After 10 minutes of trying I got onto a server, but now when I try to "create hero" I get a 300008 Error (The request timed out). Has anyone gotten past this and made their character yet?
nope.
no
No
Why didn't they anticipate the volume of players. This is becoming a frequent problem with developers.
You got that far? I just time out whenever I actually auth
Still installing.

This happens with almost every MMO/Online game. It would be smarter to do regional releases of the game so that people all log in at their midnight or whatever slowing traffic, but I don't really know if they can do that.
[QUOTE]Welcome to Diablo III! The fight for Sanctuary has begun.
Please note that due to a high volume of traffic, login and character creation may be slower than normal. If you're unable to login to the game or create characters, please wait and try again. We've temporarily taken our Battle.net websites offline and launched more servers to accomodate for the traffic. We hope to resolve these issues as soon as possible and appreciate your patience.[/QUOTE]
A friend of mine got done with act 3 a few hours ago, so he got in just fine.
Why should you even need to connect to Blizzards servers if you want to play single player...

Because developers like to stay inside of their little bubble pretending everything is fine.
They didn't fix a very gamebreaking thing, and it runs like shit on my system as well. ArmA 2 runs better.
Diablo 3 = shit.
