Blizzard Establishes "Team 3"
Gamasutra reports that Frank Pearce of Blizzard Entertainment has just confirmed that the company is working hard on another new title... and it's not World of Warcraft or Starcraft II. 40 people are working on Starcraft II and 40 people are working on this secret Team 3 project, so it's definitely another big one. According to Pearce, "Team 3 is working on something really awesome. I can’t give you any hints, but it’s totally awesome."
With Blizzcon '07 coming up this August 3-4, people have high hopes that this mystery game will be unveiled.
Hmmm, Team 3... Diablo 3... could it be? Join our discussion!
I apoligize Just really mad they didn't anounce it =(. I take the negative thing back.
He needs to hold up a sign that says "Announce Diablo 3, Blizzard!!!"
I was thinking more along the lines of setting up a few snipers.
I was just about to say that too... I didn't want to though because i didn't want to sound dumb.
But, I think that is baal in one of those banners.
It was in the shot where the guy was holding up the teamliquid.net sign.
11:31 - Pearce now mentioning Wrath of the Lich King will be playable, as well as a number of panels that'll be discussing it.
11:29 - Showing video now. Presumably from Northrend. Shows one zone that's in a perpetual state of forest fire, dungeons with skulls breathing flame, snowy mountains, absolutely gigantic yeti. Nwo there's a human running through a green-tinted forest - Death Knight Hero class shown - he blasts out black and purple orbs of energy that smash into the ground. Final shot is of Arthas sitting on an ice throne.
11:28 - Level cap raised to 80. New skills for all classes. Siege weapons, and buildings that can be destroyed with those siege weapons. Inscription, a new profession, can permanently enhance character spells and abilities. Can mod hairstyles and dances. Northrend will have 5 man, 10 man, 25 man dungeons. Hundreds of new quests. Will include the Death Knight hero class.
11:26 - Announces officially The Wrach of the Lich King, the second expansion for WoW. Will introduce the area of Northrend, and will bring in Arthas. Arthas is going to threaten "all life on Azeroth"!! Oh noes!
Hmm... Im excited now. =)
More girls are on the way guys lol.
Isn't that time right now? Vivendi must have been a bit late on their precdicted time for Lich announcement.
I hope to God that that isn't the time right now in the U.K.... Taht would mean they have another announcment!
Can any one check the time right now in the UK?
That's right isn't it?
Rofl I think you're right.
They are shots in the live feed. In one of the shots it shows a crowded gaming hall and in the background it looks like a banner of baal hanging from the ceiling.
