The author of this news you can first of all assure you that we never simply speculating at randomand always have good reasons, which can then be researched carefully before we venture a prediction. Regarding the reasons why Diablo 3 is still no release date, there are the official forums and fan sites on a variety of assumptions, which in most cases, however, are notapplicable. One is for example that the game is not ready for release and is full of bugs. Do not let us say that the quark. If all had gone as planned, we were sitting since 1 Advent before the PC and would happily gamble Diablo 3, while the fresh Christmas cookies is within reach on your plate.

Before we start, a few introductory remarks. The pivotal point of the whole back and forth is the Diablo 3 (real money), auction house, which is otherwise free to be playable on Battle.net gamewith the presented this weekend Battle.net balance the primary revenue source for that. As you know, Diablo 3 is continuing its search for ever more powerful objects a kind of virtual slot machine. Now, since you can buy these items with real money at the auction house and sell isfrom the game, a coin, if also emphasizes how Blizzard always an option again. And youprobably already suspect: Where are coin-operated machines, as does the gambling laws of the countries of the world.
The so-called game testing in the case of Diablo 3 are encouraged not only to examine thecontents of their age serviceability, but also for compliance with the gambling laws togetherrelevant government authorities. Is this gambling for gambling or partial? All this has to be clarified before the game receives the approval and parental controls. In Europe and North America it is so generally that it shifts the gambling assessment at the time after the release, asone can judge the situation here better. It is different from the other hand in South Korea. There,not only generally apply stricter laws, but the assessment prior to release of the game is to take place. Below that is the course of events to date:
Originally the release date of Diablo 3 at BlizzCon 2011 will be announced. According to Internetsources would be the 24th November 2011 have been taking it for just in case a backup date on 17 January 2012 was.
On 22 September 2011 ran a team of C-level Blizzard employees to Korea to deal with the consequences of the GRB and its approval process to address questions regarding the gambling aspects of the real-money auction house in Diablo 3 The Game Rating Board, in short GRBs is, since 2006 South Korea's new game state licensing authority. Ironically, theprevious authority was closed due to an alleged bribery scandal at a gambling-approval (SeaStory).
On the following day, 23 September 2011, Blizzard posted the message immediately "Soon" Was Too Soon - Diablo III to Arrive in Early 2012th A coincidence? Some of you will recall that this message even arrived a day early by mistake on the blog ticker to the public. She was probably already in the back as a precaution because the outcome of the meeting was predictable.
This already indicated that the date of release of Diablo 3 is not on at BlizzCon 2011 21October 2011 would be known. So plan B came into force, the notice of the contents of the Diablo 3 Collector's Edition of WoW and years pass, which you would probably prefer until later - without delay to the launch of SWTOR.
Shortly after the BlizzCon was suddenly postponed the release date of "Book of Cain" on an undetermined date, even though the book completely finished and delivered to camp. Pre Many were totally amazed that the book has now been postponed.
In November, things ran pretty quiet with a few tidbits here and there, almost as if to deliberately withhold information.
On 29 or 30 November Blizzard finally received an update on Korean GRB that we regard the gambling is now in the consultation phase and made a final decision would probably until January. Then came - not surprisingly - a veritable flood of Diablo 3 information:
After it had previously been several postponements, Blizzard announced on 30 November, the "Book of Cain" for 13 December 2011.
The next day, the first December 2011, gave Blizzard announced the global test of real-money auction house in the Diablo 3 beta testers and other invited to participate. In addition, there was suddenly a lot of info pages on items, the artisans (craftsmen) and the series was "A Day in the Life of ..." expanded from three to five employees.
On 5 December posted on the Korean Battle.net Blizzard Blog page an official update to the delay of the game and the status of the GRB negotiations with the reference to January 2012 (see above). Why this news is not published in America or here, you can probably imagine.About the reason why the negotiations have still, one can only speculate. Likely to hold other state institutions to the GRB in the decision, eg Lawyers or gambling investigation bodies.Blizzard fully expects any case with a positive decision by January.
On Friday, the 9th December 2011, presented before the Blizzard Battle.net account balances, and announced this to make in the coming weeks. Amazon.com also has already completed the "Book of Cain" has once again postponed. The new Release date is the 10th Be January 2012.
During the Spike Video Game Awards on Sunday, 11 December 2011, it was because of the pending decision of the Korean GRB no release date for Diablo 3
So much of the current state of affairs. To summarize: Blizzard desperately waiting for the OK from South Korea, is expected to come until January. The Battle.net balance will be approximately the beginning of January. Furthermore, it pushes the "Book of Cain" clearly ahead of him to - to achieve the greatest possible synergy effect - together with the launch of Diablo third Amazon.com is the new date 10th Received in January 2012 last week by the publisher who in turn got this appointment from Blizzard.
If the Koreans are now up to January Potteries, then we should see Diablo 3 promptly to the "Book of Cain" live conceivable would be the 17th January 2012. Since then, there is also no big announcement Traraa in advance (as many claim always so happy) - it will all go blow for blow, because the pressure in the boiler because of the legal "breakdown" and the BioWare competition (SWTOR) currently extremely high. An announcement will probably just before the launch when the OK is there from Korea.
The Worst Case: If the Koreans it OK not to give (up to early January), then there are two options for Blizzard - continue to exist simultaneously on a global launch with real money auction house for all countries or the game (at first) with no real money auction house Korea for launching and trying to persuade the local authority for approval yet. In the first case, the first oneQuarter of 2012, Blizzard will probably forget and try to break point in mid-2012, when the window begins to release StarCraft II expansion, the Koreans get into the boat. The failure also appears, Diablo 3 no later than summer 2012. Since we are optimists, however, and currently just with regard to the annual turnover in 2012 too much depends on the competition, we still typing on a January release, either with or without the Koreans.
