I wish I was as good at BW as I seem to be at SC2.
If I were even in the middle Tier of SC1 players (C-??) I would play it.
But I'm having so much less frustration playing SC2... it's been more fun.

But I think BroodWar is a better game, thus far. By a fairly substantial margin. Just other people got so GOOD at it- very frustrating.

I am sure 99% people who voted NO will buy it. Also BN 2.0 is pretty good, now at least I spend all of my time playing instead of searching for game, party and new friends are cool too. But that is from casual point of view, improvements for, face it, less needed features will come in time.


No, I won't. I'm sure most people who voted 'no' won't either. I stopped playing beta for the same reasons like two or more weeks ago and it's free.

Are you calling FB integration and achievements more important? BNet 2 pretty good? Lacking all essential features?

Of course i'm going to buy. The real question for me is how long i'm going to play and watch.

I will be buying the first game without a doubt. I hate Bnet 2.0 in its current state, but i am hopeful that blizzard will wake up to the fact that its a mess and offers no advantage over warcraft3's battle.net. If they don't fix it - i will not purchase the expansions.

Maybe.. but I'm leaning towards "yes" in case I want to play a new game.

OF COURSE I would buy it.
SC1 had several patches after being released, the game got better and better after every patch, so I would definitely buy it and then wait for patches in the near future if needed.
What can I say, I Love The Game.

Already pre-order it to get my beta and I payed for the Collectors Edition

looks like we have a lot of liars, even though everyone's complaining about everything (there are definitely valid complaints to be made), the majority of people are still going to buy the game.

I can wait 10 years if it take them that long to fix it. I can also pirate SP if I am curious.

I just don't see the point of clinging to this game when its clearly not meeting my expectations. If I need a competitive fix, there's always other genres for me. Fighting games like SSF4 and T6, Quake live or chess online. And yes, I can still play BW.

And to imply boycotting would mean I am trying to put an effort to not buy a game. Which is why people who try are such fail. Im merely saying I dont want to buy it at this state.

Battle.net 2.0 has problems, thats true but this is not like starcraft one where they were stuck to an engine once its released the game can completely change from patch to patch. We will have to wait till they finish the game which will be long after the release.

I won't take part in the poll because I'll get it even though I really don't feel like it.

Blizzard is really tearing me a new one with all that garbage they're pulling off, but I need this game... perhaps I'll find myself playing only the single player and then I'll throw into the dusty pile alongside the rest of the shitty games I've had the misfortune to waste hard-earned money on.....

Guess I'm bound to make bad decisions. With some luck they'll miraculously get their act together and it won't turn out to be that much of a waste of my money. I like to think that at the very least I'll get a better-than-average single player experience... Which certainly isn't worth anywhere close to $60.

Multiplayer is going to be a decent game built on top of a joke that is Battle.net 2.0.... Won't cut it for me, which is good for them. They'll have my cash and I won't clog their server.

A good analogy would be this: Parasitism is a type of symbiotic relationship between organisms of different species where one organism, the parasite, benefits at the expense of the host.

I already cancelled my pre-order. Granted it was a collectors edition and I thought, fuck I don't want to spend that much money on this game. I will most likely get sc2 non CE later on, but who knows. Right now I feel kinda burned out with the beta and have no desire to get back into it.
Part of being mature is to accept your loss.

Are you serious? How long did they take to perfect BW? literally a decade, you need to give Blizzard time and in its current state, it looks just fine

Why wouldn't people just pirate it to play single player, since the only reason to buy it is for online play, the value of which they've destroyed?

I am currently torn between the two choices and might end up waiting until the game can be bought for 10 € in a year or so. Right now I am very disappointed and I certainly wont get the game on release date.

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 -.-

Well yeah. But if this would be the game's current state at release I would be severely disappointed.

If network was like pre-patch 13 then yes, but if the lag and dropping problems continue in the next phase of beta, I will cancel my preorder.
