Diablo 3 News Watch
The goal of this thread is to put the rapidly growing amount of news and rumors that are building up around Diablo 3 possibly being announced at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational.
Re: Blizzard's Worldwide Invitational
Last year Blizzard announced Starcraft 2, this year many rumours are floating around that a Diablo 3 announcement is going to take place.
It would make sense to use this event to announce what millions of fans have been waiting for.
Also, i would like to point out that June 29th is the Diablo 2 release date anniversary. What a perfect day to announce the next Diablo.
Re: Blizzard Job openings
There is a large assortment of job postings for some "Top Secret" game. Many of the postings begin with this "The team behind Diablo I and II is looking for a". It's obvious that they are working on another game, and hopefully the team behind Diablo I and II are working on III lol.
New job postings as of 3/14 - 4/5 of the job listings that day were Diablo related.

Woo! Off topic?
is there a topic to this thread? no not really lol...
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone was actually fighting over this a month or two ago (The "World of Sanctuary" thing.)
The first line was on topic; don't blame him- he knows not what he does xD
i love going off on tangents
Is that meaning that there WILL be one?
Lol. He did fuck his wording up badly didn't he?
I almost said to go make an introduction thread but then checked and realized you've been around longer then me.
Side note: Medieval is kinda worshiped around here so you might get flamed for pointing out errors he says.
W-World of Warcraft!!!??? OH GOD!!! Pay to play sucks!.... Ah well, do you think they will put a charge on Battle.net? I heard those rumors are recirculating since the guys at Blizzard have not decided whether or not to put a monthly/bi-monthly charge on B.net. (and no, I don't have the link, you'll just have to find it yourself.)
You are legally allowed to play online via Battle.net for life when you purchase the game. Therefore, Battle.net will be free forever.
The real question is about this new "Battle.net 2" that is rumored to be "in the works." That could really fuck us over.
MedievalDragon, I think you should start a new thread discussing this. It might make a difference. :confused:
Aye. Fifty dollers a year would be much better then stretched out over the year. (Plus thats alot cheaper then 15 dollers a month. ;))
Though, ask yourself, is it right? These games have always been free to play, is it really right to make them pay to play all of a sudden? Is it?...
And you can't make such a thread...why?...
I'd much much rather think of Guild: Wars.
Yes, there was something about that somewhere in one of the posts on this site, I remember reading something like they haven't decided yet and they may make pay-to-play for certain regions or something like that. Good luck finding it on here, though, hehe.
And on the payment thing, it would be nice if they'd let you have like a month fre (which I think they do in WoW, your first month or something, or atleast that was availible in the new SC Battle Chest) and then you only had to pay like 100 bucks for life time play, like LOTR online. Even though it looks monstrous upfront, it would save you a ton in the end, and it would be less of a hassle, because you wouldn't have to keep paying over and over again.
Yes, me too!
Or they could not charge a fee at all. If they do, I suppose you could always write your local congressman. That always make a difference.
