gently caress! When I purchased my PS4 I said I would only buy exclusives, I got a Vita, 360 and a PC to support! But this thread has got my finger itching over the trigger for D3. I have it on PC, I have a decent laptop with HDMI out, I even used xpadder so I could play with a 360 controller.. So why the gently caress am I considering it? I'm weak, but with Destiny around the corner I just gotta hold out....

Samurai Sanders posted:So, does Diablo 3 get harder, other than jacking up the difficulty level? It sure seems like I'm a walking nuclear slaughtertank or something. I mean, I think I had to use one on the fight with Leoric, but none before or since. My hit points never drop below 80% or so, and then get refilled by health drops immediately after. Act V enemies might be a bit tougher, but mainly to make it harder you increase difficulty. Once you beat the game you'll unlock Torment difficulty, which has 6 difficulty settings all on its own.

Oh, had no idea about that! Added Disk Management to my google search and now I see there's a specific way of handling that (delete all partitions, create a new, larger partition). Cheers!

It's divided into a bunch of partitions; you have to delete all of them then format the drive.

(Diablo Post) Fellow dungeon crawlers, Add my PSN ID: antihobo I will shower loot upon you in return. _______ Serious question: How much has damage inflated from vanilla? I finished my PS3 version with roughly 280,000 dps, 8000 armor and 90k hp. Clearing monster power 5 was pretty easy. Will I be able to blow through the content back up to level cap on the highest difficulty, or will attempting that make me go splat?

I was ready to waltz into Gamestop and get D3 when my roommate called me and told me he picked it up for his Xbone. Good thing cause my root canal was not cheap. I guess I'll ask here too since it's likely the same on the PS4, we play 4-player couch coop, didn't mess with any settings but by default, each dropped item had a color and player number next to it and would go to them no matter who picked it up, is this new for UEE or just a multiplayer setting? I thought it was awesome being able to save some time like that. I don't know if it's the reward items but the game is incredibly easy even on Hard, we're all under level 20 but each of us has at least 1 Orange and 2 Yellows and we never run out of mana.

Diablo is perfect for people like me who almost never play with people outside a small group, but still want to be nice to people on their friends list. This is to say that if you add casnorf to your friends list, and also play Diablo 3 on the PS4, you might get cool stuff, too. Difficultychat: Hard is normal, basically. You can start fresh on Hard and be way ahead of the the expected power curve very early due to the experience bonus. Three of us actually cranked the difficulty up to Expert halfway through Act I on new characters yesterday, and finally started feeling like champion packs were something to be teamworked.

Playing on the console with a controller is a whole different experience being able to dodge roll away from bad things. Makes it more like a 3rd person action game like God of War.

Does anyone know if you can play downloaded games like Road not Taken an P.T. without connecting to the internet? I noticed that it had to verify the licence when the PSN was freaking out one day, but downloaded the teaser remotely. Did the verification need to be a one time deal or does it have to be connected all the time?

Ularg, what's your psn-id? I'll add you when I get home. One of the reasons I'm excited to try D3 on the console would have to be my hands. After playing so much Torment on my wizard, my fingers were being destroyed as I tried to hold them in an awkward position over the ctrl and shift keys. So I'm looking forward to using a normal controller.

I hope I'm not opening up a can of worms with this post but I didn't see anything in the OP that helped me much so I'm getting a next gen system soon for Destiny (and other games, obviously, but Destiny was my starting point) and am wondering which system has the better exclusives lineup. I was more into the 360 last gen, but was leaning PS4 this time because it looks stronger from a hardware standpoint, but the only exclusive I really know about that interests me is for the XBone (Sunset Overdrive). Is there somewhere that lists and compares the exclusives? Is there anything else worth noting?

Math You posted:(Diablo Post) My solo t6 barb on pc had something like 680k sheet damage, other goons posted over a million, but they were basically at the point where there was nothing left to do. I forget the rest of the numbers, but no, you will not be doing t6 difficulty. You will most likely pick up a blue item in a5 that is better than whatever you had farmed this far. Ed: Actually I forget is torment available before you beat a5? If not then maybe you can play on the highest difficulty.

But after playing D3 for 6+ hours straight, the pain still comes and it's the same! I just got scared shitless by an elite invading my world. The controller was vibrating and a huge horn was blasting out of my speakers. Could you guys sign a petition if I set one up to get Blizzard to add "You're being invaded" and "Invader Defeated" to D3?

I'm interested in Sunset Overdrive, too, but I think you're better off waiting for reviews on it. Insomniac has made some great games but recently they've been having some issues. I sure hope they can deliver with Sunset Overdrive, though - I think it looks cool. The only other Xbone exclusive I'm familiar with is Forza 5, which I was able to play on a friend's console. It seemed pretty good, but basically just an incremental upgrade to the Forza formula.

Is there somewhere that lists and compares the exclusives? Is there anything else worth noting? If you have friends that prefer a specific console, it might be better to get that one so you can play with them. Here are some exclusive XBone games: 1) Halo Collection 2) Sunset Overdrive 3) Forza 4) Fable Legends Some PS4 Exclusives: 1) Infamous: Second Son --Infamous: First Light standalone 2) The Last of Us Remastered (must play) 3) DriveClub 4) The Order: 1886 5) Bloodborne 6) Ratchet & Clank Remastered (must play if you missed them previously) 7) Uncharted 4 (they may release the first three Uncharted remastered) It's important to note that the PS4 is more powerful, so third-party games will most likely run better on the hardware. This is already happening, with stuff like Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Metal Gear Solid already being graphically superior on the PS4 (sometimes quite jarringly), and there is no reason to think that won't continue. Destiny shouldn't vary too much between the systems, but the "main" system for the game is the PS4. Some developers could choose to limit the PS4 version so both consoles run and play the same. The PS4 also currently has double the user-base world-wide (PS4 has something like 40% more users in the US than the XBone), so finding people online should be much easier on the PS4 than the XBone.

Has anyone tried using their PS4 controller on PC? I looked into it briefly but saw all this stuff about having to download drivers for the xbox controller and change setting around and I just sort of decided I didn't care enough. I want to play Dark Souls though and apparently it's much better with a controller so I suppose I'll just have to figure it out.

This is the one game where it was better to not use the PS4 emulator because it acts up. Basically you use the 360ce app in a specific manner and it works perfectly.

I've had no problem with using DS4Tool to use my PS4 controller. That said my PS4 controllers still don't like having the MicroUSB cables in them and they fall out and disconnect just from regular use or sitting on a flat surface.

One of mine has this issue too, in my opinion the port placement was poorly chosen. Setting it down flat with a cable plugged in will usually result in some upward pressure on the cable, which (in one of my controllers, anyway) can cause it to lose the connection.

Does D3:UEE have the in-built "play with three randos" feature? Because for whatever reason, I enjoy that. 300+ friends though, so it's not like I'll be hard up for parties at the moment, just thinking about later when I'm using it as a Destiny buffer.

Yup, exactly my problem. I thought I was going crazy until I just kind of softly pet the cable and watched it disconnect and reconnect constantly. Really hate the switch to Micro from just Miniusb.

I'm very happy with my PS4 and while there are some exclusives on the XBone that are intriguing, the PS4 lineup certainly has the upper hand for me as it stands. Also the XBone has a pure hardware disadvantage that it can't ever overcome, the majority of cross-platform games will look & run better on the PS4 unless the developer has gone for intentional parity.
