Diablo 3 Update: Waypoints are Back, Fire Mongrels are Out

While the Diablo 3 information trickle is just that, a tiny little trickle, one or two updates are coming through.

Waypoints are now confirmed, as is the new version of the "Mongrel" or "Zombie Dog".

Well, it's nice to know we'll have Waypoints...

Cogo5209d ago

To some degree I agree, but I was kind of looking forward to this feel of being left out in the wilderness, fighting tactical and ferocious at the same time...

ThanatosDMC5209d ago (Edited 5209d ago )

Yeah, but that's gonna be a long run towards wherever we have to go to.

Also, it's good that they took out elemental enchantments from the minions since in Hell Mode those measly elemental damage would be useless. Unless they keep on detracting more and more away from the idea of Diablo and more to World of Warcraft.

Fyzzu5209d ago

Some news is better than none, I guess.

Leord5209d ago

Could be a lot more, though...

AndyA5209d ago

Yup, it's time we saw a little more, Blizzard.

Cogo5209d ago

I'm surprised Waypoints are in the game. They made such a big fuss about not having Town Portals, and now we'll be able to teleport in to our friends and waypoint around...

Make up your mind?

ThanatosDMC5209d ago (Edited 5209d ago )

It's because they're torn up with WoW integration than actually just staying with a Diablo type game. Even during Blizcon they would shut up about WoW when the panel was about D3.

I really hope less WoW and more Diablo influences. Also, i hope there arent any more "godly" items in D3 in which basically everyone had them like Ebotdz, Grief, and Enigma runewords.

Maticus5209d ago

OOO waypoints, good news indeed!

Dorjan5209d ago

Fair enough, if it sounded like a good idea but wasn't then scrap it!

Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.

I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.

All those games had to release without bugs.

Comebacks shouldnt be a thing in videogames. Just saying.

Diablo III - Still a Huge Draw in the Face of Diablo IV

Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.

Palitera388d ago

Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?

kevco33387d ago

Heh, yeah. There's no comparison in here! Its a commentary on how III is still very playable over a decade later.
