Your vote: Will you buy Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty on release?

(Vote): Yes. I like how the multi-player is shaping up so far.
(Vote): Yes. I don't really like the multi-player yet but I will buy it just for the single-player campaign
(Vote): No. I think the multi-player sucks.
(Vote): No. I think the multi-player is OK, but b.net is missing key features (no LAN, locked regions etc).



I have been thinking whether to pre-order SC2, seeing as the release is soon, or to wait until (if ever) they fix some issues that are bothering me. I am mostly happy with the multi-player part, though it still has a long way to go, however the so-called b.net "2.0" is a huge let-down. My problems with it are the usual: no LAN, locked regions, community segregation, requirement to be online even to watch replays, ranking that makes little sense, no online replays, etc.

On the other hand, I suppose the signle-player campaign itself should be worth the price.

What about you? Are you planning to buy SC2 on release?

Nope. I've barely touched the beta; I doubt that will change much if I drop 60 bucks on the actual game. Personally, I don't think Sc2 has much more depth than a Command and Conquer game does.

Are there really people in this community who would not buy SC2?
I get the feeling that all the people who hate on it (legitimately or not) are going to buy it anyway.
I mean, come on, it's starcraft. Probably the people who voted 'no' don't actually mean it.

...Why buy it if I don't find it a fun game?

This is so true, I'm not surprised that there are die hard fans of SC that won't buy SC2, most people would say "its not SC1", but regardless of whatever reason people choose to support SC2, if they don't like SC2, they won't play it. Right now I really dig it as a spectater sport, its not that bad to look at and a lot of the commentaters are really funny and informative, but i can definitely see why people are already getting bored of it.

the games awesome, its not for everyone, and blizzards trying to give as many people as they can what they want

the sc1 "elitists" that won't play sc2 are the extreme minority

the majority of people that are going to be playing sc2 will still think its too hard.

I'm going to buy it (haven't had to yet), but I do agree, there are some things I don't like (locked regions, lack of LAN, etc). I'm also going to dl a cracked version with LAN, once it becomes available. Not all internet connections can handle multiple copies of the game running through the same connection.....

I just don't think SC2 is a fun game that I'm gonna drop 60 bucks on. How does that make me an "SC1 Elitist?"
