Thread: D3G Announcement: New Project Launched!

New York, October 25, 2008 -


Greetings Fellow Fans,

Admin of D3Gaming here, i wanted formally announce today and reveal the next step of D3G and the D3G Network. I want everyone to understand why this will be your #1 one stop shop for all Diablo 3 Related Needs. Today we announce....

Code:

D3Bazaar.com

D3Bazaar.com is a Diablo 3 Searchable Index 
dedicated to you, the fans. It will include 
a list of all unique sets/common items in 
the game that you can search through and 
see the stats to before you trade/equip it. 

The website will also feature a ton of 
features not seen on any other website.
Some of these unique features i cannot 
mention at this time, but as the time draws 
closer to it's opening, we will let out details 
little by little :)

Today we also ask you to post to this thread 
and tell us what would you like to see in this 
new website. We feel the community is what 
will be using these tools, so we might as well 
let the community have some say on the tools offered.

Reply to this thread with your ideas.

Awesome idea. I can't wait to see how it turns out (hopefully good).

This will be a useful tool before and after the game is released.

Very cool. How about a nice BIG icon on the forum/home page for the link to the Bazaar? I'm a fan of obviousness when it comes to important/often-used features.

Also cool notice and icon with the sword/axe/shield.

-For tools to actually use the bazaar and I'm sure you've thought of this already, I'd like to see a searchable database that sorts items by Class, type, level-to-equip and range of levels* DPS...and various other stats.

*say I wanted to search for items I will be able to wear from levels 60-66

-Hi-res icons of each weapon

-An option to search items with a priority system: 1. DPS 2. Resist 3. +skills and this would bring up a list of items with those 3 stats as the most important first in the list...being able to sort by each one of course. Maybe highlight the items that have the best Xmod of each priority.

-*most wanted* I think this might be a little ambitious but what I thought would be cool is to virtually equip your character before you do it... so you would be able to select each item and see what the total stat boost would be. This would save a bunch of paperwork

The Arreat Summit has a good layout already but searchable makes it that much faster I like that it basically shows the items from worst->best which makes searching for items a breeze if you know what you're looking for.

I realized that most of this would apply if there is a large amount of unique and preset items but then I was thinking about crafted/rare items...

-A crafting guide with an option to search for: Xresist, pierce attack, increased attack speed, attack rating. The results would show the recipes that include 2 or more of your searches.

That's my 2+ cents for now

these are good suggestions. i'm taking notes as it's being built. more suggestions are welcomed. everything is on the table.

A comment box on each item so users using the website can tell where they got the item, where it dropped, and how much it usually sells for, and how much its worth in gold ect...

id like the ability to see another persons character. such as what they wear and what skills they have.

I like the comment box idea..once the drop rate and location is confirmed that can be posted in an 'official' format or w/e.

for prices i used to use this site:
Gamescafe.net - Community and Strategies - Prices Guide V2.0 - S3 US EAST Ladder

user's input i think too so it worked well

-Multiple users say the same price[range] that get's bumped to the top of the comments/prices...users must have an account here for credibility purposes?

I think ill be good to see which boss drops what for those mf runs late at night : )

I like all the ideas suggested in this thread!

1. Make it obvious and clean. Don't go the Yahoo route and just stick things here and there.
2. Don't hide the features. If somebody wants to see the stats of an item don't make them go through a few pages to do so.

an absolute must is to have player ranking for items in the normal 5 star fashion, that way for a new player they can see easily and understand how good the item the just found or looking to buy with no hassle, absolute must, it would be so helpful!

D3baazar auction house also, just like ebay person puts up an item and time till sold and people place bids which the person could shift through or have a ranking system.

Will u be able to buy items for real money? cos it kinda sounds like that
