Starcraft 2, Diablo 3 confirmed

[Agent.M]

I already guessed they had 3 unannounced projects a week or 2 ago.
-Console team is making an unannounced game. These guys are the acquired Swingin Apes Studio's that were making Sc:G for 2 years then it was put on hold.
-Diablo team is making an unannounced game. These guys made Diablo's obviously... All jobs are RPG oriented
-Core(Blizzard Entertainment team) is making an unannounced game. These guys made the RTS's, all the jobs are RTS oriented(RTS Level Designer, Low Poly modeler)

You can figure this out by looking at there hiring page.

Yah as much as I would love a SC mmo Ill put money down that its SC2 rts they're working on.

That's really a given though. I doubt they would change StarCraft in any way that would make us avid gamers pissed.

 

[Leviticus]

I hope that Blizzard makes Starcraft II as much unlike Warcraft III as they possibly can. IE no heroes.

StarCraft Ghost??

StarCraft Ghost??

I was actually looking forward to Ghost... :\

I'm really eager to play StarCraft 2... but I hope it is different from WarCraft 3 in its gameplay. I don't want all the focus on the bloody Hero units. I want a big unit count and lots of and lots of air/space craft, marines, tanks, ect... to send en-mass at the enemy. Not just one or two 12 member squads each lead by a hero. The thing I didn't like about WarCraft 3 is it did not feel Epic the way StarCraft did. Seeing tiny armies attack one another just isn't as dramatic as watching the large armadas/swarms of StarCraft go head to head.

yes, I agree completley.

Starcraft needs to be all about huge convential forces and epic strategy gameplay. But, the original starcraft did have quite a few hero-like units. I basically just want a scaled up and bigger version of starcraft, with massive maps, tons of units and simulation-style gameplay rather than rockpaperscissors.

but who am I kidding? This is blizzard. They will give us a poorly made 3d remake with heroes and superpowers and tiny unit counts.

 

[Langolier]

The Hero units were strong in their HP counts and standard attacks, but not so much so that they dramatically over-shadowed the rest of your force or that they alone could turn the tide of a battle.

 

[Lucid]

In Blizzard I trust.

They won't **** their fans over.

 

[Zeus]

I really, really want starcraft 2. If they make it they better not **** it up its the best RTS game ever made (IMO)

 

[JoeCLawrence]

Starcraft 2: Awesome, certainly took them long enough.
Diablo 3: Meh, not much of a Diable fan personally.
Something else: Could this mean a WOW expansion, or is this something completly different? Interesting, regardless.

WoW is already getting an expansion. That is an announced project.

With Sc:G on hold and the Console team hiring they are most certainly making a console game.

Ok, so I bite on the Diablo 3 thingie, I've seen many people talk about it, heck I've even seen a potential box art of it, but how big are the odds of one of the games being StarCraft 2?

Pretty big if you ask me

Why is that?

 

[Puzzlemaker]

Why is that?

Go find my post about starcraft 2 being released...

Seriously, sooo many people want it. SC is one of the most-played RTS's, and its been around for quite awhile!

If Blizzard could make a sequel of StarCraft due to those reasons, they would have made it a long time ago. I think they're afraid of doing another StarCraft, due to the first game being so perfect. It would be a let-down if the sequel happened to be not as revolutionary as the first game. People are most likely gonna keep saying that the first game was better no matter how good the sequel turns out to be.

I believe one apon a time a Blizzard employee said this. It would be a rather difficult take to make a game like Starcraft let alone a better one.

Or maybe after making Brood War the RTS team decided to make WC3 and TFT. The RTS team has been making a game since TFT.
