Is it actually ready? (Score 1)

After playing the Stress Test I really wonder about the quality of the final product. If Battle.net was unable to maintain 100,000 individuals in one section of the world, how will they perform when you have millions of users all over the world? Baring in mind that the server status has improved drastically in the past two weeks, is it really likely that Bnet will be able to support to proposed load? As for the graphics engine, I realize that the ST was limited by colour/detail to keep it small, but in comparison to other games... even Balder's Gate, the graphics are mediocre at best. I'm really intested to see how Direct3D/Glide is improved in the final copy. The best thing about D2 is Blizzard's striving to keep cheating out. Diablo I became extremely unfun when everyone was duping weapons and making it crappy for everyone else. I hope that D2 remains fair for as long as possible for everyone's enjoyment. -CM
