Are maps going to be randomized in RoS?

Hello, I bought D3 the day it came out and got bored of it within a few months and never came back. There were multiple reasons for that, but one of the biggest problems was the complete lack of map randomization. The maps were always the same or very nearly the same.

I am reading that in Act V they plan to make the maps a lot more random but I want to know what is going to happen to act I - IV? If they are still going to remain the way they are, very little randomization, I am not going to bother with RoS.

I don't want to just play act V only, I want to play all of the acts!

Edited for Act numbering correction.

One of the things Reaper of Souls has a big focus on is offering a lot of variety to players. For example, Act V offers a huge amount of map randomization, Bounties send players to several different locations in any given Act, and Nephalem Rifts offer endless replayability with fully randomized dungeons, monsters, weather, and lighting. The result of that effort is that players explore Sanctuary in new and exciting ways while gaining experience and finding treasure.

Edit: To answer your question, though, Acts I-IV will not be fully randomized like Act V is, but there will be a wide variety of places to explore for new and old characters.
