Yeah, I am hoping we don’t have to do it via mod but… Will see.
I very much agree! I usually play single player and would like to use all runewords, too!
I would love to, but i left battle net because it was full of cheaters.
I didn’t see that coming with that username
+1 I always found this confusing to deal with and it was often hard to find a list of specificly singleplayer runewords. And specially for new players once again, it might turn into a mess of confusion. I’m all for a change like this. It’s single player.
I think they already activated ladder rune words for single player. I have seen some ladder rune words being used in alpha.
I don’t think I would read into this as you have. I think this was actually a 1-player multiplayer, not a true ‘single-player’ alpha, as you’re describing it.
I don’t think we can say if they plan on sp runewords yet…I hope they do though.
Yes!!! Blizzard, please make all runewords available in single player mode. This is the one request/change I would love to see above all else.
Offline : Yes
Online Non-Ladder : No
Offline play should not be restricted, let us use all the available runewords
They really need to change this, especially for consoles imo. Lots of people are going to play offline on consoles and you can’t mod there, so modding isn’t a solution. Give SP access to all runewords and the pandemonium event.
I hope Blizz staff will read this topic and answer our requests. I do not want to use some addons or mods to get pandenomium event and ladder-only runewords. ‘Forcing people to play online’ did not work for Diablo 3. I hope this time we get what we paid for (whole game with no restrictions on single player).
Make it happen, Blizzard.
Yes please add the ladder runewords for singleplayer, at least for consoles since consoles don’t have any mod possibility to add them.
Kind of a no-brainer that single player should have all the items available to ladder players. Blizzard or VV will be crazy to get this wrong. Ladder runewords, ladder uniques, ladder cube recipes, etc.
Dev time to implement this should also be very minor if not take a few minutes.
It’s just such a no-brainer. Why would anyone want to limit the single player (optional, self pace, 0 impact to others) experience?
Edit: Apparently, Ladder-only uniques are in Single Player, but Ladder only runewords arent… nice logic.
Single players already has ‘ladder only’ uniques.
I have no idea why the runewords are different. These should be in SP.
Good to know. The logic in allowing Ladder only unique, but not Ladder only runewords is now more baffling!
I thoroughly agree; there’s no good reason for single player to not have access to all features of the game; Ladder rune words, diablo clone, and uber tristram.
The argument against implementing the ladder only runewords in singleplayer seems lazy to me? Could we at least have a conversation about this with the devs/comminuty mangers?
The current argument says: “we are keeping true to the original”, but how does this hold up? I haven’t seen anyone ask for gating ladder only runewords from singleplayer.
Could they at least tell us why having to play on battle.net is better and more fun or what they want to achieve with keeping us from having the experience we want in singleplayer?
Are they afraid of backlash if they implement them in singleplayer?
There are already other QoL changes, this seems like the easiest one to include.
Please provide us with some thoughts on the topic as to why this isn’t a good idea.
My main thing is that I don’t have infinite time to play, and cannot keep up with a ladder season. I like to play a few hours here and there on the weekend with family and select friends, and single player/offline let’s us do this currently, with plugY.
Would be nice not to have to use a mod to get similar results with the remaster.
