Did they have a beta the week prior to release ? I thought the second beta was several weeks before ? EDIT oh that ' s right yeah there was sixsiegeopenbetanovemberI remember being very nervous about this . One week before release on Dec 1 and it still had huge match making issues . <| sep |> The effective range is far too high . Is it awesome to use on Suez or Argonne ? Absolutely . But it is probably good to get balanced really quickly . Enjoy it while you can . <| sep |> They brought styrofoam instead of reusable containers . WHY . <| sep |> The first one . <| sep |> My opponent had Antonio Brown and Jordan Reed AMA <| sep |> That is sexy as fuck . I have one coming from Amazon on Tuesday . Cant wait <| sep |> But you only need 1 mule per type of these new items and I think game allows up to 24 characters on 1 account and as many free accounts as you want , it also allows you to run up to 2 clients simultaneously . If you don ' t pick up crap div cards single mule is enough . If you don ' t pick up low tiers of essences single mule is enough . I played with mules for quite some time before I bought first supporter pack and I wouldn ' t say it was impossible . Obviously not as efficient or comfortable as having 12 tabs and currency tab that I now have btw I think between 10 and 16 more than enough for most people , more than that is just an overkill for hoarders and standard players but definetely possible including doing all challenges and all content . Honestly , after D 2 basic 4 tabs are MUCH easier to manage . 24 character limit with bigger inventories against 8 characters with smaller inventories , big shared stash vs having to stay in town for 10 minutes so private game is not closed when you leave , make as many accounts as you want and able to log in to 2 accounts simultaneously in D 2 you needed to have CD keys for mule accounts to log in simultaneously with main account , stackable currency etc .
