I look at MMO-Champion and it seems that the progress of MoP seems to be chuging along, Diablo III seems to be at a stand still, when was the last time we had any kind of new information other then "blah blah blah no release yet blah blah blah"
Hey! The betting pool was my idea from another thread! Anyways, WoW Exp.... maybe if enough of us vote for that Blizzard would push D3 out in a few days
I didn't even read your thread I came up with it while looking at MMO-Champion. Based the question off the fact people know more about MoP then D3 it seems.
Of course you need to take in concideration that D3 was (basically) build by scratch and WoW xpack is a lot of cut and paste from other WoW stuff they could shove those out really quick
MoP is not even in beta nor even alpha. If we take WoTLk and Cata as examples those two expansions were in alpha for almost 2 months (1 month and 25 days) before going to beta which lasted 4 months and some days.
So total time from Alpha to Release : 6 months.
Let's say MoP alpha goes out in February: Game won't be out before August... But this is unlikely because the full buff of their current raid (DragonSoul) wouldn't be fully given. They plan to do exactly like they did the nerf to ICC. So for you who don't care of details. The game cannot go out before 8 months.
If you think Diablo 3 is going to be out after October 2012, then you are very mistaken. You think Blizzard would have overshoot a project by a year (they planned D3 for Q4 2011, not Q4 2012).
Don't let your deception drive your : OMG it will be release late. But also don't expect a Q1 release (Pessimist and optimist are wrong here)
funny when i first posted this pepole where like "naw man, D3 months before MoP!" now that J Wilson took a big sheit on our D3 dreams with their useless changes votes for MoP have gone UP!

So still voting D3 with an expectation of MoP for end summer and D3 in Q2.
