I cant wait for the datamined info to see if they fixed the necro or not.

MuffinSteve … I am too scared to look at any Classes … I think I will just go with my gut and see how it plays out in-game.

But … you do you. :slight_smile:

See you in-game! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I doubt. I would not expect SS scale changes, that would be risky.

Should start now. Blizzard always makes people wait very late in the day.

Starts tomorrow in my timezone. Booooo Buuuuu :beers:

Not available in Australia yet…

Absolutely! Minion idle necro is no longer possible to carry you through game, I would say they fixed it well in the first pass.

Typical necro hater go back to Fortnite please.

You clearly don’t know how bad they are in end game. So many people complained about it in last beta they did a hotfix on the back end to make them survive longer which was a help but not enough which if you look through forums you will find tons of more post about them still being trash.

I guarantee they buffed them, you will see, then ill see you create a post stating they are op.

Buddy, I main necro, keep coping or back to idle adventurers with you.

Still not able to download (EU Germany).

The Diablo 4 pre-load will be available starting 30th May at 4 PM PDT.

For us it is pretty much “tomorrow”.

The time is in Pacific Daylight Time. You need to calculate when that will be for your time zone and location.

The Launch Maps will help you. The show you what time “4pm PDT” is elsewhere in the world. It will also help you learn how the actual Launch will work. It will be at the exact same time in your time zone.

NOTE: If you already had your Bnet launcher up you may need to restart it completely (shut it down from the task manager and all associated processes) or just reboot the computer. That helps it pick up the update that the DL is available.

So don’t panic if you don’t see the DL right away. Just wait 5 mins, reboot, and check again.

Confused am and pm.
You Americans really make it hard for us Europeans :sweat_smile:

If I remember correctly there is a way to display date and time in individual local time in a forum post.
Anyone remembers how this is done?

I bet you do buddy, I am also the Queen of England, the Pope, an Avenger, and a out right heck of a guy!!

Download should be available roughly 10 hours from now.

See you in Hell.

I just checked. For me the time is always local, but you can change to a 24h display by changing the language to English (UK) from Account Settings → Interface.

I think you are misunderstanding me.
I mean a way to display date/time in a forum post in local time (e.g. with BBCode).

Have seen some people doing this in the Overwatch Forum in the past.

WyomingMist right? If anyone posting knows how to do that he does. He has some pinned guide posts on General forums for most of Blizzard’s games.

The other place to look is the Discourse company website. They make the forums and would have info on features and how to do stuff.

Please let me know if this works for you:

It should display the start of the pre-load in your local time.
If it works, maybe OP can use this in his post.
