Starts 12pm PDT, which i assume is 10pm tonight, perhaps someone can confirm.

Get your client downloaded now.

That page says 21:01 CEST which I believe is GMT+2, so might be 7pm, either way it's sometime later tonight, so if anyone else is game get it DL'd and lets party up 

MilkmanHero#2116 is my battletag and my password is a low security one I used repeated twice, I'm putting this here as I'm going drinking at 4pm

Good luck to anyone that actually manages to get on, they are being hammered and have capped the number of people that can enter until they sort the servers out, Bacon has given up, I'll probably give up trying soon too for tonight, might try again in the morning.

When you get in, don't forget to go into options and ramp up the settings as well as change to European Battle.net servers

I'm in, Clocked0Ne#1951


edit: Back out Got d/c'd but its addictive fun as expected, I seem to only be finding crappy loot though but maybe that's just how the beta rolls.

Completed. 

I'll finish it tonight, doubt I'll see anyone else on there then over the beta but hopefully there'll be some party questing opportunities when it goes live

  I've tried to get on to check this out a few times now, at various times today, 3003 error every time

Don't do this or you get 3003 error that I did, you HAVE to use 'the americas'

I got in no problem yesterday on it after 'some' attempts, maybe I'll try the Americas if I hit problems (I guessed EU would be less laggy though)

Just download the US Client and don't touch anything, it works right away, i'm downloading again for a 2nd time to give it another go on a few more characters later.

Anyone knwo what time this finishes later?

This was far too good really, despite being a bit easy (but then this is low level I guess) I liked the cheeky touches like some of the noises being identical to d1/2, if you chuck something on the floor from your inventory it takes me back 10 years to when I spent summers on it, problem is I don't want it to time sink all my time away so am hesitant in buying it!

I was hesitant also but with the ability to link Paypal to the Auction House and basically sell what you have farmed or boss drops etc it could be worthwhile
