Diablo III hacks released...

All those who hack want control over their games when they can't have control over their lives. They do it because they derive pleasure from it or are just idiots. Of course we care because then they do it in multiplayer which affects those who don't have these issues...
....yeah no. If anyone remembers myg0t, I used to roll with them quite a bit. I stuck to strictly wall hacks and left the aiming up to me. Only wall hacks I used were the ones where it'd put the blue or red square around the bodies.

It's mostly just hilarious seeing everyone get PO'd at video games. I haven't cheated since probably '03 as I play only console now.
 
I could more of see blizzard generating godlike items that you can't actually find in the game and then selling them on the AH under the guise of being an actual player found item.

I'm kind of guessing eventually they'll just openly sell items. Things like start pack sets. They already pushed the limits of what they could sell to people already paying a subscription in WoW. I'm pretty sure they'll be much more obnoxious in DIII.
 
This is why single player games > *

Or actually, the multiplayer games where you are just playing with friends > *

Soon as you start mingling with the general public you end up disappointed. Even without hackers they just generally behave like smacktards.

As a partial, this is where good servers (familiar servers) are better than not.

Haks will get on almost anywhere, but a server that you can get on that has an understanding mod will ban an aimbotter, spammer, deadweight or other game ruin-er pretty quickly. You will also see the same familiar faces.

It was that way with UT, TF2 and many other games.

What they have to do with D3 is just make it a PITA to exploit the game, not impossible. If it took too much work to bot a game that you could just sink $2 and get the same item, why bother? Charge $10 for that mystical sword and you will see people start to find a way to get it for free.
 
hmmm I wonder if Blizzard will turn into a pay to win model kinda like EA with BF3 where you pay to unlock everything.
 
Isn't it now?

Sorry no. It didn't happened in WoW, and before you start saying using the RMAH is equivalent to pay-to-win don't forget there were third-party item markets in D2 doing the exact same thing, except now with RMAH in D3 Blizzard has a much stronger incentive to stop cheating.

Faaaaaaaar from the likes of EA.

Here we go again 🙄

If the money you paid them provided you with anything that wasn't already easily obtained in game for doing nothing more than playing the game, you might have a leg to stand on. However that isn't the case.
