Someone said that the developers panel said the party sizes will be about 4-5 people. I was shocked when I heard this. I played Diablo 2 because of being able to play with 8 other people and rape Baal. I also have a ton of friends this is going to make playing quite difficult. I realize the game is still far from launch or even a beta but I think we should voice discontent with this.:mad:

I personally like smaller sized parties. With 8 players it was always some huge aoe clusterfuck. Less players allows for a lot more strategic elements and makes it harder.

Normally I myself would only party with about 4 other people, making a party of 5.
8 is great for pvp however.
