Blizzard likes to keep alot of there information secret until there ready to release the information, saying this they could of been up to alot of work this last year!
By Blizzcon how far do you think the progress of this game has made?
my thoughts are this game will be around 60% complete by blizzcon.
Most likely more than 60%. They have the base down, they're just adding the filling. I can't really put a percentage on D3's progression, but they aren't completely new to the game.
i believe last year they may have been around 35-40% most of the main work at the start would be artwork, concepts and stuff like that, once all thats done progress would increase faster.
Well I think they have the main base of the game and the rest will be lots of tunning testing tuning testing tuning.
45% actually programing done.
60% in way of idea.

I am cheese. I am loved by all. I go great with everything. Other foods hate me because I take all the glory. Like Nachos..Their just jealous cause no one eats them unless Im there. Shit..I even ruined broccili's rep. Broccili kept talkin shit so I was like. " You know what?, I think I might melt myself on some Broccilli. See how those humans enjoy that green [sexual slur censored] now." Shit...Now,People dont even touch him, unless Im all over that shit! Ahhh..Its not easy, being cheesy.. Peace. Cheese Out.
By the time blizzcon comes around im guessing 75-85 % completion
and for the rest of you..... oh ye of little faith...

Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could
Theres no denying it. 100-105% complete. i.e. expansion is in production
Thats The Spirit !

I really doubt that it has reached 50% of overall progress. The skill runes thing must be so much work. Because of skills being able to be customised by runes it means that each skill for every character needs like 20 ideas and animations and graphics for how each rune will effect that skill. Probably a months worth of work for each character.
also a lot of things still seem to be in the conceptual stage, they will need to be implemented, tested and then revised. each of those steps takes time.
some thing such as the game engine, story line, gameplay concepts may be over 50% but I really doubt that the overall game has reached 50%.
Looking forward to a 2012 release since SC2 is still in flux last I heard. Yes aiming for this year for SC2 but I think BNet2 is the holdup.
If they release SC2 this year the D3 will problably come out next year. One release per year they've said.

Noone say that every skill can be imbued by every rune. And noone said that theres going to be like 20 runes.
The game engine must be something like 90% complete. In January/February they said that the forth class was already been tested in a place holder and the last one were in the initial phase (art concept, background, general line to skills...). By now they must be already finishing the last classes. I can't imagine they testing the game, creating gameplay videos and demos with one half of the engine.
The storyline must also already be complete - they need it to build acts. Since they announced the game will have 4 Acts they must have all the storyline in hands.
Gameplay concept may not be full, but i believe it's in a very advanced stage. How they will creat the classes without knowing the gameplay concepts ?
Thats why i believe the game is in 40~60% and will be released next year.

Trying to use percentage here is pretty hard.
But, but, but...the world ends in 2012! D:
