Diablo III

[old.Tohtori]

Blizzard has a tendency to wait on those. It's usually 2-3 years before launch.

• Starcraft: Announced spring 1996, released April 1998. (2 years later.)
• Diablo 2: Announced Sept 1997, released June 2000. (2 years, 9 months later.)
• Warcraft 3: Announced Sept 1999, released July 2002. (2 years, 10 months later.)
• World of Warcraft: September 2001, released Nov 2004. (3 years, 1 month later.)
• Starcraft 2: Announced May 2007, released July 2010 (3 years, 2 months later.)

They've gone to longer cycles with SC2 and D3 though, or rather, it's been getting longer and longer.

If that's any indication, we won't see Titan atleast before 2015 Q1.

I'm thinking next blizzcon(if it's on), or this year in general, and if not then titans probably on hold.

Speculation, so lovely

It's not on hold but they won't release it while they still milk WoW, no point.

We will have Pandaland and at least one more expansion before Titan imo.

WoW will eventually go to level 100 cap...whether that's one more expansion or two more (after MOP), I guess that depends on subscribers.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Depends on the setting, FPSMMO by latest i've heard so there's not really an overlap there.

Please be starcraft...please be starcraft...i want a hot femmy ghost to play with in a tight bodysuit.

And she should wear one too

It's a brand new IP apparently, the only information given so far.

The irony and just overall lack of game spirit ni that video is absolutely astonishing.

Hating gold beggers, nothing below 1 mil reported and being a dck about it is just...blah. Lifetime ban wouldn't be enough.

It's 100% a joke video, he didn't really report anyone..

Just by looking at his hair I started laughing ... I'm not sure how he kept a straight face throughout the video !

Athene is all about trolling !

Haha, it is funny

Notice the camera wasn't on his screen when he supposedly clicked 'report'.

So Bashiok admits end game 'item hunt' is lacking.

About time we had some feedback tbh. Hopefully they got some good ideas in addition to PVP arenas. Although still don't have a clue how they are going to balance that shit.

Having fun still though, yesterday I got the same feeling as I did when boss running in D2, that the next good item is just one kill away feeling.

Looking forward to what announcements they may make, hopefully they do something to fix this before 1.1.

 

[Nate]

Got pretty bored of it tbh, the endless grind to find a better item that will never come due to the rng

 

[Raven]

Yeah, need at least a taste of that carrot to carry on following it.

gave up on it.

 

[BloodOmen]

other problems with items is the lack of gem choices etc, prefered D2's gemming system tbh it was 100x better as was the itemization of stuff and drop rates

 

[Aada]

Yep time to move on guys what game is next? GW2?!??!!?

 

[~Latency~]

yeah this turned out to be balls, I'm playing Starhawk until something else comes out

 

[Raven]

Playing minecraft at the moment while waiting for Pandaland. Not got a lot of time for games atm.

I think I'm tempted to make a new daoc account :|.

 

[BloodOmen]

go for it everz just make something to zerg surf tho, pretty much all that goes on now (or was the last time I used my free 14 days) sat on Brynja for 30 minutes and not a single enemy came.

I have 4 accounts still linked with my email.

The fools who forgot to change the information when they bought them.. .

 

[BloodOmen]

surprised you could even sell them, accounts arent worth fuck all these days, can prob buy a RR10 for like £15-20

Checked the 'new VN' lately?

I let them go cheap at the amount they are going for. Even a naked bot is reaching upwards of £30.

 

[BloodOmen]

Lol wtf? they sold for virtually nothing before whats changed to up the price?

 

[Everz]

Demand I guess?

Seems pretty ridiculous, seems Faril sold his bard account for a couple hundred dollars.

 

[BloodOmen]

seems quite silly to me, I can't think of anything that would make the price jump so rapidly, demand can't be that great surely? its not as if mythic are advertising DAOC a lot.

 

[Aada]

Probably returning players that simply do not want to go through the grind and if your gonna buy plats its just easier to buy an account i guess.

 

[Everz]

What Aada said. I would looking to buy if I wanted to play one of my previous classes. Couldn't be fucked getting the gear and RRs again on a chanter .

 

[Mirt]

I'm gobsmacked anybody would pay a couple of hundred $ for any DAoC char in 2012, let alone one of Faril's... After all I can only assume ywain is populated by the same old bottom feeders adding on everything 24/7

Thats it for me for now I think, I've done quite well in terms of playtime to be honest. 90+ hours on my monk so lifespan for a game was pretty good. However, I shan't be playing again until they fix something at end game. They desperately need to turn this into a competitive PvP game, I think thats the only thing that will save it. Everytime I log in I can do a butcher run in 25 mins with 5NV, facerolling. A3 is beyond hard and I can't afford 20+mill for my next upgrade (monks are WTFhard to gear anyway considering we need, dex/vit/armour/res all + 1 other res/ LOH/Crit chance/Crit Dmg). Im not prepared to play for another 90 hours considering the only drop worth multi millions I've found (sick amulet) Is like perfect for monk so I'm not willing to sell and buying from AH seems like a complete cop out.

Its an enjoyable game, and I do have a laugh with my mate, but I'll keep a close eye on patch notes to see if thay change anything worth coming back for.
