If I were a lesser man I would point out the poetic irony of getting errors due to overloaded servers when one was trying to log in to Bnet to play by themselves. Oh wait... 
Okay okay, before anybody comes in and crucifies me, I'll just say "uncle" now. But even if the errors are cleared up in an instant, it's still a stark reminder of what many of us have been so disappointed about with Blizzard's decision to be always-on only.
Don't think anyone's arguing that it would have been better for customers if there was an activation only single player mode. It would have resolved this whole thing before it happened.
That said, to be fair to Blizzard, when I did get in, I played 8 hours straight with no lag, no disconnects and no bugs. |

Frankly, it doesn't matter if they took the server down to glaze it in gold.
People bought a game, they were sold it with some agreement they may be able to actually play it. They paid. They can't play what they paid for!
Please stop defending Blizzard, you look like real fools, they could have been ready if they wanted to be.
They wanted to save costs at other people's inconvenience, at the end of the day, that is business, that is Blizzard, a dev house all about business.
yep. It isn't rage worthy, just disappointing. |

| Downtime is still downtime, whether it's because of being overloaded or taken offline for maintenance. You're still dicking over your paying customers with issues that should have been worked out through your pre-release "stress tests." |

Everything is a matter of hours, just a matter of how many. One person ignored all side-quests and exploring and sprinted to the end in 12.5 hours. Then again, people "beat" Skyrim in 2.5 hours, too.
Took me 8 hours to clear through partway into Act II. |

Weird, he never had any for me. Oh well, maybe it was just my level was too low, thanks for the heads up.

There's a lot of people speed running the game for bragging rights. I haven't finished it yet but doing Act 1 took me 8ish hours. Can't login right now and it's spitting out the wrong error messages btw. |

I saw that someone beat the first difficulty in just over 12 hours and ended up a level 32 Barbarian. I'm JUST into Act 2 and I've put in over 7 hours already, so maybe I'm just being thorough, or I'm just slow as hell. And then I've got three more difficulties to go. Gonna be playing for a long time to come. |

For reference, Error 37 (the error I am getting right now, repeatedly) is "The servers are too busy right now, try again later."
Keep acting like you know what's what, though. By all means. |

The servers are more-or-less down to fix the problems everyone is complaining about... they aren't overloaded. Fuck almighty.

Did you read the Notice on the login screen? They are doing maintenance. Of course you are going to get errors right now.

How invasive is the required internet connection for SP?
I'm on a handcranked internet connection in the centre of the jungle. Is it just a once off login or something more..diabolical?
Diabolical. It's not just a check at the beginning, every moment needs to be authenticated with the server, and if there's too much lag you can experience rubber-banding in single-player. Think of it like an MMO instance with a population of you. |

If any Blues'ers are looking for someone to kill the demons with just hit up CptRanger on BattleTag or whatever it's called.
You'll need your full battletag, which should have a unique 4 digit number at the end of it.
I'm always up for Co-Op as well, just keep in mind I'm the exploring type. I like to check every area, and I'll double back in a dungeon if I've found the next level but haven't fully explored the one I'm on.  |
