Why would they hype a date where they are going to announce that the game is delayed? That makes 0 sense.

I do not understand why it would take 3 years to produce an expansion.


I for one am hoping for some battle net news. Hopefully something good.

Dem american date. I thought " Anouncement of a October announcement, really ? "

My guess is delay of hots release. Or anouncement of D3 release date.



not to be a dick but even if it was backwards 9/3 would be september, not october

I doubt they will make an actual release announcement, but maybe something like "HOTS beta soon"


I stayed on the post page atleast 2min wondering if i didn't made a mistake. Damnit.

I really hope they are thinking of HOTS beta... but knowing Blizzard. It'll probably be delayed just as D3 is taking forever to release... I've had the limited edition for D3 pre-ordered for a long long while now..

Maybe they will undo the retarded snipe change.

Still haven't met anyone that legitimately thinks it is a good change.

Blizzard sponsors KT to push them to switch to SC2.
Flash is recruited to SC2 balance team, replacing David Kim.

That would be my guess.

It is a common complaint that Blizzard always takes their time. That's why the catalogue is actually quite small but you can't point at any game and say "That was a crap game". I am happy with them taking their time and releasing another great product.

Other: Blizzard announces there will be just one expansion and after the release they will just focus on getting WoW players back and to their new MMO Titan.

If HOTS is delayed one year I don't see starcraft surviving well. We already are in decline. Sure, the metagame gets more polished but the fans and the low league players will leave. Bnet 2.0 is bullshit and the game itself can keep you hanged only for so much long.

Let's hope it's a positive announcement.

You should speak to people playing other races as well.

D3 release date PLEASE. I think everyone waiting for it would stop the clamoring if we at least knew when the damn game was going to come out.

"Our upcoming expansion to the Starcraft II series, entitled "Heart of the Swarm" which will follow the exploits of the Queen of Blades, Kerrigan, as she reclaims the Zerg once again and rebuilds her power, has been delayed to Q1 2013 in order to facilitate a complete redesign of Battle.net 2.0 and address balance and game design concerns."

Everyone agrees, even the Terrans that snipe was pretty damn godly.

Snipe can't kill a zergling.

You do more damage by a-moving your ghost against non psionic units.

Justify it.

How can they delay it when they never told us a specific date? HOTS is still when it's done, and given that they said at blizzcon that it will be shown at the next blizzcon (which is in 2013) I was sure it would come out that year.
I'm going for hots beta soon aka q1 2013.
