Great to hear. I always feel good when I see an interview with Dustin Browder, so it is nice to hear that it is the same in person. Hopefully, Blizzard will just take their time with the game to really top SC.

Great writeup, thanks alot! I really want to try SC2, but it feels like they still have a long way to go before release.

Ehh . . . they are worried that SC2 will be so similar to War3 that war3 players will have the upperhand straight away?

No, you are not.
I don't see why they are worried. Moon always was a outstanding player, with skills, like good mutli-tasking, that weren't really needed or possessed my other players for WC3.

Arghhh. This post is more like a teaser than a news report. Rather than answering questions, it just makes me want to ask more! More posts Plexa!

Uuh, the original guy just 'hates Moon'. He didn't even meant Moon being good and Moon being a WC3 progamer means SC2 is too similar to WC3.

Moon is good at SC2 because he played it a lot. Not because SC2 is too similar to WC3, which may be true or not, I don't know.

pls talk more about the runin with gg.net and sc2gg lol


he was saying that they weren't invited to visit blizzard, not that they arent great guys.


that wasnt what i understood

see
Nevertheless things were rather cordial and the folks from SC-L and starcraft.org were really friendly and great guys. I also met up with the guys from ygosu and pgr21 who were also great guys. There were, however, some notable exceptions from the group that visited including gosugamers.net and sc2gg.


I think he said that the exception relates to "cordial, friendly and great guys", not that they werent invited.

Near the end he wrote also:
but rest assured plenty will be taken tomorrow. In the convention center the 2nd Annual Community summit was held where we discussed issues of the community and whatnot. Rather strangely, the views of TL coincided with some of it's less-than-amiable colleges which I guess shows that no matter what website is involved, we all are trying to make the community as good as it can get.


So i think they were there,

I would like to know also why TL hates GGnet

You guys are off, Moon is probably one of the most talented individuals for playing RTS. It doesn't mean crap that he was dominating in exibition games in a *BETA*, and most wc3 players are not as gifted. Imo.

I'm honestly looking forward to Diablo 3 more at the moment. But that's not to say I'm going to shun SC2. Even if the multiplayer does not become as competetive as BW, the campaign should still be really fun to play. I'm positive Blizzard want's this game to be every but as great as BW is. Besides it's pretty much gauranteed SC2 is going to have to go threw some patches anyways. It won't be perfect when it first comes out.

Moon is an amazing player and I am sure he will be a competitive SC2 player at launch. I would agree that most top wc3 players will not make it in pro SC2 leagues against former top SC1 players, but Moon I think will be one of a few exceptions. It's a huge opportunity to bring the wc3 community and foreigners into the pro SC scene.

It's a really exciting time for fans of e-sports and you are a fool if you would not support the game because players outside of the current pro SC scene leagues would get competition from WC3 players.

Can anyone shed some more light on the sc2 beta key? I've been looking around but I can't find very much info about it.

More specifically, I haven't seen it listed in most news posts about the contents of the goodie bag, so I was wondering if it was in there. It's something I want to find out before I go ebay a bag.

I end up riding past the blizzard complex all the time.

Beta key? well too bad i'm not there. At least that means that sc2 is really close to release, and they're just worrying (as they will for just about forever) about balancing.
