So, how are the new modes of gameplay?

Does the expansion let you jump straight to act 5? I'm picking up my collector's edition when I get off work this evening, but my current character is a lvl 57 monk in the middle of act 3 on my second playthrough. Hoping I don't have to play through Act 4 again to get to the new content...

The only way I was able to get eyefinity to work, in Diablo 3, is to run it in windowed fullscreen. If I tried non-windowed I didn't get the eyefinity resolution option. I also get the pop-in on the side monitors.
same... that's how I have been running it. I have not been using FlawlessWS but I might try it and see if it allows me to adjust the gamma and stuff... that's all locked out in windowed full screen.
I can't set that option in D3 itself, it's greyed out. I can't set it in D3prefs either, it just reverts or ignores it. It is 2 right? That was my understanding.
If anyone gets a hearthstone expert pack from ordering the game and don't want it i'd be happy to take it off your hands. I play the game and a couple expert card packs would help me out I know boxed versions get one not sure if you get one digitally.
There is no "installing" the expansion, its already installed, it was part of the last few patches.
well can anyone else confirm "unlocking" the expansion killed their multi monitor ability?

Finished grinding to 70 before kill the final boss for the first time so my guarantees legendary was a Lvl 70 one. Had to bump the difficulty down a few times to kill him too. Loved the fight and the challenge.
Now off to adventure mode to Lvl the crusader aka my new main character
Everything being account bound is officially the worst fucking thing they could have done. All the cry babies about the AH got their way.
I run mostly with my brother and a few friends.
"Hey I am short a particular material anyone got one" - NOPE ACCOUNT BOUND
"Hey I found this piece of gear you need last night" - NOPE ACCOUNT BOUND
"Hey can I borrow some gold" - NOPE ACCOUNT BOUND
"I need an emerald... Oh I got one... here errr" - NOPE ACCOUNT BOUND
Taking out the AH was fine, but taking out the ability to trade was fucking retarded. What was the point?
Removing the ability to trade kills the secondary market of people farming items and then selling them on forums and websites.
So what is the consensus now? If you install the expansion multi-monitor is gone? Because it still works for me now - but I have the box sitting here on my desk. I don't want to break my surround... mm.m.m.my precious.
whoa whoa Whats this about D3 and dual monitors? How do I enable it ? What do i have to do? I have duals.
Also on side note the Expansion is amazing, love it.. Beat act 5, got wiz to 69. adventure mode is killer, got some upgrades last night, got my crusader to 9.
Only downside currently not being able to trade stuff with people is really lame.
I'm having a lot of fun with the game since the big patch. I just can't stomach $40.00 for this..Unless I'm missing something as far as the features it brings to the table(which is highly possible), this is really nothing more than DLC. Considering how bad they fucked us over on release, and then gave consoles the superior version...I mean it took a long fucking time just to give us the game we paid for on release. The fact that they have the balls to ask $40.00 for RoS is yet another slap in the face. I'd love to play RoS and I'll admit that I'm hankering to play it.But with all the previous bullshit considered, this DLC should be gifted to us at no charge.

This game is fantastic, and for the bittersweet gulp of $40, it's totally worth it.
I was able to trade just fine with buddies last night...I'm not sure where the issue is? I must be missing something since I haven't really invested much time in this game since launch. Got PL'ed to 60 yesterday and went right into RoS content.
Was able to swap items back and forth with people. Not gems of course, but weapons, armor, etc.
I hear you man, loud and clear, believe me, but that's just not going to ever happen. This game is fantastic, and for the bittersweet gulp of $40, it's totally worth it, especially with a group of people (hit me up). I too wish it was free...but that's a make believe world that Blizzard never visits.
Well even without the expansion they already gave you the new loot system and a variety of other features and changes for free. Paying for RoS gets you one new act, 10 levels, and Adventure Mode.
I disagree. They didn't "GIVE" me anything for free. Their game was broke for 2 years. They are finally delivering the experience we paid full price for years ago. Don't get me wrong, I love the changes and am having a good time....Finally. But to rationalize all this as "well they are giving us something for free so I don't mind overpaying for the expansion" seems a little ridiculous.
Speaking to your original point - I believe this xpac rates somewhere in between DLC and a legit xpac. It's not to the level of a Baldurs Gate xpac, but it's way more than a single level or bunch of extra weapon skins. There was considerable time and effort put into designing the new act, new characters, new class, new skills (passive and active), new lore, new sound score (which is truly phenomenal), and a lot of end game play content. With a lvl 70 character, looking back at where the state of the game was at 60, it feels like they've opened it up quite a lot and offer so much more, and I couldn't imagine going back to that. It's almost every bit the xpac that D2 xpac was, and yet that never got complaints.
But to address your other comments for a second - I'm having a hard time believing you (and not a few others) feel so entitled to exactly the game that you envisioned yourself buying. Granted, they did promise a few things they never delivered on, but no one put a gun to your head and forced you to buy it. Many folks wait a day or two to read reviews to figure out if they *should* buy. But the fact that you feel like the game should have been crafted in exactly the way that suits you or others - and that Blizzard needs to keep doling out more content until you get it - is a little presumptuous, IMO.
