"Diablo III Breaks Amazon's Record for Most Preordered PC Game Ever
It looks as if Diablo III is Amazon's most preordered game ever! One more amazing feat by Blizzard. The record holder before Diablo III was World of Warcraft: Cataclysm. And before that - StarCraft II."

I guess blizzard's marketing team get a bonus this year ^^

Now I'm worried about the servers. :p

I played the open beta, so I'm expecting connection problems...I hope I'm wrong.

I would have hoped they would have looked at the data from the beta weekend and planned server capacity accordingly ready for launch.

The whole open beta thing was really just a big stress test anyway.

Yeah. I think people forget or never realised the whole open beta was designed as a stress test. The whole world was bunged onto just the servers for the Anericas region, rather than spread across three.

Given that once you connected it was fine I've no qualms about it. :)

Still no dispatch. :(

Friday was a disaster took about 4 hours to finally get on. Saturday was better, still inconsistent, couldn't connect reliably. Sunday was pretty much perfect could get into single player and multiplayer no problem. It may have been users tailoring off because of the earlier bad experiences but I have faith in Bliz that the servers will be up. Remember they were catering to the entire world with the american servers. Now at least they have european servers for us.
 
Same. Shopto are normally superb at getting pre-orders out 1-2 days before release.

I can certainly vouch for that. They are very good. Every major title i've ordered has always arrived before launch day.

But. My order processing still says N/A....

I've not been hyped up about a game for such a long time... the last time I felt like that was with SC2.
 
The whole point of an open beta was to stress test servers.

I highly doubt there will be any issues connecting on launch.

Although, if you leave the download until launch, you're gonna have a bad time.
 
Yeah mine says N/A as well. Going to be miffed if neither shop.to or Gamestop get it to me on time :p

N/A?

Mine was in the pre-order bit and then my card got charged and it's moved to a pending order with status 'Processing'. They've credited my points as well so hopefully it's coming today :)
 
So, I thought I'd install Diablo III:

I'm probably gonna get moaned at a bit for asking but I;m at work and its hard to go through this thread looking for answers at the moment so I apologise now! :p

I've purchased the Digital Version from B.Net and got the download completed etc and I understand everyone from the UK can play from 11:01pm on Monday.

But If Its the downloaded version where do I get the CD Key from? Is it emailed to me or stored in my B.Net profile? Can't remember reading anywhere how this bit happens.

I'm guessing that you wont need a CD Key because Diablo III will be already tied to you're account.
