Diablo 2 Patch 1.13 Add New Content

New features in the Diablo 2 patch 1.13

The patch 1.13 release date is close. ATM dev team is working on the patch and PTR shoud be ready soon. The patch 1.13 is a "content patch". A content patch is a patch with new content? ueh... strange to say this way, but it is what it is. It doesn't mean they won't fix boggus or minor issue, no. They will fix everything, but this mean they will make major change.
While I was surfing over the internet, I saw some strange screenshot of the "create game page" with 2 new feature: ALLOW PVP and CAPTCHA VALIDATION. There is the proof . Those are 2 nice feature.
This is the screenshot I took myself and the following link.

"Allow Pvp" is simply mean that when the box is uncheck, no longer other "players" can hit you in any manner. If you unchek this box, no fuckin lvl 99 will come kill every one in your run. If you unchek this box, you won't be able kill other players. If you unchek this box, you won't be able to duel.

Captcha check
The "Captcha validation" is the best between everything. I'm not a boter, I never used a bot or either MH, I enjoy playing in spare time, but when I see those duper, hacker and spammer and then I see the captcha check, I am very happy. The Captcha validation is only a way to get ride of all the bot in-game. The bots will stil be able to join open chat, but not closed channel and any games. How will the Captcha works after the patch 1.13? You will only have to type in a box a certain amount of characters varying between letters and numbers every time you create or join a game. Maybe certain of you won't like this, I encourage you to show your point of view in the comments. Otherwise, i think before the chest or the respec or any new runeword this will be idea for a long time. Runewords become anyoing and not funny after a certain amount of time, but we'll have get ride of bot for always I think. Maybe that in the universe of coding some one, one day, will create a bot unable to decrypt the code and re write it. Uh! Good luck, until then we will play bot free.

Next in-game feature we know by now, is that bigger chest with 12x10 120 slot instead of 4x8 48 actualy. This . Yeap, you will be able in somehow to move pages in your chest to access to 3 time more item in your chtest. Less mules? yeap but not totaly. respec. respecing will allow you to change skills or stats of your character from a certain manner (not much explation at this time). Ladder reset. At the same time of the patch the ladder will be resetted. Finnaly, there will be new runewords. We don't know how much, but there will be. I hope there will be plently as the patch 1.13 is the last patch released for diablo 2.

The pic was made by a fan and posted on battle.net forums as an EXAMPLE of how it should be done. It is not a proof of the change being implemented, tho some unofficial 1.13 changelogs do mention a captcha validation. Whatever the truth, this should make it into the game; I hate bots.
