Will you be playing Starcraft 2?

Honestly, I want to play Diablo 2 again, but don't feel like getting washed back into the boring endless Dueling that takes place in it... But then we have the release of SC2 here eventually, it may be a better options.

I actually feel I can get swamped into this game because of the obvious upgrades, and style of play it consists of, maybe we could even get a guild going together, i'm sure if we got the word out in multiplayer for these forums it would also help out activity a bit, there's nothing really negative that can come from it.

How will StarCraft II be different from StarCraft? StarCraft II will run on a vibrant new 3D-graphics engine that will be capable of rendering beautiful landscapes as well as massive individual units and army sizes. We're also introducing a number of distinct new units to the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg, and even some of the familiar units that return in StarCraft II will have new tricks up their sleeves, which will give the game its own unique flavor. In addition, Battle.net will be overhauled with some new and exciting features to enhance online play and competition, while the campaign will also offer some unique aspects for players who enjoy single-player content. We'll have more details on all these aspects in the months to come.

Will Battle.net be overhauled? Will there be new features? There will be some exciting new changes and features to Battle.net that will help us ensure that StarCraft II will be the ultimate competitive online real-time strategy game. We're not quite ready to discuss those features at this time, but we look forward to getting into more detail in the future.

I know this game has been discussed before, but it does look awesome, and i'm more looking towards maybe to setup tournaments, possible guilds, etc. I'm sure we'll be able to find out more atleast when a BETA is available, along with the game itself.

I'll be playing it, but I don't have high hopes. I highly doubt it will be as good as or better than Starcraft was. I figure, if I keep my expectations low, I won't be disappointed, and it might exceed my expectations.

Yeah, good logic I suppose. The screenshots make it look promising, and the track record with Blizzard has been phoenomenal IMO, so I figure it's safe to have high hopes.

I mostly hope they keep it balanced as well as Starcraft was. That's what made Starcraft so good was the incredible balance.

This game is going to force me to buy a computer at home.

I absolutely loved SC/BW. I was so heavy into SC back in the day. I'd wake up at like 4:00 am, play till noon. Take a break. Start back up around 2 and play till 8 or so. I was fuckin hooked.

I like your idea of a Zelaron guild. There's tons of people on here that played SC, I'm sure the same people would turn around and get SC2. I know I will!

I still play Starcraft.

I wish I could find my disc, i'd be all over it on muh laptop..

Nope. Doesn't appeal to me.

Assuming my laptop can run it, I will play it for fun. Likely single player.

i hope the system requirements aren't too high, i don't know if I would buy a new computer just to play it

It looks like it's running off of the same or a similar engine as WC3. I would expect it won't require much more than WC3 did.

We'll see. I normally read reviews, etc. before I buy things.

if that is true which i SO hope it will be then i am 100% going to get this game

I already paid for it in full.

All that I have left is the wait

Ata' Boy! Jump right in head first and if it turns out good, you'll be the man. I'd play it if I ever got to play a game again.

Any word when they're getting it in Sov?..

I actually just purchased Team Fortress 2 last night and took a good chunk of the night to finish up the 7 gig download, anyways I'll probably play it out a bit tomorrow, got a few RL friends that already play it, so maybe i'll get back into gaming somewhat..

Will B.Net be P2P?

October 1st is the set release date, but it will more hten likely be delayed into early 2009.

I have no faith in blizzard's release time tables.

Hell no. That company is the absolute WORST at doing that. Grrrrr.

Damn, that sucks. I was hoping it would actually be alot SOONER than that. Oh well, I'm sure they'll drop Lich King on us around march so we'll be held over til the end of the year, Rich bastards.
