil
11-16-2004, 03:04 PM
well really the point isnt to beat it. that is impossibly easy. If you really want to beat the game try playing alone and beating it on hell. otherwise, its just fun leveling up.

heres a build for a pure zon v zon bowa speeder that i made.
you can't afford these items, sorry in advance
DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A HIGHLY SPECIALIZED BUILD THAT REQUIRES A FAIR AMOUNT OF SKILL TO USE EFFECTIVELY. IT DOES NOT "PWN ALL T3H NOOBZ" IN YOUR PUBBY FFA ALL-CLASS DUELS SIMPLY BY EBAYING GEAR AND SPAMMING ARROWS RANDUMBLY IN THE BLOOD MOOR. DO NOT COME CRYING TO ME IF YOU EBAY THIS STUFF FOR OVER A GRAND, THEN GET YOUR *** HANDED TO YOU BY DESYNCING V/T PALADINS AND ENIG-WIND DRUIDS.
Your bow: a 2x 40-15 ias'd Cruel Matriarchal Bow of Amplify Damage
Amulet: Highlords Wrath.
Ring1: 250/20 Raven Frost. No substitutions here kiddies.
Ring2: High str rare or craft with some leech and AR. dex or life/mana would be good here too. The leech on this ring will aid you in "tracking" with multi-shot, letting you know when you hit by showing the leech "swirly" on your character.
Gloves: Hitpower craft gloves. +2 passive/kbk/20% ias are a must. (Hitpower craft guarantees Knockback)
Stack: 1 Annihilus and 39 3/20/5% runners. Resistance is nearly worthless in zvz, provided you can run faster than a CS zon. This build out-runs multi-shot, strafe, and guided arrow easily.
Helm: Artisans of Mammoth helm 120-45 ias.
Armor: Light-type Jewelers of Whale 160-60 ias.
Belt: Blood Craft with 10% ds, FHR, str and life (v1.09 craft GL finding one -.-" ) or perfect vita/replenish verdungo for a life boost... possibly tgods if you prefer the extra lit absorb (lol?) iso 20 vita from 'dungo. the DR factor is irrelevent with the amount of life you have. Other possibilities incluse Nosferatu's Coil, for slows target, or Mavina's Tenet, for 20% fast r/w.
Boots: Marrowwalk. Why? Bone Prison and Lifetap charges. 20 r/w.. high dual stat... 'nuff said.
On your switch:
cta/lidless pre-buff for battle orders etc. before you duel, then go to the stash and switch-up to low requirement "Fury" runeword weapon (i recommend a flail) and the Whitstans Guard shield low reqs for high blocking. again, we're saving stats and DR is a non-issue, so no SS).
Stat and skill placement:
shouldn't need more than 9x-11x STR
dump the rest into DEX
no VIT
no ENG
Javelin and Spear Tree:
no points allotted here
Passive and Magic Tree:
heavy investment here
1 Inner Sight
1 Slow Missile
1 Decoy
1 Valkyrie
1Critical Strike ( ??! any more points would be redundant with this build)
13 Penetrate (attack rating for multi shot)
20 Dodge
20 Evade
20 Avoid
Bow Skill Tree:
medium investment here
1 Magic Arrow
1 Cold Arrow
10 Multi-Shot
20 Guided Arrow
How to zvz with this build basic tutorial:
Track with multi, use corners to aim ga. Keep in mind that GA travels nearly 3 screens before it craps out. You can hit your opponent with IGA, if you know how to lead and aim.
Speaking of multi, thats why we're using the ar charms instead of poison. Them multi arrows are far more likely to pass the opponent, but it DOES require an AR. Now shooting at 7 FPA with this bow, you'll score a hellofa lot more hits with higher AR, meaning you're more likely to trigger the Amp curse (from your CMat of Amp ^^ ). When you can get a volley of Guided Arrows off, IMMEDIATELY swith to the
"Fury"/WG combo to ensure ALL hits checked for DS will roll it.
KEY: Multi triggers amp, GA hits DS+Amp Every time. Lifetap charges can get you out of a bad situation, too...
on Slow Missile: UsE it *whenever* possible. We're playing to win, right?
The hardest part is avoiding being hit, using the decoy and valkyrie effectively against opposing GA. I cannot merely explain how this is done, but rather i can say it requires a LOT of practice, setting up and recasting quickly, and in 1 cast to save precious mana for multi shot. Just... try to put it where you think the next volley of ga will come from, using your multi to track the others movement.
Avoiding Multi, otoh is easy. Run away from it and reposition yourself.
Melee amazons are just ... easy. run-dodge-shoot-repeat. If you can't do this. Stop playing. Seriously.
This build is finished.
An all around variant for this build would substitute several (say half) 3/5's for 5/5 res/run charms, dump vit instead of dex, and use shaftstop, windforce, and lacerator/lance guard on switch. Good for pubby ffa duels.
Oh, and one more thing... did you read the disclaimer at the top? No? Go do that right now.
EDIT: I have a go-zillion builds, and i have links to breakpoint tables, affix lists and generators, and many other various d2-related thingies, including open script editors and tips for straight-up hex editing .mpq files.
Ask and ye shal recieve. i is d2 guru.

when DII first came out, it was freaking awesome. but then came the hacks just like Diablo. then they made ladder, and then there was more h4x. I quit and restarted D2 like 4 times. always got a few chars to lvl 90 and that was it. mephbot, pindlebot, etc really ruined it (even though i utilized them for a while myself) [especially meph bot when it first came out]

D2 is one of my fav games besides thps. i only get to like lvl 70ish and then i go into this grey area where i stop playin for a couple monthes and then start again when my char is expired. (im in the grey area right now so in a month or 2 look for me "slipknot66615")
i always have an assassin. the one i have now is a MA one with tiger strike maxed and dragon claw maxed too.i also have burst of speed high and cloak of shadowness.
fun fun fun. i suck at magic find so i got this one hack called hack pack. (search for "hack pack" if you want it, it works and easy to work) i dont concider it hacking cuz its only a map hack, a thing that picks up gold and rare items when you get in clicking range automaticly, a thing that tells when rare items are on the ground, and something that doesnt allow anyone to hack into your account. and it works on closed b net yay :chug:

D2 i only played single player,it's quite boring.hate the HUGE landscapes,to get somewhere i gotta run for Miles and miles,fighting stupid AI'less characters.the only thing that kept me going is the cool abilities of the necromancer and the assasin and some niffty items.and to think i bought the expantion at the same time,i wasted a lot.so i ditched it and cant continue on at the harder levels.
if i remember properly at the expantion i got some golden headband that increases your damage by adding ice damage at each hit,i works like a charm with my assasin......heheh,*whack* (insert demon here) slows,*whack*whack*whack* (insert demon here) still fozen.........*whack* (insert demon here) dies........

I can't get started on that game again, I can't stop once I do. The only thing that got me off of it last time was losing my lvl 90 hardcore barb to the Bremm FE/LE bug. The last living character I had was hc 80ish assassin with Natalya's set, with maxed fade/dual claw/tiger strike. I wonder if she's still around, or expired yet.

honestly, diablo 2 could be the worst game of all time. dont get me wrong, i used to be addicted as hell when it first came out, but the gameplay is horrendously repetitive, its basically just a treasure hunt. its like accessorization for guys (nerds). you dont do anything, you just run around clicking one button and hoping you get good stuff, so that you can go around and... kill the same exact monsters (different colors and names just doesnt cut it blizzard) over and over. ill stick with blizzards RTS games.
