I searched for any topics and didn't see anything on the first page so I figured it wouldn't hurt to start one.
I was wondering if there are going to be ladder seasons in DIII, like in DII.
I did a quick google search and didn't see much info on it, so I am sure if anyone knows it would be one of you guys.
Secondly, what do you guys think of a Ladder system in DIII? Personally, I am stuck between whether I would want a ladder season or not. I mean it sucks having to throw away a character I have been playing for X amount of time, but it keeps the economy fresh and gives you a reason to re-level characters with friends. It's also cool for people who started later to get on an equal level with the hardcore players, at least for a short while. What do you guys think? What are the pros and cons of ladder seasons, do you want them, do you have any better ideas?
I believe it was stated that the only reason why D2 required ladder resets was because of the poor economy. D3 will have a balanced economy so there should be no need for that. There might be ladder resets anyway, but I doubt they will wipe your characters, only remove their place on the ladder.
Thanks for the fast reply Ophion. Do you like that there will be no ladder?
BoE and salvaging will help remove items from the economy. For everything that stays, a good trade system like an AH can help that. AH's are great because the prices are user generated. So the value of items can fluctuate over time to match supply and demand. And it makes gold the universal currency which will help as well.
I think looking at how Blizzard has done it with wow, I'm confident that the economy will be fine in Diablo.

Without duping the economy won't get as messed up as in D2, so you won't need complete wipes like that. Especially since gold is going to be a huge factor, and its easy to remedy an overabundance of gold with more gold sinks instead of resets. More frequent expansions could also help once a large amount of people have high end gear.
