I'd imagine it'd be the release of a product this year, since Acti-Blizz reported a 5.5% drop in non-GAAP revenues this year and they won't be able to revive that through Call of Duty Elite or another CoD game on its own; they'll need something from Blizzard's end to help out.

There is no way HoTS is coming out before 2013.

They are not about to release HoTS when the first bnet championships is going to be played on WoL. It would take too much attention away from bnet championships.

That's actually a really good point. It would be ridiculous for them to release it before their event which they're super hyping, never thought of that.

blizzard patches the game days before the finals, they obviously dont care about letting the game be before tournament finals.

other than that, i'm not sure why hots will take so long to make.

Probably the announcement that the exact start date of the beta will be announced in summer

If they release HotS when WoL is already dead, then everything is lost. We need the huge mass of non-hardcore players.

Can you share why is it that you are losing interest in the game? Were you a long time BW player, or maybe WC3? Do you play custom games? Do you follow the competitive scene? Also what about HOTS will make you go back except the new features and units, and if so would you grow tired of it after another year/two?

Hots will be delayed so much... I don't believe in Blizzard, that they can come out with multiple product releases within a single year. They will try their best to make the most amount of profit.

-> been Blizzard customer for the last 16 years, rage at them sometimes but still buys their games in the end.

If you think of it it makes perfect sense. They would be having there tournament as a sort of final tournament for WoL and send it off and then welcome in the HotS era.

I would say that its 50-50 that they have all 3 of there major releases in same year. We already know about D3 and Wow the question over whether they will go 3 for 3 though is still up in the air.

Go back to Brood War, that's what I'm doing and loving it.

I want them to announce changes to the UI in Bnet 2.0. T_T
