Starcraft 2

I hope the game requires new tactics. It'll give me a chance to catch up with those damn Koreans...

Yea, the uber l33t people online (Koreans specifically) were the sole purpose of why I stopped playing StarCraft on Battle.net.

I'm also hoping that this game is much different so that everyone has to basically start from scratch experience and tactics wise.

I always played user defined maps

Like Turret Defense and some of those RPGesque ones.

That's why I loved SC so much...that and playing against the computer was fun.

Yes, well, it's this whole competitive manic obsession that has kinda killed my interest for the RTS genre. It reduces what at first seemed like an intriguing world down to the level of just numbers and bile.

Gah, I dunno, I really am much more 'meh;' abouut all this than I thought it would be. I look at it and know it's going to be all I hate about RTS all over again.

I never play RTSs online anyways... so I'm not really all 'leet' about it

I'm more of a LAN / Skirmish with friends type of player

same, you never kno how someone is playing at home, could be using a hack, some sort of device that gives them an advantage

But that's like every online game.

If it happens, just go to another one.

I also didnt like playing online for SC. I wasnt very good.

If I play online I play my friends, else it's LAN and Skirmish. I never bought a game to play it online. Most games (certainly RTS genre) get abused online. Yes you can end a StarCraft game in under 5 minutes, who gives a crap. It takes ya five minutes to develop the cool units.

cry this is gonna be a long wait, and i say that even if it does come out this year...having to wait at all is bothersome, just looking at how cute the zerglings are makes me wanna play, you notice they do a little jump like grasshopers

This year? Not a chance. The debate will be- '08 or '09?

debate 😕

Yea, there's no way its out this year, I'd say Q4 08 is the earliest reasonable time.

they are still in pre-internal alpha, which means they didnt even get to the point where the developer team tests out the game

I'd suggest getting obsessed with a different game for a while lol.. we wont see this game for at least 2 to 3 years maybe

probably, but still cool we finally know it's coming

I think an year and half from now.

3 years is way too long in my opinion, unless something drastic happens.

Blizzard does take awhile, but they're definitly not Valve, who have released 2 and half games in 9 years.

saw the gameplay trailer on this game, I'm definately downloading it once it comes out!!!

Umm...Do you mean illegally downloading it? Because thats the only way you can "download" a new game. I would suggest buying it, you know...at a store. 🙂 👆

who cares, you a cop? illegally or not i dont give a dam how he gets a copy, the only reason i dont download em is coz it would take me a whole week of internet taken up coz i got a slow connection

Well, we care, as illegal talk about downloading is not permitted here.

+ some games are just ment to be bought, this is one of them!
