any news on d3

[Ares]

any rumors on what the new chars are going to be for diablo3? i was just wondering since you all seem to keep up with these rumors maybe someone heard about a new char?

[Arc]

diablo three will most likely not happen considering the team working for blizzard north was relocated for some reason if it does happen i hope to god its not like WoW

[QC_Pat]

I think the story's over...we beat diablo and baal...who would be left to pwn??? tyrael??? cain??? come on...

[Arc]

lol agreed qc, diablo is slowly dying off and blizz couldnt care less

[Ares]

no possibly like diablo corrupted the soldier that killedhim maybe baal corrupts Tyreal.. or Izzy convinces him to join up for evil.. you never know man you can always think of something.. and i dont think the story sghould be finished

[Arc]

izzys dead tho haha u killed him three times in the game :P

[Ares]

are you saying blizzard cant come up with a story for diablo3? i highly doubt it.. im so sure they can think of something.. it isnt hard ..they are just mainly focused on WoW

[Arc]

they can, its jsut that they dont want to

[Darkemperor121]

I heard about d3 a while ago...it said something of Tyrael getting you to kill the prime evils for him so he will be the only evil thing left so he can take over the world. it said that there would be 2 new characters: Angel and Devil. But i heard about this a few months ago


Edit: Or maybe all the merchants like Charsi,Gheed,Akara,Fara,Lysander and all of them turn evil!!! and then they will be the bosses! =D lol

[XKazeCloudX]

baal resurected kill him again lol i just want something to boost diablo popularity up. what i dont want is complete new way of items like, i still want to use hoto spirit arachnid for casters, same runes and stuff. i dont want new items. i only want more popularity in this game. and more noobs to make fun of hahaha

blizzard will make a d3, but it will be in alot of time. they pride their series of games (SC, WC, D), and they setup the story of d2 for it to have another one in the series. all the money in pc games now though is in the MMO project, wow was their first, and they are still working on it to perfect it. once its done, they'll move on again. go ahead and tell me im wrong, because i know that there alot of stupid people and alot of stupid people are "so sure" about their beliefs. tell me im wrong, but when it happens lick a nut

[Arc]

thats the thing about mmorpgs, they want them to be perfect but they never will be, there is always so much you can add and change, if d3 do come out i wouldnt expect it til around 2012 at the earliest

[Hp~Kp]

bah, whenever it comes out i'd still buy it atleast to just see what its like.

[Arc]

me 2 if its not like 50 dollars for the game then you install it and its like "please enter your 16 digit gaming card number"

[Hp~Kp]

i hope they dont make d2 mmorpg, that would kill it completley

[XKazeCloudX]

oh man i hate the pay monthly thing >_< and OMGOSH 2012! T_T ill be working fulltime somwhere already...

[Arc]

blizz is in no hurry to make a d3 and i doubt they ever will hurry to make it, look at the gaps between d1 and d2 like what 6 years?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blizzard_North

Blizzard North was originally an independent company. It was established in 1993 under the name Condor, with the founders being Max Schaefer, Erich Schaefer, and David Brevik. The company was purchased and renamed by Blizzard about six months before the release of their hit game, Diablo, in 1996. Diablo proved to be a considerable success, and the still-more successful sequel Diablo II was released in 2000. An expansion pack followed the year after.
On June 30, 2003, several key employees left the company to form the new companies Flagship Studios (8 moved here) and Castaway Entertainment (9 moved here). Two unannounced games were in production at the time, with one forced to be canceled due to around 30 employees leaving the company in total. Geoff Fraizer of Blizzard Entertainment has since said the canceled game was a "Blizzard North kind of game", from which some draw the conclusion that "Diablo 3" has been canceled. Blizzard North had only worked on Diablo games since Blizzard's acquisition of Condor until the time of this exodus. The resignations were partly due to a conflict with Blizzard Entertainment's owner Vivendi Universal, and partly due to employees wishing to start something new.
On August 1, 2005, Blizzard Entertainment announced the shutting down of Blizzard North, saying that it will move its remaining employees to its head offices to resume work on an “unannounced project" which most believe is the third installment in the Diablo series.

but think of the vast improvements, in D1 you had to walk. yo ass. everywhere. walking. and not the power walk kind either, the "grandma just got her hip replaced" walk. in D1 there were negative prefixes and suffixes and less classes, D2 all positve except for the very rare "drain life" and 7 clases all unique each with their own skills to learn noless

Yes, the wait might be long, excedingly long, but think of wine. If you only let it sit 6 months, there's no flavor. 6 years, you got the start of something marvelous. 30 years, you got some "oh hell yes" flavor If they just gave us something to shut us up, it would most likely be lacking in many areas. But if they take they time, LAWD JESUS, (begins to shout, Baptist church style)
