Diablo 3 Question/Help

[JoshK]

Yesterday I bought Diablo 3 and got it downloaded to the "playable" part of the download progress. I have about a 20 kb/s connection with Hughes Net because I live in the middle of nowhere and I cant get a decent ISP. Anyway, when I play single player there is a HUGE lag when I do stuff like cast spells go into a building etc. Will this be there when the full download is completed? Or will it be gone when it downloads all of the textures etc.? Thanks!

"playable" means that enough of the game is there to play it completely while it's downloading the rest. For example, you can play act 1 while act 2 downloads. Sadly, it's online only because, well, blizzard. So you'll probably still have these issues in the future

it's because while you're playing it's downloading the rest so it will be taking a toll on your speed.

 

you play on america server? I can help you out  just message me.

Blizz made it online to reduce hackers... or so they say.

 

I guess that makes sense. It cuts down on piracy as well I guess. Personally I think Blizzard offer a decent enough service that it doesn't exactly bother me

wait for it to finish downloading.   it ran like shit while "playable" for me as well. and ive got 60down.  "playable" for them is not the same as playable for us.  kinda like how peasants think 30fps is playable
