| Is it possible to increase the number of players in one game? Regarding D2, it also allowed max. 8 players in one game. But D3 only 4. As you know, D3 had 6 classes. Why not see all of them in one game? More people in one game will make game more fun. That is my feeling. What about your ideas? Hopes Blizzard will consider this. | ||

This has been talked before, and a blue commented as well. (Scroll down a little more for a 2nd comment from blue as well) http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/9751335503?page=1#14 I was just about to link to this thread, but I guess you beat me to it :-) We are well aware that larger groups is something quite a few people would like to see happen, and we see this requested fairly often. Larger groups has certainly been considered and the developers have also experimented with larger group sizes in the past, but the reality is that having more then 4 players on screen at the same time simply makes for a lot of screen noise—it is much harder to keep track of everything happening on the screen at the same time with a larger number of players, and that detracts from the fun of group play too much. We are already seeing complaints from people feeling overwhelmed by too many spell effects in 4 player groups now, so imagine how chaotic it would become if you could have 6 or more players in a group. Should we find a good way to make larger groups more manageable for people to play, then we would of course not be against reconsidering the current 4 player limit, but it is important to us that the sense of power individual characters gets from their spell and ability effects is maintained in group gameplay as well as solo gameplay. | ||

I think we must resign ourselves to the fact that we will never have a gameplay similar to WoW. Well Diablo III was never intended to be WoW, or any other MMORPG for that matter, so if people want WoW then they have the option to play WoW. That said, I do not think that many people ask Diablo III to be like WoW, but I can understand if people think that certain gameplay elements seen in WoW could be fun in Diablo III as well. | ||

So, even if the clutter is reduced in a way, it would require more extensive tweaking and balancing in the mechanics to make it viable. There is that too indeed. | ||
