Title: D2 Lm Stylez
Post by: Niteowl on October 15, 2004, 12:02:17 AM
LOVE IT!!!

i'm thinking we get.. a buncha of us who play and play on BNET west, cuz west is where the hippies are. perhaps get one of each char so we don't fight over items :)

If I can find some install disks that aren't scratched just enough to be unreadable, I might join up. I've been bored a lot recently, and it has been forever since I've played.

i might be down for a bit of this.

perhaps some more specifics are in order, though.  would this be ladder?  open?  or are you guys crazy hardcore bastards and i'm going to have to pass..

if it's open, well, i've got some pretty stacked characters, if i do say so myself.  so a ladder group might be better for this sort of thing.


if it's ladder, then i've got dibs on being a necro.  cuz i've only got some weak frost pally on ladder, and necro's rock.


edit: oh, nite, you know how much necro skellies rock when they have a decent enchant on, don't you?  you know it's like walking in to a circus shooting gallery with something like THIS (http://www.montysminiguns.com/AirSoftPage.htm) don't you?

I'd be down for that, although I'd rather do it over direct connect rather than b.net.

Hmmm...
Normal or expansion?
Didn't like D2 much, but maybe its like CS, good if you play with friends.

I think he wants us to start from the beginning with new characters, Slink.

As for character choices, as long as I'm not a Barbarian I think I'll be okay; I had two or three barbarians over the course of my past D2 adventures, so it's been kind of overplayed. I'm thinking I'll go for a druid.

BNet, expansion, (which one is more inclusive.. i think it's non-ladder right?) non-ladder, the non-haxable bnet version.

I was thinking of .. yeah, we can just start from teh beginning. i was thinking we'd all have aroudn the same lvl high char, but i guess that's asking too much :(

what else.. oh yeah, maybe we should get Teamspeak running for this?

Trapassin, since you can buy mana now.

I'll go elemental bowazon.

Okay, so USWest closed non-ladder with new characters, now we just need a date.

Post by: Slink on October 15, 2004, 03:07:52 PM
hmm.  well, on closed b.net, non-ladder, i have a lvl 85 Paladin, who's pretty good, and a lvl 95 Necromancer, who's basicaly a demi-god.  don't really know if i'm up to making another new char, though.

i might, though.  some wierd experimental build, though, so don't feel that you have to switch classes.

ehh, it depends.

You guys should play ladder, theres no penalty and there are ladder-only items that can drop.

bleh. i had a 96 assassin like 2 years ago on useast that would have shown you a thing or two in pvp. that baby was untouchable.

set some wake of fire traps, throw out the shadow master, put on burst of speed, dragon flight at the guy and stun lock his ass with mind blast, letting the traps and shadow master violate him.

i could get lightning sentry to level 41. yes, 41.

I'll offer to throw dice to determine the lucky participants, given that I'm neutral.

i've always thought it was important to have a good friend who has an ubar pvp char, so that he can avenge your wrongful death by some pking boogerface.

Post by: bacon_flaps on October 16, 2004, 06:14:53 PM
If you're playing in the same game, you won't need to worry about PK, cause you'd have the max amount of players.  Unless some of you are planning on powerleveling your guy when others aren't present!  FOR SHAME!

Post by: Dubbilex on October 16, 2004, 07:45:06 PM
Well, I'm up for some tonight if there's anybody else around who's interested.
Title: D2 Lm Stylez
Post by: Redford on October 16, 2004, 09:13:15 PM
I'm up.  I'll be whatever anyone else doesn't want to be, because I've played a little with all the characters instead of a whole lot with one.
Title: D2 Lm Stylez
Post by: Grimm on October 16, 2004, 11:22:05 PM
If I don't have the game by some set date that everyone's going to start playing, you can go ahead and take me out of the roll and let someone that will actually be able to play have a spot.

Allrighty - so howabout tonight, Sunday the 17th?  I should be around.  We can even talk about it on IRC.

it should be noted that order on the list has no significance whatsoever.  :p

it also should be noted that grimm doesn't even have his CD's at the moment, so he's out anyways until he finds them.

I figured it would be less of a "come here at 8" thing and more of a "hey hoots - wanna play?" thing.  :p

like I said - I'll be around all night, so anytime is good for me (just shout at me and any others who want to play on IRC).  I live in New York, though, so that EST thing applies.
