Seeing how the game is now even more playable (to be honest, I did not even have that much of a problem with the earlier versions), who is actually playing this now?
I have just finished bumrushing a friend through normal mode in order to get them to roll a elite mode toon with me (cause elite mode is where it's at), anyone else fancy playing with us?
For those of us just joining the infotrain:
Guardians have been nerfed a tiny bit. I am playing one for the first time in elite mode though, and they are still solid as a rock. Blademasters have remained largely untouched.
Marksman has been 'modified'. Have experimented a little (seeing as both my elite main and normal main are marksmen), Rapid Fire is now useless, and cannot be combo'd with multishot. Crit proc skills are now no longer passive, you have to use them as your primary fire method (they all have synergies now though). Nades and strikes have been uber buffed, and have synergies like increasing the radius/damage/time active. Beacon was nerfed a tiny bit, sniper has been buffed a lot (example: you can now move, albeit slowly, while sniping) and Multishot is now on the end of the passive crit tree, so less points wasted in the now useless rapid fire tree.
Evokers have been buffed and a lot of their spells reworked, some summoner skills as a result follows suit and also the witch doctor has been fixed.
Ingame mail, including sending of items, is now available. Chat system/friend system has been reworked. Buff display is a lot easier to understand now. PARTIES ARE NO LONGER BUGGED TO SHIT. Raid content and level adjusting areas added for subs. Nightmare mode has been scaled properly. High detail models displayed for party members. Probably also a shitton more that I have forgotten to list. Eitherway things are looking up.
