I have high hopes for private ladders popping up very quickly if bnet 2.0 continues to disappoint, so I'm definitely gonna buy it and wait it out.

Dunno if I will buy it. Not for a while at least.

I definitely will wait until they get rid of my real name and email, so I may play in peace.

The game is beautiful, even if Bnet2.0 isn't that amazing, the greatness of the multiplayer will make it a massive hit.

Lol, buy it for sure. It's a solid game, has a cool looking singleplayer and a multiplayer I already know is fantastic and will get even better. Silly question.

Poll is terrible. What if you just don't like the game or you don't have time for it? That's not a boycott.

ahh man, classic. This was my exact view of everyone crying that they won't buy it.


you're an idiot. why would anyone buy the game if theyre boycotting it? if anything i would stick my middle finger at blizz by getting a pirated copy and playing on a iccup-like private ladder

there are several b.net 0.2 emulator projects out right now and its very close to being crapped.

Everything aside, I can't WAIT to buy this game. Even if there was miraculously no multiplayer (somehow), I would still buy it for the campaign. All in all, despite all the let-downs, starcraft 2 rocks. It could be much, much worse. It's fun to play, fun to watch, highly competitive, and has the greatest community on earth backing it. What more could you want in a video game (other than chat rooms)?
good vibes only

not all, but most
take any big game (cs wc3 wow dota cod) all of them are far less global then bw
as i said above, its the natural way how ppl act IF they have the opportunity to stay regional/continental
bw never had the opportunity and was played global, it wasnt a wish from the scene it was a necessity



Sorry, but I do not agree with your statement in any way. I play Computer Games since ages. And I mean literally ages (about 25+ years). And the biggest cornerstone in my eyes was the Internet. Not because of the nice easy money dump which is a huge part of the internet nowadays. It was about the people I met. I played my first MMOG in Diablo I and have met so many people from all over the world. I even have a really good friend since 1997 from Brazil which I'd never had met without "cross realm play". Then I moved over to Ultima Online. I denied to play on Drachenfels but instead I chose Atlantic servers and I met so many nice and interesting people there of whom I call alot still friends to me after all these years.
Games are supposed to be a fun part of life. I don't mind if companies like Blizzard even did a good amount of cash for quality games they produced but I refuse to take on that business model Activion Blizzard is developing for SC2. As much as it broke my heart when I broke off UO when EA bought Origin, I guess it will break my heart to break off Blizzard since they brought me alot of fun in my past. And it's not everything about the game, actually it is less about the game, more about the community.
Look at EA games nowadays. It's an anonymous meat grinding for the most part. The community is mostly (sorry if I use that word) retarded from what you can read in chats or hear on voice.
Gaming is about the fact that everyone is being able to access it and have fun times with people around the world. It's more about global thinking and exchange than business.
I think if Blizzard of old would charge a mere $50 for SC2 they'd have more than all their expenses covered. I would even say they'd be able to run Bnet until the times of our deaths for no extra charge at all. Battle.Net is a meeting point for people. Not only for gaming.

Cheers

People said the same about WoW. And now there are thousands of private servers. Blizzard will try to shut down the famous ones but once the emulator is spreaded there's no chance for blizzard.

I'm buying it regardless of whether I'm satisfied with the things I want changed or not just because I'm a SC fan.
