hi all...
I definitely go for the HC and i would like your opinion about the pvp style at Diablo III. Yyy I know all about D3 isnt a pvp game etc. but if you combine the HC (die once bb char) with the pvp element the thrill, it would be beyond any imagination. OK I know HC are less than sc and if pvp has that option the noumber mignt drop even futher but guys this is what HC is all about..

TY for reading and feel free to express your opinion. (see ya in the game xD)

PVP in D3 will be fast based with almost instant spawn. The reason for the instant spawn component is cos you will die very very quickly, especially with the other team focus firing / controlling you. HC PVP is almost pointless since, and I cannot stress this enough - You will die almost every single game.

I know that Jay had said in his interview that he was interested in giving some means in which two HC characters could duel to the death. He said it might be as simple as just a spot in world where if you go there, you are flagged for PvP. So, HC duelers may get a means to kill each other permanently.

This is the correct route to og, HC PvP without permadeath will create a vibrant and living HC PvP community, which is awesome

Yeah, I agree.

perma death in HC pvp is just silly. although some people will not like the decision, imo it will ultimately make the HC community stronger and more active.

I thought HC dueling in d2 was silly. No different for d3.

I would love to have a PvP mode in HC where you fight to the death, and the winner takes the losers items.

They could always put in a system where players can bet money or even items. Of course, it will be optional but I'm sure a lot of people would be happy if something like that was included.

But a real HC PvP mode where the dead stays dead forever will result in a very few high levels HC players wanting to PvP and a lot of low levels HC characters that are created solely for Pvp (something Blizzard wants to avoid).

Jay Wilson already talked about this in his PvP discussion to the press. One of the questions was if they would ever introduce the ability to bet on PvP matches.

^ 830 for your response

I'll have a HC character after I have a decent playthrough on regular

What happened to D4D!?!?

Quote from Aerisot

I would still like to see Last man standing HC competetions for E-sports, pre-loaded characters max level, Tourny brackets, last one standing wins the money.

From everything Blizzard has said on the subject, it won't happen. We might see some eSport sponsor actually sit down and level characters, get gear, etc to create pre-made characters for tournaments...but I highly doubt we'll see anything like that from Blizzard. I am kind of curious how such features would benefit Diablo 3 overall though. I've seen quite a few people complain about very similar features...but noone really offering why it'd be good for the game and community.

I've given ample reasons AGAINST more competitive PvP features throughout the threads here. They range from alienating the core community (PvM) to Blizzard being outright against the features. What would be so good about these features that everyone should change their mind?

I really really think Blizzard won't make permanent death in hc pvp. I'm almost certain they think it would mean nobody would play it or only level 20 characters.

Whether its true or not, cool or not I don't know but I'm willing to bet a lot on it.
