This is gullably naive & hopeful at best. No offense but you strike me as the type who has never seriously been a part of a competitive scene. People cheat man. When they know they can get away with it, they cheat and they lie about things.
This is why for two decades worth of D2 pvp, we have to take screenshots or record things during even GM pvp matches, to make sure people aren’t janking the rules.
I’m calling it right now, this is what will happen:
- Player (A): Ok let’s agree to only use 4:3 for GM.
- Player (B) OK sure.
- Match starts. Player (B) is on the losing end.
- Match feels normal to Player (A) until suddenly Player (B) lands a 1-hit KO Blizzard on Player (A) from 4 screens away.
- Player (A): Hey, you have moon view turned on.
- Player (B): Nope, it was a name lock.
- Player (A): That’s impossible because I was reproaching you from 7 or 8 screens out which means your name lock would have been dead.
- Player (B): Show screen record or it didn’t happen kid.
^ So on and so forth, and this will be a recurring problem that will force people to have to screen record or stream to be able to prove if someone is abusing some declared ruling of target range or moon view casting. First of all, this is a ridiculously impractical requirement to be able to do GM rules. And secondly, players who are very savvy won’t be so easy to prove if they are cheating with this at all. They’d be smart enough to only use it during situations where it would be virtually impossible to prove that they were cheating.
I know it’s hard for you believe this, but the pvp in Diablo 2 Resurrected will be botched if they do not tend to this issue.
