first off, it was ONE titale a year untill next year. And when they said Starcraft2 wont affect the release date of D3, that was STARCRAFT2 Now its SC2 Wing of Liberty. The whole game ws so big that they split it into 3 games, that will all be released seperate. Now that its different, starcraft2 never really had its own delay, they just split it. And even saying so, then theyre on reg one title a year thing, and thats Cataclysm. Either way, they changed the one a year, to two for 2010, and it really is inpossible for Diablo3 to be released any time in 2010. And if you debate that fact, heres some proof.
They told us willingly when act1 was ab out complete, because we dont knwo how many acts there are, we cant guess a date. No new info on any other acts but that 2 and 3 ar ein work. Plus, just the length of time for alpha AND BETA testing, is not enough with the rest that needs to be done to even hope for a 2010 release. Im betting 3/4 quarter 2011 simple put. MAYBE late second quarter, by late i mean end of june. (LOD released june 29th, d3 confirmed june 28th, anyone see blizz obsession with june?)

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
See? Blizzard seems to have a june thing. Dont get me wrong, I still think personally it would take a bit more itme, still rounnd 3/4 quarter, but what can I say? If they got it, they got it!

UGh another one of these threads...anyway uhm no its impossible for there to be a 2010 release based on what we've been told. Someone said on first page fifth clas must only be in planning stages wrong. They stated smewhere forgot where they had the fifth class and it has been seen its been in the game but they used a placeholder i.e. just somethign to be there im guessing a merc of somesort was actually fifth class there to help out. uhm what else beta testing iwll take half of a year at least if we are luck so in just saying tht and the fact act 2 is being finished or fnished by now and act 3 should be in late dev stages and if theres a fourth the fourth should be in very early dev stages then we still have to have them reasses all the skills balance and complete everything play through the game to see if it is balanced and fair for all players this should all take all of 2010 and then beta testing should start somewhere in i'm guessing early to mid 2011
and a release date should come around blizzcon 2010 or blizzcon 2011 and then you've got diablo 3 .. we are still ways off but we are slowly but surely getting there.

Hey jack, thats what i SAID. Others said "we hope for 2010" and i kept proving it wrong. I said atleast 2011.
And they said they (past-tense) WERE using a place holder but COULDNT use one for the 5th class (didnt say y), leading to speculation as to why a placeholder wouldnt work for the class.
AGAIN, NO CHANCE untill 2011 ATLEAST

2011? rofl... I knew I can rely on this forum for entertainment purpose.
Just look at my signature... that's my prediction and I am sticking to it. If Blizzard can prove me wrong, that's great. If not, the joke is on them.

Perhaps you should read a little more of this forum...
Since you can indeed rely on it for information.
Diablo III will release after SC2, not immediately after but close.
SC2 has been said to be released in either late 2010 or early 2011.
So be a little more optimistic
And yes this forum is also entertaining I can say the least. :thumbsup:

SC2 is confirmed for 2010 completly now, not 11, and so is cataclysm so 2011 still lookks good, but if not, alas, thus the name of my thread, 2011 atleast

I applaud Blizzard for their conduct on these things, for me setting a release date is giving the developer a time frame in which things have to be completed by, and if they don't deliver they get lynched by the mob.. We all know that a rushed job is never as good as a thorough and completed job. I for one do not mind waiting the extra time for something that is going to be completely polished and not rough around the edges.
This may be true. But people are also not motivated to work as quickly as possible if there is no deadline in place. I cannot claim to know all of the intricacies of video game production, but how could it take a team of people multiple years to produce one game? And another thing, if it was going to take multiple years then why did they make such a big deal about revealing it? They got everyone all excited only to make them wait 3 years. The only feedback that we get from the production team are these random interviews in which they do not tell us anything thats worth a damn anyway. I feel that I've been pretty patient with the whole process, but the realization of a 2011 release date just makes me feel a bit disgruntled.:mad:
Well yea, kinda but kinda not. I can honestly speak for them, im going to end up designing videogames myself, thats what im attending for college for, (Even applied for that job posting becuase I have most the skills they want), and then I want to end up wroking for Blizzard on either Diablo projects, or Square Enix on Kingdom Hearts, or Final Fantasy as a backseat. Ive created and developed games using minute programs on comupters, and parts cna be really enthralling. It is completly normal fopr videogames that change alot of there base to take this long to produce, EASY. Heres my neighboring example. GUITAR HERO. Why can they produce 3-5 games a year? Because its all the same thing but adding an aspect or two of different play, and changing songs. Diablo3 is a complete reboot of everything from D2.
And the reason as to why they revealed it with years to go? Fansbase. If you go YEARS with fans saying "THeyll make D3 eventually" or "Sign this fucking petition so they do" it gets ridiculous, s instead of listening to whinng and bitching for 3 years, they revela and and drop what info they can at times. PLUS, there fanbase is bigger and ahave increased sales the sooner they reveal it becuase more people are waiting instead of finding out 2 months before its release.

It's a good game, but it does lack to some degree the Essence of Excellence.
