You'd think these companies would do some research when they do these kinds of things. There have been numerous examples and usually the response is "we didn't realise this many people wanted to play" which is a pathetic excuse.

Silly.
 
Just so people know, there are no EU servers, you have to set it to 'THE AMERICAS' in the options (and be using the beta client).

The point is to see how much interest they get I would have thought rather than throwing their full server capacity at it.

Blizzard can now see how many people connected/tried connecting and can see how many people they can handle per server/cluster or however they work things in their data centres.
 
I hope everyones made sure to change it to log in to Europe in options?

Think I'll go get a shower anyway, its clearly not gonna be playable any time soon so no rush.

You'ld at least think that Blizzard, the richest and most popular game studio would be better than this.

Well surely if they are just testing how many connections are being made, then they would have made it a 2MB download file rather than 2GB and annoy a hell load of people :p

Now, I'm getting an Error 12 saying I have no Diablo 3 license attached to my Battle.net!

And now an Error 37.

What next?

"Error 69? Erm...just busy really. No reason lolz!"

:rolleyes:

It's BETA! They are stress testing. They are finding out how many people are interested, how many people the servers can handle all of which will help them estimate how many servers they'll need.
