They rescale lvls of zones in all acts as they have done with the rest of act 3 that came out at release. So its 4 acts per normal, and 4 per cruel and 4 per merciless. If this isnt clear, im out, good luck.
At the moment there is 9 acts of content
3x normal, 3x cruel and 3x merciless
I am just saying it would make more sense if the rescaling it to 10 acts of content.
Yes they can rescale it to 12 acts of content ( 4 x normal, 4x cruel and 4 merciless) but it will be
a balancing nightmare when they revert it back to 10 acts of content ( 5 x normal 5 x merciless) when act 5 comes out. This is the reason why it makes more sense for them to rescale it to 10 acts rather 12 acts of content
Also there is so much you can 'cut' It will be such a 'bore' to go though 12 acts of content even if they shorten some of the areas.

Edit: this is all that needs to be said, see below
It doesn't matter in the end. There WILL be 4 acts and 3 difficulties this time around.
If that changes to 5 acts and 2 difficulties later...well... that's GGG's call and we'll know in 2 years.
Feel free to necro this thread in 2017 and let us know how it goes...

You dont even know if they cut a difficulty later, its all speculation. I wouldnt have problems doing 10 acts in normal and then 10 in cruel and another 10 in merciless. The more acts the better, i hate the "endgame" content, its always such a grind, with acts i at least get some story and fun.

if they rescaled the levels in a way that the beast in mercyless resides in a level 78-80 area ... and i didn't read anything about maps in the anouncement, they were placeholders for real endgame anyway.
age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!
