Except that your char will be worth like 10 cents since the Azn botters will have driven the prices so far down. Not to mention you will have crummy gear since everyone will be ninja looting like a b just to have a chance at selling in the RMAH.

So yeah you could solo to avoid people who bought gear, but multiplayer is fun and they have ruined it with this move. In the words of the food reviewer "this shit is not a buy"

spot on. I think the moves they pulled are sooooo porly advised that i'll wait for the DRM to be cracked to play the single player for the storyline.

Is D3 gonna have the same spam loot system as D2? That combined with RMT system could make players very very hostile towards one another, discourage teamplay, etc

Yea basically.

I remember doing Hell Mode Ball runs on D2 ..... basically whoever picked up the loot 1st got it.

SOMETIMES people were cool and let others have items; don't see this happening anymore.

With the new RM sales, basically whoever has the fastest computer is gonna snatch up EVERY item that drops and go sell em for RL cash.

MOBS DROP YOUR OWN LOOT. JUST FOR YOU.

Fuck. Listen people.

Plus blizzard is apparently running an in-game currency auction house aswell.

I just really think Blizzard is opening pandora's box with this. Everyone emulates what they do in gaming. Look at every single MMO that has ever come out since WoW got big. I just don't get how anyone who enjoys gaming is cool with games basically being turned into 'buy your success instead of play for it.'

This is just the beginning. Is RMAH going to impact what I do? Probably not unless I make public games constantly and have to play with other people who snag everything that drops. But in the long run this is a bad sign of things to come. I wouldn't even give a shit except that its common knowledge Blizzard doesn't enforce their anti-hacking and botting policies anymore so RMAH isn't going to benefit someone like me that doesn't game 24/7. The system is designed to profit off these companies and people that bot their games.

Your buy loot other players picked up. Blizzard isnt just offering random items out for sale. I dont understand why you people are so pissed off? Diablo 2 was the EXACT SAME, only you had to pay some korean website instead of other players with blizzard taking a small cut. Oh fucking no. You get to play on their servers for free. Deal with it.

Lol, "yes , you an idiot"?

Did you even read that sentence before posting it?

I was implying that making completely unfounded conclusions is pointless. Glad to see you understood.

Dude you're not seeing the big picture at all. This is something that should not be a part of games period. And when people were buying shit for real money from Korean websites they had to go out of their way to do it and risked getting banned/suspended for doing so. At least thats how it used to be before Activison took over.

Now its going to be some legitimate operation thats right there in your face as you play. And if you think this auction system for real money is going to benefit the actual players I am going to disagree with that. This system they're putting in benefits two things: Blizzard and companies that are going to bot this game into the ground. I mean at first I was kind of looking forward to this RMAH shit, then I woke up and realized Blizzard hasn't cared about cheating, hacking or botting on their games for some time now. And if thats actually the case it means D3 is going to be botted into the fucking ground nonstop 24/7. Ever since this merger with Activison they have stopped caring about cheating in their games. Just look at or ask anyone who plays World of Warcraft. Nobody gets permanently banned anymore for botting honor in battlegrounds or buying gold. Wanna know why? Because then they lose out on that $15 a month. Back in classic one of my good friends tried using a Glider to level his warrior. Within 48 hours of running it his account got permanently banned and he quit playing the game until BC came out when he decided to start all over from level 1. That shit does not happen to people anymore.

So if that ends up happening, which a lot of people speculate it will, the RMAH isn't going to be some player friendly system that exists to improve gameplay. It's going to exist to tax these companies that bot their games like crazy. Anytime you or I want to go post something on the RMAH to try and turn some cash it's going to suck because the markets just going to be flooded with countless items from programs and not players. Don't forget its going to cost you money to even list an item on their RMAH so if it doesn't sell you lose whatever it cost you to list that item. Now imagine trying to sell your shit among a flood of the same items from companies that can actually afford to just take their items down the second someone undercuts them and repost them.

It's not going to be what everyone thinks. Blizzard should have said fuck you to these websites instead of taking some easy out all just to nickel and dime their customers. It's understandable from a business standpoint but unbelievably disappointing from a customer standpoint because I've been playing their games since Warcraft2 and if they try and put this garbage in the rest of their games or RMAH turns out to be as bad as I think it will I'm done with their product.

I too liked Bliz more when they opened can of whoop ass on anyone even suspected at cheating or gold trading. But it seems, Activision follows a different path: "if you can't beat them - profit from them"

Anyone else excited for playing hardcore single player and getting a lag spike? Losing it all trying to headinthesand avoid some sanctioned RMT. Put the RMTers on a different server like the goddamn EQ2 bazaar.

That is, unless people are doing it just to buy status?...awww yeaah.
