Was it just me, or was anyone else pissed Lost Vikings is not on their "progression"?

(Maybe because it was when they were under interplay and not VU?)

Lost Vikings would be almost better than Diablo 3 for me.

And you're crazy, DJ Yoshi. Make a starcraft mod for CnC and shut up.

I cant say I'm really excited for anything except for something brand new.

It felt like Star Craft and Warcraft 3 had almost identical story lines. If they could stray away from that format it would rock.

With Diablo 2 it closed things up pretty well, but if they could have a really really good story following that, I would love to play it.

I actually had a deep hope that I would be the one able to write the storyline for that game. . .I'm such a nerd

QuuEffTee

One of the few times that I 100% agree with Yoshi.



I think that a game about the actual wars between Heaven and Hell would be BADASS

Same here.

I'm gonna have to go with kirby on this one. There's no conceivable way to improve upon Starcraft. As that one dead guy said, perfection is knowing not when to stop adding stuff, but when to stop taking away. Any sequel to starcraft would be a dismally-failing disappointment.

The reason StarCraft and WarCraft have similar storylines is because they should. Their inspirations, Warhammer 40k and Warhammer respectively followed similar storylines, and you'll notice a LOT of similarities between the games if you look closely. Honestly, I wouldn't be at all surprised to find parables between StarCraft and WarCraft given time and installations.


Faith come from the quality of their titles. WC1 and 2 set the bar for RTS at their release. Starcraft was undeniably THE best RTS upon release, Diablo was one of the most unique and awesome games ever upon release, Warcraft 3 once again raised the bar in the RTS field. They keep one-upping themselves, not to mention the competition.

And Lost Vikings would be neato.


That's all kinds of stupid, illegal, and impossible that I don't think I even want to try and cover. Besides that, the CnC3 engine would be horribly inadequate and stupid to try a Starcraft port to. Think more Dawn of War with HEAVY HEAVY modification, if anything. (irony, really).


You have no idea. Your imagination could come up with all kinds of ideas, but I'm sure your (as we have all seen before) puny imagination is no match for the likes of blizzard. Honestly I trust them with the storyline a lot more than I'd ever trust you to think up any storyline/gameplay/anything. You saying it'd be a "dismally failing disappointment" is like SF_Gold saying any star wars game made today would be a "dismally failing disappointment". So forgive me if I take your word for...well...what it is. That being worth ****.

I'm just going by the generally-accepted principle "the bigger they are, the harder they fall."

Starcraft was such a stellar title that any sequel has gigantic boots to fill.

I think it's going to be something completely new and different, nothing we've heard of before.

teletubbies from hell.

Warcraft 2 was an amazing title, and everyone thought it was the EPITOME of RTS awesomeness. Then Starcraft came along and that was even better. Then came Warcraft 3.

Same could be said about the C&C series.

Honestly, that theory is so silly it's not worth visiting.

It's not a better game I want. I just want them to continue the story. I would even be satisfied if they made StarCraft 2 with the same engine. Perhaps just add the new controls from WarCraft 3.

This site says it's a Starcraft MMO like World of Warcraft...

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=163207&skip=yes

However, they offer no proof but just claim its their 'sources'

I honestly hope it's not. I've wanted a Starcraft 2 for a long long time. I want a RTS and not another damn WoW from Blizzard

That's exactly what this world needs; another mmo with absolutely no substance.

Shut up, WoW is one of the only MMO's WITH substance.

No, it really has no substance. It's just the BEST MMO without substance. Hellgate: London is really set to be the ONLY MMO that will have substance. Besides, Blizzard isn't stupid enough to split loyalties between two MMOs. If it's Starcraft anything, it's going to be Ghost finally released or Starcraft 2.

Lets be fair.

WoW has a substance.

It's just an opiate that seemingly only affects retards.

This man has it right.

If Blizzard is developing anything MMO, it's going to be another expansion for WoW.

Everyone knows it's going to be a WoW card game expansion.

Kill x amount of enemies and collect x items and talk to x people on x different corners of the world is NOT substance. Eve is pretty much the only game I've heard of with ANY substance at all, but it's boring as hell.

And thus you get to why WoW has no substance. It's not because it was poorly made or is a crappy game, it's because it's an MMO. :p

Let's hope Warhammer Online changes this trend. I won't hold my breath though.

LotR-O is pretty deep. It has a lot of elements that focus on roleplaying, which is a huge plus for me.

Sword of the New World looks good too. Can't wait for the beta.

Is it still a SP game in a MP world to get a monthly payment out of you?

That sort of retort only works if you know what you're talking about. They aren't SP games if you play with other players constantly :\

Do you deliberately post things that you know people will disagree with?

But then again, look at this thread since the mmorpg talks begun. Everyone and the next is posting their opinion as if its the universal truth. Its all based on opinions, so you've pretty much got a nice little show of :

"WOW HAS SUBSTANCE!"

I love you guys. You're all like the little retarded brother I never had.

I see what you did there.

XD

Eh, we already have Starcraft 2 anyway. It's called Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War. Or perhaps it would be more appropriate to say Starcraft was a Warhammer 40k game....

Not really, though starcraft/warcraft do use the warhammer 40k/warhammer style of reality where evil can win, it has different races and different styles of war.

WoW was never that brutal. Starcraft was though.

However it doesnt mean that IF its an MMO it'll be an RPG. Its possible Blizzard might try whats never been done well an MMO-RTS Hybrid.

That's the same speculation my brother made, heh.

Sadly its very unlikely.

Aslong as it isnt cartoony thats fine, WoW looks crap.

Jeez I hope so.

I wish it was set in the 40k universe though.

If it were a Starcraft MMO (which I doubt), I really can't see it being a RPG. Seriously, how can you make classes for a game that has soldiers with guns, aliens with evolutionary forms, and aliens with plasma blades and robotics? If it were to be a MMO, it would better be something similar to planetside given that game's setup.

Dreamlords is done pretty well.

"Medusa" to be announced in 10 minutes. It's most certainly starcraft. Of course, considering it's the Korean game summit.

It's been 10 minutes...

The Starcraft quote on the timeline says "I am the queen of blades, and my stare alone would reduce you to ashes"

Which is exactly what medusa does!

They announced it! Lost World of Diabloviking Starwarcraft
It's a MMORTS Puzzler Set in a Diablo universe full of vikings.

Not exactly...
