DI PVP is fun. Hope that D4 PVP will be better

General Discussion
1

Tried DI Battleground for a few days already due to the daily reward completion, and DI PVP is actually fun to play. :+1:

Not sure how D4 PVP will be turned out but I hope it will be better than DI PVP or at the same level at least.

Thanks to how amazing is DI PVP, I can’t wait now to learn more about D4 PVP in the beta, assuming that there will be one. :sunglasses:

BlizzCon 2021: Diablo 4 Press Q&A Roundup

PvP

  • Open world PvP zones in Diablo IV are known as Fields of Hatred, and they are marked on the map.
  • In addition to other players, you will find these in PvP Zones: monster events, treasure chests, rare elites and more.
  • The land has been infected by Lilith’s evil. Thus, players will loot “Shards of Hatred” from enemies you kill, from completed event rewards, and from treasure chests. Shard of Hatred can be used as a PvP currency. You bring those to purification ritual areas throughout the Fields of Hatred to spend elsewhere.
  • You can participate in events with other players in the Fields of Hatred (PvP zone) or decide to be hostile to each other.
  • When a player dies in the Fields of Hatred, all the unpurified Shards of Hatred carried will drop to the ground as loot.
  • You can complete events in the Fields of Hatred without participating in PvP.
  • When you toggle to become Hostile, other Hostile players will be able to see you as Hostile and viceversa.
  • Hostile groups can gang up on other hostile players without attacking members of their group.
  • PvP in Diablo 4 isn’t designed to be fair. A player might be half health while engaging a rare elite, and suddenly be attacked by another hostile player or by a gang of hostile players.
  • It was hinted that sometimes you might be able to overcome other players in specific environmental situations that might or not be there next time you visit the Fields of Hatred zone; and you might feel at a disadvantage in other environmental situations.
  • You can loot ears from players like you did in Diablo II, but you can’t sell them in Diablo 4. These are meant as a trophy collection, and they list the name of the PvP player you defeated.
  • There is no team-based match PvP in Diablo 4 at the moment or plans for it. Only Open World PvP in Fields of Hatred zones. You can join groups of players, but there is no team vs team matches.
  • If you decide to flag for PvP inside the Fields of Hatred, then decide to unflag, you can only toggle PvP off at the Fields of Hatred town.
  • PvP currency (Shards of Hatred) will play no role in progression. You can only purchase cosmetic items and trophy-style rewards. That means you won’t find better gear in PvP than what you get from PvE experiences.
  • There is no way for a hostile PvP player to force a PvE player into combat in the Fields of Hatred, or viceversa; or to accidentally cast a ranged AOE at the exact time a PvP player pops into view in the affected area.

Another new thread created by you praising Diablo Immortal.

Are you really interested in D4 PvP or simply trying to figure out a way to hide your real imtention of praising D:I. There was no need to bring up D:I. You could have strictly discussed D4 PvP.

If your real intention was to discuss D4, you would edit the OP to remove all D:I related comments, but I am sure that you will not because praising D:I is tbe reason that you created this thread IMO.

I am bringing DI PVP up because I was enjoying it, so it restored my faith that Blizzard can do a good Diablo PVP game, thus hoping for the same for D4.

If I never play DI PVP that is actually good, how can I look forward on D4 PVP? Using D2 PVP (or D3 PVP) as a comparison? :rofl:

P.S. So who alt are you actually? :sunglasses:

P.S.S Avalon, I saw your “Blizzard payroll” line before you omitted it. Maybe next time you should make up your decision on what you really want to post before posting and then remove it later. :sunglasses:

I have asked you before if you were now on the Blizzard payroll because of all of the Immortal advertisement you do for them, you did not answer. You have become a one-man Immortal advertisement machine for Blizzard they need to start paying you. If you want to turn the D3 forum into the Immortal forum. Bobby Kotick should at least start paying you.

It’s certainly a lot of fun to be paragon 140+ and be paired up with sub-60 noobs who die just by existing.

Even more fun when the opposing team are the ones with poorly-geared sub-paragon 50 noobs who feed your kill streak. 16-kill streak tonight. My all-time high is 21 from a few weeks ago.

Pvp competition where the winners are the ones who spent the most money.

Sounds amazing :roll_eyes::upside_down_face::clown_face:

What the hell is going on in this thread.

One person mentions Diablo Immortal in reference to its pvp to talk about pvp in Diablo 4. A perfectly reasonable thing to do. It’s a frickin Diablo game.

And they are met with post after post of toxicity.

Your behaviour is disgusting all of you.

You should be ashamed of yourselves.

The great thing is, normal people who aren’t internet trolls see how disgusting your behaviour is and this is a big win for showing how all the people leaving negative comments about pvp aren’t worth the time of day.

Kilometer sorry you have to deal with this.

There’s nothing wrong with your post it’s perfectly innocent 3 sentences mentioning literally the latest Diablo game and mentioning you enjoyed the pvp in it and are hoping to see more pvp in Diablo 4.

If people don’t like it they could simply ignore the post and hope it fades into obscurity. Instead they highlight it and also highlight how toxic they are and how much hatred pvp players get on the Blizzard forums from players trying to keep Diablo a solo only non social gambling simulator. Not that pvp should not be included in Diablo.

Diablo should be inclusive and progressive in the face of toxicity and hatred and instead embrace all players and definitely put dev time into pvp.

Pvp players are just gamers dude. If you don’t like pvp, get the hell out the thread and stfrickup

No. I am not on Blizzard’s payroll. :sunglasses:

So what are you going to do now? Coming up with another slander or something? If you do, make sure you don’t omit it, or else, it will make you look indecisive. :sunglasses:

Wow? 21 kills. That is high. I don’t think I ever get anything above 10+ kills.

Still fun to play. That is why I hope D4 PVP has something similar or better than DI PVP. :sunglasses:

So? What are you going to do? :sunglasses:

Well, they’re more criticizing him than they are the PvP.

The PvP is fine for what it is, which is to say a) it’s worse than real PvP games and b) can be fun until you run into a guy literally a hundred times stronger than you are thanks to the wonderful pay2win system.

I am not even criticizing him, he is one of my favorite people on the forum, I just want him to be compensated by Blizzard for all of the advertisement he does for Immortal. As for PvP I do not give a :poop:.

So? That’s there opinion. If you want to express yours go make a thread about it instead of lambasting other peoples threads with nothing useful other than opinionated accusations.

What are Blizzard doing? They have a way to flag posts as “trolling” but apparently they fail to ever understand what “trolling” actually is as they allow it to exist and flourish in nearly every post in this forum.

Fine in your opinion. Plenty of people want more me included. And I particularly like the fact that I can grind up to a really powerful character and dunk on people.

This is exactly why pvp in rpgs is so much fun. Being able to earn your way to super power through pve. It’s a hybrid pve pvp experience.

Survival games have no AAA developers yet every time a survival game launches tons of hungry survival players buy the game. There’s clearly a gap in the market AAA developers are not filling.

This is the same with the rpg pve/pvp market. There’s a huge hole waiting to be filled and Blizzard should do this in D4. It would be revolutionary for pve/pvp players.

You’re a troll. Every message you write is hidden trolling. And you’re stupid enough to think other people are as stupid as you they don’t see it. No Blizzard dev is listening to anything you type.

He probably should be compensated. Unfortunately, DI is a pile of trash as long as that payment system exists. It’s a pity, because I group it with Trove and Genshin Impact: Games that are really fun to play that I’d be happy to pay a sub for, ruined by their cash grab systems.

I was speaking about how it was fun with 50% WR at this moment. Also, it doesn’t really need a whale to trash me as no lifer (or botters) was already done that on me and I was not discouraged by it. There is a good reason why Battleground is still populated with F2P/BP players as they don’t care much about losing to whales as long as they got their daily rewards.

People will experience the same thing (unfairness) in D4 as long as the game doesn’t make everyone fight with the same gear and level.

I can’t wait to see another pvp mode announced and come here and post about it to see you all cry about it.

Your salty tears will taste great.
