claudius 104 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I haven't played a multiplayer game and talking to other characters in game since Sacred 2. What do people use these days to communicate with their team? Headsets? Keyboards? I'm going to be playing on PS4. I was super excited to hear that there is cross-platform play 1 Link to comment

I was super excited to hear that there is cross-platform play Diablo IV will have integrated voice chat, but it wasn't working for PS4 during beta (there was an in-game notice saying it would be available by release). IMO that's the best bet for any real groups, especially for controller players. You probably also want to keep a keyboard handy for interacting with random passers-by. 2 Link to comment

I think i'm pretty old school claudius and for me most of the time just key boarding is enough, a la Sacred Days years ago...but the fam kinda pushed me and I have head phones now, and as lujate mentions Diablo 4 has integrated chat...and not just so-so chat... VERY good chat... and we were doing cross play between three pc's and a xbox... no lag, no stutter, echo...like we were all in the same room together... for four of us here in clan, I guess this could be a cool friday or saturday night hangout with a few beers or maybe even one of lujate's bordeax's gogo 1 Link to comment
lujate 572 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Personally,I'm going to keep my wireless keyboard on the coffee table next to me for text chat. If I start doing group runs with FDM, and they're using voice chat, then I'll scrounge up my headset. 1 Link to comment

claudius 104 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 (edited) Sounds like could have some fun times playing D IV. I'm looking forward to it! The game graphics look really good. Sounds like people are liking the other elements of the game. Any suggestions on what to look for shopping for in a headset? I briefly glanced at some at the grocery store that were about 25 dollars but didn't look to see any details of what types of headset they were.

I was able to get my game going and played a bit... im currently trying out an ice shards build and ive started a clan... you can search for DarkMatters and our tag is DarK! gogo Link to comment
lujate 572 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 It probably is a midnight release, just in GMT timezone. The timing works for me. I have time Monday to get home and have dinner before the hack and slash begins. 1 Link to comment

I’ll hopefully have my toon up some levels this weekend, when you make it servers you can search our clan or perhaps even try “gogoblender” maybe that would work? trying to find that mount quest .. ahh so much to do after work .. Friday can’t come fast enough! 😄 gogo Link to comment
lujate 572 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 @gogoblender I'll definitely find FDM ASAP after clearing the tutorial. I checked my friends list during the beta, and I still have you and a few other darkmatters folks from D3. 1 Link to comment
Timotheus 414 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Oh man is it gonna be horrible catching up? I haven't preordered so I'll be playing from level 1 when the game comes out this week. 1 Link to comment

I remember in Diablo 3 that became a very used mechanic and still is. gogo Link to comment
claudius 104 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) I haven't purchased yet but I'm also going to be starting from level 1 and level zero for knowledge of the game. I will search for FDM too when I have enough time to play and have the game all set up. If it's not obvious on PS4 how to find FDM players I'll ask here on the forum. I've got a headset to unbox also and figure out. I think my first character may be a Druid named Claudius? Edited June 3, 2023 by claudius 1 Link to comment

Once you created your player take your time, i know i found it overwhelming at first... but you can post here or find your way to the social tab as Lujate indicated and do a search for DarkMatters or the tag DarK or my even my name gogoblender though I dont think it will find players names but would have to test 1 hour ago, lujate said: IIRC, press the touch pad to bring up the map.

Knuckles 904 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Just checking to see if you saw my join clan request gogo. The servers were a little wonky today so just making sure it went thru. Oh and I met up with a D1 boss who will remain unnamed (don't want to ruin surprise for anyone). I am proud to say I killed him without taking a single HP of damage. (Well, he glitched in a door as I ran for my life upon seeing him and him giving immediate chase,. So I was able to gleefully smack him around at my leisure , but hey, a win is a win, regardless of style) 1 Link to comment
