its funny that everyone writing in these posts are low post ppl (not excluding me lol) trying to write "constructive posts" for a beta key! I see right thru you guys!! haha... give up, the chances are 1 in a 1,000,000 =p
Hm, In my head you'd want to make the "in Dota game" bonuses large enough to offset gear differences for the most part. Of course doing something like +100% dmg could just aggravate the gear differences - maybe increasing dmg done by large flat amounts with "dota gear" would offset gear differences better. They might also have to do something like make it to where you can't switch your abilities once your in "dota" - making the abilitie/rune differences the main difference in "characters" - Most Dota type characters aren't that different from each other until you get to their ability choices anyway, so I don't see the game suffering from lack of character diversity (at least not any more than any d3 pvp would).
MOBA games are competitive, but that doesn't mean they have to be any more competitive than "normal" pvp. It's not so much that we want Diablo Dota to be geared towards really hardcore people - in fact I think it would be more of a success the more casual people could pick it up. It's more that we just want more types of pvp in d3, and D3DOTA seems like a fun stylistic choice. Let's put it this way - how many people play in WoW's Arena Matches (I'm not even 100% sure that's what their called, I havn't done them since Burning Crusade) compared to it's Battlegrounds. It doesn't have to be eSports quality, to be fun
Well, sir, Starcraft dota is coming out very soon. And it is combining the intellectual properties of all blizzard universes. Witch Doctor Vs Thrall? Check. Arthas Vs. Kerrigan? Check. Muradin? Nova? Stiches? Check. I'm sure they'll add characters like Diablo, Tyreal, and well, any other characters they want.
Basically, I think it's better they make them seperate games. Gives them much more to work with.
alot of unimaginative people in here.... i thought of this idea 3 years ago and, immediately people say its a bad idea... obviously people love this type of moba gameplay, obviously its fun ass hell, and will basically make this game never die..
i dont understand all these people crying over pve.. farm gear for hours for what? to show off to cpu ai? do nothing? idiots, it would be way more rewarding to level up your character to battle real people in competitive games, like fighting games..
and to do it in dota style would be amazing and fun, faster pace.. no real leveling as your pitting ur built character againts theres.. so stupid how people think diablo is tied to some sort of "this game is like this and has to be this way forever"
its not how blizzard thinks obviously, the game evolves.
why are some of you even on the pvp forum? when u just want simple duels? when you could think outside the box and make it so much more... instead wine about how diablo 2 was..
and how the hell is it not like a moba game? its 1 character u click around.. the same dam mechanic.. how the eff is it not possible????

This.
They're already working on a version for SC2, which is makes much more sense.
