So who all will be getting Starcraft2?
I personally cant wait!


Im not that big of a RTS fan, but Starcraft1 was one of the few RTS games I enjoyed palying online. But I did have the most fun with the campaigns of Starcraft1 and its expansion pack, so im definatly looking foward to the singleplayer of this.

Are you getting the game? Right away? Later on? Never?

Thought this video of someone making a FInal Fantasy game in Star Craft2 editor was pretty impressive to!

No. I don't like RTS apart from Age of Empires (and Age of Mythology), and that's largely due to historical reasons.

I'll get sometime in mid-August. I have some business far from home and don't feel like buying it on launch day, playing for 3 days and stopping...

Thats the thing! People already have been working on RPGS, racing games,etc.. just from the editor.

I cant wait to see what some people come up with in the future with this editor!

Are those multi-layered zerg the original concept for Broodlords or something? At first I thought they were just a bunch of Broodlords on top of each other, but they are most certainly not. Anywho... Yes I have getting it. I pre-ordered is back when the price was still $50 (yay! for doing it early).

Nope. I'm not paying for a game that lacks a ton of content. I'm certainly not paing 60 bucks for one either.

Lacking in content how? Are people still butt hurt over the expansions announcements? Thats pretty pathetic considering that Blizzard already explained what you are getting in SC2.

Yes its a real question, as you can see there are people already that are not getting it, some that are gettign it right away and others that will get it later.

Not everyone is getting this game, I was interested to see how many where gonna get it and how many not.

To say this game lacks a ton of content wouldn't exactly make sense considering the scale of the SP campaign and the 3 armies avaiable for skirmish/multiplayer and the map editor that is included.

No. I didn't get into the beta and theres no demo so I have no idea how good the game is. I'm a huge RTS fan, but I refuse to fork over $60 for a game Ive never atleast tried.

Maybe. I really don't like playing RTSs online, so if I get it it'll be after a price drop.

I pre-ordered it, but I'm horrible at RTS. Like, really bad. I am probably the worst RTS player ever, if you challenge me to CoH you might as well go afk because somehow I'll still lose.

Still, it'll be in the mail sooner or later. I was looking at some really cool mods, even a remake of Metal Slug in SC2, so hopefully there'll be some amazing stuff. Also my PC is falling behind, hope I can run it well, although it ran okay in beta.

I may or may not, i breezed through the first one + explansion in about a week and, besides the editor, i had no real intrest with game overall. i dont really think the second game i sgoing to live up to expectations and even if it does im probably not going to be playing it any time soon.

It is the same as saying you don't want to get Counter-Strike because it isn't enough of a shooter. It just doesn't make sense...

For those who never tried Starcraft 1 and are not sure if they want to buy Starcraft 2 because you don't really know much about SC 1, I played the beta of Starcraft 2 because my cousins got me a Cd-key. Before I've started to play the beta, I'd never played the first Starcraft and I'd only saw my friend playing one or two times. My only thoughts about this game were: "The graphics are horrible... not for me". I still tried the beta because this time, the graphics are pretty damn good. I've always loved RTS such as Red Alert 2, AoE 2-3, C&C 3, recently in WH 40k: DoW 2 and so on, but the Starcraft universe was all new to me.

People, buy this game. Starcraft 2 is going to be amazing. When the first phase of the beta of SC 2 was closed, I decided to give a shot to SC 1 and I didn't like it at all! Once you've played a recent RTS, it is hard to come back to an old RTS such as SC 1 because the graphics are pretty old and the gameplay is SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. But Starcraft 2 plays 100x better and looks 1000x better. So even if you didn't like the 1st Starcraft or didn't know or play it, it doesn't matter because SC 2 is a totally different experience and it is way better (imo). I can't tell about the Single Player campaign but the story seems very well written and presented with nice cinematics, but the multiplayer was a lot of fun!

BTW, to stay in the topic, I got it pre-ordered and I can't wait to play it! I can't wait to see what kind of mods we will have! (This Final fantasy thing looks cool! I hope it won't be a simple tease!)

sorry for my english...

BUY IT!

StarCraft 1 slow?

It's the only RTS where you actually have to be insanely quick to be good at it...

Mograine

What I mean by slow, is that it takes forever to build a building, to produce units, to move units around. Compared to SC 2, it is slow. (Take note that I've played SC 1 after playing the beta of SC 2... it is normal that I don't have the same feeling about SC 1 compared to the majority).

Pre-purchased it as soon as Gamestop would allow and have the 28th off from work so I can just lose myself in it!

I... Love... Blizzard!

Hmm, nah dont think so. Only Blizzard games I've ever really liked are the Diablo games. Warcraft was ok and I like starcraft, just never loved them. I may get it if my brother buys it also.

No, it doesn't have enough mindless shooting and destruction. And RTS is too complicated of a genre for idiots such as myself to comprehend.

I'll buy Starcraft II day one, the original Starcraft is my second favorite "best rts of all times" and the campaign was excellent. But I'm not sure about the "expansions", it will depend on how good the Starcraft II campaign ill be and the price tags.

I wonder how much of the people that ITT complain about SC2's launch price (not talking about regional inflations) have thought of the game's value.

I also wonder how many of them I will see hyping games that retail at 10$ cheaper yet can offer one thousandth of what SC2 does.

This.

This game is supposed to be bigger than the orignal starcraft + xpac.
