I cant tell from previews I read - Is this patch out yet or not? I would like to play the game looking as good as possible and every source I read differs on the patch's release - some to it being a "day one" patch - then others to it being in the "near future".

does anyone know the exact release date of this patch? Thank you so much everyone!

We have about a month until the next Xbox's reveal and probably confirmation for this always online rumor. For the most part, both gamers and journalists are lamenting this choice but we are not seeing explosive anti-always online coverage. This needs to be the headline after the announcement, not specs, not killer apps, not games.

We need to mobilize somehow to create a purely toxic environment for Microsoft on this subject to where it is brought up in every interview, is blasted on every forum and social media site until they back down from this anti consumer 'feature'.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions for us to mobilize as a gaming community, not just Gamespot's forums, to push this conversation to the brink? The gaming journalists are going to tip toe this issue for their exclusive interviews and content, which their whole business model is based around; but if EVERY journalist and every site rip this apart, the negative effect on these organizations will be nullified.

So, long story short - weve got one month to unite gamers against this bullshit and to ensure that negative always online criticism is the FOCUS of the announcement coverage, not the narrative about power and games Microsoft wants... any ideas?

Thanks for taking the time to read, take care guys!

I know his explosive arrows can shoot at the ground or upward.  Or his down+back light can shoot straight up or straight down if youre in the air... But theres been situations where the regular arrows ive been able to aim upwards and seen others do it but I dont know the control for it.

 

does anyone know how to aim his regular arrows upward?

[QUOTE="MercenaryMafia"]Decrease the price of XBL and im sold.mrsniper83
How low do you want it to be...its pretty low right now for what you get

no its not. Voice chat? Any PC messenger service offers that.. Leaderboards? really not a big deal. Dedicated servers? Nope. XBL is cool/fun, but we have NOT been given a value for our 50 bucks a year, thats just a fact. If dedcated servers were the norm, thatd be a start, but as of now, XBL is just a messenger service that we can link up to eachother on, then, buy stuff with MS points :\ Sooner we start having that honest discussion, the sooner XBL gets better. So quit lying to yourself and others that XBL is a "good deal"

Needs to stop.  Im posting in gamespot because I dont like IGN's forums; i just saw IGN's second opinion and this myth that "Oh, its all about accessibility, if you misplaced a single skill point in D2 you might have to reroll."

 

WTF are they talking about?  Ya, if you misplaced 20 skill points, you might break a character.. But this myth that there were so many useless skills that people invested in just needs to stop.

 

Sorry, just, im aggravated by this narrative theyve created that the game has no customization for accesbility reasons.  It has no customization because Blizzard wanted to simplify the game, NOT because D2 had a problem.

 

Just had to get this out there, have a good day dudes.

They took what was one of the most expansive, involving, unprecendted gameplay varieties... You could have 3 paladins who were wholly different.. and you went and made every single character we all make the exact same.. I WANTED SO BAAAADDD for this game to be as good as D2.. but its not, after 15 hour of gameplay, this is a sick, demented, pathetic imitation... Blizzard, why did you give the StarCraft fans what they wanted, but not us?  Why did you betray us?  This game has no more than 2-3 months of replayability, not the years of replay D2 had... Thanks, Blizzard.. over all your success (that us D2 fans started, btw)... for wasting our $^&$ing time.  Thanks for nothing. Jesus, Ive never been so disapointed in a dev studio or a game. Why?
