Read This! Very interesting...

[Zerga]

Hello,

I was just browsing throught the Blizzard job openings and I found this job opening: http://www.blizzard.com/jobopp/bn-3dcharacteranimator.shtml

Now, I found this somewhat interesting because the article states "Blizzard North is looking for an exceptionally skilled 3D Character Animator to work on our next new game." Now Blizzard is planning a new game. What could it be? "The ideal candidate has experience animating both human and non-humanoid characters." Human and non-humanoid... that can be like terran and zerg and protoss. "2D and 3D animation is essential." SarCraft was 2d and might be turned into 3d like Warcraft 3. This might be StarCraft 2 or it can be another Diablo game. I really doubt it's a Warcraft game because they just worked on many Warcraft titles. It can also be a totally new world which I hope it's not. Lets hope it's StarCraft 2! I thought it might be interesting to post this.

They can also be talking about StarCraft: Ghost.

I've heard that Nihilistic (the enterprise that was working with Blizzard on SC:G left the project, so they may need someone to do the task).

 

[Zerga]

Yes, but it says "our next new game" .

 

[TrongaMonga]

Yea, I noticed. SC Ghost hasn't even be launched yet, so, it can be considered as Blizz's next new game.

 

[Zerga]

What do you mean hasn't been launched yet? It is considred as a project under development.

 

[TrongaMonga]

I mean that it wasn't, well, released yet, therefore it can't yet be considered a new game. When it gets released, then, yes, I think it can.

Don't know, though, I'm not really aware of the protocols regarding games and whatnot.

Blizzard North isn't the one who made starcraft. They are the Diablo team.

They're going to come out with some new game franchise, and chances are, its going to be like a Diablo RTS....

Now that I think of it, that would be pretty sweet...

LOL Blizzard North was only the team that created the first Diablo, that doesn't mean it's all they've done.

Ever watch the credits on WC2? Blizzard North.

Ever watch the ending credits on SC? Blizzard North.

They're a programming team, they don't have to make the game they could also be working with it.

It probably isn't Ghost since they don't need a another 3-d/2-d programmer. *Prays*.

its mostlikly for Wow or Ghost not Starcraft 2
