Just wondered how many have this game and would be willing to play it online since I currently know of 3 other people who play it online and yesterday we actually played all together.

So far the player list is:

Me (level 25)
Genghis (level 26)
Kathy (level 23)
Cornmaster (level 18 almost 19)

:D

Are we talkin 1 or 2? It would take some time for me to get my save game back from a friend who backed up my comp before a format which has my save from part 1. If part 2 I already have a save ready.

Sixchan
Jan 11, 2002, 04:22 PM
Ah! Too bad, I just erased my saves a few days ago!

I'll see what I can do. I might have a 23rd level character ready in a few days. D1 or D2?

CornMaster
Jan 11, 2002, 04:24 PM
D1.

Dell19
Jan 12, 2002, 03:21 AM
Yep D1 although if enough people post about D2 then you could start arranging D2 games. Also I may get D2 at some point in the future...

Sixchan

Right, well, give me a few days and I'll see what I can do. Around level 20?

BTW, what are your character's classes? I'm going to do a rouge but is anyone else one?

D1 = Diablo (normal)
D2 = Diablo 2

K got my save back, only a lvl 14 warrior but I have decent weapons a higher level friend bought me. So how are we arranging this?

Sixchan
Jan 14, 2002, 10:18 AM
I found one of my old rogues, lvl 20, but not a point in magic. Unfortunately, someone's been messing with it, and I have some pretty pathetic gear (As in non-magical). Do we need to use the same patch? If so, which one?

CornMaster
Jan 14, 2002, 11:15 AM
We all need the newest 1.09 patch from www.blizzard.com

It would be best to organize it over ICQ/MSN/AIM (I use all 3 and could act as a "hub")

However....if no one has it...I guess we will have to do it over the forum.

If you connect to battle.net it should install the patch for you.

I've got to make a new character for B.Net? Aww ****. :(

Is there anyway I can use my single player character? Swich the saves or something?

CornMaster
Jan 15, 2002, 03:05 PM
Current CFC players, their characters, and current levels.

Dell19 - Level 26 Warrior
Cedric_Green - Level 19 Warrior
DaCornMaster - Level 21 Rogue

Sixchan (Ferinel) - Level 10 Rogue

Does that help?

Ahh, that game last night was fun! Dell and Genghis just sat on their asses and talked while I worked up levels.

I might be able to play tonight, but I can't garuantee it. Hopefully I might gain some levels and be able to play like I used to.

BTW Dell, I have played the game before, I even had a lvl50 sorcerer once, so you don't need to explain EVERYTHING to me.

The Balrog
Jan 16, 2002, 11:03 AM
Ooohh....

I once had a level 99 barbarian.

Sixchan
Jan 16, 2002, 11:05 AM
Sorry, that's Diablo II.

And my lvl 99 Sorceress could blast his ass any day.

Cedric Greene
Jan 17, 2002, 09:45 AM
I would like to thank Genghis and Corn for the six level gain and awesome equipment, which I'll be in debt for for about 6 months ;). Anyway I look forward to future games when you guys will kill some stuff too ;)

You should see how slow it is to level up in the higher levels...and watching someone play isn't that bad.

CornMaster
Jan 17, 2002, 01:28 PM
Every one should post their character stats:
DaCornMaster: Level 22 Rogue

Damage - 23 - 40 (Brutal Bow of the Heavens)

Does anyone know if there is a way to get two computers sharing a cable modem connection through a router to join the same Battle.net game? I would like to get my little sister playin with me if possible.

GenghisK
Jan 18, 2002, 07:17 PM
Using Win2K you can share your connection easily. But the major problem is that the 1.09 patch f*** up Win2k. each time you finish playing diablo, be sure that 5 mins after Win2k crashes and auto reboot. :mad: Thanks MS stability.
Under 98 you have free proxies and routers such as winroute, the most effective and famous freeware.

Now back to the game, I've got an awesome sword for you, Cedric. Concerning me, I've found a dragon amulet of wizardy. I admit though it was quite hard to choose between my rings. More magic (hence mana) or more resist magic/fire/lightning? Finally I chosed the 1st one.
Now my stats are:
STR 45(max for sorcerer)
DEX 56
MAG 225

Fireball doing up to ~500 damage... That's why I can't use them when teamp playing :( I would wound my teammates!

Cedric Greene
Jan 18, 2002, 08:51 PM
Wound your teammates?!? More like slaughter them. Anyway I was just playing and found Plate of the Ages, I refuse to throw it away or sell it, unfortunatly it only is armor of 68 but does someone maybe want it? Can't see throwing indestructible armor away.

K I was just reading through some stuff at Freshman Diablo ( http://www.arewehavingfunyet.com/diablo/diablo.shtml ) and just realised that there was an expansion for Diablo I called Hellfire. I'm just wondering if anyone here has tried it and if so what they thought. I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick up a copy, even with the lackluster reviews from www.ebgames.com but I would like to know beforehand if this would screw up my existing characters or online play. Any info would be good.

Dell19
Jan 19, 2002, 03:17 AM
The main problem would be I think we all have to have the same version to play although I think you would still be able to use your mp charactor using the expansion pack.

GenghisK
Jan 19, 2002, 03:26 AM
He Cedric, I know I'm really clumsy sometimes but as you could see, now, I exclusively have the role of team doctor :D No using any attack anymore. Just heal other :p
Btw, I have Hellfire... Want a good news and a bad one?
The good: it's quite cool, playing the monk, the new character.
The bad: it's a solo addon. No MP. Finally an unofficial crack was released by hackers to allow HF to be played in MP games, but only through LAN :( Doesn't work over Bnet.
(The ugly :D The hidden characters suck.)

PS: I found a Jade plate of the age. Armor 75, resist all 20% :p

Level 27!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I just need another million points and then it will be level 28...Todays game was a great game of hide and seek. Six was on level 4 but couldn't make a tp so I hd to work my way through level 5 - very annoying.

Sixchan
Jan 19, 2002, 08:35 AM
Ah, yes it was fun, wasn't it?

I got surrounded by hordes of zombies and had 15 archers firing at me. I was lucky to escape.

I gained 6 more levels too! Level 16 now, and a few more levels in the next few days I hope.

EDIT: I gained 6 levels, not 5.

That's why chain lightning, nova, flash and .... apocalypse are for ;) :D
Could slay 14 slayers at the time :)

They didn't help you much on nighmare level though did they :p

Well they won't help a lot, especially when I'm talking on the phone and not noticing ennemies attacking me ;) That's the point :D

Dell19
Jan 28, 2002, 12:07 PM
Okay you have an excuse...

Another thing that happened that day was that me and Genghis joined a public game. This was to give a level one player some weapons which Genghis did and then the level one player decided to try and kill me. After about 10 hits I had lost about 10 health, so I made one attack and he started complaining...Okay I halved his health but he attacked me first.

:D Think I finally found a way to do it. Was going through the labyrinth that is the Battle.net forums and stumbled upon a link to this http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=mdt0243p . Now I actually belive it was written for Diablo 2 but I hope it should work with other games too. I have yet to try it but I do wish to take a whack at it.

I have done that at my house for StarCraft/BroodWar, WarCraft 2BNE, and Diablo2/Xpac.
