Over the weekend I was able to get into the Wrath of the Lich King Beta, and since there is no longer an NDA in place, I have decided to do a series of reports on what I find interesting in my adventures. So first, I will show you what is by far the best feature of the game, read more to see the good stuff!
Looks like Blizzard knows how to keep a tight lip on things. At this weekends Blizzard Entertainment Worldwide Invitational, They announced Diablo 3, along with unveiling three trailers for the game. Lots of cool info can be gleaned from the gameplay trailer, one of the cooler ones being you can now pick your gender for your class.
And now I will show you all the 3 trailers, courtesy of Game Videos.
Open up my email this morning to see an email from Station - Sony’s online game management… thing. Turns out Planetside, the MMOFPS that I played at launch, which has already gone through a server merge, a complete overhaul of the maps and even a “free” option of gameplay in order to coax more players into their realms, has finally had to bite the bullet and start merging servers.
We’ve all seen enough MMOs going through Server merges, and we know that they’re really never a good thing.
All I know is, the promise of free playtime isn’t enough to draw me back into the game where I was really only good enough to fly the transport plane. And even then I still always got shot down.
Capture of the email after the jump, for those interested in the first two paragraphs.
From Bungie.net:
There was a technical issue earlier this morning that held up the planned 2am release of the Heroic Map Pack. Thankfully the issue has been resolved and we can now confirm that Standoff, Foundry and Rats Nest can all be downloaded for FREE via Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
Enjoy!
