it'll be funny to see all the war3 players dominating the top 20 US ladder spots in afew weeks. Bank on it. At least 90%.

Its the WOW players playing right now that sucks, its no question the War3 players are probably owning SC/BW players right now.

I'm sick of hearing this with absolutely zero logic put behind it.

I think the more intelligent and skilled players will dominate regardless of what game they previously played. How is that a difficult concept to grasp?

maybe i'm alone in this, i don't think it will really matter whether you came from WC3 or SC as long as you came from one of them... What will really matter is, with that background, how much time you put into the game.

Who cares! It is a ton of fun regardless.

Couple interesting changes:

-No lurkers in the beta build
-There is an upgrade that lets Roaches move while burrowed

Now I'm off to test a Tank/Viking build!

The game is good but it feels quite different than SC. combat unravels very very quickly. It is FARRRRR easier to macro in this game than in sc1, even with macro mechanics. Because of this i feel (and this is just my opinion) that micro players will have an advantage in this game.

Currently i feel pretty clumsy during combat situations. i doubleclick/select incorrect units occassionally.. I feel like i need to tweak my mouse speed a bit.

for those of you who are wondering about system specs on the high end (high detail etc)

This game has plenty of graphics potential behind it. I have a pretty beefy machine (dual core running at 3.8 ghz w/ 8 gigs of ram and a gtx 285) and i actually have to lower my settings to get really smooth gameplay akin to what i'm used to in sc1.

You would expect the game to run flawlessly with that set up.

Well It's true people here underestimate war3 players, It's not like every SC player has more potential than WC3 players.... It's totally player dependent

It's very simple: whoever practices more will be the better player. Additionally, I dont see why WC3 skills would be better transferable to SC2 than SC1 skills. Either way, I expect an equal distribution of gamers from both games to be at the top of the ladder. That is, if the progamers don't immediately switch =P.

The beta is going to leak through torrents quickly, so everyone will play. In fact, it already has.
