StarCraft MMO FPS. The diablo part will come for gear progression and loot.

I knows…they postponed development of Starcraft Ghost when they found out when they would be getting access to the nextgen Xbox, didnt want to spend x years developing for a console that would be replaced so soon. Indefinate hold…work on some other things…a few years later we start again with shiny new xbox technology.

Oh my god… Titan being Starcraft Ghost actually makes sense.

ghost would be cool, but i think id rather have a Starcraft themed WoW…. 3 faction PvP for the win!!

Hello
Gamebreakernation/Gamebreaker.Tv.

Without
saying this is entirely true or that I believe everything our dear
Blizztradamus is saying, I do think that he is dipping his toe in the right
pool. It does sound like something Blizzard would and could do, it would secure
them a ‘Fanbase’, because of the whole Ghostcraft idea, since everyone who hasn’t
been living under a rock for the past 10 years knows what ‘Starcraft Ghost’ is,
and in itself the “World of” would attract a lot of players.

Even though
I do believe a little of what our friend Blizztradamus is saying, I do not
agree with him on the X-Box platform part of the rumor, because that simply
seems unlikely, unless they would make the game both offline (For X-Box) and online
(For the PC/Mac), but that would remove the whole “World of” idea, because
there’s nothing living and breathing about a game full of NPC’s.

- Also,even if they would make an online game on the X-Box – And I highly doubt this –
it would be rather hard to communicate with other players, unless they could
make a nice and user-friendly chat system, where you could plug-in a keyboard
and chat with that, since we all know, that not all WoW nor StarCraft gamers
have a microphone and even if they do, many are afraid of using it, and because
of this, an “in-game ventrilo” won’t be the ideal communication tool.

I like the
World of Ghostcraft idea and I also find it very plausible, because of the whole
Fanbase that they could generate rather fast, though do I not find the X-Box
idea very plausible nor do I like it that much, but everyone is different.

I hope you
liked my comments and thoughts!

Best wishes
from Weksus

Sidenote; I
love your show(s), keep it up!

Starcraft as an MMO quests dailies dungeons raids some types of other side things to do all in a world with high tech multi world spanning play area would be cool. FPS (first person shooter??) that you can keep I have no use for that in an RPG but then again I also have zero problems with them leaveing out any type of PVP in the new game as well. RPG computer game go to an area see NPC read text do job wash rinse repete to level up make money get gear thats a great game to me.

About titan… Gotta take the TSW approach everything is true.

My first post here but long time watcher since you all started legendary. I couldnt resist to post cause seems to perfect SoE nails Planetside 2 with three faction wars. Starcraft 3 factions interesting will blizzard one up SoE again. I may be completly off on this but whole starcraft talk thats all i could think of starcraft like planetside 2 would be awsome.

There was grinding in gw2 from the start but it was for kit that looked good not big stats… AND the new dungeon kit is not needed for anythink but the new dungeon …

  I still wonder about adding that mechanic to fractals, Blizzard got rid of the resistance gear a long time ago. Fire resistance gear for MC and Frost resistance gear for Naxx.

and sorry no one should be raiding in pvp kit ov any lvl

Didn’t you guys talked about Blizz buying the Halo IP? That’s also an existing IP. The post stated it’s a spinof of an existing IP. Halo is an existing IP. And it is strongly represented on the console too.

As I said in the ‘What are the burning questions in the MMO industry in 2013′ post from Jason:

“ I’m kinda praying-hoping my brains out dear Blizz will scandalously use as much of the War40k ideas for inspiration and combine them into workable archetypes and loresettings for it’s upcomming Titan.Let’s face it, after the cancellation of Dark Millenium Online it probably will take years, if not more, for another W40k mmo try to pop up. Why not have an all-encompassing mix of Halo and influencencing ideas made from W40k, and by one of the best gamecompanies in the world? I feel that would make one hell of an mmo.
So yeah. Titan. T40k? o/ ”

Although it feels like blasphemy talking about morfing-interlocking W40k concepts with say Halo, they are imo the most awsome influences Blizz could use for a sci-fi title like Titan.
Or Halo-Starcraft.

  This! I was wondering why they didn’t mention Halo at all. Was there something that disproved this even when there was found evidence of “Promotional consideration by Blizzard” In some years old episode of some comedy show where they didn’t show anything Blizzard related, but Halo instead?

It appears my stream went on vacation to Wyoming! Every time an intermission happens with them my stream does not come back!

In discussing what to do about the pvp/pve gear issues why not just make tier gear. with pvp and pve stats that change depending on the situation a player is in.

An example is resistance is in force the moment you enter pvp and the mastery stat just goes away then reverse this once the player is no longer flagged for pvp?Then its just a matter of making aquisition of the tier gear equal in time/effort between pvp and pve.

OK
after watching the episode and doing some research I actually disagree
with you guys’ prediction on Titan. It’s not gonna be a Starcraft
spin-off. If we assume that this AlphaNOID guy’s inside info is legit
i.e.:

1. Titan is a spin-off of an existing Blizzard IP while being kinda new at the same time.2. It’s a diablo-esque setting.3. It’s gonna be on the new XBox as well as PC.4. It’s an MMOFPS. and we factor in:5.
the recent twitter pic from one of the Blizzard employees (don’t
remember who it was now) with their product timeline dating back to the
90s (it had Lost Vikings, Warcraft 2 and Blackthorne). That alluded to
nothing specific and remains mysterious.6.
the recent leaked domain name that Blizzard registered – Project
Blackstone which also makes no sense unless it’s used as an actual
title.Then
all these dots together inevitably point towards Titan being set in the
Blackthorne universe (spin off of an existing IP WHICH IS ALSO
practically unknown to most gamers). I
read up on it on wikipedia and apparently it was a sort of fantasy /
sci-fi mix with elements of both:monsters / magic (diablo-esque? check!)
+ guns / technology (FPS elements? check!). The story of the original
game hinged heavily on two artifacts: a Lightstone and a Darkstone
(Blackstone? =P) and the protagonist was a mercenary soldier from Earth .
Sorry
for the long post, just wondering whether I just had a moment of
extreme clarity / foresight (in which case- CALLED IT!) or I’m just
reaching.

I am watching GBTV Legendary with a little delay because i live in Germany… so i cannot join the Live Chat during the Show … actually i can … but its , i dont know … in the middle of the Night and as much as i like GBTV ………. ……. nope ! So back to Topic.
You talked about Ghostyz Twitterpost were he is talking about Raiding and
”"” controversial “”" .
But … we all know , when Blizz0rd is talking about something like
”"” controversial “”" , theres more going on with that .
You talked about Raidscale and 15 man raiding … nice …fine .. but remember.
We already had that in Classic WoW . UBRS .) Forget the Raidingscale Thing … and add a bit more of that Thing called “”" controversial “”" .

My guess ….!?!?

(-(-(-(-(-.-).-).-).-)

CrossFactionRaiding Against all Oddz !
And yes .. i know ..its working against the MoP Lore . But letz face it. Wheres the
” WAAAGH “ Metzen was talking about ?

Why are you talking about this when theres not one bit of real information about it yet? When they make a big announcement with some teasing stuff you can be sure that its still 1-2 years off. This is Blizzard, dont forget…

So youre looking at 2 years + from now. Alot of time to just speculate

Titian is probably a MMO based on the cancelled starcraft spinoff Ghost

Hey guys I have a solution for blizz on that would suit all those who arrive late to either PvP or PvE. Simply have an extended overlap of the CP and VP points each week which means if you come into a season 3 weeks after start you will be able to get as much VP or CP as someone who has been there all 3 weeks. The player will still need to put in a tonne of effort to farm all those CP or VP points but at least it will give someone an opportunity to catch up.

If it’s a starcraft fps mmo thats on xbox and pc then Blizzard has already got my money.
