Blizzard.com Hinting at Starcraft 2 or World of Starcraft?
 

http://www.blizzard.com/

Take a look and make your own conclusions. They seem to be emphasizing starcraft on their website. Startcraft 2 or World of Starcraft seems to be pretty guaranteed =P.

All hail the queen bitch of the universe!

Actually, they are going through the timeline. day1.jpg has warcraft 1 and 2, day2.jpg has diablo, day3.jpg has starcraft. They're planing on unveiling something big, no doubt, but it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with SC.

Then why are they placing emphasis on Starcraft?

Did you actually read my post? Starcraft is today's emphasis, Diablo was yesterday's, and WC was Sunday's.

Damnit! I was distracted and started reading their employment information...

I think they'll make some kind of new starcraft game. Too many people want it too badly for them to just forget about it.

It better be starcraft. Oddly enough, I don't want another diablo, and I don't really want a new game with a new storyline all together.

Meh, they will prolly come out with a Starcraft before another story line, though another new game could be good.

Diablo 3!!!!!

NO.

I dont need to be readdicted to ANYTHING diablo for another 5 years.

SPeaking of which, i ahve to perm my chars.

Just as long as it's not another WOW expansion being announced.

They already have a trailer for the new exp to wow...

Yea...thats just too many expansions imo. If it was 1 a year I could see it, but them announcing it, seems thats its going to be way to fast.

As I predicted it would be, today is D2.

Better not be World of Starcraft. Blizzard's already got a cash cow.

It won't be a new expansion released - look at the games, and you'll see that they're all full games, yes? Not an expansion in sight.

http://www.starcraft2.com/

Blizzard have owned that site since 2003, but until Monday it redirected to Blizzard.com

The announcement, by the way, is expected to be on Saturday.

I concur.

It still does.

No it doesn't. If it did, then the address bar would show www.blizzard.com, but it doesn't, it shows www.starcraft2.com

They've both got the same countdown on them.

Snaps. It's probably starcraft 2. That's what everyone's expecting with a very small minority split on world of starcraft and diablo 3 =P.

Ahahah @ dekard cain quote.

Just a few more days!!

With that type of leadup it would seem to be an announcement of a new IP.

Actually, it does. If you click the picture, it's the blizzard site, but without changing the domain name. It's a different kind of redirect.

There's no more evidence for Starcraft 2 than there is for Diablo 3 or any other game.

But I can tell you this. Blizzard will not release another MMORPG this soon. They would be stepping on their own toes, and that's never good. They could do a starcraft MMORTS or something along those lines, but World of Starcraft would be retarded for them to do as an MMORPG. Not that I'm saying the IDEA would be bad, it would probably be a sweet game, but WoW players would have to decide between playing WoW or WoS, and most of them would probably choose the newer game. WoW would effectively die, and blizzard would simply shift it's customers.

My guess is, they'll have a new RTS(Starcraft 2), a single and small scale multiplayer game(Diablo 3, not as an MMORPG), or they will release a completely new game from a completely new series.

It could just be a new expansion for WoW, but that's stupid. It's hard to say what it is, anyway, because there's no evidence toward any of it.

An MMORTS would be hard to pull off, unless they do like Soul Calibur and have an AI that mimics you when you're not playing. Even so, if they managed to pull it off, it'd be something I'd try.

K_A can tell you this.

There's already at least one MMORTS on the market that I know of. The name slips my mind, though.

Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, whatever.

I would welcome either.

I thought they already announced another expansion for Wow.

Nah, the way that they are making this, it seems like they are going to unveil something either new or very long awaited.

A new wow xpac just came out... don't think anyone but the nerds are rearing for a lvl 80 cap

They announced that expansions were looking to be at a "1 per year" rate, but we know Blizzard has deadline problems.

I hear that, I've dropped tons of gold into my tanking gear/etc, not ready for it to be outdated quite yet.

Also, I don't think Blizz wants to make The Black Temple into the next Naxx by only having it out a short time before the next expansion hits to make it obsolete.

Planetside + Starcraft?

It's definelty Starcraft 2. It's going to be released in Korea.

Fucking morons.

Excuse me?

Everyone seems to think that all the "evidence" points to a new starcraft game. Knowing Blizzard, they're most likely just doing that to throw people off.

But regardless, you know just as little as everyone else, and anything is possible with Blizzard, it might be a completely new game for all anyone knows. But, we're not "fucking morons" because you seem to think you know everything. Fucking moron.

It's going to be announced in Korea, that's a definite. And I think it's pretty much given that it'll be released in Korea sometime, too. But not exclusively.

Well I think what he's getting at is Koreans love starcraft and it's being announced in Korea. Obviously that means it will be Starcraft 2.

Boviously. I must admit, I forgot to turn my logic circuits on when I was replying. So sorry.

It's going to be an update on the warcraft movie. GG.

That makes no sense. It has to be a game of some sort. Why else are they going through their past hits on that splash site?

blah blah blah

Shut up. It's starcraft.
