I take it you've given up trying to defend your point. You didn't last long at all. Nice insults, by the way. It really pertains to the subject matter.
But seriously, if you want to continue to talk here, you should stick to being realistic.
Defend my point? I saw no reason to defend myself, I know I'm right, why should I debate something I already know?
So instead I personally insult you, which I'm sure you've taken to heart, I'll enjoy your response to this.
I'm right about you, I'm right about WoW, I'm pretty much right about everything.

All u got are speculations. All you lack are common sense, facts (as in something to "prove" your points), knowledge of marketing and manners. It could be anything. But when the announcement comes, if its not a WoW expansion (which is most likely that its not) make a new thread saying how stupid you are. Being so absolute about something you dont know is stupid enough.
I'm right about you, I'm right about WoW, I'm pretty much right about everything.
First of all, that is the most conceited remark I have ever heard in my life. Even I don't say shit like that even if I do have proof to back that comment up.
Second, why the fuck would it be WoW. Sure the expansion did sell millions (don't know the exact number) and it was supposed to be big news but seriously an announcement for WoW at a world wide event in Korea would just be washed out. Sure people in Korea would care but, unlike if Blizzard released Starcraft, they would not be exactly thrilled about it.
Third, why are u such an asshole to everyone who doesn't agree with you in the least way. I mean, a forums supposed to be about sharing ideas. That also means accepting them as other people's opinions.
Now to the point that I was going to make, i do think SC2 will come out on the 19th. The reason I think this is because
one: its in Korea
two: 10 yrs since new SC game
three: SC mmo would be retarded.
Why would an mmo be retarded. Well if they made it like WoW (correct me if im wrong, i dont play SC) then it would more than likely be a third person shooter if anything. I mean pvp would be stupid as (SC uses lasers right, i don't know anyway) people could shoot someone about on the other side of the map. Also there would be too many sides. There would be three, four if they added another race.
These are my ideas. You can rip them to shreds. Oh and if Im wrong about the SC concept, please correct me without making any derogitory statements as I'll say again, i dont play Starcraft.

If we were talking about how very ignorant you are, then I could see why you'd say that. But, if you see no reason to speak and defend your stance on the issue at hand, then frolic on home because there is no place for you here. This is a discussion of news and announcements; not a mindless blathering and poop throwing contest.
And Fingolfin is right. You've got nothing but unfounded speculations that give us no reason as to believe why you are right. If you don't care what people think, then don't speak at all, because no one is going to care what you think. But we know you do, because you wouldn't be so desperately trying to throw half-assed insults at me.
So instead I personally insult you, which I'm sure you've taken to heart, I'll enjoy your response to this.
I'm right about you, I'm right about WoW, I'm pretty much right about everything.
Well, I'm happy to tell you that my testicles have indeed descended. And your mom can vouch for that, since they were on her chin last night. And nobody likes you, because nobody agrees with anything you say. But I won't even waste my time outlining why you're an incompetent moron. Being the incompetent moron that you are, my words of wisdom would most likely go in one ear and out the other.
You look like your balls haven't even dropped, you would start shaking and stuttering in any kind of argument in person.
You should of never shown that picture, you're fucking pitiful, you look emaciated and have never seen the sun.
Don't forget to kill yourself!
What? Do you even now what emaciated means, or was it the word of the day on your calendar? Wait, you can't read! (oh, duh) I mean, last time I checked, muttonchops wasn't exactly just flesh and bones in his picture. This whole revelation about your illiteracy just explained why you write half-assed insults and threats in a news forum. It also explained why you have no proof to back up any of your speculations, cus you couldn't read them to begin with.
Also, in the picture, Muttonchops is slightly tan.

I've copied and pasted this from Penny arcade he argues for a Starcraft MMO rather than a Starcraft RTS, but notice how he like many other people from the planet earth have used the power of reason that it will be Starcraft related, be it MMO or RTS It will be a huge kick in the balls if it is a MMO game and not RTS.
Those are some good points, and if anything is pressuring Blizzard to continuously shoot out MMO's, it's Vivendi.
Now, he brings up two reasons why it would be a SC MMO.
Reason 1: Creating an MMO shifts the underlying structure and philpsophy of a company, making it less likely for them to leave the MMO genre.
Reason 2: WoW will die, and Blizzard wants to keep their subscribers to give them money, and they would do that through a new MMO.
The second reason holds very true, but not in the present. Contrary to what you might believe from reading the WoW-forums, WoW isn't dying, far from it. It has years to go still, and Blizzard will want to continue to gain alot of money out of it for as small a cost as possible.
If they were to intorduce a new SC MMO on the market, and the could keep WoW players leaving the ship, they could still lose money on the deal. If a player closes one account and opens a new one Blizzard will get the same amount of money, while they will have to host two MMO's. Not to mention the structural difficulties of running two MMO's at the same time.
Of course there's no doubt that a SC MMO would attract different and new people, but I wonder to what extent.
Reason 1 seems much more credible, if it is true. If anyone could add what they know regarding this point I'd appreciate it.
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.

Yes, those are good reasons, however, I doubt that Blizzard would want to pay for 2 different servers, one for WoW and one for SC if it becomes an mmo. Sure they would make loads of money due to pay to play, if they (most likely) use it. However, I am slightly confused as to which would make the most money for them, as that is what they are looking for:
SC as an mmo adding continuous millions but still taking some money away for the server
OR
SC as an rts without pay to play and using battle net, still adding millions to Blizzard
I suppose that the mmo would make the most moeny but as I said before, I think that SC would generally become a third person shooter if they made it like WoW. If what I just said is right about the shooting lasers in Starcraft (i don't know, don't play it) then, they may as well just release Starcraft: ghost as it is also jsut as anticipated.

Also, just a quick comment (sorry about the double post). I think that WoW will die off, not yet, if Blizzard continously does expansions for it. Sure expansions add something new, but if they are consistently adding new lands, races, classes, items, quests, etc., I believe that the WoW universe would become too complex with the overstuffing of new things. Just my opinion guys.

You need to allow players a chance to catch up. There's already so much new stuff on a regular basis, Blizzard is already aware that an expansion this early would just be overkill.
G4's Attack of the Show (AotS) reported today on "The Loop" that the game Blizzard will unveil on the 19th is a StarCraft MMO. It also stated that rumor has it that the game will be playable on the 19th and maybe released before the end of 2007.
Although I was hoping for Diablo 3, I'll be happy with any Blizzard game. Also, if you don't bleave me you can check their website www.g4tv.com and go to the AotS homepage and download the video, they store their shows on it.

it would be too early to release another mmo. I do see a good chance of having a SC MMO, but not yet. WoW lives, and it does very well. With the new hardcore stuff and the content that today is considered hardcore nerfed (next patch), more "casual" people will get access to loots, new mounts and much more in general. WoW wont be dying for at least a couple more years. Thinking of Blizzard development tactic, it would be right on time to release another MMO if WoW is dying at that time. Announcing it now would still appear too early though, right now everyone's happy with the new content (i'm having really much fun with my warrior now that i finally hit 70), instances, abilities etc. Announcing another mmo would be bad for their current money maker.
What would make more sense to me?
Starcraft 2 now, Starcraft MMO in a year (announced) and in 2-3 years released. Blizzard said they're going to support WoW for at least 5 years after release. 2 years have passed already and WoW is well supported as everyone knows (in matters publicity too - and it succeeded to have around 8 million active subscribers at the moment). I just dont feel its the right timing to announce another one.
I agree with you and it could be an old type game.

If it is a SC mmo, than there may be a better chance that diablo 3 wont be an mmo.
OR
It could be that diablo 3 has a better chance of being an mmo. I think I heard a rumor that Blizzard is gonna make all their games into mmos. So if SC becomes an mmo, than that rumor may hold some truth.
I dont know! *throws hands up into air* Ten more days though:D
