    Or explain in more detail in the first place...


    By the way this is a trolling post, it has nothing to do with D3 and will only cause trouble.
    Stop it. :mad:

    Ranim posted a message on Diablo 3 Release Date 12/1/2008 -Vivendi
    Diablo 3 was being produced right after LoD, the company was cut short and it took a year for blizzard to pick up where they started and do it their way. You can trust my words, i'm never wrong. 2003-4 is when Blizzard North shut down, blizzard picked up production in 2005, a little over a year after North was shut down.
    It's been in production for 5 years now.

    It's highly unlikely that they will release it this year, you all know how long they take to debug just for a release. I say Q3 2009

    Srsly guys i'm not trolling, i'm telling you the truth.

    Source is at the bottom of the post you quoted mate.
    Oh sorry, stupid me.

    I guess I heard wrong, I could have sworn they said it was longer though, must have taken their words out of context.

    Bits and pieces from the post-announcement press conference:
    • No release date as of yet.
    • Development in its "early stages" despite being underway for over four years.
    • Brand new in-house engine developed for Diablo III. Includes Havoc physics.
    • Co-op is fully integrated into the game's design.
    • Will also be released on Mac.
    • Similar in length to Diablo II
    • Takes place twenty years after Diablo II expansion pack.
    • Only fifty people working on the game at the moment. Content creation the current focus.
    • New Battle.net will debut with StarCraft II. Even more features by the time Diablo III launches.
    • No console release of Diablo III planned. Other Blizzard title staying on PC and Mac also.
    • Pay to play? Totally undecided, though it could vary between regions. For example, China may because of the popularity of internet cafes and the strict gaming laws that are meant to prevent people becoming addicted.
    • Could be up to 100 enemies on-screen at a time.
    • The ice splash page malarkey was Diablo all along, ditto on the eyes. I am vindicated. The penguin remains a mystery, however.
    • Hellgate: London-esque randomness is in, to an extent. Some maps and what have yous will be static.
    • Low-spec [computer] losers are being catered to.
    • World of Warcraft and The Legend of Zelda heavily influenced boss design and boss gameplay mechanics.
    • E-Sports support is a possibility. Team is attempting to form a business plan that works for that crowd.
    • No character customisation, just gender selection.
    • PvP will likely be included at release.
    • Voice communication will be improved.
    • Beta is a possibility.
    • "Potions are still in the game, they're just not as core an element. So there's a new health system here. Wilson says he actually tried a Halo-style shield system with regenerative health, but didn't put that in because it encouraged players to leave combat. Didn't want to implement a WoW-style health which encourages players to drink and creates downtime when out of combat. Wilson wants the health system to ensure combat, which is health globes were implemented."
    • One health pot restores all players in co-op.
    • Enemies can miss and get weapons stuck in scenery or world.
    • Player characters will be fully voice acted.
    • Four-to-five person co-op groups.
    • Respecs are likely to be included.

    Are you sure that's accurate Nuvia, I'm pretty sure they said it would be longer than D2 but a considerable amount. Can you paste the website that notes that?

    Diablo 3 could be 100x bigger then WoW, as long as every single area is just empty space like a lot of wow is. Diablo 3 should be full of interesting areas, not boring fields like wow.
    You are right, but wouldn't it be nice to have a few large open areas where you can fight hordes of monsters?

    I wish I had the dialogue of the QNA session after the announcement of D3, because it would answer nuvian, all I can say, without sources, is that the lead designer said the story would be bigger with an emphasis on length and epic scope.

    Right which was in 2003. So what I am assuming is that since then they have reworked Diablo into what we see now. So that would be close to 5 years in the making for the version Blizzard has been working on.
    I'm pretty sure they started work on it in 2005, can you site a source that says otherwise?

    you sir are absolutely correct, so i don't know what these people are talking about ;) lol 2005, he must be a 2010+ believer.
    It's clear that you did not read what I said, I said they began working on Diablo 3 AGAIN, meaning it was postponed when North was shut down.

    It was mentioned by blizzard that they have been working on D3 for close to 5 years. You can probably find out in some of the interviews or the official D3 FAQ. I forgot where I heard that info but I definitely know it was said by Blizzard.
    Yeah they started work on it at north right after LoD but when North was shut down they waited a year to start up again.

    When it came out though, Titan Quest absolutely crushed good systems at the time. Now though it runs well with everything maxed, with current and even older hardware. I would have to disagree with the graphics being better though. TQ's graphics were good, and they had nice shader effects but from what I saw in the D3 gameplay trailer, its not even close.
    I don't remember saying it was better, if I did i'll change that because it definitely isn't. It's just similar.

    sorry but unless you give me a source of where you heard work began on diablo 3 in 2005, i don't believe you and don't say shit you don't know.

    and to your question, no because its done in act's.
    Yes well if somebody would kindly be of use and help me find it that would be swell. I think one of the Admins here was the one that brought it up at the live QNA
