Anyone interested in this? Choto and I were talking about it on IRC and it sounds like it could be fun.
Required:
- Diablo 2, LoD v1.13c
- PlugY 10.00 plugin (increased stash, more item information, colored items based on type, and stat/skill reassignment)
- Hamachi (connect to FFHacktics1 or to FFHacktics2 if the first is full, using password "ajora" without quotes) to be updated
The current list of players:
1) Eternal (Necromancer)
2) Kokojo (Paladin)
3) Efrate (Assassin)
4) Kalas (Amazon)
5) Elric (Barbarian)
6) Dol (Amazon)
7) Kihaku (Maybe)
8) Xifanie (Sorceress)
9) Star (Druid)
10) Zareb
11) Celdia (Sorceress, as needed)
12) Reiska (Sorceress)
I would be in provided we have a set day/time/whatever. We could do an LP of it even, I can record, skype, and play prolly if we wanna go that route.
Yes. Can record and skype.
For those interested, post when you can be around/available in the next two weeks or so.
I'm around pretty much any time between 10 AM - 11 PM, but that may change soon if my job starts early.
Available from 7pm-10pm most of the days... all day when I don't work. :P
I may be up for this
Normally for me around 4pm to 10pm AZ Mountain Time Monday thru Friday.
Weekends are whenever I guess
Nice idea, i can't participate, but i'll sure watch it! :D Especially if someone makes a Trapassassin, my favorite class and build. :D
On that note, I know Et is necro cause he likes minions, what is everyone else playing? I'll fill a gap.
Since I heard we are going to be doing this over Hamachii. Do we enable ladder only runewords and drops via PlugY so its as close to the real online experience for everyone who may not have a 100% legit key (which may include me since I cannot find my damn install disc)?
Also Koko you want to do the recording or shall I? My laptop can run it all at once, but my internet is kinda fuckalicious.
Anytime from like 8am to 10pm, then 11pm-7am is fine for me in general, exceptions being friday, and I cannot Saturday night 10-2am or so. Otherwise I'm wide open.
I may play trapsin strife, its one class I never fully explored, but only if we have a convictiondin or et wants to spam the crap out lower resist making his skeletons worse. I heard throw barb is taken as well, so we look to be needing some tankiness, so I might have to din it up. Prolly Tesladin or some such if thats the case, and I can be a 1 point smiter with fanatacism if we really need it for bosses, Black is easy enough to make.
I'd be down for this as well if need be. I'm not a D2 expert or anything (I understood about 1/3 of Efrates post), so if you want to take along someone that knows better, I'd totally understand.
What times work for ya Dol? I expect me and Koko possibly to be the only insane know it all types.
The current list of players:
1) Eternal (Necromancer)
2) Kokojo (Paladin)
3) Efrate
4) Kalas
5) Elric (Barbarian)
6) Dol
7) Kihaku (Maybe)
8) Xifanie (Sorceress or Paladin)
9) Star
10) Zareb
11) Celdia
Also, quick vote, enable ubers and dclone for the lulz or not? (assuming plugy).
If you know the game a bit and you pick your class, please put what kind of class you'll be, like Et is a Necromancer (summoner), makes me picking something to fill what we need easier. Thanks!
Lets see.
1) I'm available from roughly 6-11 pm EST M-F, 12-11 pm EST Sat/Sun.
2) I've played Necromancer and Barbarian before, butchering both of them badly. I'd probably want to do something else entirely since I'm going to noob it up regardless.
3) I'd vote no on haxing :)
I would prefer to b a Necro as well, but i wudnt mind playing as a barbarian
I wish I could participate, my current computer is such a POS though that I can't even run Diablo 2 :(
Well I suppose I'm going to be a Barb, so you can go ahead and update your post Eternal
Maybe me... as a Sorceress preferably, but maybe as a Paladin if the party would be better that way.
Which version will we be using? latest?
All the slots are full now, but feel free to sign up. Chances are good not everyone will be able to play at the same time.
If we don't do uber and whatnot I still advocate for using plugY for stash and ladder only runewords, cause spirit is sweet and without it our casters are at a significant disadvantage but whatever.
I might be up for this
I'm definitely up for this. I enjoy making support characters, so I may roll a Conviction-based Paladin (only if we actually manage to stick with the playthrough and beat Normal difficulty).
I really can play anything, so in the end, just tell me what you guys need and I'll roll it. I personally feel that the party could do without Amazons, but that's just my opinion. A Necromancer would be nice for curses; Barbarian for shouts and a Sorceress for pure damage. Of course, Paladins are always good, no matter the party. As for Assassins and Druids, well... they don't offer anything that other classes can (an exception are Trapper Assassins, just for the pure DPS and survivability).
Druids offer oak sage, and to a lesser extent vines, and windys are beastly without a ton of gear, especially with an amp damage nec, which our summoner should be doing. Javazons are amazing boss killers and great versus all non-lit immunes and if running conviction. They outdamage everything not light/pure blizzard sorc. And poison dagger necs, but poision res is so prevalent and not effected by conviction.
I'll play an item gathering barbarian
I could swear I posted in this last night while I was at work.
Anyways. I run Sorceress when I play. If you need another when you're going to run, just drop me a PM on IRC. If I'm around, I'll join up.
Also, I mentioned this in IRC but anyone who isn't playing, either cause we are full or just cause, feel free to join us on Skype and chat along for the LP, immortalize yourself forever on the interwebz.
Also after whatever LP section is done, if you wish to play and weren't in the 8 provided I have the time i will gladly play and chat after it's all done, help to get you up to speed, whatever.
Also et, maybe update the first post to show who all we got and what we are playing as? Just a thought.
I'll go with Amazon since no one else wants it and supposedly its a novice-friendly class :mrgreen:
Well, I'm up for this yet I'm still unsure what class I'll play.
I usually go for Druid, but yeah..I go for Druid waaaay too often, only if you guys really need it or we don't need anything else.
play whatever Kihaku. I would like one of each class but if it doesn't happen it doesn't. I am gunning for trapsin but if anyone else wants to be a sin I'll fill whatever.
I'll play a Wind Druid or a Whirlwind assassin.
As to fill in the blanks we have
The playthrough will begin tomorrow at 7 PM EST!
Can't do it then
I have a birthday to go to at that hour
BBQ was canceled, it seems, so I'll be around as a backup.
The game will start at 7 PM EST tonight. Be sure to post your Skype name or join us on IRC tonight before we start. I think Koko will be hosting the game and recording.
So our current lineup for tonight:
1) Eternal
2) Efrate
3) DarkxFatal
4) Kokojo
5) Dol
6) Elric
7) Xifanie
8) Zareb
Alternates:
1) Otter
I'm out; this need a new host and my spot has been freed.
I'm curious. 3 Days later... did it ever happen?
Yep! We're playing again this weekend. :D
Any preview of when the frist episode will be out for us to watch?
We only were able to record a bit of it because it caused Koko to lag badly. :(
:(
Try having another one record it.
Next day is tomorrow 7pm-10est-ish unless people say otherwise. If anyone wants to get in on it, hit me up on IRC if you got time tonight and I will get you up to speed on an alt. We have multiple spots, feel free to play whatever. I can play anytime after 1am EST and before about 1030est. Feel free to join up!
diablo 2 1.13c with plugY mod is needed, as well as hamachi.
Everyone else, see you tomorrow!
I'm go for saturday, maybe sunday, sound off plz so we know!
I can make it Saturday.
