I have been waiting 11 years to find out the next chapter in the Starcraft storyline. I would buy the game even if it didnt come with multiplayer.

Well I would buy it for the state of the game, I would definitely not for the state Bnet is in, I think you should consider changing the options in the poll, most of the people are not satisfied with bnet rather than the game

not buying sc2 because of bnet is like not buying a valve game just because steam doesn't have chat rooms.

in the old days we used to use an irc client to chat, and use the game to actually play a game.


This isn't fucking Valve. This is the SC franchize. and SC HAS CHAT ROOMS.


soooo you want a TV DVD PLAYER COMBO instead of a seperate TV and a DVD player of higher quality?

irc will always be better than in-game chat.


the main problem with the new battle.net is that (as far as i know) you can't make a custom game and invite a player from a different server. this will be a huge problem in high level play, tournaments etc. does everyone have to buy the game 3 times to play on different servers?

but a problem like that is so huge that it's only a matter of time before blizzard look into it.

Oh, come on. Is this even for me to decide?
I waited for this game for sooooooo long. Even if Franky laughs at me, like he does, I still HAVE TO buy it. There is no alternativ to this game and there won´t be in the next 5 years.
That´s how it is and that is Blizz knows it is. Suck it & buy it -.-


Idd. I waited 12 years for this game and I really don't care if I can't connect to Asia or US or have chat channels... Still better RTS game than any other out there

I will buy it for SP if and hopefully I will be playing MP after a few patches or after the first expansion.

Sure I'm not happy with the current state of MP but at the end of the day I just can't be arsed to cancel my order,

That's what youtube and wikipedia and spoiler threads are for. That's what I did with Deus Ex 2. I never did play that one, despite Deus Ex 1 being my favorite singleplayer game ever.

if i ever do get it, it'll just be for single player

I find the multiplayer part of sc2 like a chore, I'll continue playing BW instead.

Still, there's something about going through the campaign yourself and fighting your way through the missions that makes the experience so much more satisfying.

As it stands, I'll probably buy all three games just to finish the campaigns and maybe play some UMS on and off if some of my friends are online.

You're obviously one of the new people here, who hasn't played broodwar and just jumped on this site for sc2. Team liquid was a broodwar site longer and more dedicatedly than it was ever a sc2 site. That's why the poll is still 50/50. That's why the front page has next to no announcments about starcraft 2. There's been a recent surge in this site due to the sc2 beta, and I'm starting to get sick of how many useless posts newcomers are putting up. Either rage's at blizzard, suggesting random new units that will never work or happen, posting threads about bnet problems, or NEVER reading the forum outlines.

These 'contributions' are becoming detrimental to this site. It's not a surprise practically 1 in 10 new threads in the sc2 forum are closed within a day.
I aim to become a hydralisk and then stop posting, cause I don't wanna be a queen...

Oh sure, spoiling yourself to avoid having to buy for the story is not for everyone. But *with SC2 as it is now* that's what I'll be doing. I did it once before

I see no incentive to buy the game over simply pirating it. Cancelled the preorder, and even if they fix these issues my eyes have been opened to how they think - I doubt the situation will go anywhere but downhill even if they add chat channels and cross-continental competition now.

lol I think blizz will be monitoring this thread more than the complain threads sadly ;(


Frank Pearce: Looks like people will still buy this game even though we made the game shit and I gave that horrible interview. Maybe I should have let you do that interview instead.

Dustin Browder: I told you I should do all the interviews. I'm like Ali in dodging questions regarding how bad our game is. "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee."

I can't cancel my preorder so it looks like I am buying it. I'm not a fan of the current state and proposed state of Bnet 2.0 as I see it has too many disadvantageous for long term esport gaming. I do have fun playing sc2 even though I see it still needs some adjustments in terms of balance and the entire league ranking system.

Bottom line is, even without the preorder I'd most likely still be at the store on release day, plunking my cash on the counter.

Lol, I love people who are like "i'll pirate."

You're not cool. you've never been cool. Stop trying to be cool.

I'll buy it, because regardless I enjoy the gameplay a lot, and am looking forward to UMS.

On a side note, I'll continue.

Why should game companies care about your opinions if you plan on pirating their game? You'd pirate it no matter what, It's like someone coming into your restaurant and dine and dashing, and then telling you how to improve your cooking for the next time they want to steal from you.

Someone has some unresolved issues with pirates
