Universe of Starcraft

Who would buy this is there was such a thing? With the sucsess of WoW i'm sure it would become monstrously sucessful, and there could be a discount or premium service for those already playing WoW (like only a few dollars more a month) imagine playing as a zergling/zealot or firebat! there would be infinate possibilities. And instead of getting a mount you could get a vulcan or a goliath or maybe even a siegetank

Nah, people will just think Blizzard are milking the MMO craze :|

One MMO is enough for me, Babyheadcrab.

That sucks. Id never play it. It wouldnt make... sense? WoW does, because theres a huge backstory to it, defined locations, cities, etc. I dont want to be a firebat walking into the forest to level up against wolves it doesnt make SENSE.

 

[Lemonking]

wouldnt Blizzard cut their selfs when they would release a Star Craft Online Game?
still a very cool idea it would be

 

[BRODIEMAN2k4]

Blizzard has enough problems running WoW, they don't need another one. And gh0st is right, it wouldnt make that much sense.

nice idea in theory, but in reality it couldn't work. Unless everyone had to pick a human side and it was done more like planetside, and then it would become a tad dull.

It COULD work, Remember this is Blizzard...guys...
But I think before we see a Starcraft MMOG we would need Starcraft 2.

Starcraft has a pretty good backstory aswell and one that could very well be suited for a MMORPG...you wouldn't be a firebat going into the woods to kill wolves...but you'd go their to kill zergs or other hostile creatures that are more sutiable to the game world.

actually protoss could also be a playable race...but Zerg definitly wouldn't work with the story since they're not intelligent creatures beside the hivemind and those lesser hives(forgot what they were called). so that's two playable races- factions within the human and protoss society would have to make up for the lack of more playable races. and I don't see why the game would have to be like planet side at all.

the main reason why I don't see this happen anytime soon...is that Blizzard needs to focus on WoW before moving on...also I think it's pretty hard/expensive for a company to run two MMORPGs side by side...

If they set it so each server was its own planet, that you were all human of sorts, (and maybe protoss) and against the zerg in more mission based worlds. I doubt anyone would want to be a zerg though, it would be pretty limiting unless they introduced more advanced zerg, which would sorta spoil the thing. Starcraft would just fit a planetside type game more than a true MMORPG like WoW.

Starcraft could also just be an FPS like Alien versus Predator.

I wouldn't buy it, I would be to busy slapping blizzard up for not making Starcraft 2.

Sc:G my friend.(3rd person sc from a ghost named Nova...got delayed.. 3 times? Oringally started by Nihilistic, blizzard just is doing out of game cinamatics, press annoucnments, and a few other things. Eventually they switched it over from Nihilistic to Swinging Apes...if you see the vidoes...you might relize why.... Videos are to show off some of your best stuff....Nothing in there was......great... Swining Apes has yet to have blizzard release anything they did on the game so far)

 

[Lucid]

No no, Nothing like Sc:G.
I mean with interconnect storylines.
Play as Terran, Protoss, and the Zerg.
All with set goals and the like.
You can utilize the abilities that each race has, and choose what unit you would want to play as.

Well just play NS for now...will always remind me of a little Sc.

I know what you mean.
x_X to much work.

Dont be so thick, you honestly think i'd assumed you'd be hunting wolves in such a game... starcraft has it's OWN setting you know i'm assuming it's a totally different game with totally different creatures! after all starcraft and warcraft both have totally different creatures! hell besides the fact that they are both rts they have absolutely nothing in common (besides the blizzard mechanics seen in they're rts games) the setting of starcraft is a vast one filled with MANY creatures and inhabitence just like warcraft, dont be rediculous...

 

[Cole]

Well what would be nice is that the Xel'Naga
(The Xel'Naga guilding the Protoss and Zerg in there technology(THEY DID NOT MAKE\GUILD TERRAN TECH)).
had created many species before the protoss and zerg. Many failed species. It would be nice to actually be in a first person perspective and possibly see some of these....low minded creatures.

But you could do alot of infiltration missions. I mean if they spent alot of time on it you could sure make it quite a game.

Being a Ghost, like a splinter cell style ghost and getting into other terran bases stealing information.

I mean afterall there are many terran factions.

You could be a marine holding up a defense that the zerg were storming, it would be nice. I mean you ever see the BW cinamatic? If they could recapture that atmosphere..it would be amazing.....No..Breathtaking.


Then again... they could really only make it terran. I mean possibly the protoss.


But either way I want sc2 first and I want to see what happens. I want to see what happens with the hybrid. Starcraft left a cliff hanger with the secret mission. A cliffhanger.....almost a perfect cliffhanger.
