[Deathshot]

Buying the Special Edition one tomorrow. Can't wait.

 

[Majin_You]

I was going to pick it up on release (ie: today), but I'm deferring that until after I write my exam (August 9th). It'd be way too much of a distraction, I'm sure

If its the plot or setting I can understand..

Why waste your money on WC3 when WC2 did things perfectly well?

I can't speak for all the folks who were eagerly awaiting SC2, but I always pick up a Blizzard product for the campaign first, and the multiplayer second (WoW being an obvious exception). As for those who were in it just for the gameplay and/or the multiplayer, WC3 is not a substitute. The setting is entirely different, BattleNET has been revamped, and it does play differently than either of SC1 or WC3.

Warcraft 3 plays nothing like Starcraft.

 

[Renyori]

^ true . Did you pick up SC2 yet Sub?

 

[Spunky]

I'm 3 missions in. So far it's pretty good.

 

[Phatslugga]

Been playing the online game with friends for about 8 hours straight... totally awesome. Not too great at it yet, but we're getting there.

 

[Shonnie]

It's nothing I would like

Just beat the campaign! Can't wait for the first expansion. (God damn money milkers.. I blame activision)

 

[Spunky]

I don't think there will be any expansions, but you never know. I think they're going to go ahead with just the other two games.

Isn't blizzard always like this? With WoW as well.. All those freaking expansion packs that you have to buy in the shops every single time rather than a fair free download.

 

[Renyori]

I played 3x practice league matches. Raped all 3 of them with 5x their score. Anyone wanna 1v1 for fun?

Making a 30-mission campaign a free download, I'm sorry, is hardly fair to the people who spend time putting them together.

If it were a horse armor pack, I could understand a free download, but the expansions Blizzard puts out tend to be a lot more involved.

What about the simple horse they were selling up ingame? They made a ton of money by it.

Fancy Horse Makes Blizzard $2 Million in Four Hours

The fancy horse costs $25 and offers no new abilities to players, only riding as fast as a character's riding skill will enable it to go.

 

[Brosiris]

Unfortunately I'm horrible at RTS games, so I won't be picking this game up. Though I have heard amazing things.

Offers no new abilities except it's available on all your current AND future characters. Always. Second, it's not content you will "miss" if you don't buy it. Blizzard's not keeping content from people who don't buy it.

Though I'm sure Starcraft 2 is a good game, RTS is not my thing. And the 1-campaign per game decision has really been rubbing me the wrong way. I can just see Kotick's grubby moneyloving hands behind it. *******.

The thing about this, is the fact that you do not need it. It doesn't alter the story or anything. It just gives you a nice little thing to show off and say "Yea I bought it." I mean truly it was a great marketing project that we will probably see more of.
