Those of us hoping that the Second Coming of StarCraft would ship this calendar year are either delusional or unrealistically hopeful. It ain't happenin'. Ensuring that fans won't be disappointed by a Blizzard-famous missed ship date, Rob Pardo tells MSNBC that STARCRAFT IIis not going to ship for the holiday season.
While Blizzard may employ some 2000 staffers, Pardo says that only 40 of those are dedicated to StarCraft II development, the majority focusing on World of Warcraft support. And they plan on shipping no real-time strategy game before its time. Even though the highly anticipated 3D sequel has been in development proper for going on four years, the Blizzard philosophy means we could still be years away from a release.
