Being at a Warcraft III press event we had the opportunity to have an interview with his highness Bill Roper. Present were Bryionak representing D2Watchtower as well as Gunslinger and Sandro from D2Network. While the primary subject of the event was of course the upcoming release of Warcraft III, we were able to ask a few questions about Diablo II. Bill Roper was happy to provide us with a few very interesting answers about the upcoming Patch 1.10.

1. The Patch will contain a lot of new content including new crafting recipes and runewords.

2. Blizzard will continue to fight duping, hacking and cheating with the patch providing additional security against those actions.

3. The real sensation: There will be another ladder reset Only people who create completely new characters will be able to participate, twinking (the transfer of items from other, older characters and mules) will not be possible for these character. It seems that it will be even impossible for old and new characters to play together in one game.

4. The experience system will be completely redone, according to Bill Roper a character at level 75 will already count as a very high level character. However the cap of 99 levels will remain.

There isn't any exact date of release known yet, expect the patch late the end of june to early july, which would put the release shortly after the release of Warcraft III.
This sounds like big news and indeed we thought that we should provide this piece of news in English for our American colleagues.

This was posted at The Diablo II Network and a link is to it from DiabloII.net.

yes, just went on Diabloii.net and got this link : http://d2network.gamigo.de/news.php on this page is your quote.
As it is reported by Diabloii.net , it can be considered as 'almost' official.

Damn you blizzard, damn you to hell. Thats the most retarted thing i've ever heard ;) . Might as well make D3 if your gonna do that. Not being able to play old w/ new is utter BS. Oh well, just need to dupe/pindle run some more to get items with the "new" chars.

When a new patch comes out, new exploit/glitches are possible, you know this.... but you're right, this is not a Hacking post.
Moved :)
