I know I said it on the forums as well - the only way they would balance gear is if they did a Guild Wars style system of PvP specific gear. But they insisted that all it took was a simple MMR system and "somehow" things would balance themselves out, and continued to promise people they would use their PvE gear. Which was obviously a ploy just to sell gear on RMAH. As long as you use PvE gear, PvP is going to be unbalanced, but you know what? Nobody cares! Noone expects D3 to be balanced, ESPECIALLY balanced for competitive reasons? The only people who expect that are the retards who got D3 in to this mess. The PvE isnt balanced either and the game is supposedly balanced around PvE! All people want is D2 PvP functionality, because that's all they expected from the series. But apparently that's too much to ask. Instead we get 1v1... the very most unbalanced form of PvP there is.... | ||

Diablo 3 is hard to call a bad game, because I like many others played it a lot on launch and had a ton of fun. Once the sheen wore off it though the problems started to really reveal themselves in a big way, which is a shame. I think it's pretty safe to say at this point that Diablo 3 is a good game, but also a game that whiffed on it's potential by a country mile and as it stands it's probably the only black mark on the entire Blizzard lineup. It's funny, when a developer known for only putting out solid gold gets away from what made their games so good and tries to appeal to a casual audience what happens. Bioware did the same thing with Dragonage 2 and that along with TOR are their big black marks, it's kind of sad in a way. Lets just hope that Blizzard has learned from D3 and moves on. | ||

If Blizzard just came out and said the game would be balanced around PvE and there would be PvP on the side (even arena's) but that they would not actively balance it things would have been fine. There's really not very many ways for a hack and slash game like D3 to be fun in PvE and balanced in PvP, and it certainly wasn't going to happen with how dumbed down the game was.

However when I am being told "We are not releasing PvP because it is not fun", I get pissed. This is a plain and blatant LIE. Just like "we are nerfing Wizard's Critical Mass proc ratios because the new legendary items will have awesome abilities that procs" That was a very obvious LIE to nerf Wizard's CM. I would be OK if they simply said "Wizard is more powerful than we intend it to be atm so we are simply nerfing it". But no, they choose to LIE to us because they are so arrogant and know everything better than us that they simply cannot admit they are incapable of doing something properly. | ||

I would much rather be killing other players (or getting raped by them) vs. still doing the same fucking act3 run that we've been doing since the day the game came out. We literally have not gained a single thing to do. 8 months of the same shit and they say TDM is boring. Lolz. To be fair, that was the D2 experience as well. But atleast you had a reason to level up new characters now and then, either after a ladder reset or because you wanted to try a new build. | ||

I think people just went to the fields outside Act 1 for duels, and obviously ganking could happen anywhere if you weren't quick enough to flee. | ||
