For all the people who were so anticipated in playing this game were you disappointed or happy with SC2 Beta?
I personally like SC:BW much better but that is just my opinion.
When I talked to my friends who used to play SC before they thought that SC2 was going super slow and they should have raised the speed higher, but others who have started playing SC2 are saying that the game speed is too fast for them o.o
Also heard that SC2 is coming out in July 27th. If they are really planning to release the game on that date I think they should really start updating this because there are a lot of things they should fix in my opinion.
Truthfully im quite disappointed with SC2 because I was expecting the game to be better but who knows probably when the game comes out it could be much better than the beta.
What are you guys opinion about SC2? (For the people who have beta)

my opinion is that usage of the search function would make this blog redundant about 40x over

I think there a lot of good things but many bad ideas too.
I have mostly played as P ( started last week, and already ~ 80 games ) so i won't comment on the others races.

I like: the pathfiding, the warp gates, the sentry, the stalker blink, the auto match making on the ladder, the replay features. Protoss being easy mode.

I don't like: the retarded division system, the chat system, no channels, can't change gateway, stupid units ( colossus booo ), no replay with friends, no attack move for air units or hellions ( most of the air units are just terrible ), paper scissor stone system too exaggerated, lack of incentive/units for map control compared to bw. There are tons of small things to change / nerf / fix / buff but that's ok Blizzard seems to be ready to patch the game as long it is needed.

I would rate it a 7/10 i think. Definitly better than all the RTS i have played except bw ( 9+/10 imo ).

If they fix all the issues i have named, i think that the game has a great potential. Maybe not as hardcore and competitive than bw but probably as fun.

fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

I feel that everything is much slower, but that's probably because I have more time to multi task with MBS, auto-mine, auto-surround and whatnot.

Yea i think i have the same problem.

Playing SC2 as protoss in late game is like playing BGH with a multi command and teleport hack.
This is ridiculous but awesome at the same time.

I wonder if anyone bitching here has read Blink by Malcolm Gladwell and the idea of thin-slicing ...

You were probably playing on the novice maps or something as they are set of "Fast" speed, but IMO the standard "Faster" speed is genuinely fast.
