A lot of the people here seem to word their posts like, "Oh my god, now people will play bw again, it's going to be just like it used to be again!" Sorry to say but it's not, so I wouldn't get too excited. Few weeks from now, BW (outside of Korea) will be just as dead again as it has been this last month or two. Only it'll be for the long term this time and when SC2 is released it's the final nail in the proverbial coffin. Time to join the herd and move on... BW had it's time and had a good run, but let it go, even Korea is going to eventually.  Anyways, "Several" weeks without SC2... that sucks. Well at least, maybe now I'll get some work done on my Jetski that I need to do before riding season really takes off up here in Montana. Of course though, once I have that work finished, SC2 will be back up in running, lol. ^.^ BW aint going to die, maybe for the first while. In ten years BW will probably be more popular than SC2. Its kind of like timeless classics, which BW is. SC2 is and will be popular but it still hasnt stood the test of time. | ||

I hope this was meant sarcastically ... because Facebook does not improve the game itself and the missing chat channels are a bigger negative than the stupid facebook which is simply a no-cost advertising for Blizzard and SC2. All those kiddies addicted to "managing their contacts" in social networks dont notice how much time they waste with updating their page and reading through the stuff ... which could be spent in real life actually talking to others. In case that wasnt clear: I absolutely hate social networks on the internet ... as if people couldnt do it without the internet, they are just educated to be lazy and then are unable to do it in real life anymore. | ||

Following this guess, I suppose lots of people still waiting for a beta key will get it. On the other side, this phase will be very close to release, so if they realize the servers are not holding, there won't be much time to fix it. Well, we shall wait and see... You're right, if the 'release servers' can't handle the stress of the open beta, they won't have much time to install new hardware in time for the release. I remember when WoW launched, the servers were swamped and it took them about a month to add new servers and get them running stable. | ||
