I live in Holland and I was able to see the first bit of the podcast, shame I had to leave my computer, and I havent got the time to check if it works on mobile devices. Guess I'll look at youtube tomorrow.

"No release are expected in 2011, 2 are expected in 2012."

Expect Diablo 3 in 2012. AS I THOUGHT! Sorry I'm gonna rub this all over everyone's faces because I've been saying this forever..

2012.. nOO

WHAT!!!?!!?!!!?!!!!

if im not mistaken, the activision guy talked about the games coming this year, and no mention of diablo 3, also a mention of two blizz titles in 2012
-this is mid conference call posting-

So.. Where is the updates on this site? I cant listen you know.

Edit: Sorry, saw the news on the mainsite, though you should write new posts about it.

listening to force now live cast they said 2012 for now will see... maby they got it wrong

Can nothing ever go right in video games? FFxiv is a steaming pile a crap, Sony online's been down for weeks, Console games lick pouch anyways, and now the news that we will be waiting around for another 9 months to play this game.

Its just a constant stream of letdowns.

q3 launch, still going for 2011 though, maybe d3 beta will be shorter, and q3 includes within 2 months time so...

on a side note, anyone else horrified by the new spyro concept? new activision low, buy the other characters as real life toys WTF

Blizzard is now talking. Updating OP. About to talk about D3.

I'm assuming they mean the 3rd Quarter of the Calendar year, which would be July-Sept timeframe at the earliest.

Gotta admit, I'm disappointed that I'm disappointed.

Thoughts/comments?

Edit, changed time frame to July-Sept, which Bashiok has confirmed.

Just to be clear, this means the External Beta will START no sooner than SOMETIME in the 3 month window starting July to September.

The slideshow pic says it all everybody can finally celebrate D3 Beta starts THIS Q3, June-Oct. http://imageshack.us/f/683/imagepzal.jpg/

So what may I ask is internal testing? Like is it just a bunch of guys from blizzard testing it out? Or is it something else entirley?

err q3 is july-sept last i checked

Yea. Q3 is beginning of July to end of September, so still pretty much a summer beta. And internal testing is pretty much just people under NDA and people from in the company testing the game I'd assume.

2012 release. Called it for the past 2 years. They say they're aiming for a 2011 release, but won't sacrifice quality to meet the window. Which means it won't happen, I know I'll get shit for saying that but I truly would go all in on a Q1-Q2 2012 release.

That is all.

well if they mean fiscal year then q3 = 1 april - june 30

keeping up hope

i imagine this would be a q2 results call if that were the case, as is wouldnt this already be a month late?
are we looking at august-oct beta?

bashiok confirmation first page, july-sept

This is great news!

what the hell, i started this thread. why the fuck does skarin1993 have the first post.

can i get a moderator to PM me ASAP.

Edit: I just realized they re-named another thread and folded my post into this one. And I don't like that.

Anyway, to confirm, The soonest we'll see the external beta is July.

Well hopefully we get the beta on the early end of Q3. Either way, at least we'll be getting (hopefully) consistent updates in the form of new systems until the beta comes out. And the lack of questions about D3 is probably because 'Beta in Q3 2011' doesn't really lead to many questions.
