I do not at all believe we will see beta come next Monday! And I am sure we will all be disappointed come Mondays "big" announcement.

Your probably going to be right about the beta, but still looking forward to hear what everyone who went found out at the meeting.

well, i'm not sure this will break nda, but i'm going to ask anyway. Now, since you can select unlimited units, do you see every single one of them at the bottom of the screen?

I'm not sure if this was answered before.

I think this has been covered in the past Blizzcon and WWI reports, try searching for those (I personally don't remember how many you see - I think you see like 3 rows of units then you have to scroll down, but I could be wrong).

It displays something like 30 or 36 and there are tabs on the left side that you can go through.

But yeah it's been like that forever.

Uh, I'm not sure you are entirely clear on what a non-disclosure agreement is. You can not write one up and assume its legally binding without the agreement of the second party. Think of them as the permission slips you had to get signed whenever you went on field trips in elementary school. Except where permission slips went (more or less), "we aren't responsible for any harm on your child if they do stupid shit", non-disclosures would go something along the lines of, "we'll sue the shit out of you if you talk".

Odds are, Blizzard just got all the attendees to sign the agreement forms they had whipped up before they were allowed to start playing the SC2 build they had available.

So, I've been following SC2 for a long time on this site and throughout development there have been some questionable changes to the game. I think that in the end things will basically work out, but 100% cancel is probably the worst change I've heard of yet. I'm not saying it will be game-breaking and pylon blocks/temporary walls/fake bunkers are fun, but shouldn't these have some cost? If anything, I always thought that there was too large of a difference in forcing an expo to cancel and destroying it once it was up. Of course you still delay it and resources are still tied up for a time with any uses of cancel, but this change seems so unnecessary.

If you all just spend the next few days just playing StarCraft, or whatever, you'll forget all about this thread until Monday and it'll be just like a surprise again!

I'm sure SoG and LR are writing up the perfect news post as is the SC2GG side. We're all trying our best to make it interesting and, of course, we'll be answering questions. Big and Small. Just go take your minds off of it for awhile and come back later.

Here's some juicy news:

Chinese site sc2p.com reported that Chris Sigaty that there will be 40,000 beta testers in each region (North America, Europe, Korea, China, etc.), the total number is nearly 200,000. This news item was just recently removed from the site.

Also, I believe that Monday, yesterday and today are the days people were invited to visit Blizzard. Representatives from sc2p.com are there today. Hence, I will jump to conclusions and say major beta news has been divulged at this conference.

Is it possible that Blizzard will withdraw their NDA after today once all the press has visited?

I don't know if today is the last day.

I can add that the biggest french-speaking fansite is going to Blizzard's HQ today or tomorrow too (he did not confirm, but said something like "I'm not there but I can't tell you where I go" :p).
