Then I'll upgrade to insane just for the challenge (and I am guessing that knowing the map layouts will help tremendously). I agree that insane will not help your multiplayer skills, but for the sheer fun and challenge I will not be able to resist.

Whoever was saying Blizzard storylines are weak is crazy

I always play on the "higher difficulty level" cause if I'm not, I'll just finish the game in 5 hours! It's been like that since im 10 years old and I'm now 28! Too many finished games on my shelf, at least hardest difficulty makes it harder to finish them!

I think that playing in the hard difficulties makes one more aware of the things one must do, and if one can beat many challenges in hard difficulties then MP can also be tackled similarly and thus be "beaten". Playing on hard in any game makes everything not so hard in the end. Such as playing halo with sensitivity in 10000000000 and in hardest difficulty.

A little bump to the thread. Take a look at this awesome new preview. Single Player will be amazing!

Single player for the win! Blizzard's single player campaigns have always been extremely entertaining and impressive, I can't wait to see how the storyline will unfold.

Play SP first and move back and forth from multiplayer; Normal difficulty; HotS; no cheats

Bright light flashes, Raynor fades into focus, standing over the body of an injured Nerazim Assassin.

24 would be awful for Starcraft

Single player for sure, nothing really gets me as psyched for a game as an epic story, and its hard to argue that starcraft isn't one of the best space epics out there.

I will probably play SP on one of the easier levels since I'm really interested in the story and less in the actual game play. For game play fun I'll play MP.

On the Poll where it asks will you chat? Where is the answer for only just before the next expansion is released to refresh on the story?

I'm gonna play through probably about half of the single player campaign before considering multiplayer, but then it all depends on how good the campaign is to see if I switch between the 2 evenly or just focus on online play. Also I'm definitely going to play on Normal my first time through, at least for the first few missions. I want to see what Blizzard is considering to be "normal" difficulty before trying to just jump to harder levels.

without singleplayer.. there wouldnt even be any starcraft game..

Singleplayer is VERY important... and it's alot cooler than multiplayer.. it's just not a competitive game.. it's alot more than just that...

I will wager that the majority of SC2 players are mostly only interested in the singleplayer content.. and will play alittle bit of multi...

I myself never ever played multi in SC and BW... only at the end... i concentrated on Singleplayer and completed that alot... because I find the story one of the most interesting ones ever.. in any film or movie... sci-fi-fantasy wise... it's got it all.
