Path of Exile(diablo clone)

Ive been involved in so many game launches from the start, everyone trying to login at exactly the same time, server locks up and its all FAIL. This could be the most inventive way to throttle players into a game launch yet. Making them wait for the download before they can login :) Its an evil trick but may just work.
 
I managed to login and walk around fine, I suspect the slow download speed is helping their servers out, although saying that mine downloaded at about 700kbs when I was getting it.
 
yep the game once updated and logged in is fine, tons of players online and the Dev's are answering queries in chat.

can't reiterate just how much 'fun' this game is, play it ! :p

in game nick 'Saurazgul' if anyone wants to add
 
Combat seems a little slow at start but once you pick up some casting speed/movement speed game is fast paced and fun as ****, got to 15 tonight on hardcore, can't wait to play again tomorrow, I'm due a death soon surely.
 
Yeah I found on previous playthroughs that once you hit mid 20s the combat really takes off with frantic button hammering trying to balance hp/mana regen with a constant stream of skills.
 
Closed beta was probably what you think of as a 'beta' where as this Open Beta is pretty much a launch but its not a finished product and they want to keep adding to it and making it better, which is a great thing IMO.

Weren't people level 60 on Diablo 3 after the first day as well?

Well probably not because no one could play it but still it wasn't very long after release.
