What I'm for;
Arenas in general seem like they will be a blast. And I'll say I'd support custom matches (who against who, rather than your team against random) because that would be fun.
What I'm not against, but really could care less;
A showable PVP rating
Spectator mode
Replays
What I'm against;
PVP balance that hurts PVE in any way
PVP only gear and / or
Gear / skills that change in pvp or pve
Blizzard: " We do not want D3 to be an Esport, ever." (not the *exact* quote but I'm sure someone has posted it already) Kinda shoots down this whole thread right? I mean the discussion of making D3 into an Esport can and will always go on, but there's no point past trying to get a couple features in.
Personally? I'd take the arena and like it lol. The fact they are dedicating that much to PVP is awesome as it is=P
Edit; Here's the quote just in case:
I know you don't plan to support Diablo 3 to be a eSport - If the commnunity wants it to become a eSport(without the implied balance), would you support it with replays/spectator mode and more ?
JayWilson: No. We don't want Diablo 3 to become an E-sport. It's OK to have PVP just for fun. Our focus is on our PVE game, and we want it to stay there.
It even says right there, even IF the community wanted it, they aren't going to do it. /this damn thread
already.

You can't list unidentified items on any of the Auction Houses. You can trade it to friends by opening the trade window or dropping it on the ground though. -

Molster posted a message on Diablo 100% unlock - Everyone go like everything on the reveal websitePosted in: Diablo III General DiscussionQuote from XagoI've always thought that the unlocks were revealed at Blizzard's will, they just want you to think doing stuff on the reveal site actually furthers the progress.
No, liking crap and stuff DOES move it faster. -

We're going to be doing a live gameplay broadcast on our DiabloFans stream for launch day, May 15th!

junbk posted a message on Met Bashiok at PAX East- Some Inferno related clarifications!I had the pleasure of meeting Bashiok (and his big bushy mustache) at PAX East earlier today and he was nice enough to answer some of my Inferno difficulty related questions. I didn't record our conversation and these are not absolute direct quotes so you'll have to trust me, haha.Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
-As of now the maximum monster level in Inferno is specifically 64, not just "somewhere around 65(?)" as mentioned in his Inferno post.
Not mindblowing but interesting
-I asked him about how in what I saw of a tiny bit of what looked like Hell or Inferno footage in the Blizzcon 2011 Gameplay & Auction House Panel the monsters moved REALLY fast and would not just attack the player from where they approached but actually run past him/her and sort of do a quick slingshot and attack from an unexpected direction (http://www.youtube.c...JfTfktc#t=3077s is the footage). It took a while for him to process what I was getting at but he did (re)confirm that monsters move faster in later difficulties and that they will have behaviors like 'stop for a bit, then come at you'.
-I mentioned the "internal bets" on how many "months" it would take to beat Inferno. He now believes that it's now a "few weeks"; not months. This was after I pressed him on the whole 'what if the person goes through the auction house and accelerates his gearing that way'.
-He's not aware of any real changes in health globe mechanics (drop rates, heal amounts) across the difficulties. He did mention the passive skills that help with globes- I imagine those will help quite a bit in endgame.
-He reiterated that you need to build up your defenses for Inferno via gear and skill choices. No surprise there.
-I asked him about the whole "bullet hell" mechanics (mentioned at Blizzcon 2010 panel I believe?) where you have to sort of dodge projectiles to avoid damage (I would imagine there would be a lot of them in Inferno). He said there are certainly such things but stressed that it's really more about getting the best gear and building up your defense than that.
-Right now in internal testing he said people are finding endgame solo play more preferable to party play. He attributes this to the scaling of monsters to the amount of players not making things any easier (implying that if one person messes up and dies, it just makes it harder on everyone else). I asked him if he thinks people will make 4 player parties and try to create "roles" with their builds and successfully tackle Inferno that way. He was agreeable to the concept.
I don't think he was totally prepared for the questions I suddenly threw at him but he was great (and patient with me despite all the stuff happening around with the D3 line and a couple other guys who were talking with him)
I also want to mention that the Runic guys (who were standing around on their side of the D3/T2 area)
are awesome and Torchlight II looks and plays great too! It's a great time to be an action RPG fan. -

ScyberDragon posted a message on Explanation for gray/white itemsSo, my girlfriend was playing diablo 3. New to the franchise, she was picking up every gray and white item to look at them. After a while she asked "why are they all cracked or broken?" after just a quick pause she answered herself, "oh, because I'm getting it off a dead guy. That makes sense".Posted in: Off-Topic
I cracked up. After 15 years of playing and dumping off the gray and white trash, I finally had a logical reason behind all of those crap drops. I had just never though about it before and thought it was hilarious when she reasoned why there was so much crap drops in diablo. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

And unless blizzard owns youtube or goggle i see no reason for this thread even being created.
Am i missing something that is supposed to be very obvious here?

This was news to me, which made me quite happy, act 1 is not worth it at the moment, this will bring back a more interesting mix and it will make collecting the keys for the infernal machine more enjoyable.
EDIT: Added these 2 links to clear up any confusion about level 60 players getting XP in inferno.

Seems to me that some people just want the game to hand them great items with minimal effort.

1. You posted this in the monk forum, we have a section dedicated to trading.
2. You didn't state which server this is on, which means i cant just move it to the EU or US section.
Repost this in the appropriate trading section.
CLOSED.

Yeah... cause games in the same series never share any features....
Looking forward to this patch, especially the monster power part.
