There are so many well balanced games built for competitive play out there that I can't fathom why anyone would try and say " to hell with blizzard we'll play this competitively anyway!" I mean, it's going to motly be whoever had the dankest items wins, and with a RMAH that just means money wins. Any sort of pvp is going to be completely skillless mind numbing fun, or griefing attempts.
I'm under the personal opinion anyone insisting D3 should be/will be/is a competitive pvp game are the people who are unable to compete in actual competitive balanced platforms of skill and just want to say "I spent X more money/time than you thus I am the better player" instead of being capable of winning through skill. It's the casuals crutch- it doesnt matter how skilled you are just how long you farm.
I just don't see why these people want so desperately to make diablo 3 something it's not.
Dunno about you but skill is a big factor... guess you never PvP'd in anything before. A perfect example is WoW, people buy characters and they play like rtards, just because you can buy gear doesn't mean you will be awesome.
this comparison isn't relevent when gear in wow when there is a set statting for pvp gear and easy ways to get it.
diablo items are radomized with affixes. There are certain to be overwhelming broken stat combinations on some items, and items that are so far ahead of anything else comparably that you would never see in wow pvp. I'm excited for you to be 100%-0%
killed by a demonhunter with one of the early windforces and still sit and say "this is competitive and balanced pvp!"
And if that happens I'll be like meh, guess I'll just play more PvE. Every class will have the chance to do some OP move to destroy someone else, thats Diablo PvP. The difference is the skilled players will win more often then the nub who bought his shiney bow because they figure a way to get by it.

Playing Diablo since 97. I know nothing and having nothing good to say, I be a troll.
Ya I have been post all morning and I was getting worked up lol. It was directed mostly to the PvE'ers. I stand by what I said though.
Fair enough, I'm more for PvE but I like PvP on the side. I like going to these topics mearly for the entertainment and even sometimes learn something.

I am the only one here on this entire website that has played the latest version of PvP. I am the only one who has any idea of what they are talking about. You guys keep comparing Diablo 3 to Diablo 2 and WoW because you don't know what you are talking about. It was very fun, very smooth, very balanced and had a whole lot of strategy and teamwork and that's how we won 17 out of 20 games. Have you played the PvP? Let me know. Are you going to for the rest of this year? No. I am tired of arguing with people who don't know what they are talkIng about. They haven't played the PvP but are all of a sudden experts on it? Why don't you go back to your PvE forums and let me tell the PvP'ers how it really is.
Guess not everyone is as privileged like you, this is why forums exist, to discuss the topic until people can actually experience it for them selves. After that its just mechanics, theory-crafting, and builds. Chill bro.
