Well, anyone who played diablo ii and enjoyed fighting with friends is going to enjoy this video:
http://www.ign.com/videos/2010/10/23/diablo-3-pvp-gameplay

Also the new "Demon Hunter" class video follows up that video.

It is pretty impressive to say the least. I'm sold so far.

The competetive scene in Diablo has always been rather minuscule as of compared to the Starcraft and Warcraft franchises. Blizzard knows this and is seeking a change.

Good idea, but the foundation of the game seems a bit lacking. D2 just moved a lot faster, with people hitting fcr breakpoints so that they would have like 7 or 8 frame casts. From all of the D3 videos I've seen, it just seems slow.

Sure they can have Arena PvP, but please dont let the game 'balance' around it. I beg you.

I agree that it doesnt look really fast-paced. Kinda bothers me.

I for one am glad that they decided on arenas, I just hope they won't want to balance the skills around it.
There were 2 things that I hated about Diablo II:
1) Hackers, bots and cheats
2) TPPK on hardcore.

I'm glad I will be able to play the game without always looking behind my back to see if some retard doesn't want to start shit up -.-

Arena is nothing more than a pen for idiots to gather, I hate the whole system. You fight among monsters and you die alone out in the world with nobody else but your foe laughing at your demise.

Imo hackers, botters and glitchers/exploiters made the game for what it was. Everyone can remember the old patches where you simply would get laughed at if you DIDEN'T had a maphack. Sure things like drophacks where irritating but your a fool for falling for that in the first place. Also anyone grinding HC knew that he could be !@#&*^ any moment of the day and lose his life project It's just my opinion tho' but leveling/economic-wise the botters really helped even for the people that diden't had any of that stuff. And about the glitches/exploits... well they shouldn't be there in the first place nor for that long time after acknowledgement of the problem.

Ontopic: I'm a bit sceptic about Diablo 3 arena's for one side i'm really pumped about it for the competitve and fun side, on the other side.. nothing can beat A1 Blood Moor duels. The chaotic fights, gold stealing, NKing, TKing, bm chars etc. etc. Already pumped about it just by bringing it back up.. maybe time to grab my smiter for a duel sometimes again

I get my competitive/eSport fix from SC2, so I was more looking forward to D3's pve/bosses/rpg/fun hack and slash aspects. That said, I'm all for it if its well done and could be good if they really commit to it.

Yeah by helping you mean every character anyone ever made could have ridiculously op rw's with no effort. If they have stuff that op in d3 i hope they go back to 1 in 40 million drop chance runes required for it with no duping.

if you can see what the hell is going on you've got diablo pvp wrong.

Maybe that was just my bad connection though.

at least the graphic would appeal to some of my friends who really disliked WoW because of its cartoony style.

Sure any rune you've been trading the last couple of years from public trades, private trades or d2jsp had a 90% chance to be duped and poof. My point was just that thereby runewords where cheap to make (once attached to a runeword they where permed) and thereby people that diden't bot could have anything they wished for as well. Sure things where less unique, guess it depends on what way you look at the game tho'.. But i don't mind everyone having some decent char, in the end the REAL unique things where pre-patch bugged items.. And those WHERE expensive, duped or not

While the graphics are obviously far superior to d2 it also looks a bit slow to me.

Discussion is great but I'd advise reserving actual judgments for when we get our hands on it.

Compare that to this (or any D2 PVP video, really, just took the top result) and you'll see why D3's PVP is awful.



Edit: on second thoughts, that's a pretty terrible example, yeah, look at what Grack posted on p2.
