We've known about it for a while now tho. First they had a job listing about a new MMO team member years ago. Then there was a leaked chart with expected release dates for like the next 5 years.
[citation][nom]r_pad[/nom]OMG 2011 Q4 for diablo 3!!!I guess that's not bad, i was expecting 2012.[/citation]
Yeah, since Blizzard is so great with their scheduled release dates. If we see D3 in its final, released form before 2013, it will be a Festivus miracle.
[citation][nom]Pyroflea[/nom]I think an MMOFPS would probably be awful. I don't know how that would even work.[/citation]
You're forgetting that Blizzard is behind it. Given their reputation, it will probably be a lot of fun and incredibly addicting.
I know FPS rpg's work, so all they need to do is apply it to an MMO game model effectively, and this game would be fantastic, where the best players in the game are not the best because of time they play, but by how good at the game they are.
if it were a MMOFPS aimbots could not only be permanently banned, but possibly prosecuted. I love FPS's but botters make them no fun because you can't tell genuine talent from hacks. a MMOFPS would rock that world! I would even love a MMORTS!!!
[citation][nom]cpburns[/nom]Why must the new MMO be StarCraft related? Why not give Blizzard creative liberty to come up with something new?[/citation]
I think I remember reading that the new MMOG would be an original IP
Are you fucking kidding me, a Starcraft MMO would completely ruin the genre (aka Where the hell is WC4). Stop being retarded and don't ruin of one of the only good RTS's on the market scrubs.
[citation][nom]jgiron[/nom]what would be awesome is a StarCraft FPS!![/citation]
They already made one.
They never released it because even they admitted it sucked.
I'd say, anything coming from BLIZZARD (make it sound like "no-Activision") and their franchisees (is that spelled correctly? XD) would be full of win; and by full of win, way way way above average quality.
We all know it, we all love that.
Just make it happen before I'm dead Blizz; that's all I ask of life/God/FSM/Chuck 8)
[citation][nom]onzfeat[/nom]"The World of Warcraft movie is slated to hit theaters in Q4 2012"OMG![/citation]
