This game will sell millions of copies. If 500 "no" votes is the best you can do in all your pissing and moaning, good luck making a dent. :D

I don't get why everyone is so hardcore about staying with SC1. I mean, yea the game was fucking amazing, with an incredible skill ceiling. But isn't it time to move on? It's been like 12 years. Updated graphics and physics engine isn't a bad thing. Sure we have MBS and automine etc..but all that does in reality is take away the monotonous activities like sending EVERY scv to minerals EVERY game. In the end i think after 1-2 years when SC2 is balanced we will all forgot about SC1.

Have faith in blizzard xD



I am guessing from your 34 posts that you are not a Broodwar player and that you probably don't see how truly epic playing BW was (I may be wrong though number of posts don't mean a lot)

what I mean is not that new graphics and Automine are bad things.

those are nice additions but the overall game quality has dipped down quite a bit so I don't why move on after 12 awesome years to something of lesser quality even if it has been a while. I am ready for another 20 years of BW if needed

Of course I'm buying it. Anyone who says they are not, I'm going to laugh when you cave after a week.

Wierd. I feel completely the opposite. I feel that SC2 is a completely superior game to BW in every way. And i played BW. Since i was 15. I even managed to get to B- with terran. I'm 26 now and i simply can't wait for the release of SC2. Maybe im the exception? I just love the new graphics..the new units..new abilites..new strategies. Perhaps i was just burnt out on SC1.

heh opinion's differ,


my own belief is that Brodwar 1.5 with hiny new graphics would have been perfect but oh well...

I don't think SC2 as a big E-sports potential( ESPECIALLY NOT ifBlizz goes on fucking it up like the are)

Broodwar is a bit too entertaining to be left for another game in my opinion

if it makes you guys feel any better, many of the crap changes to WoW were actually community driven. Casual community driven, but Blizz still listened. So if you think about it, they are trying, just listening to the masses because well..they are a company and they do like money, nothing wrong with that. So, give it a few months, casuals will just give up and go to the next big thing and our voices will be louder and Blizz will get shit working right. Keep in mind the guys that have been updating BW for the last few years are the same guys making SC2. (notice I didnt say 10 years, I know many of the guys who started BW are gone, but even activision/blizzard guys have been keeping things going for BW). Buy it for the campaign, try to give a bit better constructive criticism (WAH BLIZ NOES NOT WHATS THEY R DOING! does not count...I'm tired of the obvious bitching. Beating a child in the head cuz he cant do math maybe your idea of letting him know he's wrong, but its not helpful), and we'll have the shit we really need (x-realm play is the only important, steam has a great community feel with the same things we're being told we're getting) soon enough.

But there have been no balance updates since a little longer than few years. I think 2003 was the last one but im not sure on this one and too lazy to look through patch logs

I probably won't buy it in the current state, although as I've said, I just might if Blizz redeem themselves. There are currently more cons than pros for me to buy sc2 in it's current form.

People keep saying that Blizz doesn't listen to the community...when is TL going to pull their heads out of their asses and realize Blizz IS listening, you're just the tiny minority. They can't make everyone happy. Chat channels are a huge turnoff for a lot of gamers. Most people just want to PLAY, and 2.0 gets you there faster then ever. I probably spent more time looking for games then actually playing back in my BW days (pre iccup, wgtour etc. And I still can't find games on iccup half the time).

This. Group chat I think will work fine for what we want. Custom games need to be reworked and xrealm, but I want to just click play, find an opponent that will have decent ping, and play. Custom games are for everything else.

ill buy the game, sc2 is good, bnet 2.0 sucks and blizzard is totally retarded for making bnet 2.0 suck that much after getting so many helpful feedback from fans.

But ill buy it, because sc2 is good.

Blizzard is retarded.

you aren't doing any job by boycotting and if you really are boycotting you aren't really part of this community anymore are you? so then what would be the point in posting this... again...?


team liquid is the community of professional starcraft - don't post ignorant shit. plenty of people on this forum are not sc2 fans in any way.

This is a fucking BW community, is it not?

Not buying it.

Agreed. TL is BW and I'm not buying a multiplayer game without lan and chat room functions.

As much as I love swaying these threads towards SC2 hate (b/c I believe BW is superior) I'm gonna buy this game.

I think most people are going to buy the game, they just voted no cuz they are pissed.
