What are you going to do when SC2 comes out? Obviously some people are going to buy it immediately and others aren't... but I'm assuming most of you are going to get it right away or shortly thereafter so I won't account for this in the poll.

Play the single player campaign (139)

Feel free to explain your reasoning. It's still a bit early to answer this question since we haven't even seen everything that should be available during beta... but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Personally, + Show Spoiler +
As someone who was in the beta I'm going to take advantage and get myself into a platinum league really quickly (insert joke about how I'll end up in copper), then check out the level editor! Can't wait to see how powerful it is and I'm praying it isn't extremely difficult to use... and that there is sufficient support documentation. Maybe it will be released during beta in which case I'll change my plans I guess. Also, I will meet up with my sc1 friends who aren't in the beta and show them 'around'.

If I do get SC2, then I will probably play the ladder since my mapmaking skills suck and I am not a big fan of the campaign. Although if it does come out, I am not sure if I'm going to buy it anyways...I'm currently in Beta but I still don't know if I want to play it competitively or not.

Campaign! I don't know about you guys, but I loved the SC1 campaign... I have a feeling I'll beat the campaign before playing that much mp lol

Campaign all the way, on the hardest difficulty they'll have.
I haven't decided yet if I'm going to get CE or regular, but seeing what's inside the CE, I'm leaning towards regular.
I'm not in the beta, but I play vs AI.

Single player mostly, laddering to a lesser extent. Story still comes first to me, no matter how competitive I might be at that point.
I am playing the SC2 Beta, yes.
Normal edition for me only, I don't bite into the "omfgsoveryspecialjust4youedition" crap.
Complete the cycle!

Well, I've laddered a lot in beta... so... hm. I don't know, but I'm looking forward to the campaign a lot. I might just start laddering and save the campaign for a "rainy day".

I'm excited for the campaign. Hoping it will be really fun. And of course I've already had a taste of the multiplayer from beta. So for me, I'm definitely going to dive into the campaign.

Campaign. It's how I learned SC1 and it was a good way to learn and familiarize myself with the game.

Well, I guess campaign is like that.
I hope they have co op campaign too... cuz it'd be fun to turbo newbie it up

Then I guess I'd start smashing newbie souls.

Buy the game and not play it for a while?
seems kind of contradictory if you ask me

I definitely will give the campaign mode a shot first
and in between ladder matches :D

Yeah but people do silly things all the time... I wouldn't be surprised if this turns out to be what some people do.

I'll be headed to multiplayer pretty much as soon as I open the program. I always play the campaigns of games later on. I just can't wait to start playing some games against people. I'll return to the campaign at a later date when I have nothing really to do and a lot of time to waste, so that I can just play it all (or a lot) of the way through.
