he said in an interview (dont remember the exact word) that for NOW they are concentrating polishing and finishing up the game, the PVE portion. PVP is a side game. So they disregard it for now, but perhaps later they will add more stuff, the game is not even out yet, not even in open beta and alot of players who never did play the game (including me) are on the forum defending/flamming/whinning/cheering for aspect of the game, some of it not even finished and saying "blizzard this..." "blizzard that.." "oh they lost my trust with that change!" and everything like that.
Just wait and see, i think the game will be kick ass
Also I do with they left world pvp in. I personally enjoyed Pking, especially in hardcore. I even got a rush out of getting pk'd in hardcore. Or even in softcore. It didnt bother me and was a welcome change to a mundane lvling run.
The first guy I pk'd in hardcore was my very first adrenaline rush i ever got in a game. I only got that feeling playing online poker since. I pk'd some lvl 8 sorceress with my lvl 14 bowazon. Running him down after giving him the waypoint was a thrill. Sorry if i seem like a douche it just was.
I also remember a light hearted guy me and a buddy killed. His name was "NumbaOne". We ganked him and he came back into the game as a lvl 1 with the name, "StillNumbaOne"
But I personally dont think arena style works with Instagib diablo pvp. Tdm will though.
but what you enjoyed perhaps the other one didnt. Its what people call griefing i guess. Its the kind of pvp that blizzard dont want and i can understand. Often its only one sided fun, where in arena, you chose to be there, not being tricked in clicking the swords. Its like many mmo where you go there, find someone tagged and attack him, often they dont even defend themself. They werent prepared? they were afk? They dislike pvp? there is so many reasons. This is called griefing because its one sided fun, you and youre epeen.
I sound in this post like a pve-carebear but i do love pvp alot but i hate when it turn into bullshit. I love having competition, win or lose i dont care, i want to have a nice fight and an adrenaline rush. I dont want pointless spawn camping, i dont want to fight noob that dont know what they do or people that didnt even want to pvp and let themself die, this is children pvp. I want real action, where i need to work, min/max , find strategy, this is pvp. D2 pvp i tought was the most sucky of em all (gonna get flammed) There was non-written rules but hey, lot of people didnt care. Sometime it was a potion fest, running around all the frickin plain, playing hide and seek for youre target because they are drinking potion to survive, town portal, insults etc. What is the fun? i did find some people who were really interesting to fight but was mostly boring and lacking in fun.
that is why im at least please of the effort shown in D3, there will be a ground with other people THAT WANT TO PVP.
SFJake : you do need to remember that diablo was always PVE game, not a pvp one. Even diablo 2 was ALL about pve, with the option to be attackable. Its the players who made d2 dueling so popular, Blizzard never encouraged it or never balanced it and it seem everyone enjoyed their time no? Even diablo 1 with all the pk there was pvp where blizzard didnt really think of or balanced it.
I dont fear D3 pvp for that reason, they put an arena where i can bash on people, not making overrated duel with fake social conditions to it just outside the rogue camp, getting insulted by 9 years old who lost. I think it will be enjoyable and well perhaps even make friends since its group pvp ... or youll be stuck with a retard versus a premade where you get pwned badly. But anyway, this time blizzard took some time to make it, to please us, even giving vanity reward for it. It is a huge step up from D2. Perhaps some wont agree but at this moment, D3 look phenomenal. Some changes to runes/skills that i thought was bad, when i understood their changes and why was brilliant. Just give it time , lets get more information on it.
I think in one of the answer to pvp on diablofans, Jay said that PERHAPS! there will be a special zone where you enter it and turn pvp, where you can duel. It is not implemented but perhaps, wait and see.
@everyone mostly : Most of you are displeased about the pvp and they say they dont care about it blabla... Of course they dont!! they told it , they wrote it, they said it in public at blizzcon, its everywhere. Its a pve game, pvp is like a small added bonus, like a bonus game when you wait for load time. People on different diablo board are all mad/qq/cry about it. They say it everytime someone bring pvp. Dont be mad that they dont add different stuff for pvp, its not the purpose of the game, they said it at the start and they keep saying it, its not a pvp game. Its like wishing for pvp in mario galaxy 2, it wont happen. Here it does happen, they gave some attention too it but so many people want it turned into a e-sport, the game is not about it. Dont come crying if the barbarian is overpowered, they dont care and its fine like that because they said it. Its not like aion where the ranger was OP and nobody did a single thing about it when its supposed to be balanced or even warhammer online. Here they dont care and its ok because we are supposed to get it, they - dont - care. Not in a bad way, i really dont mind but dont get all worked out when you KNEW FROM the start that there wouldnt be great pvp in it
