A lot of people tryed to say Hellgate was D3, due to it saying from the creator of Diablo on the case. Wow did anyone else relize how stupid alot of people are these days?
Bill Roper just announced they are making a game called
some kind of stupid insulting me as a nazi? ever met a doctor? if not, yout should give it a try...
isnt it fact that every 10th post is "wow look what i found "link to bnet forum with d3general"" and answers from more stupid ppl that say "oh nice, its 100% proof!!11" ?
it starts to SUCK! if you going to read about 100 sites, and read every 5th post the same, damn this start to hurt - so stfu please and change your way of talking to others.
You are telling me how to talk to others when your whole .sig is a angry rant against most people posting here?
I repeat my questions to you. If this bothers you so much, why are you even reading it?
It's clear from your .sig you wont be convinced of anything till the announcement. So why in the world would you purposley sit here and force yourself to read shit that is making you so angry? This makes no logical sense whatsoever.
See, my problem is, over the years, I've seen many people who are serious control freaks and want to try to dominate and control forums. They want to tell people what they should and shouldn't post.
It's none of their business. Is it your forum? Your bandwith?
Get on with your life and walk away if it bothers you so much. Don't sit here and keep forcing yourself to read it and then keep screaming at us to read your .sig. It makes you look bad.

i didnt read through this whole thing. so sorry if anybody else said this but.. LOOK AT THE RUNES NOT THE EYES, the runes are lighted up now.. you know like in diablo 2 when you hit the mark it lights up... a good sign of diablo 3 i think
im saying it again because it seems nobody even looked at my post because they thought it was spam.. im dead serious
I consider myself an avid gamer (though, I will admit, not a huge follower of PC games beyond stuff like Fallout 3, Spore, etc.), and I've never even HEARD of Mythos. I doubt Bilzzard is all that threatened by them. They know hordes on fans will flock to whatever game they make.
Just because you have never heard of the game doesnt mean that thousands of others havent.
I agree. I'll admit, i was F'ing excited for hellgate, and i can't even begin to describe how big of a damn disappointment it was. I just thank god i didn't pay that retarded "120.00 for lifetime subscription" fee that they had. My biggest complaint is how repetitive the environments were. it's like they made 3 dungeon tilesets and decided those three would just be randomized through 5 acts and they'd call it a finished game.
Yeah same here, I too am glad that I didnt pay the lifetime,
if only i can my money back on the game ill stop fuming:thumbsup:
Let me preface this by saying if Diablo 3 were to be announced, it would instantly become my number 1 most wanted game...period. I hope to God that they do announce it, the same as everyone here.
That said, none of the clues imo given seem to point toward D3, save for the hel rune.
Yes the splash image is not the same picture as the lich king...but you know it could be another picture of him. Blizzard have been known to redraw main characters (e.g. Illidan) making them look different for WoW than they have in WC3. That is, at least, what I feel the main picture is of. Looking at it from a marketing sense that to me is what they are trying to advertise. WotLK is due out soon and they want to use this event to promote it, and the first thing any uniformed wow person is going to see when they check out news from this event is that splash image. They aren't going to see it and think "hey, maybe that guy in the picture there is from ANOTHER game!"
Granted, it could be argued that blizzard knows this and is just using the lich king as a front (for the uninformed) while provided clues to another game at the same time. And I do believe they are. The announcement that they are going to reveal a new game is evidence enough to warrant that being true. So the question on all of our minds is what is the new game?
So far, the clues pointed out in this thread are imo little evidence of Diablo 3. In fact, they could be taken as indicators to other games like The Lost Vikings. Sadly, no real reason to believe Diablo 3 is going to be announced exists yet...or is there?
Now, this is just speculation, but looking at the bigger picture another game is set to be released in the near future that could threaten blizzard's market-share IF successful. This game is one actually made by former Blizzard employees, and looks remarkably similar to Diablo. The game is Mythos, and it seems to be gaining a lot of praise from those who have played it. A real threat indeed, should everyone go to this game to get their Diablo fix on.
Timing is key, especially in the gaming industry, and the announcement of Diablo III couldn't be timed more perfectly. Mythos is gearing up to open it's beta to the masses right around now, and a major announcement like Diablo III would be like dropping a bomb on their project. It would steal a large portion of their prospective audience's interest. This tactic has already proven successful in the past, when Sony used the announcement of the PS2 to stamp out the Dreamcast. To me, announcing Diablo III here and now makes perfect sense, if only for this reason alone.
Like I said, this is just speculation on my behalf. Though I have been following the industry for years and I tend to be able to predict things with a fair amount of accuracy. So take that for what you will. I'll leave you with just one final thought, Dictionary's word of the day happens to be: harbinger.
Dictionarys word of the day being harbinger is just creepy!
And I have played mythos starting 2 days ago.
It is much better then Hellgate London was.
And will probably be much more popular.
It is very fun, and a pretty decent game for closed beta.
I have played 10+ hours in 2 days so it is actually quite fun and a good way
to pass my time waiting for this announcement :P.
Blizzard would be curb stomping Flagship if they announce D3.
Hey, I haven't been following today, so I'm sure it's been posted:
I noticed that the fan art thumbs that had been changed to "?" on the blizzard site (on pages 13, 21, 32) are no longer questions marks.
I can't remember exactly which picturs had been removed and have now re-appeared. Can someone point me to any info on the topic?
This image is now on page 14, where it used to be on thirteen. Still says "Space left intentionally blank by Falthorn"

1. There are NO fucking d3, d4, d5 general or whatever forums! its simply a stupid bug, you could type in everything!
2. there isNO! hand or anything else in the ice, the WWI picture or the fucking pinguin, that shows a D or a 3!
3. there are also NO stupid faces or hands into the ice!
4. the eyes on the ice picture are absolutley not comparable to any Diablo (1/2) warcraft or starcraft artwork that exist!
just read that shit, damnit!
See, this is exactly what I mean. Get over yourself champ. Stop thinking you can change everything. People like you that feel some kind of right to dominate and tell everyone else what they can and can't do make me sick.
Does this forum have an ignore option? If so, consider yourself my first entry.
This has been really fun watching all the speculation and what not. I won't even try to think about any of this because some of you guys are waaay ahead of me.. So I'll sit here and wait... and pray :-)

IMHO, the picture is not of the WOTLK for the following reasons:
1 and 2. While the brow angle appears to be similar; the centre pattern is different as it is missing around the centre gem, or the thickness of the band is much more narrow.
3 and 5. Both cheeks protrudes well ahead of the eyes on the king picture. On the ice 5 picture, on the other hand, those cheeks appears to be recessed along with the eyes, such that they are barely visible.
4. Unless the king lost it's "nose", there is nothing there.
6. Although the right and left angles of the edge disappearing toward the "up" appears to be similar to the one on the king's picture, The "gem" is much too close to the Eyebrows even accounting for any parallax induced if the head was tilted toward the viewer.
Similar things: There is definitely smoke (or vapour) emanating from the eyes, blkurring the outside parts of the brows.
The picture might not be Diablo, as there is an utter lack of anything resembling horns, but I am also pretty confident it's not the Lich King.
Best, I think, is to wait till tomorrow and finally see what the fuss is all about. Then, for a whole lot of folks, crow pie will be served.
