Well I gave up, so sick of all the problems that I asked for a refund. Still waiting but they should it will be with me soon.

What problems were you having?

Cleared normal. I think I played for about 9 hours today... Damn that Diablo addiction I remember all too well. Time for a break from games.

And I definitely called out of work today.

Game plays perfectly fine with a controller. It's not really that much harder to aim. I wouldn't use it for RTS, but I think it is fine for Diablo

Here is my setup on a PS3 controller

R1 - Left mouse click
R2 - Right mouse click
R3 - Q (potions)
Square, triangle, X, O - hot keys 1,2,3,4
L1 - Shift (hold)
L2 - Z (zoom)
Start - ESC
Select - J (quests)
Left Joystick - Mouse
Left d-pad - I (inventory)
Right d-pad - S (skills)
Up d-pad - T )town portal)
down d-pad - alt (to see items)

I was interested in giving this a shot for the hell of it, and could not figure out how to get the mouse working with the joystick. Do you mind posting your CFG file, or at least hinting as to what I do to make it work? The closest I got was being able to move the pointer left and right. I couldnt find any tuts online that specifically explained how to set up the program.

Keep in mind that this is technically for a Xbox 360 controller. For Diablo III I am running MotionInJoy to provide drivers for the PS3 controller, and I have it set to be recognized as a Xbox 360 controller.

I could try to do another one without using MotionInJoy drivers and see if it is still possible.

Well, my copy finally got here. Guaranteed 3-day shipping my ass, and they managed to scratch the front of the box.

Does having a companion around cut any exp you get?

Perfect! that held the key to why I couldnt get it to work! Thanks.

I don't believe so, monsters get harder, so I believe the experience goes up as well. From what I felt, it seems that it took a longer time to solo my Monk to lvl 12 then it did to co-op my Barb to lvl 15. Perhaps it just feels more fast paced with 3 people pulling you in different directions.

I think he means running with one of the hirelings vs. running solo.
