End of 2012? You mean by the time BL Infestor had already whittled down the 5 million WoL accounts to only 200k active?

To be fair that's standard for almost any game and the meta could have been anything.

Btw, something that might've been missed by most.

Blizzard mentions the "watch" tab and custom tournaments at the bottom here:

http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/20352111/blizzcon-recap-foundation-for-the-future-11-4-2016

"Everything we’ve discussed today is what’s most far along from a design standpoint, but it’s not everything we have planned for the future of StarCraft II. New Arcade features, Custom Tournaments, a “Watch” tab, and more are on our roadmap. We’ve had a great year, and we look forward to bringing you even more great content in the future."


We’ve had a great year, and we look forward to bringing you even more great content in the future.


Yeah, sure. Disbanding core teams in Korea is a great year.

Looking at the game itself as a whole, which is the point of this thread, it was a good year to be honest.

Did they comment at all on whether the Nova missions have been a success (commercially or otherwise), and whether they are interested in continuing to develop the starcraft universe by means of mission packs?

The most underwhelming blizzcon in a very long time. No new game/expansions announcements. BW HD - nope. SC2 f2p multiplayer - nope. Diablo 4, Warcraft 4 - rofl.

I mean, with the starter edition sc2 is already f2p for the most part, just cant play the campaign or ranked.

Agree, although Diablo 4 would've been strange. I expected a Diablo 3 expansion though (on top of the new class).
I Protoss winner, could it be?

All those super super super high expectations came only from communities. Blame your community that they confused your mind very succesfully, especially diablo3 community.

A huge chunk of the industry is moving away from regular game releases and instead moves on towards games as a (long term) service, and Blizzard is leading in this.

So it's not unreasonable that they don't release WarCraft 4 or Diablo 4 when they have two games that already fill both of their niches.

Does anyone know how "soon" the changes will go live?
Because they mentioned: " Shortly after blizzcon " and "the upcomming weeks" .

I think most people speculate that most of the new Diablo 3 content like the Necromancer class and the free new zones that they've added and will add are all likely content from a cancelled expansion pack.

Diablo 4 is likely being made based on Blizzard's recent hiring posts, but it's probably too early in pre-production to be publicly unveiled.

So basically Team Games will be completely unplayable due to Carrier buff (it's already the biggest cancer in team games) and DTs. But hey, who cares about team games, the chosen ones aka pros don't play it anyway.

pretty sure most pros think carriers at 200/200 and protoss skytoss (once you actually successfully reach it) is ridicilous

I mean. Realistically we're not "due" for one, as much as people were super excited for.

RoS "only" came out in 2014, LOTV came out in 2015 (RTS team who would work on WC4 would only be "free" then, WoW's last expansion just came out in 2016.

The only game that can spit out expansions fast is like Hearthstone & WoW.

I think we're in that era of like 2002-2007, where not many if nothing big and new gets announced besides WoW and Hearthstone expansions.

There's no way in hell they wouldn't announce a big game like that if it wasnt in the opening ceremony.
