BlizzCon 2018 predictions thread

[Aeula]

Blizzard showing off some minor Classic progress.
8.1 and 8.2 showcase.
No Diablo.
Some new Overwatch/HoTS hero or something.
Starcraft Espots

Blizzcon renamed Acticon and will be filled with Activision stuff from now on.

My prediction:

1. New allied races
2. Vanilla
3. CoD in the launcher

And this is all, have fun with remakes of the old races and a new server from a game of 2004.
Activision Blizzard, remakening the past for cash! Its all

WoW.

Details about next allied races.
Patch 8.0.5 or something, like they did in Legion.
WC3 reemaster(But i doubt on it)
Eventually WoD timewalking announcement, since with BfA announcement blizz said that WoD TW in BfA will happend.
No classic, because it is scam.

Diablo.

Diablo 2 reemaster.
Diablo 3 new class.
Diablo 4.
Nothing again.

Starcraft.

New Starcraft 2 COOP stuff.
New warchest season.
More arcade games to buy.
New campaign(I doubt on that too)

Hearthstone.

New expansion.

Overwatch.

New hero.
New map.
More insight into lore, cinematic like about Reinhardt.

Heroes Of The Storm.

New heroes. (Probably this year most awaited Imperius, Dreadlord or Belial)
New maps. (In leaks is rumored two from Warcraft, eventually Hanamura return, but Blackheart Bay getting out of map pull to rework)
More improvements into Matchmaking.
More lore about Nexus Lords and not only.

Other.

Bobby Kottick appears in Blizzcon, says hi and announcing that next CoD games will be release only on BN, because steam players sucks.
Green jesus father Chris Metzen return.
Annoucing that without Hairy Ben Brode, HS is not the same and they will try fix it. But unfortunelly getting rid of it.

[Mekkle]

I have next to no hope for Diablo Warcraft will be future content patches, everything else I don't care enough to think about.

[DarkAmbient]

Nothing interesting will happen, except maybe a Classic update. Hopefully no Vulpera.

[Deleted]

They will have someone idiotic to host it or some of the guest will troll the audience again like the time they had whil wheaton or the band that called alliance gay or something.

[Youarefired]

I'll predict I'll be there because I GOT A TICKET! WOO!

Oh, and something something classic servers something...

[varren]

Diablo 4 or that IP is dead

[SinR]

8.1 raid info for WoW
New characters for OW
new expansion for HS
something new for HotS
Diablo 3 and SC2 get mentions, but nothing really new and exciting

[yetgdhfgh]

1. Big announcement about Vanilla wow and its update about how far its coming along.
2. 8.1 News and shit they got in the works for future patches in BfA
3. The usual crap about games i dont play like HS and Overwatch that i skip etc etc.

[Chickat]

New blizzard game announced. Small like Hearthstone. Could be a warcraft 3 remake or something similar. Releasing First half 2019.
WoW patches 8.2-8.3 talked about like at Legion release years Blizzcon.
Diablo 4 announced. 2020 game.
Hearthstone Expansion announced.
Hots stuff announced.
Overwatch stuff announced. Something that surprises us here I'm thinking.
WoW classic beta announced for first half 2019.
Band is 21 Pilots.

[Cosmic Janitor]

Also my new crazy idea:
New Warcraft game (either RTS or CRPG) that is set on AU Draenor. Orcs vs Draenei.

Most of the RTS fans would probably wonder why the orcs fight the protos now and why this shit exists

As for overwatch, there will be lots of masturbatory selfservice for their league I'm sure.

Nothing interesting will happen, except maybe a Classic update. Hopefully no Vulpera.

dude Vulpera will be the main attaction - and i bet it will be like 50$ shop class

whenever i read that it always baffles me ?

what anouncements can be made for 15 year old shit besides the date servers will open ?

[kronides]

I don't think WoW will be the centerpiece this year, though of course it will be represented. Some stuff on upcoming patches, maybe news on Classic, way too much Overwatch League...but then, any Overwatch is too much for me.

[Notshauna]

WoW: info about Azshara raid, more allied race stuff.
Diablo: crickets
Starcraft: new co-op commander
Hearthstone: Some new expansion/adventure
HotS: 2-3 new heroes and a new map
Overwatch: new hero and a new map
Classic: will get small amount of attention beyond saying they're working on it.

We might hear about a small project akin to Hearthstone/Heroes but, it'll also be designed to be a perpetual money maker like all Blizzard games.

How they are gonna do it i guess? What patch will it start? Will the graphics be the same? Etc etc There is a massive forum section full of people like myself drooling with anticipation like a dog looking at its owner who is carrying a t-bone steak waiting for some news about this!

[TheGrimsey]

They're gonna announce 9.0

[Evilpixel]

I'm hoping for a Diablo 4 announcement where they take the best aspects of Path of Exile and put the Blizzard polish on it.

[Deleted]

WoW:Patch 7.1 and possibly early 7.2
Diablo:hoping for D4 but probably nothing
Overwatch:New hero and map for sure(A new gamemode would be cool too)
Starcraft:I really don't know
Heroes of the Storm:new heroes,skins,maps and events(like the current one)
Hearthstone:new expansion
