Hey , to play faster after the patch is it better to download the torrent or just waiting the classic update ?

If you have fast enough internet to have the 3,X Gb patch downloaded in that 3 hours of realm down, then there is no diff.
If your internet is not that good, the torrent is better but only if you can start now and have the 8Gb thing fully downloaded by the time the game is up again
And if you play on steam and plan to keep playing on steam, the torrent is not an option for you at all

Ok thxs i will wait the classic update , but Are you sure that the classic update Will be available as soon as the realm is down ?

I finish work at 8pm...but it takes me 55 mins to get home. Hopefully this means I will miss all the problems with the servers lol

Can never be completely sure on that(or about everything on life... srry ^^). But seriously, if you want to start from minute 1, its safer to consider youll have something between 2 and 2,5 hours to make the 3gb download, and as Chalk_Circles just pointed, games in general bump into technical problems that extends the downtime or even causes a second smaller patch to be necessary when they impement a expansion-esque patch in a semi-regular fashion

this league is far from the gloomy concept that I thought that this game would always have -.-

I don't play in parties much, but to my knowledge the netting system sounds pretty solid and well thought out to me. Perhaps there is some loophole for people to abuse, but I can't think of any. Well done!

I may be missing something(as i didnt paid much atention to the parts about how monster-catching woks in parties), but i dont recall something to prevent everyone in a party to each get his/her own copy of the same monster if they all net it at the same time(like making monsters unable to be netted more than a few times in an extremely shot time spam for example)

And if that is really the case, this league is going to be a multibox user's dream come true

This close to launch and no official announcement for Challenges?

That's pathetic GGG. You're not going to be changing these at the last minute, unless you want to unleash the wrath of countless bugs. Very shoddy league launch so far.

They already stated they won't reveal the challenges before launch.

Traditionally, we post the challenges alongside the rewards. This always puts us in an awkward situation because we try not to change stuff after it has been announced, but the final week before release is a critical period for fine-tuning and testing. We have decided not to announce the challenges before the league starts, so that the team have freedom to keep adjusting the challenges as final testing continues.

zero mention of xbox once again

"If you're not able to play the game on launch day, be sure to check out our community streamers on Twitch! Good luck everyone! See you at launch!"

Server will crash on every net that's thrown for the first 2 hours or so but after that it should be smooth sailing - I think :)

Promoting party play. I love it.
