If you have been trying to get into the Diablo IV early access open beta test that started at noon eastern time today, you are definitely not the only one. Indeed, VG247 reports that the game's servers have been slammed as tons of gamers try to sign into the beta of Blizzard's fantasy action-RPG sequel.

Many users have to wait in a long virtual queue, according to the report, and even if they managed to get into the beta servers, many are then disconnected and are put into the back of the line.

For its part, Blizzard has posted a message on the Diablo Twitter page stating that players should expect bugs and other issues with the open beta test.



The Twitter page also has links to the current known issues with the beta, one for PC users and other other for console players. Here are those issues as of this writing:
