    On the plus side, they may have decided to go with HD GRAFFIX rather than Torchlight style.

    The new MMO is not going to be starcraft. Titan is the new mmofps.

    Personallz Ive never heard about starcraft phoenix but I doubt its going to be a new game, if it was it must be release in 2018.

    Of course, knowing my luck it'll be some bull###### like Tabula Rasa. IT'S NOT AN FPS IF THE ENEMY CAN SHOOT ME AROUND A CORNER BECAUSE HIS VIRTUAL DICE THROW WAS HIGH ENOUGH.

    I've always been under the impression that the new MMO was going to be <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/13/first-official-confirmation-that-new-blizzard-mmo-is-original-ip/" target="_blank">a new franchise</a>, and StarCraft is not a new franchise.

    Blizzard hasn't launched a new franchise since 1998. I bet it's a Lost Vikings MMO. Or maybe their basing it off of AutoAssault and making rock 'n roll racing MMO.

    Maybe they meant their "newest" franchise. Which <i>is</i> Starcraft, Hmm....

    Since we're throwing random idea's at eachother here: A phoenix usually represents rebirth. Since this project seems to be set in the starcraft universe, could this be a revival of starcraft ghost?

    Thats more like it.

    No scmmo coming. I promise you this. An action game based on SC? More likely.

    SC: Ghost was the sole reason I bought a GameCube... then they cancelled it :|

    How about taking the title too literal? Aerial combat game in a Phoenix. That's something they haven't done before... I think.

    Blizzard recycles, they do not innovate beyond Starcraft :P

    This is both hilarious and totally untrue.

    The proofs:
    As someone already mentioned, Titan is the internal code-name for the MMO. SC2 Phoenix I think is an expansion pack or something... and the console jobs were listed under Diablo III on their job posting site.

    I'm surprised to even see this article... it is well known what the new MMO franchise will be. Blizzard employees talk about it in hushed tones but they still talk.

    I think this is the most likely scenario for SC2 Phoenix. It's probably the protoss expansion pack.

    Call my bluff on what?

    Next MMO is project Titan. It is sci-fi based, not in SC universe and will be an RPG/FPS hybrid with heavy emphasis on squad combat. There's no bluff to call on this.. what I'm saying is that everyone knows about Titan and I'm surprised to see anyone mistaking SC2Phoenix for Titan especially when both Titan and Phoenix are on the same leaked blizzard timetable.

    Nope, SC2 Phoenix is down for simultaneous release with SC2 X1 ( zerg expansion ) with SC2 X2 coming a year later ( the protoss expansion ).

    But puzl, Blizzard doesn't HAVE an IP called Titan. Now, I'll acknowledge the possibility that this is an entirely NEW IP if YOU will acknowledge that this possibility is not all that probable, considering this is Blizzard we're talking about. Their newest IP is Starcraft. That sort of sets the tone. Blizzard iterates. It's what they DO.

    Well, but it is a new IP.

    I worked for blizzard until recently and I've seen titan many times. So... yeah, you lost this one.

    Don't they have super strict NDAs on that? When my friend was working at Blizz (internship) he wasn't allowed to see anything related to Titan because they were too afraid of leaks.

    They tricked you because they knew they couldn't trust you to stick to your NDA!
  • PaniggPanigg Join Date: 2006-11-02 Member: 58212Members
    They have strict NDAs. You are only allowed to see the secret stuff if you've worked for the company for over a year.

    Also, I'm not leaking ANYTHING.

    Everyone already knows it's an MMOFPS and that its a new IP. They've been saying that for at least a year now.

    What I know besides that, now that is news to most of you. I could go into quite the detail, but I won't.
