It's hard to tell, because most of the Diablo fan base doesn't want an MMO, but I have to qoute myself on this one.

Well you know Blizzard has several projects that are being created for the near future... they always do, but I think imo they will create some new universe some type of game other than warcraft starcraft or diablo, although they are deffinatley working on some sort of SC2 exp, maybe a WoW 2, maybe a World of Diablo and maybe a World of Starcraft are also in the making. These sort of gaming company's have to look far into the future and how they will create revenue to increase the size productivity and money (of course).

That really doesn't mean a thing. It could be an MMO, and being next gen it could be very unlike wow and amybe something like guildwars with a communal town and all the adventures instanced. That's pretty much like Battlenet right there but with graphics. Plus they never said it was pay to play.
Really the fact they call it an MMO means very little to Diablo or other possibilities.
Are there any mmorpg's which are hacknslash?
All the mmorpgs ive seen are slow level grinds, no mobs of monsters explode into ice shards over your entire screen because of the lag issue
I'm beginning to have a hard time anyway distinguising the differences between an MMO and an MMORPG. It's like, I'm having a difficult time conceptualizing the MMO part without also picturing in my mind the RPG part.
I'm surprised there isn't more bitching. This is a 100% true story being reported by multiple sites.
The next game is IN FACT and MMO and will not be the Diablo 3 everyone wants.
Not the Diablo 3 everyone wants perhaps, but it can still be Diablo. We're still hangin in there.
I'd be excited if it was a Diablo MMO. It'd be interesting to see how they would accomplish it.

Its a next-gen title so there is still some room for another pc release. I am sure Blizzard has some team that concentrates on the console thing. Dont know where i read it though...
From what I understand, they've postponed the console department. And anyway, Blizzard only has 3 teams to anyone's knowledge, so if this game is being developed, then a non-MMO Diablo 3 is most likely not in development.

What a great opportunity for Blizzard to prove to us then that they can break free of the mainstream MMO image.

I dont see any MMOFPS or MMORTS around
Not really, because there's no point to it. Yet. It's just that the RPG section suits itself more to a wideopen environment.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.
Supporting big shoulderpads and flashy armor since 2004.

Blizzard has confirmed they currently have a team working on a new next-gen MMO not to be confused with the WoW expansion.
Sorry guys.

Also, if it is an MMO and it is, it won't be Diablo 3. It might be a title in the Diablo series, but not Diablo 3.

"Next-Gen MMO, and is not Warcraft related"
We don't know what a next-gen MMO looks like.. we have WoW which is an MMO but not a next-gen mmo
perhaps its radical?
perhaps its a bunch of sh!t
in anycase its either to do with Starcraft, Diablo or New Franchise. But even then they are asking for people to join the team behind Diablo 1,2.
So it makes me think it is either a Diablo game or a New Franchise
Really the fact they call it an MMO means very little to Diablo or other possibilities.

I thought MMO was just shorthand for MMORPG?
