You might start seeing some new reports about thebeta client as we've begun limited external testing with employees and theirfamilies, and there is no non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for that. " An NDA doesn't allow streaming, screenshots, game details, etc tobe released to the public. Since there is no longer an NDA, the Diablo III Betais now viewable in the public eye.

Speedskater 167 Posted September 8, 2011 From what I've seen blizzard has kept a lot of the things the same, added some new features we've wanted, and made the graphics betters. which in my opinion is exactly what I wanted. Also I like the gameplay styles of each character available. Always hard to pick which one you truly want. Share this post Link to post
