I would prefer no monthly fees, but I would more than gladly pay one-time fees for new content. Though Jay Willson explicitly said that they won't be adding new content (like they do with WoW), so that's out of the question (to my sadness). It's basically going to be the core game, one expansion at some point, and that's probably it. Second expansion if we're ultra lucky.

Where did you find this statement ? this must be false, Blizzard will release content updates to Diablo 3 through patches same thing with Starcraft II... same thing with all games. Even Warcraft III FT got content update through patch. Diablo II 1.10 Patch was a content update if you think about it.

diablo 3 has its own style?
diablo 1 and 2 has, or they share the (realistic) style, 3 doesnt, unrealistic, lowpoly geometry with soft textures,
were have we seen that before?

Ronkis you seriously need to stop trolling, from looking at all your previous posts, it consist of flaming, trolling and breaking rules. Everything also negative about Diablo III, it feels like you don't even want a Diablo III, maybe you should get out of here ? since this is only for DIABLO FANS.

Ronkis, from reading your previous posts your the one insulting the diablo fans.

Hopefully a mod can get you banned already, and you broke some rules as well in your previous posts.

Graphics isn't everything, why do you think World of Warcraft, Warcraft 3, Starcraft, Diablo got so great and got so famous ? it was all because of great gameplay, features, innnovation, etc. When Diablo II came out it didn't have good graphics compared to the other games on that time, but look at it ? it's a great success, same thing happened to Diablo.

Do you even know majority who play Blizzard games doesn't have high end computers? why do you think people with old computers could play World of Warcraft, Warcraft 3. Other games you would already need a new computers. Blizzard wants everyone to play Diablo with there old computer's it's such a hassle to buy a new rig just to play a new game. This is how much blizzard cares for the casual people aswell.

You haven't even played the game, only seen videos, screens. Yet you already come to a conclusion the game would suck lol. Everyone at blizzcon enjoyed and had a great time playing Diablo 3. Not everyone has the same vision as you do. Whining and Complaining about pointless things, its like the same thing with Art Controversy, Blizzard knows what they are doing, have faith in them. They are the best company in the gaming business today.

Find another company with game of the year's of each game release for the past 10 years.

If it makes you happy, e-mail blizzard to let EA-Games handle Diablo, they are great at graphics but suck at everything else. lol.

Just some info.. almost all the Blizzard Employee's at Blizzcon wore the same t-shirt by the way.. It shows who and what they are supporting in the Starcraft II gameplay panel they even discuss alittle about the t-shirt art contreversy lol

what else can it be?

lol Even Rob Pardo wore the shirt

So Julian Wilson told us that you guys are looking monetize Battle.Net in some way. Is that right?

Rob Pardo: Wow, that's an evil way of putting it. Julian's turning into a business guy on me. Here's the way I would put it. We're definitely not looking at turning Diablo into a subscription based game. It's clearly not an MMO, so it's not appropriate to do a business model like that. The way we approach all of our games now, is we come up with what we think is a great game, and then we wrap the appropriate business model around it. If that's just a box price, then that's that.

With Battle.Net we're definitely looking at possible different features that we might be able to do for additional money. We're not talking about Hellgate or anything like that. We're not going to tack things on. I think World of Warcraft is a great example to look at. We charge people if they want to switch servers or if they want name changes, things that aren't core to the game experience, they're really just optional things that some people want. It takes us some development work to do it, so it makes sense to charge for it. We would never do something like say to get the full game experience, you'll have to pay extra.

Basically -- No P2P, and no microtransactions for actual things in the game

Close this topic NOT P2P

NO P2P good news for those people with money problems!

It looks its only for changing servers or renaming your characters no imbalance stuff

Sigh, Blizzard never officialy said Diablo 3 or Battle.net is going to be P2P, its the other gaming sites that are assuming it is..

I'll rather wait for an official announcement

Thou regardless il be buying diablo 3 even thou if its p2p! gonna be so fun

It's not even sure if its going to stay 4 players.

"The game is playable for the first time at Blizzcon, and it's playable in co-op with up to four players. When asked about what the upper limit will be for co-op play, he said that the final number is up in the air but they're currently looking at eight. "We're a little bit worried that if you go up to too many players that you're not really going to be playing together anymore. We want to make sure it's a great co-op experience where you really play with the people you're with, so we've just got to experiment and figure out what the optimal number is."

Yes 90 Missions i mean.

It's blizzard i'm pretty sure they can manage the 2 expansions, there are so many things they could add and do on those 2 expansions, they could pretty much add a new race, if they really want to.. Or add a new feature like Coop Campaign Missions from RedAlert 3. Yes balance is hard, but they can surely pull it off!

PEOPLE NEED TO READ BEFORE POSTING.

You don't need to buy the Zerg and Protoss Compaign games, you can still play MULTIPLAYER from the First game when they release it! They already stated you can play battle.net or Multiplayer with all 3 races on the First game..

And Rob Pardo already said each of this "Compaigns" will soley depend on the quality in it, if its just compaigns then it will be very cheap, if they are going to make it an ACTUAL expansion like many new units, maps, tons of new features, or even a new race, then the price will be like Expansion games.

Starcraft fans should be happy, because from what im seeing Starcraft 2 is going to have 2 expansions! Each of those 2 expansions already with 30 Full Compaigns! total 90 compaigns including the first.. I bet they can easily add new units or features in those 2 expansions like Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne or Diablo 2 LOD.

People need to trust and have faith in blizzard.

no updates for this ?

They already have different teams for each of the games.. Seriously its blizzard, they know what they are doing, they aren't Flagship nor EA. They have already over 2000 employee's from 50.. 12 years ago.
