When I have been able to login, its been really fun though. Unfortunately, I have not had much luck logging in, and its all screwy again.

Someone on Amazon posted a review titled "Great Main Menu" because that was as much of the game as they were able to see.

Yeah, I got an hour in this morning, played again for a while after it came up, and when i went back on to group with my friends at 10, crashhhhhhhhhh.

Is it that you have to be logged, or just once to authenticate?

One of the Amazon reviewers stated this:

Blizzard should do the right thing and say, "Continuous Internet Connection required. If Internet connection is interupted, this game will not function."

Here's an interest post that some here might be happy to hear:

"For someone in your situation i would completely understand pirating the game. http://skidrowcrack.com/diablo-iii-collectors-edition-full-crack-wait/comment-page-1/#comments is the number 1 cracker for games like this and most of us are pretty sure they will have something up for people like you without continuous internet connections within the next couple weeks. DRM is a futile method of preventing piracy that just causes people like you to not be able to enjoy their single player games that they paid for. Up to you whether or not you want to use the above link. "

Gamers around the world who waited since 2001 for new Diablo content were disappointed as server problems prevented them from playing the game.

Gamers who purchased Blizzard's long-awaited sequel to Diablo 2 were disappointed today when they were unable to log into the company's BattleNet game servers to play the game. As part of a strategy, gaming companies have increasingly been implementing a type of DRM that requires players to be logged into an online server to validate their purchase of the game, even during single player gameplay.

Blizzard's apparent decision to take this concept one step further has angered fans who were hoping to actually play the game they purchased. "If nobody is able to play the game, nobody is able to pirate it," said a Blizzard representative in response to criticism. "In theory, a great idea. In practice, flawed."

Indeed, gamers have long found the process of maintaining a persistent internet connection to play a game they've already paid for dubious based solely on the idea that they might not have access to the internet. In this case, the company's own dreaded "error 3005" is the cause of the problem. No solution is currently offered, and an attempt to follow a Google search result link to Blizzard's forums for "error 3005" ironically returned a 404 error.

Blizzard has been working around the clock to fix the overwhelmed servers and have promised to have them working "when they're working." In the meantime, disappointed players might be interested in some World of Warcraft. The first dose is free...

So assuming they work out these problems, I may get this game friday, as I see it's available for Mac.

[Miracloman]

Yes. Unfortunately since I rented it and now can't return it, I'll have to continue on.

But I'm never buying (or renting) a new game from Blizzard ever again.

I took a similar decision after seeing the last content patch for World of Warcraft:Cataclysm.
