Jip, man könnte, zumindest früher, sogar spiele modden.

ha, auf der 360 kann man alles mögliche modifzieren, auch online ...

Mal davon ab, es freut sich noch jmd auf Diablo 3? Das hätte ich nicht für möglich gehalten!
Selten hat ein Spiel soviel Wut hinterlassen ... nicht nur bei mir ...

Mit den ganzen Erweiterungen / Patches soll es doch mittlerweile ganz ordentlich sein.

Worauf ich mich freue ist die Möglichkeit des Offline-Koops. Zocke gerne Action-RPGs mit nem Kumpel, früher z.B. Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance, oder kürzlich Dungeon Siege III oder HdR: War in the North. Da passt D3 ganz gut rein

Ich hatte D3 auch für den PC, allerdings spiele ich lieber am Fernseher auf der Couch und nicht am Rechner, wo man sowieso den ganzen Tag bei der Arbeit vorsitzt. Und D3 per HDMI über den Rechner am Fernseher konnte man vergessen, das UI und die Schrift waren viel zu klein um irgendwas zu erkennen, wurde halt ausschließlich für den Monitor optimiert...

Des Weiteren kann ich mir die direkte Steuerung des Chars ganz gut vorstellen, bin gespannt wie sie das bei D3 umgesetzt haben. Funktioniert bei anderen Action-RPGs ja auch gut.

Diablo 3: no cross-play between PS3 & PC
Over on the Blizzard forums, community manager Vaeflare said on the matter, “While we think cross-platform play would be awesome, there are currently no plans to allow connectivity between PlayStation Network and Battle.net (this is pretty standard for most games that have PC and console support).

“As a result, the characters on your Battle.net account and PlayStation account will also remain separate. In terms of allowing an analog controller hookup for the PC, we don’t have any plans for that kind of support right now.

“Similarly, since Diablo III for console was designed with a controller in mind, the PlayStation version of Diablo III will not support USB mice or keyboards.”

War auch nicht wirklich mit zu rechnen, wäre aber natürlich nett gewesen...

[Oynox]

Ich finde es auch nur wegen dem lokalen Multiplayer interessant. Hoffentlich ist es besser als Sacred 2.

[Nerix]

Das ist auch mein Hauptinteresse. Ansonsten kann ich in dem Genre noch Dungeon Siege III und LotR: War in the North empfehlen, empfand ich beide besser als Sacred 2 (Framerate + Tearing waren da wirklich ziemlich übel). Sacred 3 ist ja in der Entwicklung, mal schauen wie es da wird. Momentan hab ich noch Warrior´s Lair für PS3/Vita im Auge, schaut bisher ganz gut aus.

[Nerix]

Auf der kommenden PAX (22.-24.03.) wird es eine spielbare PS3 Version geben. Btw: der Thread könnte in das Subforum PS3/4 verschoben werden, von einer 360/Nextbox Version ist ja bisher nichts bekannt.

Hier schon mal die ersten Screens:

PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Blizzard Entertainment’s epic action-RPG Diablo® III is moving the eternal war between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells to a new battleground—PlayStation®3! Armed with a controller and a custom-designed interface tailored for consoles, players will step into the role of one of five powerful character classes—barbarian, witch doctor, wizard, monk, or demon hunter—and embark on a dark journey to save the world of Sanctuary from ancient demonic forces. As these heroes adventure from the humble town of New Tristram all the way to the Diamond Gates of the High Heavens, they’ll engage in pulse-pounding combat with hordes of monsters and challenging bosses, grow in experience and ability, and acquire items of incredible power.

Blizzard Entertainment originally released Diablo III for Windows® and Macintosh® PC on May 15, 2012. Within 24 hours it had become the fastest-selling PC game of all time, and as of December 31, 2012, Diablo III had sold through more than 12 million copies worldwide.

GAME FEATURES:
 Five powerful character classes to choose from: barbarian, witch doctor, wizard, monk, and demon hunter
 Direct character control and console-focused changes to character abilities and combat mechanics thrust PS3™ gamers into the action
 Four-player online co-op and four-player local co-op for seamless cooperative play
 Four different difficulty modes—Normal, Nightmare, Hell, and Inferno—that progressively increase the challenge and reward players with more powerful armor, weapons, and abilities
 Hardcore mode for players who seek the thrill of constant peril that comes with the possibility of permanent death for their character
 Completely reimagined interface and new dynamic camera designed specifically for console play
 Interactive environments with dangerous traps and obstacles, and destructible elements
 Randomized settings, events, and loot deliver endless, dynamic gameplay
 A wide variety of fiendish monsters, with unique attack patterns and behaviors redesigned for console
 Features like the Paragon system, Monster Power, Infernal Machine and Brawling add substantial replayability
 Connect with friends, send game invitations, and access voice chat through the PlayStation® Network

Laut Aussagen des Lead Designers wird es außerdem kein Auktionshaus mehr bei der Konsolenversion geben (22.3.13)

- die Gegner sind teilweise für die Konsolenversion angepasst worden
- die Kameraperspektive ist etwas näher am Charakter als bei der PC-Version

Hinweise auf Diablo 3 für die 360:

Wie der Bezeichnung einiger offizieller Screenshots von Blizzard Entertainment zu entnehmen ist, wird das Action-Rollenspiel Diablo 3 auch für Xbox 360 erscheinen. Offiziell bestätigt ist dies zwar bislang nicht, jedoch kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass der Titel auf der Microsoft-Konsole umgesetzt werden wird.

Ah du hast den Titel geändert, sehr schön

Ich glaube ich werds mir holen, Diablo hätte ich schon richtig Bock drauf

Ein recht ausführlicher Spielbericht von der PS3-Demo auf der PAX:

Ein paar Ausschnitte:

Offline/Online Koop:

According to Blizzard, all players will share the same screen, with each person's interface displaying in a separate corner. As they get further away from each other, the screen zooms out - to a point at least. You'll be able to mix and match local and online play, so you can play with a partner on a couch along with remote friends on their own couches.

The game will also support friends lists, invites and, refreshingly, voice chat via PSN, which I was shocked to find out didn't already exist on the PC game. This version of Diablo III won't connect to Battle.net, so don't expect any sort of cross-play between your PS3 and PC.

Loot

Blizzard has adopted a "less, but better philosophy" when it comes to loot, and noted that it wants players to be able to acquire all the great gear by themselves without having to trade items around. Despite there being no auction house, players will still be able to trade items directly online.

On consoles, while playing co-op, you'll all swim in the same treasure pool. "Loot drops a bit more, but everybody gets to share it," said Berger. "So if he picks up your bow, you can just punch him. We let the players police themselves."

Gameplay

Diablo III feels much, much better on a controller than it does on a mouse and keyboard. Put the pitchforks down, folks. I was skeptical too. I spent many, many hours in the demon-infested hells of Diablo II (and a few more with Diablo III), and for a while, I figured a console version would never work. When I think Diablo, I think "click, click, click." But after just a few minutes with Diablo III on PS3—which trades in the clicking for nudging, jiggling, and mashing—I almost wish this series had been built for controllers all along. I hopped on a demo at PAX East this morning, loaded up a Demon Hunter, and wandered through one of the dungeons, flinging arrows and firing energy bolts as I danced my way around a mob of enemies. And it felt good. Surprisingly good. To play this version, you move around with the left joystick while using the colored buttons to attack monsters and interact with the world. On the PS3 controller, you can assign attacks to R1 and all four of the colored buttons. You use L1 (and, I believe, L2) for potions. There's also a new evade command: you can use the right joystick to roll around and dodge enemy attacks.

The takeaway here is that you can move and attack simultaneously, instead of hammering your left mouse button to do just about everything. For a ranged attacker like the Demon Hunter, this is near-revolutionary. It feels graceful. Natural. More like you're inhabiting your character and less like you're guiding them from above.

PS4-Version - keine Infos

When asked whether players would be able to carry over their data from the PS3 game to the PS4, a Blizzard rep simply stated that it wasn't talking about that yet. Upon asking if this would be known prior to launch so consumers could make an informed decision, the developer refused to say. Blizzard also declined to comment on how the PS4 controller's touchpad might be used, or whether the game would be coming to other platforms like the upcoming Xbox 360 successor or PlayStation Vita.

Release

When's it coming out? "Soon-ish," Mosqueira said. "When it's ready," added Berger. "On Blizzard time, because it's a Blizzard game, and we're treating it like any other game."

Andere Konsolen

Any other consoles? Blizzard's designers were coy about this one."Step one is making it awesome for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4," said Mosqueira. "We don't have any other announcements at this moment, aside from 'stay tuned.'"

Ein recht ausführlicher Spielbericht von der PS3-Demo auf der PAX:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013- ... high-water

Der äußert sich in dem Bericht aber ziemlich negativ über das Spiel

At a glance, Diablo 3 may resemble a console action game. This new port even has a fancy God of War-style evade manoeuvre tied to the right analogue stick. And yet, it doesn't feel like an action game. The isometric view and real-time combat may evoke something along the lines of Bastion, but compared to Supergiant's cult classic, Diablo 3 feels downright sloppy, with your rigid moveset ill equipped to fend off the insurmountable throngs of foes the game throws at you. No matter how defensively I play, combat inevitably devolves into a sea of demons clumsily trading blows back and forth with my avatar. My successes and failures seem to be tied more to my stats and gear than how well I perform. For a game that's primarily about fighting things, that's a problem.
