    Quote from Pit Stains

    I would have been fine, ecstatic, if it were just a normal in-game gold based AH. But like the OP said, Blizzard "legalizing" the ability to spend cash for items... that's a deal breaker. Sorry, but I just may not play the game for this very one reason. QQ and tell me to get over it, I don't care. You are the ones that will end up spending money on virtual items, and I'll be the one LOL'ing at you in the end.

    How will I be spending money? I will be free rolling in a real money AH? Eventually being able to get free games from blizzards store. While I LOL at you buying future games from your local store...

    Good luck accomplishing that. I'll laugh at all of you when you start to QQ because you can't compete against chinese farmers. You will most likely miss 2-3 Blizzard releases (which take 5+ years to launch) by the time you gather enough money to buy a game. Unless, of course, you are one of those dumb ***** that will sell a godly useful item just for profit instead of saving it for your own chars.

    "so at this point we don't know who it will be or in what regions they will operate."

    Nice! So if my region dont have support for it gg for me?


    Those explanations didnt solve anything. Who cares if we can have limited free auctions every week (in the best scenario), your offers will last for just one day or a little more. With so much competition with chinese farmers you will most likely wont be able to sell your items before your auction expires and you loose all your free auctions. The farmers in the other hand will gladly pay Blizzard to refresh their offers and keep them in the top list of offers. Blizzard is minimizing (maybe on purpose?) the gigantic quantity of farmers in this world, they can and WILL dominate the economy.

    Very clear and easy to understand. I'm sure this will benefit almost every person who reads this. +1


    The only thing that will make me buy this game if they dont remove the real money thing is a decent amount of free auctions every week. They will probably wont do that since one of their currently options is a lifetime X ammount of free auctions.

    Now I'm just waiting on the conspiracy theorists to start saying that blizzard will employ certain people to sell items and make money for them :hehe:

    You really, REALLY think Blizzard wont do that? Dear dear...

    posted a message on Skill Runes... Blizzard needs to clarify something more
    I didn't understand the polls very well.

    IMO equipping all rune types in a single skill is fun but takes away all the possible customization you can make for your chars. By allowing just 1 rune per skill we must choose our play stile, do we want a heavy damage single target spell or a weaker spell with large AoE?

    posted a message on Friendly Reminder: Don't forget to make sure you are opted in for D3 beta
    The golden question:

    Let's say my desktop account is chosen for the beta. Can I also play the it in my notebook? I ask that because my desktop is in my hometown and I study in another city. So if I can't use my notebook I'll have too play on weekends only.

    Gharbad who are you? Good guy Greg? Don't remind people of that. That way you raise your chance (and mine) to get a beta key LOL.

    Last year I bought a second copy of D2 so I could auto-mule in D2. Now I have 2 battlenet accounts, one with my desktop's system spec and another with my notebook's. Double chance FTW.

    Even if I don't get a beta key I'll download the beta in the next day and hope that someone crack the game. SC2' beta file was available almost instantaneously after its release. I'm glad I have an account in blackcats-games.

    posted a message on D3 = geared in 1/4 the time

    Official Blizzard Quote:



    Playing with others works exactly like Diablo II. Enemies are tougher, and you have a better chance at getting nicer loot.

    He didnt mentioned MORE loot but NICER loots, so maybe hes not talking about extra drops per monster, maybe its just like D2 where mobs have their base level increased when new players join the game, allowing new types of items to drop.

    posted a message on D3 = geared in 1/4 the time
    Bashiok (or someone from Blizzard) already said that a player in a 4 man group will find less loot per kill than playing solo. In the other hand a group can kill bosses way faster than a solo person, so its still good to party up for mf even with a lower drop rate.

    We won't see people gearing themselves 4 times faster in D3, at least not because of the individual drops.

    posted a message on Blizzard Press Event Questions
    Please pick my question, latin american players will be very pleased with diablofans if you do that :lol: !!!

    1: Will Blizzard also offer an english version (or a language pack) for the latin american version of Diablo 3? A large portion of LA players dislike translations/dubbings, forcing us to play in the US realms instead of the Latin American one. PS: Cain's voice is irreplaceable.

    posted a message on Am I in the minority?
    I cant see the problem with respec. People shouldnt be penalized because they missclicked or for making bad skill choices at the beggining of the game. If players cant respec they will just start to save their points intead of spending them at the early levels and thats lame. If you have a little OCD like you know whats the feeling for spending points in a bad skill.
    The only thing I don't like is people being abble to respec many times in a row. IMO respec must be granted as a quest reward or something (a long quest btw).

    posted a message on Seeing another players gear?
    Making the best build is not a hard thing. Even if you managed to create the perfect build someone else will also plan the same build anyway (remember, D3 will have a huge amount of players). The build will most likely be available to everyone in the internet after a few months so I don't see the point in hiding your build for that motive.

    The maim problem is people inspecting you just before an arena match to know your skills or griefers making fun of your noob gears and build. But those problems can be easily solved by letting each player decide if they want to show or hide their builds.

    posted a message on BlizzCon Ticket Prices
    Just because the "Ticket price doesn't matter compared to travel and other costs" doesn't mean they are not overpriced. I really find hard to believe they don't profit from Blizzcon. It's ok for them to profit, nothing against that, I just don't like cheap lies just to excuse their prices.

    posted a message on Attribute point assignment
    Quote from Daemaro

    The problem with choosing how you spend them was people just put 80% into vitality, and I think that made for pretty boring gameplay.

    No, that's not the problem. The only reason why people spend 90% of their stats with vitality in D2 is because the atribute system is not balanced. Would you make a base energy sorc if energy had a 0,5% extra spell damage per point? (Like it was in D3 in the beggining)

    The only reason why I like auto stats is because i dont have to waste my time brainstorming with the "fine tuning" of the atributes. I can do that with talisman and gems that will most likely result in big stat changes.

    They cold add something like lineage 2 item enchanting. You can improve the item def/dmg many times but theres a chance to break the item if you enchant too much.

    That way players will break many high end gears when they try to enchant and that would prevent (at least a little) the item inflation after years of gameplay.

    posted a message on SC2 Beta Officially Goes Live
    I wonder if people that owns a copy of starcraft have better chances do win a beta key. The only games I have a registry in b.net is Diablo 2, LOD, Warcraft 3 ROC and FT.

    I hope I have better luck when D3 beta starts.

    posted a message on bind-on-equip
    Whoa, thats bad!!!

    I can agree with bindings but not BoE. IMO Blizzard could bind your high end items to your ACCOUNT, not your char. That way you would be free to move the item freely in the case you want to tranfer that godly melee boosting ammy from your barb to your monk i.e.

    I know that this way people will start make a lot of tranfers/"re-tranfers" betwen their chars but for me that is better than equipping an item and some time later find another better one and have to destroy the first one.

    Its going to be like destroying a mara's kaleidoscope because you found a godly lvl 95 rare ammy.
