World of StarCraft?

[ZeroDarkStar]

What do you think this might be like, if Blizzard ever concidered making it?

Would you enjoy it?

[blkmage]

Wouldn't work if Zerg were playable. Unless that sort of thing gets sorted out in SC2.

[Swiftjustice]

woah... thats quite the idea?? Sounds kewl, but i think would be hard to pull off... Like WoW has the whole race/class thing going for it.. with towns and cities.. I think starcraft would be better to remain a RTS... Great idea though...... Anyways, does anyone know how long it took to make WoW? just wondering

[mcflurry_1982]

What next World of Diablo? Actually the Name would probably be Worlds of Starcraft, with it being in space and all. but i dont think theyll make it. there is no need.

[ZeroDarkStar]

I'm not saying they'll make it.

I'm asking what you think it would be like.

[mcflurry_1982]

in that case i dont think i would enjoy it becuase it would take days to go between planeys and travel across them

Probably there'll never be WoSC since it'd be really hard to implement the Zerg, for example, and also the Protoss.
The Terran would probably have classes like Trader, Pirate, Bounty Hunter (ie. all the cliched Star Wars occupations).
You could probably travel to another planets as well as space installations.
Missions would most likely be characteristic to your class.

A completely off-topic and indecipherable post... :confused:

I'm not overly enthused about World of WarCraft, and I would prefer Blizzard focussed on StarCraft II before starting anything of the sort for StarCraft.

[BSTRhino]

World of StarCraft wouldn't work the same as World of WarCraft, because in the WarCraft world, people are really individuals, or 'mercenaries' if you like.

But in the StarCraft world, everyone is linked to each other in a team organisation. But I wouldn't mind to play either, in actual fact, I was looking forward to World of WarCraft more than StarCraft: Ghost. It reminds of another mmorpg sort of thing I used to play, except it was missing the RPG part. It's called <a href="http://www.activeworlds.com/">ActiveWorlds</a>. It's basically a chatroom that you can walk around in. You can only hear people within 20 metres of you, and you can build a house in the world as well. It's really cool, except there's not much to do. You can program some scripts to make games and things, but basically it's just walking, talking and building.

I really liked ActiveWorlds. A lot. If I had the money (which has become the important factor here) then World of WarCraft would probably be my favourite game. World of StarCraft wouldn't be as good, but it would be better than ActiveWorlds.

Edit: I made an HTML mistake - I do too much web programming lol. That was meant to say: ActiveWorlds (http://www.activeworlds.com/)

I can't wait till we have sigs!!!

[ZeroDarkStar]

Heh. I ought to try that sometime. It sounds fun.

[UndeadBastard]

Not a chance. Blizz already has WoW for MMORPG and will prolly be a huge hit...Maybe after 4-6 years.

[Battlecruiser]

I think it would be a good idea because it can add a lot to the storyline but if they want to make a game like that they better make it fast because a lot of starcraft fans are not going to play anymore till a new game comes out. Every day less and less starcraft players will be playing on battle net. Blizzard better get started on Starcarft 2 already.

[SoldierPrime]

It would most likely be like a Planetside/WoW mix plus another game which me and a friend where discussing concepts for... It might also be like Natureal Selection (HL Mod) where you are part of a lagger group/army, you could travel from base to base. Getting from palce to palce would be normal movements but also spawning at your building, barrack etc... it would be a very indepth game and require lots of programing, even explaining it a lot is hard.

[Anzaah]

in that case i dont think i would enjoy it becuase it would take days to go between planeys and travel across them
take star wars galaxies for instance. thier worlds are only 15 x 15 kilometers and space travel is done by cinematics and only takes a few minutes.

[Achelus]

Back before Blizzard announce World of WarCraft, this game is actually what I thought they were making. I think I said it in my interview with the Chinese StarCraft Association, I'm not sure what interview though...

[Lord_Sirian]

Yeah, I think making an SC MMOFPS like Planetside would be an excellent idea.

[Netrunner]

Starcraft MMORPG could be something like freelancer on the ground, weaponry and such would be awesome, player levels and classes, no need for that.

[keru_sayanas]

Worlds of starcraft...intruiguing....but suspicious....hmmmmmm

[Zeltaris]

I'd love it :)
Sure, it'd be rather complicated... well not really. I guess it would be some sort of beefed up SC:Ghost with more character classes, no storyline and well... that's pretty much everything I can think of :D . I guess everthing else would work like WoW, like the player having to complete certain mission objectives [instead of quests] and stuff

Still, I'd rather have SC II :smirk:

[ZeroDarkStar]

I hope you just don't use those thread necromancy powers to raise an army of the dead and take over the world....

[Dark_Viper]

i doubt it would be made.. but if it did it would be far in the future...

Thats why im making a FPS SC mod of the Battlefield engine in the meantime.. all races playable.

[Geckat]

Isn't it that in WOW you can only be a dwarf? Anyway, I think it'd just be a lot like Ghost. I just wish that there'd be sort of an addon once you beat Ghost that you get to try different minimissions with Zerg and Protoss. That'd be fun. AND that'd be exactly what WOS would be like.

Still, I'd buy it. Im a SC fanatic, sue me.

They're doin' SC: Ghost already n' some of u still ask 4 a WoSC? Geeezz! What about some decent SC 2? Or 4 some of u, expert modders, 2 do an unofficial SC 2? (Hint, hint!)
; )

I'm tryin' out some mods. Like the Gundam or the Zeji / Mekani mod n' lovin' it!!! Just not happy the modded Reavers (named Orca's, I believe)in Zeji / Mekani won't fire while over H20, tough.
Well, u can't have it all...

[Darkslayer633]

This idea does sound kool and mabye if they did it in a way so that it was team based, tou would have the protoss, zerg, and terran as all separate like starcraft.
but the twist is that if u pick protoss then you are allied with all the protoss in that entire galaxy, samefor zerg and terran, u could pick what unit you would be when u sign up for the account and other races would be enemies. but lets say that you didn't want to be llied with the protoss but you still anted to be a zealot or something like that then there would also be a way to set up alliances with people of other races so that you could be a toss unit but allied with terran

[Basan]

darkslayer633,

All of the present ideas sound great but I didn't meant 4 ppl at Blizzard 2 do a WoSC. No way! I don't even like much of the idea of SC: Ghost 'cause 4 me, it sounds terribly 1 of those exploit the mainstream bits at the expense of our 'love' 4 SC (addiction sounds better than 'love', but some1 could just flame me). That's what most game companies are doin' right now. I'm not sayin' they shouldn't, but they should keep in mind that quality should come be4 deadlines... but they shouldn't overdo it 2!
What I was trying 2 state is (altough it may seem controversial), that we're waitin' (SC community with BW or not) 4 a darn long time 4 a decent sequel 2 SC.
On another level I was suggesting 2 any modder out there, 2 do an amazin' unofficial (obviously) SC II.

1st let'em do the so waited SC II... then they could do whatever they want! WoSC, finish SC: Ghost whatever. Even though I may not even play it (SC: G), since it's only 4 game consoles. 4 me they're simply losin' a cut on the market, but who cares?
