Steerpike1 53 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Well, I got D3 on 15/05, having pre-ordered it in my local GAME store (thus trying to keep them in business). It didn't work at all on my laptop. I tried it on the shared laptop, where it ran for about 20 minutes before either freezing or crashing, with things gradually disappearing behind graphical glitches. So I bit the bullet and bought a new laptop to run the game. It worked beautifully on Friday and Saturday. Today, however, the servers were down. What to do, I thought, what to do? I installed Sacred 2 of course and found it ran at maximum settings with elite graphics! I think I've finally seen how good the game was meant to look. Now the servers are back up, I'll be going back to D3, but I'm also enjoying how Sacred 2 looks on the new laptop, bought to play a game other than Sacred 2 for the first time in nearly four years...

Knuckles 904 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 When I first ran Sacred 2 on max settings (after being on lowest for a year) it was like I was playing a totally different game. Actually caught myself daydreaming at the view in Thylysium harbor. Heard the Eu servers were down but hope everything is working now Link to comment

Glad you go the game mate. Hope to bump into you on the servers. Link to comment
Steerpike1 53 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Well, the servers have gone down again, so I guess it depends whether we're online for long enough to bump into anything Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Steer, gratz on the new lap top with the treasure purchase of Diablo 3! Are you advanced in levels now? You're playing softccore? gogo Link to comment
Steerpike1 53 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yep, I'm softcore SP at the moment. Only got a couple of characters up to level 15 at the moment, and Wood Wraiths seem to be my bane (both the characters I got that far died to them, one to the Old Man, the other in a nasty encounter with three of the so-and-sos).
