wtf i recognize your title and your avatar but your name just is unfamiliar to me

[NomadicNinja]

[Shadaez]

I wish there was a way to know which class was played the most in beta, I don't really want to be the most played class.

i remember seeing one a couple days ago, cant remember the exact statistics but i think remember it being barbarian > wizard > monk > demon hunter > witch doctor

[jiggu]

Funny cause I almost never saw another barb in the beta, most wizards and witch doc's, lods of demonhunters and monks too.

[Anonymuzz]

barb is too cool for groups

[Prism]

Im pretty sure I had a Demon Hunter every fucking game though.

[Raidyr]

I saw a shitload of monks. Probably the most rare was Wizards.

[Shadaez]

Huh, I think WD will be the rarest, but some of the best players will be playing it. I also think that DH will be most played, followed by monk, wizard, barb

[FKop_Dragon]

I honestly found WD to be the most fun, but I also like creating chaos, and doing indirect damage and the such.

[stupid07er]

I didn't think I'd like which doctor at all, maybe just his voodoo look and such put me off, but I ended up really liking him. I'm torn between which class to start with because I liked them all!

[Ghost101]

I think a poll I saw said that all the classes are actually played fairly equally. Though from what I've read Barbarian is definitely in the lead while the Demon Hunter seems to be at the bottom, even if they're all relatively close together.

i find this so hard to believe, the ~leet cool assassin dude who's all darkkkkkkkkkkkk~ is always over played

[Ghost101]

I wanted to make him a melee class, but it wasn't feasible unfortunately. I was hoping for like a sword/hand crossbow combo but it wouldn't let me equip them like that.

[The-Spy]

I am going to play Witch Doctor first then probably Wizard and so on!

[Silly Sil]

Poll from EU forums.

Barbarian: 192
Monk: 145
Witch Doctor: 143
Demon Hunter: 132
Wizard: 129

[jiggu]

I would say " The less Wizards, more loot for me " but since that's not the way it works, I'll just say "oh". I saw lods of wizards so I'm surprised there ain't more in polls.

[irukandji]

I see that WD are favored more than Mages. Dunno how things will be in the HC phases.

Oh, and you almost made me click that title :P

Diablo 3 is a singleplayer game with co-op support, you will be able to solo everything on all chars unless you are absolutely terrible. The game is balanced around singleplayer.

We’ve never seen Diablo as a single player game – it’s always been developed as a coop game. We see Diablo as an online game. We think that’s the best experience we can give to players. That’s what we’re focused on.

Also a nice tl;dr version of the Gamespot interview as well as another Gameplanet interview:

Strange that they'd say that since I've also seen the devs claim that multiplayer is completely optional and that the singleplayer experience is the main focus. Too bad I don't remember where I saw that video. In any case it's pretty obvious that they're moving away from that and moving onto co-op, however still singleplayer in the base.

[Raidyr]

You can complete the whole game no problem without grouping, but grouping is the preferred style of play.

[Wheeze201]

There have been numerous polls on this and the results are always different.



This is a poll that was done on the official american diablo 3 forums. I guess this one is the most accurate.

[LeonS]

who the fuck played diablo 2 for the pvp btw

really who the hell did cause if u did im so sorry for u

[jiggu]

I pvp'd diablo and mashed his face erryday.

And it didn't occur to you that american poll might have different results than european one, not because they are off but because people will play different things?
And don't use imgur on facepunch. It's blocked.

PvP in D2 was retarded. Anyone who thinks otherwise was probably trolling on a hammerdin.

I loved D2s PVP system, nothing cooler than getting peoples ears.

[DTkach]

Someone needs to make a Facepunch poll of what people intend to play first.

As in a third party poll site or editing the OP.

And you'd test "which classes will be played by people from facepunch that noticed the poll". It wouldn't give you much more than that. If you wouldn't get few hundred people to vote it wouldn't give us any idea about how the percentages might look in the actual game. You need huge regional polls.

[G-Guy]

I played D2 for PVP in the end-game because PVM was never really that difficult. Even the Ubers could be done without too much difficulty if you had the proper builds.

Edited:

Anyway, I think that my first character will be a Demon Hunter or a Witch Doctor, or maybe a Monk although I doubt it. Monk to me seems like he'd be better at boss hunting than overall PVM, while Demon Hunter is glass cannon (a playstyle that I love) but has more dependency on gear in my opinion which is why I'm considering Witch Doctor since he's so similar to Necro, could probably beat the game naked.

Hammerdins were hardly a problem. Desyncing hammers on the other hand were annoying.

The ABSOLUTE worst of them all were FCers.

Otherwise they were all fairly balanced well enough...

[Jurikuer]

Sad Panda is sad. My PC is broken and even though I've pre-ordered Diablo 3 I'm getting the bad bad feeling it won't be fixed for the release.

[jiggu]

Hardware or software failure?
