Everyone who reads this website will inevitably buy it.

i clicked "boycot" as that would be the less moderate version of

"humm no... i'm not comfortable with b.net 2.0 - sc2 is good but not that good.
definately not worth the 3x 55€ eventually cost, despite expansions being little more than a bunch of UMS/custom maps.
i've waited 12 year - i can wait 1-2 years more for a cheaper bundle and (not or) until b.net has improved drastically"

I might buy the 3rd game if I'm still into gaming when it comes out.

Unless games 2 and 3 are expansions? In which case, blizzard can suck my dick.

Here comes some thoughts from a player which didn't play SC to any greater extent:

Graphics - Great. Not to much eye candy but still enough to make the game pleasant to watch.


I have some problem there personally, the damn unit health/mana bar cover way to much, often I can almost only see the clumping of health bars. People should not have to choose between having huge advantage, or not making the game look bad, that is bad design imo.

I'll buy it no question.

Bnet 2.0 sucks as it stands, but the game itself is damn good.

Petitions are useless, this poll being remade is useless. In short, this post contributed nothing to the discussion, especially with it's biased OP.

Grats for beating a dead horse though

humm i upgraded my GFX just recently: previously, i played with all-low settings, ~20-25 frames and fared (a lot) better than i do now with high settings/resolution.

so.. this might become my quake3arena where i switch settings to low when playing "competitively", putting quite a dent into the graphics argument.

Boycott? Because of the things that are wrong with B.net 2.0? Why? Think very hard about how this will affect your ability to enjoy the game. Also, think about WoW at release. Then think about WoW right now. Blizzard will change the game to suit the players' needs.

tl;dr If you like the game, buy it. B.net 2.0 will get changed.

This anti-Blizz crap is crazy. (1) You'll all buy it. It's a great game. (2) Are you really surprised that a game company wants to make money by selling games and associated products? They make great games in order to make profit. This is how business works. Companies that don't make profit can't invest the kind of resources it takes to make a game like SC2.

You kiddin? It took Blizzard 3-4 months to sort most of the bugs in WoW, from that point they were making the game steadily worse with their expanding 'Raids for the sake of raids for the sake of raids" concept.

This could happen in a LAN game aswell. An easy solution is to not allow observers with bad connections or crappy hardware from observing the game. This should however be fixed in the net code of SC2 where observers should be permited to lag without it affecting the game.

That is complete bs, they games with LAN did sell great, they didn't had to do it so stop making stuff up. You probably think that WOW would bankrupt if they wouldn't sell 25$ virtual horses right? Your main priority is to either make as good craft as you can, and money is necessery inconvenience, or it is the other way around.

I am also not buying the game so stop projecting, kk?
