Well, unless they delay SC2 to be released in 2011, then D3 won't come out sooner.

Fact #1: New battle.net is launching with SC2.

Fact #2: Diablo 3 is confirmed not to come out this year. Officially. It's also said that in the next couple of years (three or so), they will be releasing one game a year.

So if you want to be moderately optimistic, then hope that D3 comes out in 2010, and no later than that. In August, I am 99% sure they wil announce the release date for SC2 and you can expect it sometime October or November this year.

The concerning part is that 'one game a year' may include the other two SC2 games, the new WoW expansion, and the new MMO game. I'm just hoping they meant one completely new game a year, and not just a 'new title'.

You are completely wrong. The interview that 1up and ign did he was talking about diablo series only. He said they can not do entire new games 1 a year but it can be done as expansions. That is a expansion a year for diablo, wow, and starcraft. Not one every three years. go read the article .

I wasn't referring to that. I'm not wrong, I keep every tiny bit of info released in the back of my head. When in doubt, you can safely assume that I know more than you do.

They said that D3 will not be out this year, but that they do have a release planned for this year. They also said that they plan to release one other game next year and so on. They didn't specify for how long will the trend of one game per year continue, so that is why I assumed it would be three years since they are working on three new games at the moment.

EDIT: P.S. I never said 'one game every three years' geez... I said one game a year probably for the next three years. You didn't even read what I said.

I am excited but at the same time not excited because i know i serious doubt we will get any big big info. If we are lucky a character class if we are extremly lucky. Release date .....Get F***ing real no way. Starcraft has been stated many times it will come out before D3. SO not until 2010 for D3 I would say Q3 or Q2 at earliest. But what i hope we do get soon is to see more of the D3 universe.

Dimebog I do not assume anything. But I do agree that D3 will be out after starcraft II. The release of the starcraft II beta will be a good sign for things to start picking up. I did read your entry just the way you worded it looked like you were counting expansions. No biggie

Are you talking to me with regards to sarcasm?

I said it was a possibility, not that I would like that!

Did you note the part in my post where I said specifically that I wasn't pointing this at anyone in particular?

This is awesome news. :thumbsup:

i would love to see one NPC that would make my day



edit...i did too

i would just like to know more about the mechanics of the game, not so much new content like new character/items/places/whatever.

qft ....

Someone asked for Act bosses. I hope they don't release any info on those until the game actually hits the shelves.

I'm really hoping they release some information about game mechanics. They might hint at one of the new characters, but I doubt they'll reveal that on the Blizzcast. I wanna know what they have decided on some of the new systems they're implementing. I.e. more info on the rune system, how mercs are handled, if they have finalized the skill trees and how those are officially being handled. I want to know about the environment and how it'll work between Acts and stuff. For example, do you have to run from one town to the next on a world map, and once you've been there you get the wp or something? Or are we gonna hop a boat with Meshif and sail east, or ride a caravan with Warriv?

It just seems to me that content such as, monsters, will get old fast. I want something to discuss. Something to think about.

I hope they talk about things we don't know in BlizzCast 8, and not iterating on things that's already been mentioned. I would like to know more about the different environments, cities and places we will encounter in Diablo 3. We've seen the world map, but that's it.

Well you could probably guess some of the stuff for the cities. We know theres New Tristram and Caeldum, and then we know there's Hell so that leaves just two to be guessed, and the Arreat Crater is probably going to be one of them so really theres just 1 unknown area. Concerning the actual place of course, not what its going to look like. I'm also assuming theres 5 acts, i don't know if thats official or not.

I want some info on the Prime Evils.

"3. You'll find out soon enough."

Soon enough? THAT'S NOT SOON ENOUGH!!!

Also what is the link to blizcasts?

Awesome! I can't wait for the new podcast, maybe they'll have some news on what we should be expecting in the near future.

Well, it suppose to have a lot of Diablo III coverage; it's been said so many places including here that this Blizzcast is mainly dedicated to Diablo III.
Other things they will probably just drop hints.

Exciting. So when you all say end of month I assume you mean this month right?

I'm guessing the 26th or 31st for some reason which I cannot place a finger on.

I almost fell after reading that bit about a new class 'soon enough'. Gawd! Hope the Blizzcast fills in these gaps.

Well, considering that we haven't had anything real substantial for almost 6 months (I mean large amounts of info) my personal feeling is they will give us some good stuff whenever Blizzcast 8 comes...hopefully soonish. I'm seriously re-watching Blizzcon panel sessions cause there is stuff in them that I haven't seen on youtube ones.
