Its the name of one of Ian Flemmings short stories in For Your Eyes Only. The title really has nothing to do with anything, because they didnt include anything from the short story in the film. They just needed a name for the 'evil organisation' behind everything and probably thought 'Quantum' sounded cool.Taegukki

I thought the title related to
[spoiler] How he got his revenge at the end (I guess, I had no clue what was going on half the time) and how he was at peace for a bit or something... [/spoiler]

Personally why waste that money on Diablo 2 just wait for Diablo 3, but im 15 and dont have job so thats my take , if you can get money fast than do it.xAngels_Assasin

I never really understood this "Just wait for this game, don't buy that game" thing. Not only that, but not buying anything and saving for D3 is a bit pointless, considering how D3 is a few years away.

[QUOTE="ScarlettIvy"]This is just sponsorship, which means more money for the game developers. Sponsorship is a good thing as it means these companies won't go bust and stop making the games we love.Makemap

Lol, would you rather have more people falling for the propaganda or better games without advertisement, those advertisement can take up alot of space, and those extra space would be enough space for more features in the game.

This is one reason people don't buy video games for kids 12 and under, they get affected easily. 



This isn't propganda, It's an advertisement. Its no different than driving on a freeway and having a 10 year old kid seeing an advertisement there. Also those advertisements in game take essentially no room at all, Its just a picture. If it gets to the point where its taking up precious space, the devs need to have their priorities worked out.

What grade are you in and what time do you go to bed I've been feeling the same way, although I don't go to bed until like midnight.

[QUOTE="Silent-Hal"]WOW is repetitive in the same way a job is repetitive. Omni-Wrath

Wrong again you can kill, do quest, do jobs, sell, and go on raids. It is not repeitive., 

It is repetive, I don't see how someone can say otherwise. Repetition isn't necessarily a bad thing, but in WoW it just makes it feel like a chore.

[QUOTE="luke1889"]If I liked her and she liked me...sure. Why not?Dark_Knight6

Just as a heads up, I think older brothers are obligated to hate their sister's boyfriends.


It might be just me, but I honestly don't care who my sister's boyfriend is. As long as he isnt a tool or anything its fine. She is 12 though...

The only online games I played back then were Diablo/EverQuest, so based on that I'd say when I was around 8 years old.

Well my sister had a slumber party a few weeks back, shes in middle school and is turning 12. Im 17. She invites 3 of her friends over. One of her friends is very... "flirtacious". It was around 8 or 9 at night, and it was pretty dark, and we were all outside just talking. My two cousins were there (19 and 21), although they went inside the house when I didn't notice, so it was just me with my sister and her friends sitting in lawn chairs. They noticed that they were all alone with me, and one of them sat on my lap... like literally shoved her bottom in my crotch. Needless to say I was shocked, and was shouting "WTF are you doing, get off me, wtf".

She got off like 5 seconds later, commenting on my "comfy" lap and saying how she didn't feel my... yeah. I did try to get up and move, but then my sister kicked me in the chest (We were sitting in a circle like shape) saying "Don't move, I'm going to use you as a footrest". I think she bruised one of my ribs when she did that. I got up again, and as i did the one who sat on my lap then mooned me, which was her way of telling me what kind of underwear she had on (or almost lack of...).

I could possibly go into more detail about what else happend and what led to what and what they talked about, but that would probally be more suited for a blog post. Needless to say, It was the most awkward day of my life, and she is not allowed at my house anymore, and my mom will not allow me to be alone with 12 year old girls anymore. On a side note, She also took a $10 bill out of my wallet and put it in her "short" shorts (emphasis on short) and did not have any underwear on at the time. The other girls tell me she didn't, and I took their word for it.

Everyone calls me a pedophile now too:x

[QUOTE="Mr47fitter"][QUOTE="vlin1108"][QUOTE="Swoopdawhoop"]

You had it all my friend. Fame, money, women, RTS, RPG. And you blew it!

You had the warcraft franchise. But now no more building small armys, no more making bases. You had to make World of Warcraft, so we can get te phay lewtz.

You had the starcraft franchise. But now no more at all, because you tryed to to sell 1 game for 3 times its worth.

Please, I beg you, leave Diablo alone. Keep whatever is left of you intact.

Blizzard said that it will charge money for additional content for Diablo 3. :lol:

And skills might be automatically assigned, plus enemies leveling up with you...4 player multiplayer limit...

I love how people bash a game they have no information about and have never played. :roll:

"Blizzard said that it will charge money for additional content for Diablo 3."

No, they won't. Only for certain features that are hard to change.

http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/13/blizzcon-2008-rob-pardo-talks-battle-net-monetizing/

"With Battle.Net we're definitely looking at possible different features that we might be able to do for additional money. We're not talking about Hellgate or anything like that. We're not going to tack things on. I think World of Warcraft is a great example to look at. We charge people if they want to switch servers or if they want name changes, things that aren't core to the game experience, they're really just optional things that some people want. It takes us some development work to do it, so it makes sense to charge for it. We would never do something like say to get the full game experience, you'll have to pay extra."

Secondly...

"And skills might be automatically assigned, plus enemies leveling up with you...4 player multiplayer limit..."

Skills won't be automatically assigned :roll:, the various points associated to the ****will. For example, if you're playing a Wizard, it won't make any sense to put points into strength, therefore, it will automatically assign you points into intellect and stamina.

Enemies leveling with you gives the game replay value. As for the 4 multiplayer limit, I believe Blizzard is referring to multiplayer outside of cities (Guild Wars ****. In the cities there will be an unlimited number of players in different districts.


I thought the 4 person multiplayer limit was only there on the demo, and was going to be 8 players when its finished. Unless I misread something.

What are your computer specs and did you try to reinstall the game to see if it fixes it?
