If you receive an "Input limit reached" message and haven't been up to anything sinister, let Blizzard know and explain why you've been creating so many games. "While we regularly take action against accounts for the use of unauthorized third-party programs and bots, this additional measure will help us further preserve and protect the integrity of the game and economy in between ban waves." "We've further tuned and tested the conditions that trigger this limit to ensure, as much as possible, that it only affects those abusing the Diablo 3 game service in a way that violates the terms of use - for example, by using bots that create games in rapid succession," wrote Blizzard on its official forums.īlizzard explained that bots can throw the player-driven economy out of whack, too. This should prevent people from violating the terms of use by spamming bots.

So tl dr: You don’t pay enough for effective security and it’s pointless anyways.Diablo 3 players will soon be limited on how many games they can launch in short succession, Blizzard has announced. I’m just saying if they do it again, count yourself lucky. How much time do you think it would take for a competent team to eat up the entire D3 budget? D3 is $15 forever on the right holiday sale and how many resources have they put into banning bots overall? One lowly developer is $50/hr plus benefits unless it’s a contractor. WoW is $15/mo and they still have a bot problem. If you want to pump money into D3 every month, great, but as you’re playing a game that’s essentially free minus a small activation fee, the failure here is probably more on the expectation than the delivery. Somebody’s always the bigger exploiter of mechanics and/or always more lucky.įinally, every time they banned bots in D2, the bots just became stronger. Secondly, again, what other people do does not matter to anybody else in the slightest unless you, for some reason, are obsessed with leader boards and let’s face it, you’re not going to reach the top no matter what you do. Beyond like 10 hours total in a season, you’re basically accomplishing 0.0005% of anything at all. Right, but why D3? This is probably the worst way to waste your time if you have obscene amounts to spare.

I play 10 hours or more a day, (spinal fusion) means you cant a whole lot.
