For me its been 5 years I've anticipated this game, and Blizzard is not delivering. Yeah it really sucks  Not buying it either the beta have simply not convinced me (largely cause I'm such a big fan of tough mechanical play). | ||

Do you think you'll just go back to bw? lol I know plenty of people are just wrapped up in the whole boycott blizzard because they're making stupid choices, but lets at least be honest with ourselves. All politics are based on the indifference of the majority. James Reston No Fraidnot, I am not going to buy it. What "everyone" does is up to them. But please try to realize that your indifference to the situation is not a reaction to the situation; it is the very cause of it. | ||

I will buy it anyway, but still hoping for bnet and in-game improvements. Me too! I'm so glad it's 90-95% SC1 in 3d with a few new units and buildings. I don't know why they bothered to change WC2 from two identical races to four completely unique races with a new hero system in WC3. Who doesn't want to keep playing the same old shit after 10 years?! | ||

You guys are right. I was exaggerating. You caught me red handed. The way you play the game changed entirely, what minerals you gather changed, how you gather is changed, your army supply is different and how you provide supply changed, upgrades are a new innovation etc etc. No, I haven't been drinking. There's more to these games than the just the 5-6 units they replaced between games on each race. There's all the units and buildings they didn't change and the rest of the game, that besides a couple macro mechanics, plays just the same as SC1. | ||

I'm gonna go ahead and guess you've never played a single C&C game. | ||

No. It's the main community of StarCraft. And yes, I won't be buying the game if Battle Net doesn't get fixed. To be able to play the game I would need a new computer, and won't be buying one for something as impossibly dumb as the current Battle Net. | ||

I probably won't buy it. It's not a "boycott" of Blizzard as I still have a WoW subscription. I just don't think that SC2 in its current state is a product that's worth my money and time. I'm sure Blizzard will still sell a bajillion copies of SC2 based on marketing hype and past peformance by Blizzard, but unlike millions of people world wide, I've had the opportunity to play the game throughout beta and witness the way Blizzard has (not) responded to the needs of the community. Basically, this game was in its best state 5-6 patches ago, with the hope that they might still make radical changes that were needed, add key features like chat and cross region play, and so on. In the past month or two its gone from a total no brainer "will buy" title to a "Will buy if especially bored" title. Balance has gotten worse, important features have failed to materialize, and the "fresh, new" experience has worn off. In the end, decals and avatars and facebook integration do not matter to me. I want a compelling game play experience, and as far as I can tell, the only way SC2 would provide that to me might be with the single player campaign. I don't really want to drop 60 dollars on a PC game for the single player campaign. SC2 would be worth 100 dollars or more if the game play and the community features were up to snuff, but as it is I wouldn't pay more than 30 or 40. The idea that this some how makes those of us who are unhappy "not part of the community" is ludicrous. The game is not for sale. There are no people who have purchased it, and this is not the "Blizzard ass kissing" forum. It exists for discussion and feedback about SC2. TL.net is a Starcraft community, btw. SC2 is technically a side bar to the main mission of this site, though the mission can obviously change. | ||

I personally think that the UMS games will be hit pretty hard by Blizzard. There are lots of limitations in map sizes, no. of maps that can be hosted by a players and no room names. I do hope Blizzard will address these problems. | ||
