So... will people still play WC3?

Do you think SC2 will kill off the WC3 comunity? If so is there even any piont in making any more maps now?

I hope not as SC2 just dosnt apeal to me so I for one will still be playing WC3!

If i had a nickel for every time someone....

My answer is yes, but it will definately speed Warcraft's death. Give it a year or two, by that time SC2 will be well established and new/better maps will be out for Sc2.

It's amazing warcraft still has a large, running community for 5 years now. With games like Starcraft 2 it is the sad truth that the day of Warcraft's demise is coming close. It may have lasted longer if WoW didn't completely rape the storyline.

Sorry if this is overly dramatic.

Hey, yeah, let's charge them to make these threads! :p



You can play SC2 one day and WC3 the next, it's not an either-or situation.

Oh yay another one of these threads!

SC2 AND D3 will spell wc3's death. It'll take a long time, because like it or not DotA will still be popular, but nonetheless the fanbase will shift to sc2 or d3.

But still, people play Diablo 2:Lod, and SW:BW everyday, despite wc3 being much much newer, with better graphics.

Wc3 will never totally die, just the majority of people will go elsewhere.

IDK about Diablo 3 playing much of a role in Warcraft's death. It's an RPG and since there will be no editor or any modding tools, the warcraft community will stay. I'm worried about Starcraft 2 though.. Actually, i'm not, i hope it is going to be better than Wc3.

I'm pretty sure that SCII will kill much of WCIII gaming community, but I doubt that it'll stop people visiting the Hive.

THE INSTANT SC2 COMES OUT MY SOUL BELONGS TO IT!

Just thought I'd let you know.

Hmm I'm more of an SC person but I think Diablo 3 will be the thing taking my soul.

Well if the Hive can adapt to both SC2 and WC3 that would be really good.

I heard that SC2 was dumped.

Come on Blizzard! Give us a patch that will completely rape WC3's campaigns! Change the storyline to the present!

I hope wc3 will never die... it might pass by because of the technology, but his spirit will never pass out..

WC3's triggers manipulates completely the whole WC3.. not only to make melee maps.. saw the Pyritie's Adventures? That was completely Ps2 like....

Its like you people don't even try to hide your lack of sources any more.

Just to confirm for those who still need reassurance (ie: the stupid or infirm): Yes, SC2 is still going strong. I sincerely hope i don't run across a question like that again...

SC2 will overtake wc3 because, from what I've heard its WE has even more capabilities then the warcraft 3 one.

Not to mention that Icefrog will probably almost immediately make DotA for starcraft 2, or Defense of the Protoss, or something....

But yes, I'll be switching over. For me starcraft 2 is just going to be warcraft but prettier and more functional. Hopefully the Hive converts somewhat to SCII.

Why is it so bad if SC2 takes over the wc3 community? It's almost the same game, just a bit better graphics and better support for modders.

Why me and SC2?

Melee

- tired of solo ladder @ war3
- sick of unbalances, abuses
- everyone left war3.. it is dying
- sick of map haxors, go die pls
- war3 removed from some leagues
- I like space&futuristic games, so if SC2's gonna be the 'space war3' then by all means
- new game, yet to be played and to appear in tour/leagues
- fav top players will switch to sc2
- no freakin heroes to make more imba

custom maps

- more options by the Scum Editor
- instead of creating models for war3 world, my tech models would fit perfectly with SC2
- no more change interfaces, to make war3 look like another game if you don't want castle walls or undead bones or clock with a Kukuriguuu every morning
- new game yet to be liked
