Next Diablo Class Reveal At Blizzcon?
Blizzard maybe set to reveal the next character class of its up coming RPG at its annual Blizzcon event.
Rumours have been flying for sometime about the nature of the next class, ranging from an Archer/Ranger class, Bandits, Necromancers and even Shapeshifters. The current rumour is that the Archer/Ranger class will be revealed. Blizzard themselves have this to say on the 4th class:
“The fourth class is playable in game but is using a placeholder model — one of an NPC, actually. And all of the skills are what we call “programmer art” because we haven’t implemented actual skill effects. So that one is just in gameplay testing for us while we determine signature skills. The fifth class, we’re just about finished concepting it and are about to start building it. We can’t use placeholder art, so we’re now just going to build a model and start working on the first series of skills for that one. We’re actually spending more time on the Witch Doctor, Wizard, and Barbarian because of a big change we made to the skill system that we wanted to [integrate them] with — so it’s mostly just artwork that’s going on for the other two classes.”
The above extract is taken from an interview with Jay Wilson of Blizzard who also said that the fifth class has yet to be implementated. Blizzcon will be held at Anaheim Convention Centre on August 21st to 22nd.
