I think some areas should just be free pve meaning anyone could go to them and lvl, kills mobs (mobs respawn) there should be uber boss mobs that drop RARE items (dont worry for all you stat haters they will have SAME stats just look sexier like fow armor)

It would also make the game more social with like upwards of 100's of people on the same field battling. There would be no PVP here so dont worry about ganking.

This free area i guess could be implemented in pvp too BUT make it lvl based. so a lvl 20 cant join a lvl 10 zone.

Its not ganking if your both lvl 20 and have ascended. Its just fun., and you dont gain faction or stats. just for fun. maybe a ear like they did with diablo?

The free areas would be like huge battlefields and atleast it would be social like a town not alone like a small 8 person group.

The majority of the game is free PvE where everyone can go and kill mobs.....

Well that would screw over dialup users. HUGE lag.

Also no-monthly fee means the servers have to be cheap. Hosting something like that requires tons of bandwidth, which means it's not gonna happen.

I think what powder is refering to is a area where its not just you, kinda like a town where you can kill things. And yes dueling needs to be implemented into this game. theres times where i want to just kick someones ass to make them shut up

Hmmm, this would add kill stealing, and other stuff along the lines of it.

Diablo 2 did it easily.

Its not to profit from. Just a pointless area like pvp. Maybe some rare drops but its not done on first hit. its randomly given away like items in a party are.

And the bosses would be like lvl 60ish so it would require A TON of ppl.

But good fun with random ppl.

I didn't realise you could play Diablo 2 with 8+ players in one game?

So you mean everysingle person is in one huge party? That would mean that people have so low of a chance to get anything, that it wouldn't really be worth it. Also lvl 60 bosses would go down against necromancers with glenth's balance and the echo spells. (500 damage times 3).

Also this would be a huge strain to the servers, as other people said.

it would just be fun. but again lets stop anything slightly fun and anything that will make it unbalanced. lets just keep it to 8 people and have no social element at all.................

Words from the horse on Ren and Stimpy.

"No Sir! I don't like it."

All I have to say, because if I wanted that I would be playing the MMORPGs that are already out there or be playing DII. Reason I like this game is because it is not like everything else out there.
