Nobody is asking you to buy 3 or 9 copies of this to play cross-realm... but if you think u aren't going to buy the first copy then you are sadly mistaken and its only a matter of time. If you don't, then yeah, my bad, I said before that you weren't part of this community. You are part of teamliquid. However, this is SC2 beta section and if you have nothing productive to contribute except for posting a big sign that says "I'm going to boycott" then you should just leave and not come back since the SC2 beta or eventually SC2 section will no longer give you any meaningful experience.

just quoted some thing the op say and reply .


And the sad part is that many people (me included up untill now) agree with that.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
many people dont agree with that

So I've upgraded my PC, I've played beta like madman to learn the game and I kept closing my eyes on Blizzard ignoring community opinion, but right now I'm seriously considering not buying the game.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
why say that you dont consider not buying the game ? right after you say you will buy it . you just say the fact so that many people who curently dont know and you want them to think the way you want them to think . like saying you are like them .

I know it will mean nothing for Blizzard as they will have great marketing and sell tons of copies to casuals,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
think the other way , every people who dont buy the game mean something , seriously this one was funny , you are trying to make everyone think we can do nothing anyway ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
probably even hit some Game of the Year titles, but at least I'll know I did my part in boycotting their attitude.

you have boycot nothing here , btw you can ask blizzard to hire me ?

Yea because customers voicing their oppinions on what kind of services they would and would not like to buy is completly pointless and destructive, especially in a free market based society.
Wait.

Nothing is wrong with voicing your opinion klackon, but they've seriously heard us by now... this is one of many boycott statements... blizzard probably doesn't respond to "oh yeah! i'm not going to buy your game" seeing as they already have a guaranteed customer base...

this game has been anticipated for 10 years...

that people like you who should leave honestly . and im fealing the people who dont buy the game are more part of the community that you . since they remember sc1 and played for many years .

they dont accept everything . im fact that something more hard to do that just buy the game .

seroiusly who honestly won't buy the game as it is now? even if its a pain in the ass to cross-realm and talk to people via party-chat... people will still buy this game...

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...?

I guess if enough people boycott it they will change and then they can buy the game after.

If that's the case we should do it since Call of Duty:Black Ops is getting dedicated servers. So if they hear your voice the first time and can't fix it they might do it the second time they get the chance, Heart of Swarm.

But yeah boycotting in general doesn't have a big impact besides letting your voice be heard again.

Will I buy Starcraft 2 in its current state or in the future: NO

I'm not their cattle. I'd rather play Starcraft than this garbage.



why should I settle for an inferior game on every aspect (except graphics)


Also lol at the people refusing to belive that not everyone shares their fashination with buying shitty services.



look I understand some of you come from FPS or worse RTS and are thinking SC2 is the best game evar and everyone must buy it, but really, we are a community of Brood War players and have played BW for 12 years.

We don't need a worse sequel when we already have near perfection on strategic and mechanical field

so it is actually true half of TL will not buy SC2 for the good reason that Blizzard is treating us like shit


and no I am not lying, I will play SC:BW likeI never heard of SC2 and will be perectly happy and can spend my 60$ on something else

I wonder if Paramore has even played BW for more than a few games (if even that).

why boycotting?
its easy on release-date sit back and look what sc2 have and what not.
than decide for you own: do i want the game or not for the price.
im not sure but i think when they dont change anything i dont buy it.
so perhaps i will look again 3 month later and buy it than, perhaps i just finish this and move on to other games or back to bw. lets see.

Most who vote no will for sure still buy the game even if it came out now... but this can still be used to se how many is unhappy about something with the game.

This. I was never obsessed about SC2 as I wasn't convinced that it will be better then SC:BW, why people are obsessed with the new shit anyway? I only care what is better not when it was released.
