Diablo III Open Beta Weekend [Apr 20, 2012, 08:19 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Following indications yesterday that more accounts were being granted access to the Diablo III beta test, the Diablo III Website announces the beta will indeed be opened this weekend to anyone with a Battle.net account for stress testing. The open portion of the beta will begin at 3:00 pm EDT today and will run through Monday at 1:00 pm EDT. The accompanying FAQ explains how this will operate, and notes that while Korean players cannot participate, they will be holding a separate invitation-only event in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. The invitation only closed beta will continue as planned until May 1st. To get a head start, you can download the client now from Battle.net.

Anyone that says it will take under 2 hrs to explore everywhere, listen & read all quest and flavour text, loot everything, etc in the beta is an awesome bag of sunshine who I adore
What a surprise
No one said it would take less than 2 hours to do every single possible thing in the beta. There's a difference between doing every single thing and the average completion time. Maybe you like to do everything and it takes you longer, ok wonderful. I don't like to rush but likewise I don't need to explore every single nook and cranny nor stop dead in my tracks to listen to voice over exposition. Besides, as I said most people will get multiple playthrus from different character types which blurs what most people will really remember as their run through. Whether it's an hour and a half or two to most people isn't really going to make a difference either. People say its short because its short, the extra 30 minutes isn't likely to change their mind. Being short isn't necessarily bad and the length is on par with previous Blizzard tests.
Is there a non-downloader file to the Windows installer? I can't download through my employer's firewall.
Do you mean a full size installer or just the installer that starts their little DL client?
