Diablo III PvP goes live

Diablo III’s patch 1.0.7 has gone live, adding the structured competitive combat system, otherwise known as PvP, or playing against other gamers instead of AI.

Diablo III launched with its fair share of issues – and now, more than half a year after its release, it’s still missing a number of promised features, not least of which is proper PvP.

MMOs are ever changing games, not much different from other online games like MOBAs, they are shaped and changed and adapted over time. New features get added, old features get removed, gameplay changes and for the most part, we absolutely love it.

Also missing was the Real Money Auction House - which would allow you to use actual cash to buy and sell in-game equipment.
