Ok Town Portal is out of the game (Good)

But what if i join a game and want to play with peoplethat already playing, i need take near waypoint and walk all the way to meet others?

We cannot have a one side TP?
Or ideas?

Looking for a Blizz qod on that if possible.

We've always been trying to see if we can create a better system than town portals, making waypoints the main travel back to town mechanic. But, it's looking like it's just simply more fun and a quality-of-life-nicety to be able to jump back to town from anywhere even if waypoints are all over the place. Plus it's not really that hard to avoid the few pitfalls that TPs in Diablo II had.

There is actually a mechanic that allows you to jump from town (one-way) to any other player in the game.

Please elaborate. It sounds like even with the alpha happening, you guys are still in hardcore development mode.


We'll be developing the game up until release, and then likely well after. ;)

Q u o t e:
IMO, get rid of the scroll of wealth, since with town portals it's useless.


We haven't had those for a while, although we do have another mechanic to sell items while out and about.

Also I never said you can just use them anywhere anytime as much as you want. :)
