I would love it if, after you kill Baal on the new ladder, a new, awesome cinematic happened following the destruction of the Worldstone. Imagion that, it picks up the story after what happened there. That would be a 100% Diablo 3 is coming lol.
Yes that would be awsome but i wont get to see it couse i dont play expansion
CLASSIC FTW!!!

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
Speaking of teasing, wouldn't it be cool if blizzard tomorrow reset the ladder, released an awesome patch and announced that there was going to be a game announcement at the wwi, all in a row?
I'm pretty sure that won't happen though.
Ohh great idea.
-It shows Tyreal Destroying the worldstone and then it stops, and turns to cain and some random npc's around a fire at night.
Cain: and that's when he destroyed the worldstone, and Terror was finally destroyed.
Random kid: and what happend next!
Cain: well that easy* zoom in on eyes* Daiblo..Returned.
- That could also be a good trailer for WWI -

That would be awesome. i can just imagine something like this.
-Tyreal destroying the world stone, and then it turns to cain* much older * At a campfire, with random people around him.
cain: and that's when he destroyed the worldstone, and terror was destroyed.
Kid: what happend next?
Cain: that easy* close up of eye's * Diablo...Returned.
-end-
i can strangly also see something like this for a diablo 3 announcment at WWI , kinda like starcraft 2 with the marine.

that just gave me a chill, you should work for blizz
but there is no way they would be able to add a cinematic. the cinematics are read off the disks, or you have to install them. i like the idea someone said about the standard of heros being used as a new cube recipe. it would awesome if it opened a portal to a room with giant letters saying something about the upcoming wwi.
Haha, I've been lurking on this site for a few months now, but i simply HAD to register once you mentioned d2 classic. I absolutely LOVE IT! When the ladder resets, you'll find me on USWest (unless they decide to add an Australasian gateway for us Aussies!)

ya ya that was me........lol. (getting full of myself)
well if they wouldnt be able to put a cinematic in. then could they even make the screen go black and have letters saying diablo 3 announcement soon?
oh.......i got it. letters on the screen will come up saying diablo III announced at wwi. lol im pychic.
Well, I could even talk seriously and personally about sex without saying something akin to, "My girlfriend and I have had sexual intercourse not once, not twice, but thrice. During these times I had inserted my penis in and out of her vagina and ejaculated accordingly. I gently sobbed afterwards while she held me in her arms. This has all brought us closer together."
Lol you can't honestly belive that anything you said there is true, or at all "likely"?
1) No more people won't buy it for "the singleplayer mode", Multiplayer is where the big games are at. and diablo III will be biggest or atleast top3 biggest existing I bet.
Sorry. Diablo 3 will never pass 10 million people logged on at once. I believe as of 2004, the max Battlenet had as a WHOLE was 12 million players. The Diablo franchise and battlenet will be popular, but believing that it is going to beat the juggernaut MMO of online gaming is silly.
Edit: For clarification, the key word here is AT ONCE. Certainly millions will log on, but the majority will probably play very casually before moving on. It will be a big multiplayer game for a while, but expecting it to topple top name MMOs is a bit optimistic. Certainly Diablo 3 could sell that many copies, but how many of those will transition to online accounts? Even half is generous number.
2) NO - people will pick one of them, as both will require alot of playtime no-one will have time enough to be good at both games at the same time
Diablo 3 will most likely not require a subscription and can be played casually. While I am sure that a player will be able to invest hundreds of hours playing the content over and over, if the game follows in the tradition of its predeccesors, it will be able to be completely beaten in 10-20 hours. You have to remember that not everyone is a hardcore gamer. Most who log on WoW are casual gamers.
Aside from that, many WoW players are not even Diablo 3 fans. Blizzard has done a great thing with WoW by bringing literally MILLIONS of new people who have never gamed before into the market with that game.
3) How can u be so sure its gonna have a beginning/middle/end, I'm kinda leaning toward it gonna be a MMO...
We'll see, but following the precedent the franchise has set, this is unlikely. As many other Diablo fans have pointed out, another fantasy (m rated, no less) MMO would not capitalize on profit for Blizzard, so it is unlikely.
4) NO - Diablo won't compete with wow, or okay ofcourse it will to some limit, but that is valid for Super Mario BROS aswell, all games are "competing" with eachother...
bethink this:
I am glad we agree.
a) Diablo III won't be hear for atleast 3 years IF it's announced @ june 29 in france/WWI Diablo has partially another fanbase
I believe, that with the release of all the recent Warcraft titles that the Warcraft fanbase, is in all probability, bigger than the Diablo fanbase.
c) World of warcraft is old. Super old. It is starting to losecompetition, not that much today but it have already started... Look at what games are being released: Age of Conan - 1 million subscribers the first days - will growth enormously within time since its major problem today is the requirements of the PC you need to play the game (huge requirements). Soon pc's will be better/cheaper = more players. and the game is new = increasing population ofcourse.
I actually own AoC, so don't spoonfeed me that load of garbage. The game will run fine on most desktops made within that past two years (that don't have a PoS factory graphics card.) And it did not have 1 million subscribers. It SHIPPED 1 million copies. They would be lucky to sell half of that. Furthermore, within the first 3 weeks it has lost 30% of its fanbase.
Warhammer online - Do I need to say more???
Yea. Have you seen the vidoes/screenshots? The game looks as outdated as WoW. People coming back from playing open beta specials are saying the graphics look "about as good as WoW." Due to this, as long as WoW can keep coming up with bright ideas (and blizzard is more than capable of that) then the age of WoW will not factor into the competition with WAR.
And so on... This means Blizzard will lose customers to other MMO's, what do they do to win them back? fight, as in releasing new games/sequels... (see: diablo 3/diablo MMO).
This has been my point, or did you never catch on to that? Blizzard only has to fear competition from other MMOs. Age of Conan and WAR look like failures, which is sad because I followed both for quite some time. Bioware looks like the next up to bat.
If Diablo 3 is not an MMO, then the majority of players will buy it without cancelling their WoW subscriptions (except the fanbois) because simply put - Diablo 3 can be played casually, WoW costs money and usually can not.

Battle.net's total worldwide subs on at the same time hover at 150,000... if you are counting bnets total boxsales, then if you compare that to wow, then wow has about 15-20 milliobn box sales - wows subs are active users, not total boxsales
hope i ddint confuse anyone lol, but yeah, diablo won't ever surpass wow, but it could surpass on boxsales =p because some people play single player only
Yeah but what he meant 10mil people on at once. Sure the sales are going to be in the millions, but there are going to be people who are going to be online everyday, then people who come online every other day or when they have time, but not all at once.
my post was too confusing, i touched on too many different areas lol but yeah i agree, d3 wont ever have 10 million active online players.. now if there si a diablo mmo, that won't be on bnet, and that Could have 10 million subs
Make sure everyone clicks on the 'gem activated' button after the patch... hehe you never know
