4th Faction possible?

[InpuBot]

I know what you guys are thinking. (Ahh another guy with a 4th race conspericy theory). But its not.

This thread is about if a 4th race would be possible.

I mean we have the psychic alien protoss, the robotic human terran, and the mutated swarming insects.

Tell me how you could incorperate a race without having it too much like the other races

lol You ripped that directly from that Metzen interview.

Of course it's possible. Blizzard made Elves join the Horde.

We could see a 4th faction. It just might not be what we expect, or even want, to see.

Yep lol, i just watched it and it reminded me i have wanted to make a topic on it for a long time.

Hybrid Protoss/Zerg ? Didn't on the sercet mission Zeratul mention something about Hybrid ? I forgot what it is since i didn't play for so long.

Dark Origin had the hybrids... the source of the plot of StarCraft II.

There will be other factions (at least one; the hybrids) but they won't be balanced for multiplayer, on the grounds that balancing them would be difficult if not impossible.

Those are some uneven grounds Blizz is standing on. I'd watch out for logic chasms and mountainous walls of poor rhetoric if I were them.

I want to play a Stargate Replicator type race. Like a fusion of Zerg and Protoss, it would use massive numbers of small, weak units to form larger, more powerful ones.

i mean could there be a race that doesnt conflict with the others

Yes. Incredibly easily.

Balancing is the tricky part, but it's far from impossible.
