Want Now! plz
Want Now! plz
Please dear god let it be so...I am desparate for another warcraft RTS (given that the story, gameplay and world editor are equal or better than that of WC3)
But I think this has more to do with Blizzard DOTA somehow....but one can hope
WoW characters that need/deserve to get killed/punished/otherwise removed from the story: Tirion(dead now), Thrall, Malfurion, Sylvanas(soon?), Jaina, Tyrande
Typical GC. Why are you even quoting him? He's saying nothing. He's excusing himself to get compassion ("we're very busy") and then he's telling you what you want to hear ("it is interesting"). There is zero information in this Tweet. And I am not even angry at him or anything, my problem is why anyone would give this any value whatsoever. It bears none!!
What I think would be cool is to implement an RTS minigame in WoW. Roll out the feature as a major part of a new expansion and just patch in new campaigns as the new patches roll out. Maybe also make some of the missions and/or campaigns unlocked from doing stuff in-game i.e. an ancient troll mission from completing a troll artifact with archaeology or a human (or undead) one from getting an Arathi Basin achievement.
Amount of work it might take might not make this feasible even if Blizzard were to have the same idea but I'd like to think it might eventually be a possibility.
A Warcraft RTS without Orcs and Humans fighting each other just isn't Warcraft, don't even think about it.
We need a new RTS, Starcraft is great. But doesn't mean Warcraft.
I can already picture the intro cinematic dialogue:
"Pandaria was destroyed and every pandaren died... no one cares why". (they don't even get a render of dead pandaren)
"Jaina went apeshit". (Orgrimmar in flames with dead women, children and men)
"Heroes of the past return, real badass heroes, not some chen stormstout bullshit". (see Alleria and Dannath retaking Stromgarde)
End of cinematic, inc Warcraft 4, where you spend the human campaign clearing Azeroth of all Horde and then building beautiful human, dwarven, gnome and Night Elf/ High Elf cities. At some point Burning Legion comes back but Medivh reappears and kicks their ass.
End of Warcraft.
Actually plot line wise they could pick right up where they left off in Warcraft 3. They could tell any of the stories they wanted to if they want to keep in touch with World of Warcraft. Or they could go a whole different way with a new story altogether. I can hear it already "no" ,"that's not gonna happen", "that's a stupid idea" well before you all flip out consider this. The majority of World of Warcraft players don't even know whats happening in the World of Warcraft plot line. Most can't even tell you who Arthas is anymore. This is due to World of Warcraft's nature its never really been about story its for the most part a hardcore raiding hardcore pvping game. So really if blizzard wanted to do Warcraft 4 i doubt most people would mind. Infact i think most people would enjoy going back to a RTS style game situated around story and strategy. Rather then the endless questing, grinding, raiding and pvping. Not to bring WoW down or anything but after so many years i am ready for a Warcraft 4
would be awesome with a mix of wow and wc4
imagine lorewise: what happens in wc4 campaign, happening over a period of 6-8 months in wow aswell, redrawing the map in both games.
and even in gameplay.
a "BG" big as a whole zone, where the NPC's is controlled by players in wc4, and the heroes are WoW players playing normally.
that could be introduced as "scenario 2.0", with each team being able to have 3 heroes for instance. I would atleast find that interesting

isn't blizzard DOTA supposed to have champions from SC and Diablo as well?
Altough I enjoyed WC3 very much and would appreciate another RTS around Warcraft, I kinda doubt that we will see Warcraft as an RTS anymore. Blizzard has SC as RTS, Diablo as an adventure hack'n'slash. Maybe they will make warcraft (not wow) into an open world singleplayer adventuregame like Skyrim? It would be better if they had different kinds of genres among their games.
And one more thing, "Heroes of Warcraft" sounds more of a DOTA game than what we think of.

I was thinking this too but mentioned above, they can squeeze forth more champion ideas from warcraft universe.
